We enthusiastically recommend Robert Parrott

Robert Parrott of Parrott Law Firm handled a misdemeanor criminal case for one of our family members. He provided us with detailed information before the court proceedings and valuable guidance in making decisions as to how to continue. He was well prepared for the court proceedsings and his famili...arity with the court system provided a tremendous advantage. He always explained what would be happening in easy-to-understand language not in legal terminology. He showed he really cares about his clients. He was compassionate, thoughful, and sympathetic about our situation and the client. He treated the client with respect under difficult circumstances. One of the wonderful qualities of Robert Parrott is his immediate response when you contacted him. Communication is key in any situation, and he always returned our calls, texts, or emails very quickly. Which in this day and age is very imprssive. It brought peace of mind knowing he was only a call away to answer any question. We cannot speak highly enough regarding the knowledge and professionalism of Robert Parrott. We enthusiastically recommend him.

Legal problem solved!

I had a vindictive ex-partner situation. They tried to take me to court for domestic violence, and the court day was days away. I was recommended Attorney Robert Parrott via a business contact. Robert responded quickly, on a Sunday. By Monday afternoon Robert had a defense plan. This made me relax a...nd feel confident about the upcoming court date. Tuesday I was lucky to find a witness in my favor, whom Robert quickly incorporated in the defense strategy. Wednesday was court day. Robert navigated the hearing well. The Judge ruled in my favor!!! I was also pleased with the invoice. Another lawyer had actually wanted double that, as a flat fee. All in all, Robert is real smart and fast, and he fixed my legal problem. And without fleecing me. :-)))

Very Pleased Client

We hired Robert Parrott initially because I was familiar with his name and his family. However, it became apparent right away that he was the best choice for our case on his own merits alone. He has a firm grip on interpreting the law and he was able to assess the situation before him immediate...ly. He skillfully argued what might have been seen as a "touch and go" case successfully, earning a not guilty verdict. I would 100% use his services again.
