EXCELLENT Based on 24 reviews David Clark2025-02-12Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Robert Southwell, Great communication and flexibility! Very Knowledgeable, Super Friendly and Respectful. His office when he is out even answers the phone quickly and relays messages which Mr Southwell gets back to quickly himself. Good choice for attorney if you do need one!

I would highly recommend working with Robert, he helped me through every question I had, was very professional and made me feel confident that I was in good hands. I knew he wanted the best outcome for me and it made me feel very at ease with the process! Tyler Monroe2025-01-26Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Robert represented me on a case recently and was able to get it completely dismissed(as it rightfully should have been). This case was a DUII and the state had a completely bogus case in my opinion. Super happy to have been appointed Robert as my attorney as he was able to get it dismissed for me in no time!
