#1 in The Bronx

I used Mr Laureano 3 different times over a 5-year period. 2 for gun charges and 1 assault. All my charges were dismissed . This guy is the #1 Attorney in the Bronx!!!!

Not knowledgeable on criminal law

He claimed to be a criminal attorney, but was not really well informed. I felt from the beginning that he was looking to make a deal, rather than exonerate his client. He explained there would be a flat fee to represent us, up to a trial, which would then be additional if required. He brought in anot...her attorney ( due to his lack of expertise), which cost additional, separately. He took half the trial fee, then refused to return it when we plead to a charge and had no trial. Stay away.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Having been in practice for 18 years, three of those as a prosecutor in the district attorney's office, Rob is a attorney who would be my first call if I needed an advocate on my side. While he does a fantastic work as a criminal attorney he is well versed in the area of real estate and family law. He is compassionate about what he does and for the people he represents."
