DUI Experience- As good as it gets

My parents found Mr. Foley. From the get go he knew what he was doing. Had a real desire to win. The whole process is nerve racking. Mr. Foley tried to keep me calm. He explained everything in detail and put it all on the table. I did not win my case but it had to do with other charges that I in...curred while out on bond for DUI. I take accountability for that. The charges could have been more severe than I received. Mr. Foley kept me out of jail.

Burglary Experience

I violated probation by cathching a new charge for Burglary. I did not find Foley but my bf did. When I was arrested and sitting in jail he was looking for a good lawyer and a good lawyer fast. I asked him how his previous cases went, how many cases he had, and what school he went to because I was... in custody and needed to get out fast. I was facing 20 years plus the new charges. I needed someone to understand my previous charge with the new charge and be able to represent me properly. I did not want someone to just plea bargain me. Foley filed a motion to set bond on my vop. The morning of the hearing Mr. Foley had a medical issue but still showed up - a lot of attorneys will send one of their friends who is not that qualified to represent you for that time being but he did not do that. The judge wanted to extend/ postpone hearing for another week and Mr. Foley convinced her to do it in two days. When we went to court he got me the bond on VOP which is very rare- even the judge said it. From there I was always in constant contact with him. He never gave me any excuses or any runaround like other attorneys. I hired him on both cases. He worked with me on the costs of both cases. Foley immediately filed a motion to suppress and went to court. We worked out a deal with the state where the burglary was changed to a tresspass and no probation and reinstated me on adminstative probation for my previous felony case. My case was resolved that day without any prolonging of the case. Honestly, I would highl;y recommend this guy. He is very confident in the law- he knows the law.. He never let me feel like I was in the dark. He explained every new detail in the case and kept me updated. Money well spent

Great DUI Attorney

I googled Florida DUI attorneys and came accross one of the few lawyers that is competent to take the case to trial. Italked to a few lawyers. Office was clean, staff was top notch, staff answered all my questions first time around, returned phone calls and emails. Generally, a great experience. ... On day of multiple trials Mr. Foley was ready but they were not and today on Final day of trial as we were picking jury they asked for side bar and I did not know what was going on. The case was reduced to a reckless. Even at the last minute you continued to add value to my case by covering all the bases with the court. I would recommend The Law Office of Roger P. Foley to any with a DUI issue.

Lawyer Foley is like a Pitbull with a bone-Aggressive!

One night I was celebrating my birthday and was driving home around 12pm near turnpike. I was going a few miles over speed limit and was pulled over. They asked me if I had anything to drink but never asked over how long a period. I had drank 4-5 beers 6 hour period. As i exited the vehicle i nee...ded my cane because of a full hip replacement and the officers said sure. Then he asked me to do exercises but I said i was unable. He just said I needed to do them. He never said he would modify but considered it a refusal of the exercises. I told him I would give a breath. Police officer was rude discourteous and not willing to look at fact that I had an impairment. I was arrested and taken to substation and my breath was .199. I knew there was no way that i could blow that high after only having 4-5 beers over a 5-6 hour period. Then I went to main jail. It was horrible because i am diabetic and they took my cane so I could not walk. They then transferred me to med wing. I found Mr. Foley from Steve at the bailbonds office. I met with Attorney RP Foley and was put at ease. Foley also made me a payment plan because I could not afford fees upfront. When I asked him questions he knew all the answers so I felt confident. Although I was confident in foley as time went by I became nervous of what would happen and then the state came with their deal. That was very stressful because they were throwing the book at me and there was no deal. After talking with Lawyer Foley, he said " although I can't guarantee you anything- I am very confident in my ability to win this case and if I did not think I could win I would not blow smoke up your A$$." He came at me straight- not with legal mumbo jumbo and used examples on how he would fight and his strategy. Court date, after court date, I just wanted to be done worrying about it. Finally on my day of court- I never saw Mr. Foley argue befoore but it was obvious that he did his home work. He was very aggressive like a DOG WITH A BONE. HE would not give it up. The state was so confused by Mr. Foley's argument. He had the judge arguing with the state going< " i never thought about that state but Mr. Foley is right who is she do certify the machine do we even know if she is certified? WHy is she signing it?" and the state was lost. The Judge initially ruled against us and even found that the cops were lying and Foley proved it with his research but the judge did not agree at first. I was so confused because he proved it was a lie- I could feel his confidence and then Foley argued for another 11/2 after she ruled against him. For her to let Foley to continue arguing after she had meade her ruling I thought maybe she ws starting to get his argument. She allowed him 48 hours to draft a memorandum about the eye test and how it could not establish a reason for police to arrest me. He said that the case law was against what the judge was saying but she wanted a case from 17th judicial circuit. He did his research and filed documents she wanted. Mr. Foley called me three weeks later and asked if I wanted the good news or the bad news. I took the bad news and he said your date has been changed again. SO whats the good news, I asked and he said that she changed her mind and granted our motion. We won! I was not sure if everything was thrown out but it all got dismissed and the state decided not to appeal the judge. Iwould recommend Mr. Foley in a heartbeat for any criminal case in Florida. I have had other criminal attorneys in the past but Attorney RP Foley is hands down the best I have ever had.

Best DUI Lawyer in Florida

I was exiting a BK and went to left lane and police immediately pulled me over. The police officer told a lie when he wrote his report. He said I hit a median. Then the other cop comes and has me exit the car and makes me do exercises. He slams me on car and cuffs me. Never tells me im arreste...d. They never told me that i did not have to blow or do exercises. I did the exercises and gave a breath. They took several breath test that were erratic and ultimately my breat resulty was a .228. The bondsman recommended the best DUI lawyer in town. I was thinking about going with a cheaper lawyer but the bondsman said that he was the best so i went with Mr. Foley. Once I met Mr. Foley I had no hesitation. I had full confidence in this office and Ilet him do his magic. Unfortunately you don't ever know but he did his thing and we went to court today for a motion. I was nervous but confident because when I saw him in the court rooom he took overand had everybody's respect. The attorney for the state tried to give Mr. Foley some case law and it made the judge mad and she asked, " is this what they are teaching you state attorney's now" . Mr. Foley took the report and told the judge it was different and the judge agreed. The Judge said that the officer was premature in stopping me and granted our motion. The officer said I needed a turn signal to pull out onto a one way road-Mr. Foley asked him to go look up the law after the hearing but he was very polite and professional and was never rude with anyone. He just commanded the court's respect. I would highly recommend Mr, Foley to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer.

"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"
