Out Of State Docket Assistant For Medical Licensure Assistance

I am deeply grateful for the help of Robert Ernenwein in acquiring past files needed for out-of-state medical licensure applications. He and his associate, Ms. Mathis were professional and timely in assisting me from across the country. He also offered me additional advice on further course of action... for the future. Within a week my documents were at my door via Fedex and was able to submit in time for my licensure deadlines. I would definitely recommend Robert and his associates to others in need of legal advice and representation. Thanks again!

Domestic violence lawyer | Oct 14

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Robert and his firm appreciate the technical crossover issues domestic violence allegations create in divorce and criminal matters. Typical plea bargains by most public defenders can create presumptions in divorce proceedings which can prevent a person from receiving spousal support or custody of their children. As a divorce lawyer I know that when I work with Robert the matter will be handled carefully and expertly."

Criminal defense lawyer | Aug 03

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"When I was a District Attorney, I referred all potential criminal defendants to Mr. Ernenwein--even my own friends and family members. Now as a practicing criminal defense lawyer, I look to him for guidance and expertise as he knows just about everything in the book. He is a great lawyer, and even greater person. You cannot go wrong with Robert as your lawyer, as your co-counsel, or even as your adversary."

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.
