Worst lawyer ever and he just wants your money.

If there were 0 stars I could give I would. All Robert Del Cole cared about is money. He was unresponsive and did not help during my father's appeal. After my father's appeal was denied the only notification we received was from his secretary Kaitlin via email. Robert never returned any phone calls, ...emails, or any correspondence. His secretary Kaitlin would say that she would forward our contact info. yet we still never heard anything from Robert. The only time he would contact us was to see when we would be sending him money. He is by far the worst lawyer and my family and I are very disappointed in his services or lack of. I would never recommend any family to hire Robert Del Cole unless they would like to deal with an unresponsive, non compassionate person.

Bob DelCol, the most competant trial lawyer I have ever seen

I hired Mr. DelCol for a "criminal" charge in Nassau Family Court. A charge my ex wife brought against me. Although the charge was bogus, I filed two motions pro se to get the OP and charges dismissed and even went the appellate court in Brooklyn. I was denied by all. I hired Mr. DelCol two weeks bef...ore the trial. He understood the case immediately and took it on for a reasonable fee. I went to trial yesterday. Mr. DeCol did a great job! The Judge had her mind made up that she would find ne guilty and I was planning on appealing. Bob made such a good case and more importantly, something rare in Long Island lawyers, did not allow the Judge to bully him, and believe me, she tried very hard. Bobs confidence made me feel comfortable. His off the cuff knowledge of the law is unparalleled. I was offered a "plea bargain". Most lawyers would tell me to take it but not Bob, he said lets go to trial and if we loose, we will win in the appeal court. If you are considering hiring Bob and you want to speak to me directly to get more info, I am so thankful for what he did, I will post my cell number.

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2005.

Censured issued in NY, 2005

When an attorney is censured it means he or she did something wrong but may still practice law. Typically in this case the lawyer's poor behavior is exposed to the public in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.
