Exceptional Defense Attorney - DUI/DWI Charges Dropped!

I’m the kind of person who does a lot of research before making decisions, so when I needed a DUI lawyer, this was no exception. I had done my homework when I called Mr Robinson, and after a free consultation, I was convinced of his exceptional reputation. He is rated #1 and I can tell you from perso...nal experience that he has earned this title. Mr Robinson helped me navigate a complicated case that could have resulted in loss of my license and jail time. He walked me through each step of the process with patience, explained all my options, and fought for me and I won my case! I was stunned!! I hope I won’t ever have to hire an DUI attorney again, but if I do, Mr Robinson is the only lawyer I'd trust to defend me.

Mr. Robinson -- Best DUI Lawyer in Maryland

Mr. Robinson literally saved my job when I was arrested for a DUI in December. He and his expert legal team assisted me with my defense and put my mind at ease. Mr Robinson produced critical evidence in court to prove that the police did not have sufficient grounds to arrest me nor had not followed p...roper protocol. Subsequently, I was found not guilty of the DUI offense for which I'd been charged. I am very thankful to Mr Robinson for his hard work and effort. I highly recommend Mr. Robinson and consider him the best DUI lawyer in MD.

The Rockstar of Maryland DUI Lawyers

From the first meeting to the conclusive representation of my case, Bruce and his excellent legal staff (Melissa!) were always extremely professional, approachable, knowledgeable, and immediately there to answer my questions day and night. Bruce's invaluable DUI/DWI expertise, legal skill and aggress...ive courtroom defense tactics provided me with an exceptionally successful outcome -- I couldn't be more pleased. In the event anyone should ask me about legal defense for a DUI, The Law Offices of Robinson and Associates would be my absolute 100% recommendation. Bruce truly puts his clients first and works tirelessly in their defense. He is an amazing person and defense attorney -- I was extremely lucky to have him in my corner throughout this very stressful and terrifying event. I only wish that Avvo had a rating higher than excellent, because Bruce certainly deserves more credit.

Thanks!

Bruce, In May of 2011, I had the misfortune of being stopped in a DWI enforcement area and subsequently charged with driving white under the influence (DWI). I was released from the police barracks under the condition that I would not drive for the next (12) hours. I foolishly ignored the restrictio...n and decided to drive myself home. This resulted in my second DWI within (2) hours. The second arrest caused me to spend the rest of the night in a Howard County jail cell. I thought for sure that everything I had worked so hard to achieve would all be taken away. I was certain that I would have my license suspended and face jail time. I felt helpless during my drive from the police station to my home the next morning. What was I going to do...? That Sunday morning, I began the search for someone who could help me get my life back. A Google search of DWI attorneys brought me to your website. I called the number listed on your website expecting to get nothing more than a recording. I was greatly surprised when you answered my phone call personally. After I explained the situation I was in, you calmly explained a strategy which brought a little optimism to my predicament. Based on receiving (2) DWI's in one evening, I was facing the loss of my driving privileges, employment and income. Not forgetting spending time in jail. As a result of both your and Melissa's knowledge and experience in defending DWI cases, the first charge was reduced to Probation Before Judgment (PBJ) and the second charge was reduced to installing an interlock system on my vehicle and supervised probation. When the MVA still wanted to suspend my license, due to acquiring (12) points, your meeting with the MVA judge resulted with no loss of license and no additional time added to the interlock period. I have spoken with other people who have only (1) DWI. Some of them lost their license for (90) days and were required to spend several weekends in jail. I am very thankful that I decided to retain you and your firm to represent me in court. I want to express my sincere appreciation how you and your firm skillfully handled my defense. Thanks! MS

You saved my life!

Dear Bruce and Matt, Thank you for saving my life.....again! I know that may sound dramatic, but it completely sums up what you both have done for me. First off, Bruce, you got me off the hook for my 1st DUI, and I thank you. That really helped me since I received a 2nd DUI this past September.... I would have violated my Probation and gone to jail if you hadn't got me off on all charges for my 1st offense. Thank you! As for this DUI I was facing, I know, I know... I fell asleep at the wheel and got in a car accident and I was in some rough shape, mentally and physically: I damaged my aorta, fractured my right hip, my sinus cavity, and had a blood clot on my left lung, not to mention all the lacerations to my body. I really thought I was going to jail and would not see my family for a long time. It was a bumpy road for me but you assured me throughout the entire process that everything would be okay; that I was in good hands, which of course I should have known since you won the first go round. When we went to Matt blew the case out of the water! The government, after making all kinds of jail threats, was not properly prepared for the case and Matt shut them down. All DUI charges BEATEN! Thank you to your entire DUI TEAM (btw, you are right, having a DUI team on my case is immensely more productive then the solo lawyer my friend recommended). Words cannot describe my immense gratitude!!! I will repeat- you truly saved my life! Sincerely, AJ
