Responsive and committed

Having wasted money on one irresponsible Florida attorney, I reached out to the law office of Roger Foley in West Palm Beach because of his recommended skill and empathy in dealing with a mentally ill patient like my 36-year-old son, who faced criminal charges in Daytona Beach, Volusia County. Roger ...stood out because he “got it.” He was able to eventually connect with my son, and Roger was responsive as the case made its way through the two worlds of the court system and the Florida health care system. He took the time to meet with my son and understand the complexity of the situation. He also kept me, the parent, informed along the way. Further, Roger negotiated as well as he could with the prosecutor and wrote the court an outstanding letter outlining how my son deserved a reduced charge based on time served and my son’s situation. I still think that the courts and the Florida system were harsh in dealing with my son and my son’s case, but it could have been much worse without Roger’s counsel and attention to detail.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience and for trusting me with such a challenging and deeply personal case. It was truly an honor to assist your son and your family in navigating this complex intersection of the legal and healthcare systems. Cases like these are never easy, and your unwavering support for your son was invaluable throughout the process. The challenges in this case were substantial. From the start, it was clear that the system had failed to recognize an individual in distress—a man who had no intent to commit a crime but was instead responding to what he genuinely believed were the instructions of the police. This misunderstanding created a situation that could have led to disastrous consequences. The officers’ inability to identify and appropriately handle someone in crisis set the stage for charges that should never have been filed. The possibility of going to trial was a constant consideration. On one hand, the facts surrounding your son’s actions and intent provided a strong basis for a not-guilty verdict. On the other hand, the stakes were incredibly high. A trial risked the potential of a harsh prison sentence for a man who had already been through so much, based on testimony from officers who misinterpreted the situation and compounded the problem. This was not just a legal battle—it was a fight to ensure that your son’s mental health and intent were properly understood and considered. Ultimately, we faced unique challenges: a system that is often unsympathetic to those struggling with mental health, a prior attorney who mishandled the case and eroded trust, and the need to ensure your son was treated fairly while protecting him from further harm. The decision to resolve the case outside of trial was not taken lightly. Ultimately, your son made the choice after much thought and input from family. I know the choice was made with careful consideration of all the factors, including the significant risks posed by a jury potentially misled by police that were clueless. I’m proud that we were able to secure a resolution that avoided further damage to your son’s future while highlighting his circumstances to the prosecutor. I also want to acknowledge your prior experience with an attorney who failed to meet even the most basic professional standards. That kind of behavior is unacceptable and does a disservice not only to clients but also to the justice system as a whole. I hope the appropriate disciplinary actions are pursued to prevent others from being harmed in the same way. Thank you again for trusting me to help your family through this difficult time. If you or your son ever need support or legal guidance in the future, I’m always here to help. Wishing you both continued strength and brighter days ahead.

Amazing

When my daughter was arrested, I started searching for and attorney to help her. After doing my research and speaking with Roger I new we found the right attorney. Roger was honest, straight forward and didn’t sugar coat anything, I respected that and it was good for my daughter to hear. Roger went t...o work and was able to get the charges reduced and was extremely helpful with explaining everything and walking my daughter step by step during the process. Roger show his heart and compassion for his clients, while he was on vacation he handle my daughters court case via zoom and did all while he was vacationing with his family. Roger truly has his clients best interests in mind. I can not thank Roger enough for what he was able to accomplish. If you need a attorney that will work for you, YOU NEED TO CONTACT ROGER

The best Lawyer in town!

I was arrested for taking something of small value from a store. I had never experienced this before, I have no idea how it happened. I wanted to die. I found Roger in a Google search. I was sure that he was the professional I was looking for. He received me with great affection and solidari...ty. talked to me a lot, was attentive and treated me as if I were his mother. My case was dismissed in less than 2 months! I would recommend his services to anyone!

"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"
