Roger P. Foley

I was getting ready for gym and a man came with a black dodge charger. He asked me my name and he told me to sit down and 7-8 sunrise cops came. Then several police from Stuart Florida came with a search warrant. They showed me some internet pics of what my son had been doing on internet. (Sexual... organs between my son an a girl) . They took all our computers and later he was arrested. I called a lawyer friend who told me what to expect and then I went to the bail bondsman. He recommended Mr. Foley and my lawyer friend told me to go with Mr. Foley because he could do a better job than she could. After meeting with Foley I had very good vibes and hired him. I was not that nervous about prison but I was about my son being a registered sex offender. My wife was upset about the process and what was happening on the internet. Although he was a first offfender she was worried about prison. The anticpation of waiting for an answer from the courts on what would happen was nerve racking. Foley had told us no news was good news and to hang tight and the longer it lasted the better chance we had. On the last day of court we were very please with the outcome. The bailbondsman was right about Foley. Mr. Foley went in front of the judge and we were scared about whether they would take what mr. foley proposed. The sex cahrges were deleted and my son got two years probation for an internet crime of unlawfully using a computer. Therefore his record can be sealed after the probation and exxpunged in 10 years. Nobody will ever know about his sex charges. Once his probation is over for the non-sex case we will seal his record. Our family would highly recommend Mr. Foley to anyone needing acriminal trial lawyer

was charged with carrying a knhife at school which is a felony which means up to 5 years florida prison.I was referred by the bailbondsman. I was very stressed out and my family was stressed as well. I was worried about having a permenant record. I had never been in this situation before then thro...ugh our prayers i found Roger P Foley. I did not at first think i would win the case but then after working with the law office i realized how motivated he was for real justice. I had issues in school with gangs and bad influences. My parents and I went to the school and spoke to the people oin charge and nobody wanted to help me and then this situation occurred. Luckily I met Mr. Foley and guided me thru this case. He guided my parents and I through it and was very black and white about the process of what it was going to take to get a positive outcome. After the depositions Mr. Foley proved that there was no evidence. He then shared with the prosecutor and the prosecutor would not give in or drop charges until we announced ready for trial. The state made me a stupid offer but i rejected it knowing that i had confidence in my Lawyer. Finally, today at the last moment when we were going to trial the state finally dismissed the charges- they finally say the light and the truth. I can now go on with my life w/o a criminal record

In March 2010, I violated probation from a positive urinalysis. Prior to my violation, I had not taken my situation seriously, a naive young-minded position I truly regret. In either case, the lawyer I had at the time, charged me a bunch more money to deal with the violation. I tried calling him to p...repare for the court date, but he was extremely unresponsive and just told me he would talk to me at the courthouse. On the court date, he told me I could walk out of the court the same day and everything would be over, I simply had to adjudicate to my original charge of felony possession of 1 gram of cocaine. I asked him about other options and he said that he could present a case to the judge, but it was up in the air and most likely I would end up in jail for 5 years. I didn't know what to do, and while I was still contemplating, he went ahead with the deal to adjudicate me. He presented paperwork and at that point, I was so confused, I just signed it, believing that my lawyer was making the best decision for me. A few days later, I tried to call my lawyer because I found out my license would be suspended, that I would lose many civil rights, and have consequences that would follow me the rest of my life. When I spoke to the lawyer he told me that there was nothing I could do and hung up on me. I searched around and found Roger P. Foley as well as several other lawyers. Out of 5 lawyers I called, only 2 called me back. The first wanted to charge me a fortune to even meet with me. Roger, called me back after hours the same day I called his office. He was polite, empathetic, and wanted me to come to his office to meet the next day. When I met with him and told him everything that happened, he told me specifically what he could do and was confident he could help. He said that it was imperative we acted fast, as we only had 10 days to file a motion to vacate the order. If I had listened to my previous lawyer, I would have been stuck with a felony on my record for life. Between that time and the court date, Roger was very responsive and spoke to me many times on the phone. On the court date, Roger talked to the State Attorney, pointing out several flaws in the order as well as making a case as to why adjudicating me was an extreme response to a first violation of probation. When the case was called in front of the judge, he asked to go sidebar with the judge (a tactic the Judge thanked him for later). He spoke to the judge and the state attorney together for a while and when he walked away, he gave me a thumbs up. It was at that point, I knew everything would be okay. In the end, my probation was reinstated, my adjudication remained withheld, and my life was back on track. I am truly grateful to have met Roger and recommend him to anyone who needs a lawyer who actually cares!

We needed to find an attorney in Miami to deal with an old criminal charge from years ago that had surfaced involving our son. We were out of state and had to depend on Google, and a short phone conversation with Mr. Foley. We were impressed with his professionalism, he understood our dilemma, work...ed on the case quickly and was able to get the charge dismissed. We were also very impressed with his personal assistant, as she carefully kept us informed on the case, emailed us court papers and was very helpful. We would not hesitate to recommend Mr. Foley.

We retained Mr. Foley earlier this year to deal with a criminal charge against our son that had cropped up from years ago. He knew exactly how to deal with it, did so in a timely and professional manner, and the case was soon dismissed. We were also impressed with the performance of his personal as...sistant who kept us informed, emailed us court papers, etc. We literally picked Mr. Foley from Google, and feel we really lucked out.
