Discrimination and wrongfully terminated at DOK2 Amazon in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma and my brother spent my check
My brother gave me a limit on spending and 25% for me and him and the rest of my check was to be saved in the bank and I also had a check from Alaska BBNC.,585.00 and my last pay check was 411.00. December 20 , 2020. Also was discriminated and judged at job site at DOK2 AMAZON and they had female employees check up on mr and one of the supervisors went into the Bathroom and lifted up toilet and dropped it really hard so I did it too . The morning supervisor Tim was telling I was slow and that job was so easy and wasn't much to do until 4am and I called Vicki HR at Amazon and she gave me the run around for my payroll stubs.

Attorney
I hired Rob after I was arrested. I called multiple firms and got the same forecast as to what may happen and how much it should cost. They offered a grim outlook for me and said it would cost more than double what Rob quoted me. I hired Rob and he was exactly what I needed. He achieved the best case scenario for my situation, at the lowest price! No other attorney said it was even possible. Rob was truly a Godsend and I'm blessed to know this quality individual.

Highly recommend Attorney
Rob Henson has been nothing but an excellent lawyer. He has helped my family and I through what has been one of our toughest trails yet. When my sister was put in jail I did not know what to do, not being from the state OK. Talking and trying to find other lawyers before finding Rob was very difficult. I was being told that this was one of those case that could not be solved, is what i felt like i was being told. But I was blessed to have found Rob to represent us. He was understanding, experience, and devoted to what he did. And he brought back hope after just the first day of meeting with him. Now my family has put this situation behind us and that is all thanks to Rob. I cannot ask that Rob represent us again in the future only because i hope to never be in that situation again so all I can do now is recommend him to all of you that are in a tough spot and need that guidance on what steps to take next. This man will be there every step of the way to walk you through it all. He has made this experience worth our time, our money and our trust. I rate him beyond 5 stars.

A Great Criminal Lawyer
Rob was always prompt in responding to the initial inquiry and all subsequent questions. He spent plenty of time thoroughly explaining the issues of the case. He knew all the parties involved in the courtroom. He was very aggressive and fought hard for us. I highly recommend him and would use him again in a criminal case.

Awesome guy
Rob is phenomenal I have worked with other attorneys and have never had a pleasant experience until now. He was well priced not pushy and confident in how my case would play out and very accurate on the outcome. If he didn’t get what we wanted he spoke to another DA to further explain even when I couldn’t make it to court he saved my ass and communicated very quickly. Great guy and down to earth 5 stars rob! Thank you!!

Miracle worker!!!
After consulting with a few other attorneys, I chose Mr. Henson due to his professionalism and knowledge of the law. Will be forever grateful to him for handling a legal matter that could have turned out very badly had I not had Mr Henson on my side. I would refer him over any other attorney!!

Aggressive Representation, True Caring. HIGHLY Recommend
Hiring Rob to represent my 18 yr old son, was one of the best decisions we made during a very difficult time. He always took the time to explain clearly all possible scenarios, his true caring was apparent and he fought for my son every step of the way. The outcome was even better than expected. If you find yourself in a criminal investigation, you owe it to your future to consult with Rob.

Million ⭐️ If I could!
He is an excellent attorney & represented us with over the top customer service and professionalism. He worked with us from the very beginning. Once he took our case, he gave 100+% and went above and beyond. He believed in us, backed us and supported us through the court process. Where I know this would not have been the case of someone who didn't have a heart for what they do! This man has a heart for what he does! He will and can help you get through whatever battle you face in the legal system! We are from OKC, which made it even more of a taunting process. Rob made the process of coming to Tulsa much easier & more comforting. He made himself available phone, email or text with an immediate response. This made the battle with more ease to know he would answer all questions, concerns or challenges straight forward honest, true and just. I highly recommend Rob for any criminal legality you may be going thru. It pays to hire the best! Keep in mind, if your innocent he will fight to clear your name. If you are guilty, he will fight to make it better for you. He has clout and respect. This is the attorney you want to hire, if you want the best outcome. Money well spent! We won our case after only 8 enduring months. Coming from a real client!

Gives lawyers a better name/thank you!
I reached out to Rob on a specific question regarding a family member and he not only took the time to respond to my question, but also explained in more than 2 words what his explanation meant and advised for me to wait so as not to waste money hiring him (or any other attorney) just yet. A breath of fresh air after just spending $30k in family court to be charged $30-50 for every literally "Ok" and 2-3 word email response from my attorney. After the past 3 years in family court, I had come to understand why attorneys had been given the reputation they had. Thank you, Rob, for showing me that there are still good ones out there. Hope to speak with you again soon.

Very professional!
Mr Rob is a very professional, clean cut guy that knows the law very well and will do what it takes. My case got extended and dragged out and ended up being a mess and Mr Rob never added any more fees than what he told me from the start (which was a great price to begin with). He is very respected by the judges and knows the system very well. I will definitely continue to handle my legal matters through Mr Rob.

EXCELLENT ATTORNEY!
Mr. Henson defended my niece who was falsely accused. He left no stone unturned as he uncovered the truth and prepared for trial. Because of his extensive knowledge and confidence he was able to get the charges dismissed that very first day of trial! The first time I spoke with Mr. Henson was by phone when my niece had a warrant out for her arrest. Mr. Henson told us exactly what we should do and explained how to take the steps we needed to take. He wasn't even our attorney yet and he was so very helpful and caring. We were in the best hands from that very first phone call to the day the charges were dismissed. I highly recommend Mr. Henson as a defense attorney. It's our opinion that he is the very best!

Awesome attorney
I recently found myself in need of an attorney, so I started looking online and found Rob Henson. He had great reviews so I called and immediately felt like he genuinely cared about my case, and he talked to me like we had known each other for years, and just put my nerves and anxiety at ease. He let me make payments over the months he represented me which really helped us. He was able to get one of my cases completely dismissed and without him I would have never known that was even a possibility. He was always very easy to get in contact with and had answers to all my questions. I would definitely recommend Rob to anybody in need of an attorney!! He really is an amazing attorney

Greatest Attorney EVER!!!
In 2010, I made a bad choice in my life and was charged with Felony Poss. of MJ w/ Intent. After consulting with many lawyers, I met Mr. Henson. He was very kind and straight forward. I loved the fact that he listened to every bit of information and answered all questions promptly, with confidence, and not candy coated. His retainer fee was also very affordable. This is why I chose him. Throughout my trial process, everything was explained in great detail if I didn't understand something. He also holds great conversations with his clients outside the courtroom as well. Mr. Henson really makes you feel like, regardless of his workload, he is there for you and only you, which is extremely satisfying for a client. He is very prompt in returning phone calls after messages are left for him. Mr. Henson handled my case from 2010 - 2015 with great success and my charge was eventually expunged. I'm so happy with my decision of choosing Mr. Henson. He will continue to handle my case until the arrest record is expunged in the future. I would highly recommend Rob Henson to anyone facing criminal charges in Tulsa and surrounding areas. What a great lawyer and friend. Thank you Mr. Henson for all of your help! You have truly helped guided me and gave me confidence to make it through a very dark time in my life, and I am very appreciative of that.

I recommend Rob Henson
I have used Rob's services on two separate occasions during some very trying situations. I found Rob to be not only knowledgeable, but willing to listen and come up with the best solution for me as an individual and not just as a statistic. He valued my time as much as I his, and went the extra mile to work around my schedule. He was there for me from start to finish. He,s honest and he's a winner. My hats off to Rob Henson.
