He is your best choice!

I never thought I would be in a situation where I needed legal help to fight for my freedom. However, that is exactly what happened to me recently. After making a horrible mistake I was arrested for a DUI. Little did I know the fight I was in for when I was manhandled by the police. As a result, ...I was taken to the hospital and then the legal battle ensued. I thank goodness each day, that I was referred to Roger Foley. He not only assured me he would give this case 150%, he executed. This was no easy win and we were up against very strong adversity. Roger was honest with me each step of the way and went above and beyond to make sure I was informed and to get the justice that we both knew was deserved. If you're in trouble and need someone who will provide you the peace of mind and the best legal counsel, look no further. I highly recommend him and his expertise. Hiring the right legal counsel is a big decision and you don't want to put your fate into the hands of someone who will not give their best and/or someone who is not well versed and respected. Roger is hands down your best choice. I'm grateful I selected him. Thank you, Roger.

Thank you for the great review. Although your review is anonymous, I obviously know who wrote it based on what you wrote and yes it was certainly a battle. It took so long and there were so many battles with the state attorney that I became frustrated with the system. I was pushed mentally because the system was ignoring logic. I am glad on the final hail mary that they reduced the charge. Same argument five or six times and was was told no, no no no, no no and then the last day at the last minute they say yes. . Believe in Jesus. I did nothing different except pray and ask again. # team Jesus

Honest lawyer

I hired the Law office of Roger P. Foley, P.A. because I was arrested for DUI. He made a highly stressful situation very easy. Took the time before I even hired him to explain the process. He went above and beyond for me. He even did more than I expected. Mr. Foley treated me like family. It s...hould be his slogan. I met with several attorneys all of them gave me the same pitch that you can beat this and that it will be an easy win. I called Mr. Foley and he said the opposite but he explained why I was in this situation and what the law said on the subject. He spent 30 minutes on phone answering questions without knowing if I was interested in hiring him. He always emailed me, called me back and I was always updated. I did not have to blow him up to get answers, everything was smooth. We could have filed motions and went to trial, they started with a plea with lots of conditions. Mr. Foley went through each case and cut down all the conditions and had the charge lowered. My friends at first were thinking why am I hiring an attorney you can just plea out yourself or get a public defender but as the process went they were saying "good job hiring that guy," "you are so lucky." I would recommend Mr. Foley to anyone that is arrested. I dont plan on needing him again.

Celina, Thank you for your kind review. I am glad everything went well and that you were happy with our law firm. DUI law is a complex area that many dabble in. I don't dabble. I take courses throuhout the year so that I have an increased knowledge to help clients. The case law is constantly changing. You had a lot of choices in your hiring process and I am glad that you gave us the opportunity to show you our efforts. God Bless and thanks again.

30 year old VOP case

I Violated probation In the 80s on an OUI conviction and also had a few outstanding traffic tickets. Then I left the state. I hired him to solve the VOP problem. He was the second lawyer I contacted. I had a fairly lengthy consultation with him by phone. I was impressed not only by his knowledge of ...the law and how he proposed to proceed if hired, but also his knowledge of that specific court and judge. (the Judge has a reputation of being tough) He negotiated an extremely favourable settlement with the State of Florida without the need for me to appear. The first lawyer I spoke with said that i would definitely need to appear. Mr Foley was pretty sure I would need to appear but said that he would try his best to waive appearance. There is a probation supervisor in that court system that is frankly amazed at the deal that Mr Foley was able to obtain. One other thing that helped in my case was the fact that I had retained proof of OUI school that I completed in 1989. ALWAYS save your paperwork!

You left out the most important part of the favorable deal- that it was dismissed. We are always happy to help and feel fortunate that everything worked out. Thanks for your review.

dui and leaving the scene

On january 7th 2014 i was leaving a crossfit gym in pompano beach and bumped a parked car that was too close to my truck, the crossfit class was finishing up there W.O.D (workout of the day) outside in the rear of the gym. I straightened my truck out and proceeded to drive to the back of the building... to inform the owner of the vehicle when i was pulled over by a police officer that was parked across the street doing surveilance work. He didn't believe i was looking for the owner and made me get out of my truck and locked me in the back of his police car while he did his investigation, after waiting for a long time in the back of the police car i was asked to get out by a DUI investigator. The officer was the biggest jerk i had ever met in my life, i told him i had 2 drinks with some co workers after work around 4 o'clock, it was now 830 at night. He asked me if i would be willing to do a roadside sobriety test, after performing a pretty much perfect test he still arrested me for DUI and leaving the scene. I refused the breathalizer and i spent the night in broward county jail and was released in the morning. As soon as i was released i turned on my phone and started searching for dui lawyers, i googled top dui attorneys in broward county and Roger P Foley popped up every time. I called Mr. Foley that afternoon and was sitting in his office the next day. My first impression of Roger was this guy means buisness, he's tall, well dressed and talks with authority, he knew DUI laws inside out. I thought to myself, if i wanted a chance to get out of this situation, this was the guy i needed on my side. We discussed his fees, and he was nice enough to work out an easy payment plan for me. Before i left his office i asked him how long would this case take from beginning to end? he said about 12 months. Mr Foley got right to business, he ordered my DUI video, police report and a copy of the radio conversations with the aressting officers. After getting a depostion from the officers he scheduled a meeting for me and him to sit down and discuss a strategy for my case. We discussed all the factors and reviewed my dui video and agreed that this was a case that needed to taken to trial. Days before my trial date Mr Foley contacted the district attorney and asked her to review my case and video, after looking it over she offered me a plea, part of the plea barging included probation. I asked Roger if he thought i should take the plea, and he said you have a strong case, if it was me i wouldn't. After another couple weeks of negotiating back and forth with the district attorney and her supervisor, i was sitting in a courtroom with a motion to supress. When Mr Foley speaks on your behalf he amediatley takes control of the court room, i could tell he really intimedated the arresting officers. After 3 long hours in the court room i was denied my motion to supress evidence. Mr Foley insisted that my trial be reset and he be given time to find a case that mirrored mine where that case was won. 3 weeks later i was back in the court room, the district attorney knew Mr Foley had a strong case, so i was offered another plea. I was originally charged with a DUI, leaving the scene, and improper backing. I accepted a plea of reckless driving with adjudication with held, leaving the scene with adjudication with held, and my improper backing fine just disappeared. I received no jail time, no probation, no suspension on my license, i just received court costs.Mr Foley and i agreed that this was a win! He said i haven't seen a plea offered to anyone with a dui case that was so lenient in 10 years. My case was over in only 10 months. I know i made the right decision in hiring Roger P Foley as my dui attorney, i would recommend him to anyone with a criminal or misdemeanor case.

Got me out of a DUI

Attorney Foley said what he said he was going to do and I was not convicted. I was arrested for DUI and it was looking like a very difficult case and I did not want to go to trial. He was able to have the charge reduced to reckless driving by negotiating with the state and no conviction. I had a... friend that he got off of a DUI and he recommended me and I would recommend him to a friend if they needed an attorney.
