Highly Recommended Lawyer for SLA applications and issues

We’ve worked with Robert Romano both times we went before the NY SLA for wine and spirits licenses. He’s professional, warm, genuine, and has a very good rapport with the SLA administrators and board members. We enjoy working with him and he has consistently delivered with the outcomes and results th...at we hired him to achieve.

Someone Who Truly Cares and Provides Invaluable Business Guidance

I highly recommend Bob for his exceptional legal expertise and genuine care for his clients. Initially hired to assist with a liquor license, Bob went above and beyond by identifying potential pitfalls in a lease agreement, ultimately saving me significant money and stress. His guidance and advice ha...ve been invaluable as I set up my business, offering not just legal support but also strategic insights. Bob’s approach is like that of a caring parent—always looking out for your best interests and ensuring you’re on the right path. If you want a lawyer who truly has your back, Bob is the one.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
