    Review Robert Ingalls

    Well Recommended Lawyer!

    Posted by

    Earlier this year, I contacted Ingalls Law, PLLC to see if they would represent me in a traffic matter. Ingalls took initiative and reviewed my case for me. With thorough communication, we came to an agreement that Ingalls would be representing me in my case. I can honestly say that I couldn't be more happy with the outcome of my case. Robert Ingalls did an amazing job representing me and communication with this company was great! He made sure that I new the whole process and kept me in the loop through the whole process. I would recommend this law firm any day! Robert is a very intelligent, hard working lawyer and it was a pleasure doing business with him. I will definitely use him in the future for any legal work! Thank you so much Ingalls Law, PLLC!

    Robert handled a civil matter for me. He was excellent in keeping me informed of my options as well as making sure my best interest were being cared for. Robert is intelligent, hard working, and puts his client first. He definitely handled my case with care and made sure all my needs were accommodated. I strongly suggest using him for all legal needs, he truly is a client first Attorney. Thanks Robert!

    Very Pleased Client!!

    I hired Attorney Ingalls after several failed attempts of trying to collect money that was owed to me after a breach of contract with a business partner.. Shortly after hiring Mr. Ingalls firm the case was settled and I started receiving the funds that were agreed upon. I would recommend hiring the Ingalls law firm to anyone that's having similar problems.

    Unfair moving violation

    Posted by

    My wife has gone over 20 years without a moving violation. She was caught in a unwinnable situation on Tryon coming home from work one night. Short stop a yellow (with cars behind) or roll under it. She chose the latter. The 2 sherif cars that pulled he over (and called her "sir") were not swayed be the short yellow excuse (which it is). She got a "going through a continuous burning red light" infraction. The bill is $268 with court costs and a raise in our insurance which seems rough after both of us have gone so long without infractions. I brought this to the attention of Robert and he was more than happy to take a look even though it's not necessarily his specialty. I brought the paperwork he needed, gave him the info he needed to pull up my wives driving record and he took it all from there. I, or my wife, didn't have to do another thing. Rob was prepared and spoke with the Asst. DA and got the charges dismissed which was a huge load off our mind and pocket. When I spoke with Rob, he was attentive and interested in what I was saying and he was genuinely sympathetic for our situation. We have never had a need for an attorney before and I was unsure of what to expect. I was very pleasantly surprised. Rob also made sure we knew the very minute he had a decision from the ADA. Days before the court date I was at his office and got a chance to see him in action again for another client. He, again, was as caring and sympathetic to that person's situation as he was mine. Rob brings a good light to the profession that is much maligned. He demonstrates attention, caring and professionalism and gets work done. Though I hope it's a ling time until I need a lawyer, I can assure all who read this, it will be Rob Ingalls Law who's door I will darken. A couple days

    Great Firm

    Attorney Ingalls was very proactive with assistance in regard to my case. He kept me informed during the entire process. I will admit that I was skeptical in the beginning because of the distance and me being unfamilar with him or his firm but he was successful in turning my preconceived notions around for the better. I would highly recommend anyone in the Charlotte metro area or In close proximity to reach out to Robert Ingalls and his firm so that you are in good hands.
    Robert Ingalls' response: Thank you for the kind words. We know how difficult legal situations can get, and we're always happy when we can help someone successfully navigate a tough spot.

    It feels nice to finally get a good night’s sleep

    I have always been leery of attorneys and thus I vetted several before hiring Robert Ingalls. Thank goodness he represented me. Robert explained matters clearly and concisely and was along side of me every step of the way. There was always an immediate response from him and his office staff for even my most trivial concerns. If you want a knowledgeable, trustworthy attorney who understands customer service, hire him. Thanks Robert!

    Fantastic

    Mr. Ingalls did a wonderful job representing me on my recent unemployment appeal. I have indeed referred Mr. Ingalls to others.

    Robert was very quick and to the point to help me when I was discharged for a supposed policy violation. Through cross exam, both the GM and the HR rep admitted there was no stated policy. Robert had identified this early on in the case, attacked it swiftly and pointedly, and the ruling was affirmed. I would use him again if ever in need.

    Appeal case for Unemployment Insurance

    Mr. Ingalls was GREAT!!!! I couldn't be any more satisfied with his services!! Everything went smooth, he was very positive and offered continuous reassurance. His Paralegal was amazing as well, just a great experience for me overall!! If I ever need an attorney again, I will certainly contact him for references, and if I ever needed assistance with UI, Mr. Ingalls, would be my first contact!!! I highly recommend Mr. Ingalls, and wouldn't hesitate for a minute to reach out to him again if in need!!!! Thank You, Mr. Ingalls, your positivity and reassurance made me feel much better, and your knowledge and skills in my case was exceptional, I just can't say thank you, enough!!!
