Practice Areas

Federal Crime 25%

Penalties for a federal conviction are enormous. Drug and gun convictions can put you away for years. Even first-time offenders face stiff penalties. As a former federal prosecutor, I know where to look for weakness and how to negotiate with AUSAs.

25%
Criminal Defense 20%

Accused of a federal or state felony, misdemeanor, or violation? Under criminal or regulatory investigation? If so, you need an experienced attorney who is not afraid to fight the government to protect your rights and secure a favorable outcome.

20%
Child Abuse 15%

I defend persons indicated for abuse and neglect on the State Central Registry (SCR). Indicated findings can have a negative impact on your career, reputation, and ability to parent. I will help you appeal and unsubstantiate your indicated finding.

15%
DUI and DWI 10%

Making a mistake does not make you a criminal. Yet, nowadays, the consequences of drinking and driving can be severe, effecting your family, career, and freedom. From arraignment to trial and before the DMV, I will work hard to protect your rights.

10%
Military Law 10%

You worked hard for your reputation, career, and benefits. If you are under investigation for misconduct or sub-standard performance at a Court-Martial, BOI, ADSEP, NJP/Article 15, or MEB/PEB proceeding, I am a former Judge Advocate and can help.

10%
Sex Crime 10%

An accusation of sexual misconduct can destroy your reputation. A conviction can label you as a sex offender for life. I prosecuted and investigated hundreds of sex crimes involving children and adults. I know how to defend you and your reputation.

White Collar Crime 10%

This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Top notch lawyer.

Rob, is by far the best attorney I have ever encountered. He was very knowledgeable, clear, mindful , consistent and understanding. We couldn’t have been any more fortunate to have him by our side during the hardest moment in our life. Rob displayed the upmost determination and compassion many lawyer...s lack. He absolutely takes each case seriously and I wouldn’t want to trust anyone else with life changing moments. He navigated us through some really awful moments and handled our case with a very favorable outcome. I HIGHLY recommend him.

He saved my life in 2 hours

Singer sits down with you and listens to everything that he needs to know while also asking clarifying questions that assures you that he knows what he’s doing. His communication with you as a client is very good, he’s transparent about what is good/bad about your case and makes sure to help you unde...rstand what your options are from a legal standpoint. When it comes to his labor, he is extremely transparent with where your money goes, and is very efficient with the time you’re paying for.

The best of the best!

Rob was intelligent and very sweet. He kept me up to date and helped me every step of the way. I honestly couldn’t have asked for more; it was like having dad by my side!

Above and beyond

Rob has went above by helping me through the last year of my life. I was in an abusive relationship which led to CPS involvement and I needed help. I was scared and broken but Rob stood by my side, every step of the way. He answered every call and text, never leaving me to worry. He fought hard for m...e and because of him, my daughter and I can move forward with our life, in peace. Truly grateful!

Avvo Rating

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.
