Great Atty Great results
Mr. Cloninger met with my son and helped us with a driving matter. He was true to his word (yes that still exists!). He charged a fair price. Probably more than fair to be honest. He let us know what to expect and answered my questions along the way. Hate to have to need an Atty but will use him again when the time arises. I am a fan. Also only Atty I have ever found with 100% positive feedback. Hire him!

THE BEST THERE IS
I am 60 yrs old and This is my first review EVER! But this guy deserves it so here goes Don't even think about it ,just hire him!! This is the guy everyone wants!! I"m from New Jersey and I got a speeding ticket in November 2018, 95MPH in a 65MPH zone ( automatic loss of license)coming back from his wedding,they gave me a court date 4 months later,which I missed .I Got a warrant ,contempt of court, Loss my NC DL priviledges ,loss of NJ DL priviledges, $300.00 fine and still had the ticket! With one phone call to jane and such a super reasonable fee within 1 week Brian got everything dropped all suspensions reversed warrants vacated,fines dropped and original ticket reduced to 74 in a 65 and a minimal fine! He saved me MORE money than I pd him.And I never met him and he fought like a tiger, him and Jane treated me like family the whole time! I tried to tip him and the staff but he refused, So this will be my first and last review ever, my words to the world is "5 stars isn't high enough" for Brian cloninger just hire him don't hesitate

Top Shelf
I had an immediate need for a top notch attorney and saw Brian for an initial consult..I found a direct & knowledgeable legal Master. He did *not* immediately hit me for cash and hiring him.. Instead I was directed to handle my situation myself.. however, should my situation call for the hire..it will be this man. I'm 58 yo & been around and Brian is 100% straight up. Go see him...

The Best of the BEST
I contacted Mr. Cloninger after receiving a referral, and after hiring an attorney around 8 months prior with no results to date. When the referral told me he was the best of the BEST, boy was he right!!! He was by far the best attorney I have EVER had the opportunity to work with. He handled my issue efficiently (less than 48 hours, WOW), while keeping me advised of what he was doing at all times. He understood the importance of my issue and was always informative and respectful. I simply cannot say enough about Mr. Cloninger. You will not regret contacting him for your legal needs. He is definitely the best of the BEST!

Fantastic help
Brian, was fantastic. I was always worth his time whenever I wanted info or updates. He got my speeding ticket dropped, even with me having one in the past three years. Nothing but good things to say, I would gladly recommend him to someone else in need!

Simply the Best
Mr Cloninger took my case and made it very simple for me. Since I'm from NJ it would be difficult for me to get down to NC.. He assured me that I didn't need to be there. Not only did I not have to come down but he got my case totally dismissed. Job well done. Nothing I can say would be enough to thank him for taking care of this problem for me. I would have to say he ranks in my Best of the Best Attorneys. If you need an Attorney don't hesitate to hire Robert Brian Cloninger.

Excellent price, timely manner
Robert Brian Cloninger was an excellent attorney that saved me the hassle of going to court for me. His price was about $300 cheaper than the competition lawyers. He got my case taken care of in a timely manner after I got him the paperwork needed. I needed him to take care of my traffic violation by the first of the month and as soon as i got him the insurance info he went to court within 2 days. He is and excellent attorney that got back to me promptly when i had any questions. I highly suggest him thank you for looking.

Very Knowledgeable and Very helpful
We came to Mr. Cloninger with a difficult situation in which we didn't think there was going to be any help for but after a referral to him we decided to give it a try. We were already scheduled for a hearing with the DMV which we figured was going to be a waste of time and license would not be issued back in return. Mr. Cloninger gladly decided to assist us. He dug into the driving record and did an extensive research of many charges listed and discovered there was a possible way this could be handled without a hearing. He gave us his suggestion which had us at that point working with multiple attorneys and multiple court districts. He provided step by step instructions on what needed to take place and how. After following his instructions a prior conviction was reviewed and dismissed which allowed a return of driving privilege's without a hearing. After years of dealing with the DMV and multiple attorneys Mr Cloninger was the first attorney that actually gave us an alternative method of handling a lengthy driving conviction record by offering step by step instructions. He saw the big picture that a past was just that a past and that there was a better way to handle the situation. His knowledge of the law and court systems is beyond top notch. His responsiveness is above the rest. I would definitely refer Mr Cloninger to anyone needing traffic offense assistance.

