Hiram Raldiris, Personal injury Attorney on Dec 13, 2018
Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter
I have been up against Roman in a number of trials. He is the ultimate professional. He is both an aggressive advocate and a gentleman. He always knows his case and is very knowledgeable about the applicable law. He is at ease in the courtroom and interacts well with the jury. He is an expert cross examiner and has caused me to squirm during the cross examination of my client on multiple occasions. While I have the utmost respect for him, I would rather see him in the hallways of the Courthouse than sitting at opposing counsel table. He always makes my job harder. I endorse this lawyer.
