Worst Investment of Time and Money

Robert refused to obtain even the most basic documents that could have turned the case in my favor. Robert also sent me correspondence, several emails, from ANOTHER client’s case violating the attorney client privilege. Robert also insisted on in person meetings and refused to read emails to ke...ep me posted. This led to weeks of waiting to resolve issues. Nothing was kept secret, he used his family to complete confidential work for him, and he made no attempts to counter opposing counsel. He gets paid the same amount of money whether he wins or loses so he simply doesn’t care. Avoid at all costs!

Overpriced, underperformed

Working with Robert was genuinely my worst experience working with an attorney, ever. I could not get him to explain the law at hand, succinctly design or execute a strategy, or provide any value added service in any way. AVOID.

Moody for the Win

He is the most positive for the job. I needed him to take care of an issue for me and he handled it with much care and consideration. Mr. Moody and his staff are helpful and kind. Thank you

Great service and communication

I came to Robert with a expungement case, his consultation was quick and concise, he had an immediate quote. During the process he addressed all issues quickly and answered my questions fully. His paralegals and support staff were also well informed and responsive in all matters would. I would hig...hly recommend him to anybody involved in these matters.

Expungement

  • 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.
