Truly an amazing lawyer!

Rob Dean truly is a great lawyer. He's very professional, personable, honest and does as he says. I was never once blindsided by the possibilities i was facing. It was great having someone be so honest and laying everything on the table for me since day one. He was available anytime i had a question ...or concern, he was prompt on returning emails, phone calls or text messages, and he answered any and all questions i had with complete honesty and knowledge. He has very fair rates. He was very helpful, full of knowledge, seasoned, honest and did his best to avoid jail time for me ( he succeeded), and most of all he was very nice to me and my family the entire time. I was truly honored to have him as my defense attorney. If you're in any kind of legal trouble I was contact Rob Dean, he's one of the best and I recommend him to any and everyone. Thank you so much Mr. Dean for everything and for working so diligently on my case and in keeping me out of jail. Thanks to you the case was dismissed and no time in jail!!

Son's reckless driving charge

My son got ticketed in Botetourt County for reckless driving by speed above 80. Not good. This was one week after receiving his official license from the judge in Roanoke County. I immediately began speaking with attorney friends who unfortunately aren't local. However, they gave me some advice on... searching for a good attorney. I spoke with several attorneys. I don't remember if I stumbled on Rob Dean or if he was recommended to me specifically. However, when I spoke with him, I felt like he was very kind and honest and while price wasn't my primary concern, it was very reasonable. He gave me advice on what to do to help my son achieve the best outcome. I was already doing a lot of it... like I said, I have friends who are attorneys, but his advice was consistent with the advice I had received and he offered some additional. Also, his insight into the local courts here I am sure was helpful. Throughout the process we spoke on the phone a few times and exchanged emails several times as I worked to get the various things he needed and send them his way. In the end, my son's reckless driving ticket was taken under a twelve month advisement. If my son can stay out of trouble and not receive any more tickets for twelve months, and I have no doubt he's learned his lesson, the entire thing will be dismissed. Fingers crossed. Rob Dean was excellent. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone.

Excellent legal representation and customer service

While in Virginia my elderly father was caught in a speed trap on a major highway. The Officer gave my dad a reckless driving ticket. We immediately contacted Rob's office to assist us in this matter. He was able to reduce the charge to civil disorderly driving ticket. My father was relieved he woul...d not have a misdemeanor on his record. We were very pleased with the attention and customer service we received from Rob. He is a talented attorney that knows the law and appreciates his clients. I would hire him in a second.

Helped with ticket

My wife received a ticket in southern VA. It was a reckless driving offense. We started receiving multiple letters from a lot of different attorneys. Being that we were over 6 hours away from the court house, an attorney seemed like a good alternative. What caught mine and my wife’s attention about R...ob’s letter is that it did not read like an infomercial. Rob was very professional. He did not make any promises and told me what my options were and pretty much hit the nail on the head on what he thought what the outcome would probably be. Thank you Rob for your services!

Best decision ever!

I hired Robert to represent my son when he received his second reckless driving ticket in a row. I researched a lot before choosing him. He was not the cheapest nor was he the most expensive,but he was the one who told us exactly what my son needed to do beforehand and what to expect the outcome to ...be if he did and didn't do what he recommended. Mr. Dean knows the courts in this area. He knows what the judges want and he is going to act on your best behalf. My son could have lost his license and even had to go to jail, but he did what Mr. Dean recommended and the ticket was lowered to speeding. It was more than we had hoped for and we could not have done it without Mr. Dean. He is a lifesaver.
