Best outcome for a difficult case

Rob was able to get my wife a minimum sentence on her case, when the feedback from a few other lawyers that I spoke to was how bad things were going to be for her. He also put up with my Google lawyering and was able to explain why my understanding of things wasn't grounded in reality. He definitely ...has a lot of patients and is great at what he does.

I am a client first hand. Mr.Avery was my attorney. And I finally know a happy ending to a criminal matter.

I hired Mr. Avery. My hopes were crushed. This charge had hurt my life so bad I wanted to give up. To be honest I wouldnt say I didn’t trust his ideas I would say I trusted mine better. Sorry Mr. Avery. But boy was he right and me wrong. If you want an experienced lawyer that knows the judges and pro...secutors and know how to be to different people hire him now. That’s Him. If you want a man that will listen make you feel better when you’re freaking out. Hire him. If you wan a go for it guy. Hire him. If you want a person that stays focused when all eyes are on him and seems to always pick the right word or words in tough situations, HIRE HIM. If you want a lawyer with all these qualities plus many many more hire him. Hopefully I won’t be dealing with any more issues but if something happens you can bet I’ll be calling Rob Avery. He needs no leverage. His ideas and ways to show a picture with words is a gift he has and will use if needed. He won’t let down.

A close friend of mine was charged with a crime and Rob Avery helped him out.

A close friend of mine was charged with a crime and Rob Avery helped him out. I am super happy with the way his case was handled and would gladly refer my friends to Rob if they ever needed a lawyer.

Fantastic!

My brother got in a little trouble with the law and after he fulfilled all the court-ordered requirements, he asked me if I could help him have the case dismissed. I asked some friends and they recommended Rob Avery. Rob listened carefully to my brother's situation and then recommended that we file a... motion to dismiss. Within 48 hours of my initial phone call, the case was dismissed and the hearing date was cancelled. I couldn't have been more impressed with the speed and the outcome!

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I'm an attorney in Prescott Arizona. I referred a client that lived in Utah to Robert Avery for a criminal misdemeanor defense matter involving allegations of domestic violence. Mr. Avery did a wonderful job. He was available by cell phone to speak with and to answer questions. I found his fee to be reasonable for the work performed. He obtained a result that, in my opinion, was an excellent result given the factual circumstances of the charges against our mutual client. It's not often that I find local counsel for my clients that is compassionate and willing to be patient and answer the questions that my clients have. I recommend Rob Avery for any criminal matter that you may have in the Provo area."

Relationship: Friend

"I worked with Rob in law school and have had significant contact with him since then. He combines two qualities too rarely found together: an ardent sense of right and the ability to give force and voice to it. Rob has an impeccable sense of justice and sees to the kernel of issues quickly without becoming lost in the superfluous or the inconsequential. Those looking for a champion with the chops to give them a voice would be well served to make Rob their advocate."

His knowledge of the law is matched perfectly by his ability to argue to the courts. Rob's familiarity with the courts and legal processes combined with his legal knowledge produce a defense that is forthright and holds the prosecution and the police to honest enforcement of the law and true justice for his clients."
