      Review Rob Henson

      Discrimination and wrongfully terminated at DOK2 Amazon in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma and my brother spent my check

      Posted by

      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.

      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

      Posted by

      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

      Posted by

      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

      Posted by

      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!!!

      Posted by

      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

      Posted by

      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.

      Attorney Henson is the kind of attorney you want fighting for you. He has the legal knowledge and the willingness to go to court and fight. Too many lawyers want to just plea guilty and move on. Stay away from those guys, get an attorney like Rob who is not afraid to ruffle a few feathers when fighting for your rights.

      Rob is a first rate lawyer; not only does he know the law, but perhaps more importantly -- he is able to communicate it in plain english. I wouldn't hesitate to hire Rob for a criminal defense matter.
