Extremely Amazing Lawyer

I am amazed with the quality and performance of Robert. He helped with two cases. He saved my life twice. He was very informative. Overall he is an amazing lawyer.

SIMPLY STATED: HE IS THE BEST ATTORNEY BY FAR

I reached out to Mr. Pentangelo in despair and a feeling of defeat. I was issued a DWI in a nearby town of the New Brunswick area (not in New Brunswick). Anyway, from beginning to end, Mr. Pentangelo was cautious (as one would need to be in a very small, tight knit town. Plus, I has several EXTRAORDI...NARY circumstances involving my case). Bottom line is...HE WON MY CASE. He is by far the most meticulous, strategic thinking attorney I know. And, if anyone has ever dealt with attorney’s (which I have dealt with them in “needed” situations, as well as having several friends in the field of practice), one would know that Mr. Pentangelo is not only Professional in every sense of the word, Caring, Pleasant-Mannered, Thinks strategically/Meticulously.....but, Mr. Pentangelo is a fighter. HE WILL FIGHT FOR YOU TO THE VERY END. He leaves no stone unturned. He will respect your wishes (of course) if you do not agree with a certain tactic or if you choose to allow your case to go only so far. But, he will encourage and direct you the best way. And, bare in mind, he will fight for you to the end ...BUT, he will he right there with you 100%. He may leave no stone unturned, but he also doesn’t leave his clients feeling emotionally abandoned. This is an important aspect when choosing an attorney. With him, you never have to wonder about ANYTHING. HE HAS IT ALL UNDER CONTROL, and assured you of this, as well as informs you if anything is not going in the direction he had hoped for. He does all this knowing it may be more work on his part....but he’s always ready to “push back”. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND MR. PENTANGELO, ESQ. Don’t be foolish, hire the BEST. And, that he is!!!! Debbie

Worse than a high pressure car salesman

Strings you along for several days and then wants a huge retainer $10k, that the average person doesn't just have sitting in their bank. If you don't have it, forget this guy..he will waste your time. Find someone that cares about your case, not just your bank account!

If you don’t hire him , YOUR LOSS!!!!!!

Well where do I start. First I would like to give you specific details on his personality . He is CARING, FUNNY, SMART, PROFESSIONAL, and a BULLDOG in court. He fought for me to the very end. He has this way of calming me down (being that I have major anxiety). I have never met a lawyer like him. Mr.... Pentangelo is heaven sent. I would probably be in jail if it weren’t for him. I literally trust him with my life. He stuck by my side assuring me everyday that he would fight for me no matter what it took. I must say, he kept his word! God brought him into my life for a reason and I’m so glad HE DID! I can never repay him for EVERYTHING she has done for me! I recommend him to EVERYONE I KNOW! If you don’t hire him as a lawyer then it’s a big mistake on your part. Thank you Robert! You are my HERO!

Robert will go the extra mile for you!

Robert's expertise within my case was prevalent from the first time we met. He always put my needs as a client first and was more than flexible in setting up meetings or answering questions that I had about my case. I plan to refer him to all of my friends/family should the opportunity present itself.... Thank you for all of your hard work!

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.
