Through, professional and responsive

Mr. Seigel handled a traffic matter recently for me. He found an innovative way to persuade the judge to dismiss the matter based on caselaw and prevailing law achieving the best possible result. I highly recommend.

Achieved Best Possible Outcome

Mr. Siegel was able to achieve the best possible outcome in my case. The case presented many challenges and the results could have been very damaging personally and professionally. Throughout the process, Mr Siegel continually answered all of my questions timely, thoughtfully and accurately. I wou...ld highly recommend Mr Siegel.

The lawyer you need and want

Rob immediately got the case information and took charge. He was responsive and explained the options. He worked hard to ensure I was well represented and most importantly, he got the charges dismissed. He worked a hard case where the accuser changed her story and facts. He prepared the case thor...oughly and I would recommend him without hesitation! If I ever need a lawyer, he will be my choice!

Professional, honest and straight forward, Robert Siegel tells it like it is and provides excellent advice and guidance.

Robert Siegel represented me in a car accident case. This was the first time in over 30 years of driving that I had been involved in an accident. I was very scared and did not have any idea of the potential outcome. Mr. Siegel patiently explained my case to me and told me realistically what to expe...ct. He laid out best and worst case scenarios. He never gave me false hope or expectations other than realistic facts. He also helped me with the MVA and provided thorough and honest representation. I highly recommend Mr. Siegel for his dedication to his clients, his professionalism, prompt responses, attention to detail and thorough representation.

Mr. Siegel did a terrific job with my case. He answered all of the questions I asked in person and via phone call and email. In responding, he was prompt, knowledgeable, and never condescending. In the end, he got a better result than I had thought possible.
