I Hired Aston roarke back in November of 2023 for a criminal case that is still pending in court today..I paid him 1500.00 dollars on a payment plan to represent me in court until my trail date if need be. However Mr Roarke caught a criminal case h...imself and was removed off my case by my court judge.. since Aston roarke charges he have failed to reimburse me my money back in which is 1,500.00 dollars...And my case is still active in criminal court...And I believe his case is still active in criminal court as well..I want my money sir..

Top Notch! He changed my opinion of lawyers!

I am not a fan of lawyers, but Roarke Aston completely changed my opinion. He was calm, confident, and knowledgeable. I hired Roarke for a legal matter I was going to handle on my own but I could not be happier with the outcome. Roarke’s communication skills are top notch; he answered all of my qu...estions and kept me informed throughout the entire legal procedure. Roarke goes above and beyond for his clients and you will not be disappointed with his performance. He knows the law, he knows when to be aggressive, he knows when to be calm. I highly recommend Roarke.

Amazing lawyer

Roarke was an outstanding lawyer who not only did he put mind at ease and made the whole experience stressless and painless. Not only did he win my case but he did it quickly. I can not stress enough how amazing my experience was.

Outstanding performance

I was sued for a debt worth thousands of Dollars. I contacted Roarke Aston, and he the case. In the end I only had to pay back $400 in five installments. Roarke was punctual, courteous, friendly, and professional. If you need legal representation or advice, utilize his talent; you'd be glad you did.
