THE VERY BEST!
From Day 1 of meeting Rob Perry, we knew we had made the right choice with entrusting our case with him and the firm of Rosenberg, Perry! As an attorney myself, I can wholeheartedly say that you will not find better criminal attorneys. Rob took a tremendous amount of time to explain the law, our rights, and what we could and should expect. It was honest and not sugar coated. Rob has gone above and beyond for our family on multiple occasions and was available more or less at all hours of the day to answer our questions. We received personalized attention and he helped to put us at ease. He and his partners truly understood our situation from the start, knew exactly what we needed, and empathized with us. As former prosecutors, they are very knowledgeable about all aspects of criminal law. Our outcome was tremendous, better than we even expected, and we can't thank them enough. If you find yourself in a predicament, do yourself a favor and hire them!

Thanks for the awesome representation!!!
My husband was facing a felony charge with possible years of imprisonment. I contacted the law firm RosenbergPerry & Associates and Mr. Robert Perry was my husband’s attorney. The experience was comforting in a time of despair. Mr. Perry took time to listen and was always available and responded very quickly with any questions that we may have had throughout the process. You feel like they have your back and are working on your behalf always . We were kept up to speed on every step of the way and he made sure that we knew and understood what was going on with the case as things came up. Within a year’s time my husbands’ charges were dropped and his record was expunged. It was worth the price we paid (they do have a payment plan) My experience with the team at Rosenberg Perry & Associates was one of professionalism and caring. They were very sensitive to our needs and concerns as a family. “I really appreciate the service my family received from Attorney Robert Perry and his law firm (Rosenberg Perry & Associates). Attorney Robert Perry was efficient and had my husband’s charges dropped and expunged, (A result we were not certain of) My family cannot thank Mr. Robert Perry enough for his help. I have since referred anyone that I know who need a criminal defense representation to this law firm. Outstanding and a job well done! “Thank you and forever grateful”

An attorney who goes above and beyond
I had the misfortune of being involved in a case that resulted in a charge of 2nd degree aggravated sexual assault. I was facing the potential of 20 years in state prison. The circumstances that led to the charge were absolutely false, and Mr. Perry and his team saw that the moment I stepped foot in their offices. The team was courteous; communicative; direct; and zealous in my defense. Frankly, Mr. Perry felt like an older brother who’s been down this road several times, and loved NOTHING more than to give his advice on what steps to take and which ones not to. He’s patient and very understanding, and is, overall, a very easy-to-talk-to, affable human being you can’t help but grow to really care for, the same way he grows to care for you! I can’t say enough good things about Mr. Perry and his office. The case was dismissed and my life is back on track. Thank you, Rob! And thank you, Rosenberg | Perry & Associates, LLC!

Quality Service
I was very hesitant upon speaking with Mr. Perry. It had nothing to do with him, but I was dealing with extremely difficult legal matters and my way of life and freedom were in jeopardy. This fear and stress were all eased when Mr. Perry explained his plan to tackle my legal issues. Mr Perry was worth every red cent! He and his legal team handled my case with the utmost professionalism. I left my previous lawyer and took Mr. Perry as consul; hands down the best decision I could of made. If you are reading this and you are uncertain, or you are scared, please rest assured that Rob Perry is your man.

5 star performance leading to successful outcome to challenging legal matter
This review is long overdue. Robert took the lead in my case and gave me confidence throughout that they could successfully navigate my matter through the legal process. Robert successfully achieved a positive result for me. I could not have asked for better service, or a better outcome in this matter. I strongly recommend Robert and Dan Rosenberg's legal team to others in challenging legal circumstances.

Outstanding lawyer, and a genuine person
Let me start by saying that if you are here and reading these reviews, you are doing your due diligence and I am here to share my experience. Rob represented me in a very unusual case where my spouse initiated criminal complaints in the Internationally thereby attempting to take leverage during a divorce. My spouse obtained a restraining order on me in NJ and then there were earth-shattering allegations on me and my family by misusing one of the most draconian laws as weapons (Google “Section 498A” if you are interested). With nothing but lies, allegations and endless money, my spouse had some of the highly paid attorneys on her side to litigate. Rob believed in me and represented me. He went above and beyond to expose my spouse’s litigation tactics to the Judge. He was reachable when I needed him as things in my case were evolving rapidly. He was always on time for all hearings. He even talked to my attorneys overseas to understand how my spouse was carefully laying a trap for a favorable matrimonial settlement by pursuing criminal actions to jeopardize my immigration status. I admire Rob as a person and have nothing with respect and regards for him. He is meticulous about his work and a truly honest and genuine person. He can handle some of the most ridiculous bullies in court with a smile. Let me assure you that you will be in good hands.

Knowledgeable and Responsive
From the moment I met Mr. Perry I knew he was honest and trustworthy. Mr. Perry stood by every one of my requests and guided me through the entire lengthy process. Without the help of Mr. Perry, I know that I would not have had the successful outcomes I have had. He was very knowledgeable and always there to help me ease my stress and answer any questions that I may have even after office hours or late at night. I seriously couldn’t have made a better choice by picking Mr. Perry and his team to represent me and my case. Thank you for all your hard work and making sure that justice was served.

