Robert Del Col goes to war for you

Robert was reccommended to me when I was desperate for justice for my son and his safety. After 2 other family/divorce attorneys that were both highly rated in NY by all different publications I got the results that my son deserved from Robert. If you want your hand held (meaning you need a therapi...st) he isn't your guy if you want someone you can depend on someone who knows your case and has a personal passion for every client and their children, he treats you like family. If you want an attorney who is not afraid to fight for you and your childs best interest and who will go to war with you for your childs safety and for your families best interest he is the person you want to stand next to in a court room. He is highly respected by judges and court officers. Other attorneys nay not like him because he probably beat them. Thanks to Robert I have sole legal and residential custody of my son. After moving from California to NY "without legal permission" it is sometihing I was told I would never have. I thank Robert for all his hard work and feel confident knowing he is my corner always!

Delcol is a workhorse

Mr . Del col took over my divorce case when my previous attorney was simply getting pushed around by my wifes attorney even though she had been in law practice for over 25 years and came highly recommended.Mr. Del col took my case days before we were due to be in court and it was if i had him in my c...orner all along. Mr Del col is extremely knowledgable about the several areas of the law but most importantly knows how to apply it. His knowledge and experience really shined through in our court appearances where he was fantastic. He didnt miss any tricks thrown at him and his memmory of my case was phenominal. Onceyou get to know him and his unusaul work ethic it is hard not to appreciate him and all he does.If your looking for someone to go into battle with there is no other lawyer id pick.

If you have a criminal case pending, then you definitely want Bob on your side!

Mr. Del Col represented me in a very complicated narcotics case. From the moment he stepped into the Courtroom, he was in control. Seeing him in Court is amazing. He literally takes over. He is very smart and his trial skills are something to behold. It’s obvious that everyone, including the Jud...ges, like and, most of all, respect him. He works around the clock and never stops. It’s not unusual for him to call or text late into the night if he is working on a motion and has a question. The man is a brilliant, dedicated and highly skilled attorney. In my case, other lawyers I spoke to told me to plea from a felony down to a misdemeanor but with Bob, I beat the case flat out. If I was convicted of anything, it would have ruined my life. If you’re in trouble, this is the lawyer you need. He is an unstoppable force. There is one thing you should know about Bob: he won’t tolerate a whiner or, as he puts it, “no crybabies allowed”. If you start whining, he’ll throw you out of his office. Bob is tough as nails and as smart as they come.

Highly Skilled Legal Representation

Mr. Del Col handled my case in a very professional manner. Whether it was dealing with issues that required writing or court appearances, Robert was more than capable of getting the job done. The work that he has done required focus and commitment. In working with Robert over the course of my case, I... found him to be a dedicated attorney who is passionate about his work. He is an avid legal researcher and an excellent writer. I can also tell you that he is not easily intimidated and takes on each challenge using his extensive experience and knowledge. His understanding and respect for the law and legal process was reassuring and gave me the feeling that matters would be dealt with accordingly and appropriately.

the best criminal lawyer on Long Island

My name is Joe and after many years of being a model citizen i found myself in big trouble and facing 15 years to life in prison.From the moment i met Bob,as i was handcuffed to a table in the basement of the suffolk county courthouse at my arraignment,Bob assured me he was going to do everything in ...his power to keep me out of prison and close to my wife and children whom i love so dearly.From the look in his eyes i knew this was true and Bob meant business,Bob took the necessary time to always make me feel at ease and that everything was gonna be ok.Many nights lying in bed unable to sleep from worrying about where my near future was headed, I would often receive a late night phone call from Bob just calling to check in and make sure i was ok! Amazingly enough it seemed that he knew that I needed a voice of reassurance and he let me know he was still working on my case well into the midnight hour! i was often told by other attorneys and people around the courts how lucky i am to have Bob representing me.When Bob walks into a courtroom the amount of sureness and confidence in his presence and demeanor makes his clients feel the same,this is big.After a year and a half I am happy to say Robert Delcol is a loving caring well spoken family man who treats all of his clients as if they were his own family,I will always be greatful for Bob as i didnt spend one day in prison and i am enjoying my wife,life and children and living the American dream.Bob you are a miracle worker and a wonderment to this world!Thank You!