Simply the Best!
Mr. Cloninger put my son's license suspension fears to rest with his caring demeanor and expert legal advice. He listened to our situation, advised us on next steps, and helped us clear my son's driving record and restore his license. He was a man of his word and a true blessing to my family. He gets the job done right, the FIRST time.

Excellent
Mr. Cloninger could not have been more helpful. I'm only 18 but he took care of my speeding ticket for cheap and managed to make it a nonmoving violation and therefore no points were added to my license. He was friendly, smart, helpful, and an all-around great attorney. I reccomend him to anyone with any legal trouble whatsoever. I will definitely hire him again if need be.

Quickly and precisely
You know this wil be my first time ever righting a review inspired by an lawer who help me turn my life around. In permanent suspension statues due to Three moving Violations sence 1982 -2001 Consulting with number of lawers in the Pied Mont. Being hinder from being as productive as an employee as well a father. It was time for thing to change and they did hiring an lawyer in Guilford County a month prior to whom im still awaiting results. And then being notified that I would have to hire another lawyer in Vance County I did one of the Sharpest, precise Lawyer ever Robert Brian Cloniger whom I contacted out of State on around about 2pm June 19th of which I hired to helpe with a failure to appear and speeding 79/65 before 5pm that same day. Not to mention not even given me time to submit fees he had a judge to sign of on them both amazing. Trustworthy,Responsive,Knowledgeable,kept me informed "Serouly". What about Quickly and precisely Robert Brian Clonigininger I just await the opportunity to shack your hand after over 15years I have license.

Great Lawyer
I found this attorney using google while searching for representation to handle an out of state moving violation. as I currently reside in NYC, and I must say it was an absolute pleasure working with him. From day one Mr. Cloninger was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, not to mention efficient in handling this matter. I would absolutely recommend him to anybody in need of a quick and easy resolution to any DMV related matters, truly was a pleasure to work with him and his staff.

Excellent service
After facing a large number of tickets and lost of my license I seek help from a local lawyer. I found Mr.Cloniger to be very understanding and informative. He mapped out the necessary steps to receive my driving privilege back. He also gave me sound advice to maintain my license. Mr.Cloniger was also very patient and put in long hours for my DWI case in which I prevailed.

Amazing Experience
I never imagined after getting myself into a tough situation that I would find a lawyer who would not only make me feel extremely comfortable and keep me well-informed, but would get me out of some really serious charges without making it more difficult on me. I hadn't been in any legal trouble before this incident, and I was very unaware of how things were supposed to work. Brian Cloninger (and his father) made sure that I was kept in the loop, and they also provided really great moral support. I would definitely recommend Brian Cloninger as one of the best. He worked with me every step of the way, and he is currently working on the expunction of my charges. I am so grateful!!

TRUSTWORTHY AND KNOWLEDGABLE LAWYER
Brian Cloninger processed my criminal case, for over a year, which, unexpectedly, resulted in a non-guilty charge. I have dealt with several lawyers in the past. Historically, my experience with lawyers has been unfavorable. I had trust in Brian throughout this process, as he displayed a high level of expertise with regard to mitigating and aggravating factors. When my case was heard, he argued very diligently for a non-guilty verdict and was successful in achieving so. Ultimately, he saved me grief and an extreme amount money. I would highly recommend Brian to anyone who is in need of legal defense.

Shocked and Amazed...
Mr. Cloninger is simply amazing!! He helped my daughter out of a very difficult situation, which I did not think was going to be possible. He is diligent, persistent, and very knowledgeable, and that persistence really paid off in the courtroom. Several serious charges – dropped – and savings of thousands of dollars in fines/fees and other costs – averted. A very professional and well thought-out job!!!
