Couldn’t ask for better representation!
Mr. Bryan is absolutely the best! We have trusted him with our son’s case over the last 18 months, and he has exceeded every expectation we’ve had. In the courtroom, Mr. Bryan is prepared, confident and knowledgeable. He was in constant communication with us every step of the way. If you have ANY legal issues, needing an attorney, you will never go wrong with Mr. Bryan. We thank him from the bottom of our hearts!

Family Law Attorney
Honestly, I would’ve rated Robert V. Bryan Jr. 10 stars if I could. 5 stars is NOT enough... Hands down one of the best referrals I’ve ever had! Not only is he an amazing criminal defense lawyer but an AWESOME family law attorney! He was very professional, knowledgeable and 100% dedicated to my case. Mr. Bryan was very much invested in the wellbeing of my daughter and my concerns as a father. His effective representation WON my case!!!! I would most certainly hire him again!

Excellent Service
I shall never forget when my son was being targeted by local law enforcement and maliciously charged criminally while serving as a member of the armed forces. I needed a lawyer who was qualified, able to get positive results, and was trustworthy. The first name that came to mind was Mr. Bryan and his firm. Mr. Bryan not only took on the case, but all charges were dismissed. I would gladly recommend Mr. Bryan to all of my friends and family.

Best Lawyer Around !
Mr Bryan helped me with my case that stemmed from 2020 where I was being charged with shooting into an occupied building which is a felony. He was very communicative throughout the whole process and answered any questions I had . He was able to get my charges dropped to a misdemeanor with no jail time !

Did not let me down!
Bobby met with me a few months ago and we discussed my case. He told me that he would do everything in his power to get the best possible outcome and sure did not let me down. He is a great guy and I would totally recommend him to anyone

Does the best he can with the case
I was charged with two felonies and I needed a lawyer and was recommended to go to Mr. Bryan. After 8 months and a lot of struggles, he managed to get one of the charges dropped and was able to get a deferred disposition for the second one, giving me a chance to fix my mistakes and go past this ordeal without a felony on my record. He was communicable throughout the process and from the moment he contacted me on the jail phone I knew he was going to be a competent lawyer who knows what he’s doing.

Professional Representation
Mr. Bryan presented viable approaches from our first interaction during the consultation. He laid out the process and offered recommendations while going through discovery on his end. During the day of trial, he presented me with options of how things could proceed and negotiated to get the charges and fines reduced. It was seamless. He and his team provided excellent value at a great rate. I would highly recommend and personally leverage his services in the future should the need arise.

Reckless Driving (104/65)—Amazing Attorney
Hands down a truly amazing attorney. I was written up for 104 in a 65 and I was freaking out. Robert got the reckless driving charge DISMISSED and bumped down to a mere speeding ticket with a small fine of 250. No jail time, no license suspension, no hefty fine. I couldn’t believe it! I called up over 10 of the best lawyers in the area and consulted with each of them. The above outcome seemed highly unlikely if not impossible to them. Robert Bryan stood out immediately. He didn’t make any promises, but I could tell he knew how to handle a case like this. He was confident we’d be able to get a satisfactory outcome, and we got even better. He prepared me for court every step of the way. He and his team guided me through community service, driving courses, and more. We didn’t get the offer we wanted on our first hearing, so we asked for a continuation. I went back and did some more service hours as Robert recommended and took another driving course. We went back to court and completely crushed the case! I’m beyond grateful I hired Robert for this case. I honestly couldn’t ask for better representation given the outcome and how enjoyable Robert was to work with. If you have a similar charge, I can tell you with confidence this is the attorney you need.

No jail time!! Thank God and Mr. Bryan!!!
Having been arrested for a DWI in July of 2021, I was extremely fearful to do the mandatory minimum of 10 days in jail especially because my BAC was .23. I could handle the talk of what other consequences were going to be given but jail time to me was something I couldn’t process mentally, physically or emotionally. Mr. Bryan was direct in saying what could happen in a worst case scenario and a best case scenario. He asked the federal judge for no jail time and instead, home incarceration, and it was granted. $250 fine, 20 days home incarceration, ASAP classes, restricted license, supervised probation for one year NO JAIL TIME!!!! I have no hesitation in recommending Mr. Bryan to help you through your DWI charges. He is beyond great at what he does!!

expectations exceeded
After speaking with Mr. Bryan over the phone, it was clear that I found a lawyer that knew what he was doing. But after my outcome in court, he exceeded my expectations! I couldn't be happier with my outcome! For anyone in need of a lawyer who knows how to get you the results you need, look no further. He is the real deal.

I met him in court while I was attending with my son. I highly recommend Robert because he's honest and he knows what he's doing. I'm so appreciative of him because he gave me good advice even with me being unable to afford his services. And because I listened it worked out for my son. I highly recommend him. Robert, Thanks for what you do. Keep up the excellent work.

131 mph reckless
When I first got this reckless I went to another lawyer i would always go to but he was only saying negative comments like I’m gonna go to jail and what not so why go to a lawyer that doesn’t even try to bring some positivity in the case. But then, i found out about Mr. Bryan after he represented and won my cousins DUI case and from that point on it was a wrap. Mr. Bryan not only keep me out of jail but also helped me still have some type of license for work. I 100% recommend this lawyer.

Great Advocate in the Courtroom
Mr. Bryan represented me on a driving while suspended case and got the case dropped when I was looking at jail time. Having an experienced lawyer, with you, in the courtroom makes a big difference. Sure someone may say that I could have done what he did, but the question is would you have know to do what he did and having that experience with me made a difference. Mr. Bryan was very poised, professional, and articulated my case and circumstances expertly. My only grip is that Mr. Bryan has alot of clients and may not always answer immediately, but why does Mr. Bryan have alot of clients...because he's a good lawyer. Mr. Bryan has a good rapport with the commonwealth attorneys, police, and judges which is always good to have on your side. If your wondering about price...all I can say is you get what you pay for!
