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.

A "Five Star" Attorney!

I very rarely give a five star rating to anyone or any company because of how difficult it is to truly earn that classification. Simply put, Roger P. Foley is a five star attorney. I was recently involved in an incident at a very prestigious hotel in West Palm Beach. My wife and I were finishing u...p a nice evening when I found myself in an altercation with another hotel patron and his friends which led to me physically defending myself and my wife. Although the police found the other individual to be the cause of the altercation, was I was still arrested for disorderly intoxication. I am active in my church, a father of five, and I work in an industry where a conviction would alter the lives of myself and my family. I needed the representation of an attorney who would handle my situation with a high level of professionalism and urgency. Mr. Foley exceeded my expectations. His communication with me throughout the case was honest, direct, and to the point. His knowledge level of the law and the court system is excellent. He demonstrated diligence by calling the prosecuting attorney after hours to negotiate my case on more than one occasion. Lastly, his physical presence in the court room is commanding. Because of his height and size, Mr. Foley is an imposing figure and fills the courtroom with his presence and personality. All in all, I find Mr. Foley’s integrity as an attorney to be outstanding and I recommend him very highly.

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.

Satisfied Customer!

I made a major mistake 24 years ago that came back to bite me in the butt and Mr. Foley took my butt out of a sling. Recommend by the car salesman when I bought my car. I had just been in an accident and my Dad asked the salesman if by chance if he knew any lawyers and He made a photocopy of Mr. F...oley's card. We met with him and made me feel comfortable. My dad was impressed with his knowledge of the case law. I decided to hire him and today and I am very satisfied with the results. I can breathe again

Very Helpful and prepared me to take the stand

I was arrested for burglary and grand theft. it was my first arrest. Not knowing the legal process I had help from my parents to research attorneys and after that we found Mr. Foley who was very knowledgeable and new ways to explain the legal process to me. Although it took a long time, he was abl...e to maintain a motion to suppress t get it dismissed. there were also recurring problems with the prosecutor but mr. foley still knew how to handle the situation effectively and was able to get the results that I wanted. I am very happy about it. I could not ask for more from Mr. Foley and I am very thankful.

"I endorse Mr. Foley. His attention and concern for his clients always comes first after his faith. A close reading of his clients reviews should be a must for any potential client. Money is clearly not his God. Knowledge of the law and procedure is excellent as is evident from his avvo contributions. Giving back to the public pro bono on sites like avvo is a blessing to all those looking for answers including attorneys who are mentored via the vast resource of answers left for the public. READ HIS REVIEWS! Do yourself a favor and schedule a consultation with him first. KUDOS"
