Robb was great! He was able to get my case resolved with a plea agreement. He did his research and was always prepared at any court hearings. He is a local, knowledgeable, professional, honest, and respectful guy! I would definitely recommend him.
Robb was very helpful helping me with a DUI citation. He has always been easy to get in touch with both at his office and coming to my house. He was able to get me driving privileges so I could be able to drive out of state for an extended period of time. Highly recommendable.

No fuss, excellent result
I was ticketed illegally and unjustifiably simply because I was an out of state driver in Vermont. I contested my traffic ticket and hired Robb Spensley on fairly short notice. He and his firm handled the matter smoothly, for a reasonable fee and got the ticket dismissed.

Speeding Violation
Mr. Spenley saved me thousands of dollars between violations and insurance increases. He got my speeding violation dismissed in court where it seemed to be impossible to do so. He and his team were courteous and kept me informed every step of the way. I reccomend anyone in the vermont area to seek him with their legal matters. Thank you Mr Spensley.

The Country Lawyer
Robb Spensley, Esq. is a professional attorney with a broad range of experience. He has worked on high level, high stakes, and precedent setting cases, and yet he still is willing to take on the mundane traffic violations which are so pervasive in our court system.
I call Robb The Country Lawyer, because he reminds me of the Country Doctor from days gone by... rooted in the community, dedicated to personal service, and easily accessible when you need him. Robb set-up his small town legal practice because that is where he wanted to be. He could have easily chosen to move down-country to practice law, but he is a native Vermonter and he wanted to stay and work here. My life has been shaped by the same decisions and, perhaps, that is why I think Robb and I made a real connection when I ran up against the Law for the very first time in my life earlier this year.
I made some very bad choices that evening resulting in a criminal citation. Choices that, well beyond legal consequences and penalties, would adversely affect my standing in the community, the viability of my personal small business, and my quality of life for the rest of my life.
It was essential that the seriousness of the criminal citation against me be reduced in order for my life to ever repair and return to normal. Robb was able to accomplish this by encouraging me to work hard in terms of reparations which included hours of education and counseling before my final hearing. That work, combined with his expert negotiations with the prosecuting State's Attorney have resulted in a lower level conviction which I can live with.
This has been a horrible year, full of stress, and fear of the future. The system is not done with me yet, but I truly believe that Attorney Spensley's efforts in my case have led to the best possible solution, and for that I am very thankful. Robb deserves my highest rating.
Thanks.

The Accused and Redemption
I was arrested, charged with a felony, was taken from my house in cuffs, and spent the weekend in jail. Precipitating my arrest, my spouse filed a false police report, and then simultaneously filed a contested divorce. I did not know where to go. Attorney Spensley was highly recommended by the legal community, for both the criminal and divorce actions.
Attorney Spensley was dogged in his research for the criminal trial, conducting several depositions with the arresting officers, and the plaintiff. This revealed multiple lies and untruths. He then brilliantly presented the facts in the criminal case. So compelling was Attorney Spensley’s defense, the jury deliberated under an hour. The jury was unanimous in its decision to acquit me of all charges.
Based on the false police report, my ex-spouse demanded over half of my assets in the contested divorce. Again, Attorney Spensley brilliantly presented the facts in the case. My ex-spouse left the court with the assets he brought into the marriage. I left with my assets intact.
It was a harrowing experience, and I was very blessed to have Attorney Spensley on my side.

Fast, Efficient, and Professional
Earlier this summer, I received a traffic violation while visiting my family in Pittsford, VT. Believe it or not - I was pulled over for speeding as I was driving around in the car to get my 4 year old and 2 year old to go to sleep at 8pm. Robb Spensley and his team were tremendously helpful in expeditiously helping to provide me with the appropriate paperwork in order to contest my ticket as well as attend the court hearing on my behalf. He was quickly and professionally able to support my case and provide me with the counsel I needed to take care of my traffic violation in short order.

Trusted and recommended
Due to court errors, my husband was re-sentenced for jail time after being released. Robb was essential to my husband getting out on his original date of release. He filed the motions needed and did all the work for me. All I did was make a phone call to him and he was fast, knowledgeable, communicated well at every step, friendly, professional and was able to answer or find the answer to my every question. I am thankful he took me on as a client. We got a great outcome.

Couldn't ask for a better outcome
After receiving a traffic violation with a high number of points, Robb was able to have all of the points removed from my ticket, meaning I avoided any increase in insurance premiums. I couldn't recommend Robb highly enough. He is a great guy who is very good at what he does, and will work hard to do as much as he possibly can, and more. I would have no reservations in using him again, and passing his information along to anyone I know who needs a lawyer.

Great Guy and Attorney
I am very happy to have had Robb as my attorney. In our case, I was blatantly in the wrong. Robb still somehow managed to amend the charge. Very grateful for his efforts and the outcome. 10/10 would recommend him!
