The best ever

I apologize for my English. Mr Romano you are truly the best.. I lost my license on Thursday night. I could not sleep all night. Had to close doors to my small business. I was desperate and didn’t know what to do. I found a number of an attorney that I never use for getting a liquor license. Brat.... I txt him at 5 AM and asked him to wake up for coffee and call me. He did not know me. his name is Brat. I hope I’m spelling it, right. He called me at 7:30 AM and said he cannot help me but he has a friend who handles license : and he will make sure his friends will call me. I was nervous and stressed. Had no idea what is happening that 30 minutes was like a year and that’s when my phone rings. Mr Romano took the time to listen to me and calm me down. And took care of my problem within 10 days and my small business was reopened . This man is truly the best, and I would highly recommend him to everyone out there. He is a miracle worker. Even after he got my liquor license back, he continue to check on me and help me with a few other things that were missing.. god bless his soul and his family. He really is the best . Make the long story short I owe a lot to this man. Hire him don’t even think twice.

Great advocacy and thorough attention to detail

Bob Romano and his team did a fantastic job getting our liquor license in a very timely manner. He followed up on every detail, gave detailed instructions for when our participation was necessary and had the nicest legal assistant guide us through the early stages. Our situation was not straight forw...ard, but the results were and we are very grateful for his expertise and individual attention. Highly recommend!

Best attorney in the liquor business!

We were referred to Bob in September 2020 for a new liquor store license application. After just minutes on the phone, I immediately knew this was attorney that was going to make this happen for us. He knows the SLA inside and out and knows exactly what they’re looking for to get a license approved. ...He gave us real expectations and explained exactly how the process was going to go. Ive heard many horror stories about how harsh the SLA can be, so I was really expecting the worst. To my surprise, after just 5 months of submitting our application we got a full board approval for our store! Bob was always a text or phone call away for the entire length of the process. I urge anyone who is looking for legal assistance with NYS liquor authority matters to reach out to Bob. He is heaven sent and I cant thank him enough! We really could not have gotten that approval without him!!

Great attorney and great adviser

I hired Mr.Robert to move the location of my store,first time it was denied by SLA,Then immediately the same day he filed the case after doing some changes to reconsider, WITHOUT CHARGING ANY EXTRA MONEY. And in the next date,we get approved.I and my family are so happy. He is the best attorney and ...consultant.I will only hire him if I need him in future.God bless him always

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.
