Robert J. Vitale

I hired him because he was refered to me by another attorney who could not take the case. I hired him to file a motion to get me my drivers license back after a 2nd DUI, after being denied at a drivers license appeal hearing. He charged me $1,500 for this motion. He told me there was no guarant...ee, but assured me he was very good at these types of cases. I paid him, and he told me he would let me know when motion day was. Several weeks went by and I heard nothing. I called and he told me I needed to come in and meet with him. I went in and we accomplished nothing. He asked me the same questions he did the first time we met. Several more weeks went by, and he told me he was waiting on a date. Finally after 5 months I called the oakland county courthouse on my own to find out what the delay was. They told me that motion day was Wednesday, and that if my attorney filed this week, I would be in court in 2 weeks. I called his assistant Cathy, and was very upset. By this time it had been 5 months and he told me I could just wait 6 more months until my new DLAD Hearing. I explained to him that was not what we agreed to, and that he better file the motion. 2 weeks later we where in court. The Secretary of State had representation there. They called my case, and Bob told them that the Secretary of State had done nothing wrong, and I just need my license so I could work, and provide for my family. The Jude explained to him what a motion was, and that he was there to argue that the Secretary of State had made a mistake, that's why he filed a motion. MOTION DENIED. I was so embarrassed. This guy didn't argue you anything. He didn't even know he was supposed to which is the worst part. He is not a good attorney, or a good human. He gives attorneys a bad name.
