Criminal Defense 100%

I concentrate my practice in criminal defense in both State and Federal Court in the greater South Florida Area. As a prosecutor I tried cases ranging from DUI to Murder. I have gone to trial in hundreds of cases and have almost 10 years of criminal litigation experience. I use that former prosecutor experience to protect your constitutional rights.

Would definitely not recommend

We used Robert a few times for a family member. What I learned is that his level of accomplishment is around 20% or less. The only time I saw any relentless action was getting the advance fee from the family but afterwards, he does not communicate and in fact just always takes the plea deal offer...ed to get the case done but no other work involved. I would definitely recommend getting another attorney if you want someone to look out for your better interests and the ability to achieve.

Would not recommend

I was a former client of Robert and when dealing with him I learned that he does not care about his clients at all. Only thing he cares about is collecting his fee which is not based on hours worked. He makes the client take a plea deal just to get paid while having no concern for the accused and the...ir well-being. Would not recommend.

Terrible Communication from his part

I was recommended to Robert from a group of attorneys so initially I expected him to perform to the best of his capacity yet he had no interest in helping me avoid unnecessary and negative legal implications in my case. Robert acted against my best interests by making me take a plea deal that was unf...air and against the principle of justice. I would not recommend him to anyone at all.

Nah.

Robert failed me from the start. I was doomed from the minute I chose to hire him. From the very beginning I had to do my own research, review my own documentation, attend meetings with prosecutor and gov agents alone. He refers you to his minions, lie-detector and a private investigator who simply m...ilk you more money knowing you are scared. I ended having to plea, because his level of incompetence was paramount. In the end, I did better because of Me and my stellar past, but not because of him. Don’t hire this guy. Choose elsewhere.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
