Definitely a satisfied client

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.

I was facing charges of petti theif and not... knowing where to turn while searching the internet i came accross your website, after reading it got my attention, I immeadiatly made that call to you, you was responsive and professional and you immeadiatly laid out an active strategy for my case and you succeeded, you have not only gotton my charges droped but also expunged, I was pleased and couldnt ask for a better outcome of my case. I thank God for drawing me close to a professional yet caring attorney like you. You have provided me with exceptional services and outstanding representation. you was aggressive and you got the job done, you are experienced and you experties are TOP NOTCH. What you have done for me maybe a great victory for you, but was a life-changing event for me, thanks to you Mr. Forley, you have earn nothing but my highest professional recommendation and i could not of have been blessed with a better attorney. I can truly say when ever in need of a good attorney "try Foley", when ever in need of good advice "try Foley", he is familiar with the law, the local courts and the local society, thanks to you once again Bahama Mama Bahamas

Extremely rude, ignorant about VOP's, and all about the mighty dollar.

I was arrested for a VOP in April 2013 and was release on my OR. My status hearing was in September 2013. I consulted over the phone with several attorneys and decided upon Mr. Foley. His retainer for my VOP was for $2,500. After my initial phone consultation, we never spoke again until stat...us hearing at which he showed up unprepared 1.5 hours late. This enraged the Judge and the prosecutors. Upon his late arrival, he quickly reviewed my file. The Prosecutor threatened prison time and stated they were gong to add an additional VOP. My VOP's were for non-payment of court ordered payments and not informing my Probation Officer immediately upon obtaining employment (I told her 2 months late). I was re-arrested at that status hearing. A new hearing was set 7 days later and he was verbally warned by the Judge to not be late. At the second hearing, he was 45 mins late AGAIN! He quickly approached me and stated he needed a $15,000 retainer instead of the $2,500 right now in cash. I told him that I could not afford that so he approached the bench and withdrew himself from the case so they put me back in jail since I had no attorney. This is for a VOP mind you, not an initial arrest and case. Why the $15,000 was demanded I am unsure. Only depositions were required from my probation officers to get their facts and evidence. i believe that his main issue was that I had a top Prosecutor against me and he did not want to go up against him. His character, both ethically and personally, are extremely lacking and were amplified by his lack of respect for the court in his non-compliance of mandated court appearance as well as his lack of concern for my circumstances arising from his tardiness and ignorance of my case. Mr. Foley never returned my retainer, even though he never handled one motion, filing, or argument. His tardiness (twice) cost me my freedom in the beginning and more money as I was left to retain another competent attorney who knew how to handle a VOP (which resulted in being false after her depositions were conducted).

I can not confirm or deny that this person was a client. Florida Bar ethics rules and the rule of confidentiality limit my response. If the alleged client would like to waive that privilege and sign a written waiver, then I could speak to whether they were a client, what charges if any were against them, what the issues were before the court and how they were handled. A Waiver of confidentiality would also allow me to point to specific public records, notes, transcripts, etc taken during the alleged courtroom issues. It is difficult not being able to discuss an incident or incidents that allegedly occurred when confidentiality and ethics rules prevent me from even acknowledging whether this person was or was not a client. Without crossing any legal boundaries, please consider some of the points made by the person writing this review. "The Prosecutor threatened prison time and stated they were gong to add an additional VOP" and "I had a top Prosecutor against me and he did not want to go up against him." "he showed up unprepared 1.5 hours late." "This enraged the Judge and the prosecutors. " " At the second hearing, he was 45 mins late AGAIN! " All courtrooms in Florida are audio recorded or have a court reporter present. Claims like these could cause the judge to hold an attorney in contempt, require a "rule to show cause" hearing, cause the Florida bar to reprimand, suspend, or revoke a license of an attorney. Check out my profile on the Florida bar showing no disciplinary history. I wish all people were truthful and honest and that all my reviews were 5 stars but unfortunately that is not the case.

"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"
