Individualized and Attention to detail

I contacted Robert's office following a motor vehicle accident and subsequent charge of OUI. Robert and Greg steared me through the process to the best possible result. They were attentive to detail and were able to ascertain that my case involved a violation of my civil rights. In addition, their ex...perience and responsiveness went a long way towards putting my mind at ease. They were on top of every factor in the case and I can't thank them enough.

OUI Case Attorney

Robert is an amazing lawyer. He takes the time to hear you out while forming his case. He made time to meet in person on multiple occasions, in addition, he is responsive when communicating via email. He would respond on off-work hours as well. Robert’s best quality is his interrogation ability. ...Robert was very aggressive in finding holes in the police officer’s statements while on the stand. Robert was able to get the best possible outcome for me, and I was very appreciative. I highly recommend hiring Robert for your legal situations.

Worth every penny, and affordable. Excellent negotiators on his team...

I made a mistake and reached out to Robert the day after. I was in his office within 4 hours of contacting him via email. The flat rate was affordable and in court I was given a second chance. Every time I had a question I emailed him and got a response within a few hours, usually minutes. He has... an excellent poker face which he presents to the court but he softens when talking to his clients. He really cares about fairness as long as you accept responsibility for your actions.