FANTASTIC
I rarely leave reviews, and I never in my wildest dreams thought I would leave one for a lawyer. Yet here I am, astounded at the service that I received from two lawyers. I originally met with Robert Perry over a temporary restraining order that was served on me by my father. My father is in the early to mid stages of dementia; my 2 siblings and I went to check on him after being cut off from all communications. His ex-wife, not our mother, swooped in to help him when he started showing signs of confusion. My brother and I have been helping him for the last few months and have set up full time home care so he was safe. The ex- wife found this a great opportunity to grab his assets. To make a long story short, her behavior was so egregious that a bank attendant notified Adult Protective Services of her predatory behavior. After our welfare check, we were served a temporarily restrained order orchestrated by the ex-wife. Mr. Perry assured us this was the most ridiculous restraining order that he has seen in his career and not to worry. Nonetheless, he took a detailed history of the past ten years, left no stone unturned and prepared for what I thought would be a total BS case. Unfortunately, Mr. Perry was called away for a family emergency and wanted his partner, Mr. Rosenberg, to defend us rather than postpone the hearing. Mr. Perry, Mr. Rosenberg and I met on a Sunday for three hours to bring our new lawyer up to speed on all the minute details. By the way, we were not charged for these billable hours, nor for Mr. Rosenberg’s court time. Surprisingly, the court hearing lasted 6 hours because my fathers’ lawyer was a long-winded pompous lawyer. Because of our earlier prep work and Mr. Rosenberg’s calm cool demeanor, it was a no contest. We won hands down and the restraining order was dismissed. Sorry, expounded a little but I had to, so you know how unbelievable this law firm is. These lawyers are not typical in my experience. They are not lawyers; they are caring professionals that practice law. That is the highest compliment I can bestow upon them. They are a testament to their profession; our world would be a very different place if all lawyers tried to emulate them.

Outstanding Individual, exceptional service.
Mr. Perry was truly phenomenal. When my special needs daughter had an incident at school that required a court appearance, he took the time to make sure she absolutely understand what was going to happen and worked hard to ally her every fear. This could have been a traumatizing experience for her but his confidence and level of professionalism, not to mention his kindness and pursuit of the best possible outcome, made it so my daughter has no lasting worry or fear of a permanent record. I cannot thank him enough for his hard work and kindness towards my daughter and will recommend him and the firm to anyone who asks.

Skilled representation beyond any expectations
Robert Perry is extremely knowledgeable, compassionate, and aggressive about his career and helping his clients. Rob goes out of his way to make certain you are receiving the best representation available. Rob is truly is far more than just another attorney; he is kind, honest, straight forward, attentive, easy to talk to, available when it matters most, confident, aggressive in your favor, and treats you like your case is the only thing that matters to him when you are speaking with him. For my case, I had been in touch with three other attorneys whom all referred me to other attorneys either because my case wasn’t big enough or they lacked the knowledge and/ or experience. During this process, I was referred to Robert Perry. Rob took immediate action and within two business days of working with Rob and Daniel Rosenburg, my case was ultimately resolved… in my favor! To this day, if I have any question I can contact Rob and he takes my call seriously and compassionately. Without Rob and Dan, my experience would have been a negative one. They saved my career and my family. I would recommend Robert Perry to anyone seeking legal counsel or administrative representation!

Traffic tickets
I talked to Mr. Perry a few times on the phone before he represented me in court. Talking to Rob was like shooting the breeze with a buddy, but when it came down to business, he was all business because he knew his stuff in the courtroom. He prepared me for the serious charges I was facing. During court, he was attentive to my questions and concerns and focused on getting me the best deal possible. Being a former prosecutor, he's very familiar with both sides of the law. He knew just how far he could push the prosecution to get me the awesome deal that I received in the end. After my appearance in front of the judge, his contract with me was basically finished. But he took the time and walked me out to the "pay fines here" window and asked if I had anymore questions or concerns. He offered me some useful advice regarding my newly acquired points and told me that if I had anymore questions, don't hesitate to contact him. Although the stupid act that I did to get myself in this situation will never happen again, I definitely would have Rob representing me if I were to receive another ticket.

Excellent Attorney, Professional and Compassionate
We were referred to Robert M. Perry, Senior Associate with Daniel M. Rosenberg & Associates, through an acquaintance for a very sensitive family matter. Having personally worked with attorneys as a paralegal for 42 years, when I met Rob the immediate impression was his professionalism coupled with the utmost caring personality. A rare blend that put me at ease instantly. Throughout the course of his representation (and even after all matters were settled) Rob, Daniel Rosenberg, and their entire staff created a comfortable and open yet highly confidential line of communication. While this law firm is excellent at what they do, they are truly good and decent human beings.

Excellent Attorney
My husband ended up in a precarious situation the day before Thanksgiving (which compounded the situation) and we contacted Mr. Perry. Due to the situation originating from out of state, Mr. Perry was able to contact and ultimately rectify the situation with an out of state ADA. He was extremely professional and courteous when addressing the situation from the moment I contacted him. He kept me abreast of the situation throughout the entire day until a resolution was met. Mr. Perry was one of the most efficient attorneys I have ever interacted with. He was realistic but also confident about the potential outcome of our situation. It makes a difference when you have an attorney who truly understands your situation and has the work ethic to get it resolved in a timely manner. Thanks again for your conscientious and diligent work to get a positive resolution.
