Professional service to me

Mr.BODACH was kind, professional and worked for my defense in a clever strategic manner. Very pleased with his service and will recommend him to family and friends.

Kind, caring and professional

Bob was very helpful in getting the best outcome for my case and he made me feel as if I didn't have to worry through the process. I trusted him and would recommend him to anyone needing legal help.

Expert Representation

Robert Bodach has clearly earned the respect of Judges, prosecutors, and clients alike. Mr. Bodach's post-sentence efforts in my defense led to early termination of my conditional discharge.

100% on your side

I really liked how Robert, once hired, instantly started strategizing and asking questions to get our case resolved. He took his time to understand and dig deep. It meant alot to us that he took on the case as though he was the one being charged. RESULT: Robert Bodach got the police complaint aga...inst us tossed out! I mean, what more can anyone say about the great attorney they hired?

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
