Outstanding

Attorney Britt assisted us in navigating through a difficult situation. Rob was efficient, reliable and responsive, helping to calm our anxiety throughout the process. His knowledge, experience and attentiveness to our case was outstanding. We highly recommend Rob.

Outstanding Attorney

Rob provided excellent, professional and caring representation. Beyond knowing the law, he offered compassionate guidance during an extremely frustrating and difficult situation. Ultimately, the charges were dropped. Even though the case was dismissed, Rob made himself available to address follow-...up questions and concerns. Without hesitation, I would highly recommend you hire Rob.

Look No Further - Absolutely Recommend

Over a year ago I made the mistake of getting behind the wheel when I shouldn't have. I was referred to Rob Britt by a friend for my DUI. Rob was engaging from the start and wanted to sit down and get the full story and compare to the police report. Rob is extremely thorough and organized and was abl...e to make the entire experience less stressful for me. I knew right away that I made the right hire when I showed up at court the first time and the staff at the courthouse gave an expression of "Oh, you hired Rob Britt, you're set.". He is well known and respected around CT. I had a very complex case and Rob exceeded my expectations by not only finding some holes in the situation to win the case at DMV but also limit the amount of times I had to appear at court to just once. I was able to text or call him at any time with questions or concerns and he always responded promptly. This was all included in his initial fee, which I must say was lower than anyone else I talked to. A friend also came into an issue, non-DUI related, and I reached out to Rob to see if he would handle. He had them reach out to him stating that if he felt he wasn't the right fit he would know someone that would be better suited. Very selfless and professional act in my opinion. Rob cares about his clients and fights hard for them. Look no further, I ABSOLUTELY recommend Rob Britt for anyone especially if dealing with a DUI/DWI.

A top-notch attorney and advocate who sets the standard

Last year, I found myself in a situation where I needed a defense attorney. Rob Britt was recommended to me through a friend. After calling his office and leaving a message, Rob reached out to me personally. After speaking with him over the phone for just a few minutes, I decided to hire him. His dir...ect and no-nonsense handling of my case placed my mind at ease during a time when I truly needed a professional and knowledgeable advocate. His experience was evident from the start and he worked with me in a manner that instilled confidence. Rob kept me informed throughout the entire process, presenting and achieving the motions needed to resolve my case in a timely manner. Through his advocacy and diligent work, I was granted a dismissal. I highly recommend Attorney Robert Britt if you are seeking the very best attorney for your needs. He more than exceeds expectations.

First Class DUI Attorney

My DUI ( my 2nd) was dropped to a reckless driving. Rob Britt possibly saved my job, because driving my work vehicle is critical. More importantly, Rob is the quintessential professional. He immediately put me at ease with his professional approach and knowledge of the process I was facing. In ad...dition, Rob argued successfully to have my DMV charge reversed. This reversed a possible one year interlock device requirement for my vehicle and 45 day license suspension (As part of the reckless driving charge, I did receive a court mandated 30 day license suspension). I was lucky to have been referred to Rob from a friend who, unfortunately, has been through the DUI process more then myself. Getting Rob Britt's referral changed everything for me and I can't thank my friend enough. I also received a year of administrative probation as part of my reckless driving charge and met with my probation officer. I really knew that Rob had worked hard for me when my probation officer shook her head reading the case and looked up at me and asked "who was your lawyer"? She stated that I did not have a monetary fine, community service, or any other conditions....very unusual. She said I received an incredible deal that she rarely sees on a second DUI charge. Rob only asked that I take steps so that my drunken driving doesn't happen again. I voluntarily entered a treatment center and now attend AA almost every day. My life has turned around incredibly since being arrested. I was despondent and didn't know where to turn. After finding Rob Britt, things started going in the right direction. I have my job and have never been happier with life. It's been an incredible turn-around for me. Rob Britt is absolutely First Class........I honestly feel very lucky that I found him.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
