"Mr. Foley is a smart and gifted trial lawyer. I have watched Mr. Foley try several complicated cases that required months of preparation and quick legal judgments during trial. He usually defends complex personal injury cases with clear liability and horrific injuries and he still wins. If you are being sued or need a skilled trial lawyer in a criminal case there is no one better."
