Attorney Review

These lawyers were tremendous. They understood our personal situation, took the time to explain what was happening at each step of our case and worked hard to get us the outcome our case deserved. We worked with several lawyers in the firm and all were professional and very competent. Would highly... recommend this firm.

One of the most Genuine lawyer in the business - Robert Malove

I have been incarcerated since April of 2013 and I am currently serving a 10-year sentence in Federal Prison. Throughout my time in prison. I have hired lawyers from five different firms of which Mr. Malove was the fifth. My prior representation included some of the best lawyers from the Washington D....C./ Maryland area, most of which were only interested in getting as much money from me as possible. I even paid one upwards of $350,000. By the time I was ready to hire a new lawyer to file my 2255 motion, I had already spent over $500,000. Consequently, as one could imagine, I became very leery when it comes to lawyers. Ultimately, I resorted to what most people do when they are at their wits' end, pray. I asked God to direct me to a good lawyer. I had already been locked up for five years at this time. I did not speak to anyone about the decision I was struggling with, to find a new attorney. One day, after attending my regular bible study, the meeting coordinator decided to pray for each of us at the table. When he got to me, he said, "God knows that you're having a hard time with a very important decision and that the answer was on its way." After returning to my housing unit, the guards gave me the daily mail, and in it was a letter from Mr. Malove's firm. Honestly, receiving that letter was a good sign, but I was still a bit apprehensive. My brother contact Mr. Malove's firm and they scheduled an attorney-client call. Naturally, based on my experience with all the other lawyers, my main concern was the cost. However, when I spoke with Mr. Malove, I proceeded to ask him about his fees and he gently responded, "Don't worry about the money, let's look at your situation in detail first." The mere fact that he was more eager to look into my case as opposed to looking into my pockets gave me a deep sense of comfort, and I knew for certain at that moment he was sent by God in response to my prayers. Of course, he would eventually charge me, but it was nothing compared to what the other lawyers charged. I have been working with Mr. Malove since 2018 (around 4 years), and I am still working with him presently. I have to say Mr. Malove, James, and the entire staff have been there throughout the entire with the same urgency and care they had in the beginning. I would strongly recommend Malove and Associates to anyone. Thank you, Robert, for everything, may God continue to bless you and your staff. Prayerfully, Leonaldo Harris.

Excellent lawyer

Mr. Malove was an excellent lawyer. He was obviously very knowledgeable. He kept us informed of any issues and successfully resolved my case.

Domestic violence

As a civil lawyer I know how important it is to get a specialist in the legal area that you are dealing with. When a valued client was wrongly arrested on domestic violence charges and resisting arrest, we hired Mr. Malove to assist him because I do not practice criminal law. Mr. Malove and his ...staff provided above-and-beyond service, explaining the process along the way and providing a sympathetic ear and knowledgable guidance. Mr. Malove was on the phone with us on multiple occasions over a weekend, texting and answering questions. Every time we called him he answered the phone personally and answered all questions. He was knowledgable, compassionate and effective. He not only knew the law, but was able to explain it in an easy to understand way, and also explained the strategy behind certain decisions. I was able to observe him in court and he had a professional, quick thinking and effective demeanor that the judge responded to. Because of this he was basically able to get one of the charges dropped at the first appearance. Throughout the case Mr. Malove remained responsive and engaged despite handling numerous other higher penalty cases. In the end, all the charges were ultimately dismissed against my client because of Mr. Malove's expertise and his reputation in the legal community. There was no doubt in my mind that the prosecutor did not want to proceed on an iffy charge against such a powerful adversary. *Mr. Malove's paralegal/intake person was extremely compassionate and knowledgeable as well, as was his office staff. The intake person/paralegal returned our initial call within minutes and put us directly in contact with Mr. Malove on a Sunday morning. He was extremely compassionate and knowledgable in his own right. * Mr. Malove also worked within the confines of the restrictions in place due to Covid, and worked with the alleged victim (who never wanted to press charges and told the officers they were mistaken in making the arrest) to obtain an affidavit from the alleged victim that lead to the dismissal of the charges.

Excellent knowledge, integrity, authentic, master negotiator & cares about you!

I called Mr. Malove's office on a Saturday night in desperation for help. Mr. Malove's paralegal called me within 20 minutes. Then Mr. Malove called me and we met the next day!!! Unheard of that level of service & care on a weekend. If you are looking for a lawyer that cares, will listen to you, ...bring years of experience & knowledge, secured a better than expected outcome with a staff that is beyond helpful and available look no further. From the minute I met with Mr. Malove he immediately listened to me, provided me with a detailed plan for the best possible outcome (no jail time), always available night & day & weekends as well as his staff. Mr. Malove always checked in with me. helped me understand the legalities of my case. He answered every question, concern and fears that I had. I knew by the end of the meeting that Mr. Malove not only was a master of law but also would have my best interest at heart and not his profit. I will forever be grateful and I highly recommend hiring Mr. Malove and his firm no matter the circumstances. He has a heart to give back to his clients.
