Charles Ware was professional and amenable to speaking to our family at a time that was convenient for us. His knowledge and expertise on the topic was impressive and he provided us with several recommendations in order to pursue the appropriate remedy for the situation. As a final point, he was sincere and extremely polite. I highly recommend him and would seek his guidance in any future matters.

He listens to every word you say and even if it takes 20 minutes without interruptions he will allow you to explain the case. Then he cautiously gives you the best advice you need. What more can you ask for? Thank you Mr. Charles!

23 Jan, 2018 by S. t.

Mr. Ware is not your typical attorney. His years of experience, intelligence, integrity, patience and creativity make him one-of-a-kind within the legal industry. I came to find Mr. Ware during the most difficult time in my life - my separation/divorce. His kind calm and reassuring manner put me at ease while he diligently continued to work on my case. He was (and still is) with me every step of the way, no matter what. He will not give up. I highly recommend Mr. Ware if you are in need of an attorney.

Mr. Rombro was referred to my family for a case that was brought against my son. It was his first offense but a very serious offense. We were so concerned as to what the outcome would be. Mr. Rombro fought for my very hard son’s freedom and read between lines of inconsistency. I would recommend him to anyone in need of a lawyer for services he offers. I am so grateful to God that he took the case and all things worked out for my family. He is very knowledgable and knows what he is doing.

We were in a crappy situation and I searched the internet for HOURS for an attorney. Here I had my fiancé being held out of state when we returned from our cruise. I contacted Allan and as soon as we hired him it was game on. Within 2 weeks my fiancé was home, recalled warrant and dismissed. If you’re looking for a REAL attorney with the aggressiveness for your case ALLAN IS THE ONE.! He answers texts, calls and emails. Put your life in his hands & I promise he will do everything possible. I will refer this man to anyone going through the criminal justice system.

12 Jan, 2020 by L.s.

After consulting a handful of attorneys, I hired Mr. Rombro to represent me with a DUI case. He is reasonably priced and experienced. He responded promptly from the very first call on a weekend and gave me his cell number. He was very pleasant, and knowledgeable. He answered my questions leading up the case over mutiple calls. I was facing many charges from the incident including a hit and run. He was able to get all but one minor charge dropped. I walked out of court with the most favorable outcome and I’m more than pleased.

Dear Mr. Robinson, I wanted to write you a brief statement of commendation for the handling of my DUI case and for the benefit of others seeking a DUI lawyer. For the benefit of others, you WANT to hire this DUI firm! They are the BEST by far in the State of Maryland! I am a pilot and REQUIRED a favorable outcome in my DUI to not only continue driving but to continue flying. Bruce took my case and assured me that everything would be worked out successfully. He said if there is a problem in court, his firm will continue to fight for me until we get the required result. We went to District Court in Baltimore County and Mr. Robinson tried my case. He advised me ahead of time that we had an unfavorable and very harsh judge but that he would fight the case for me at trial regardless. He tried the case as promised and we did not obtain the result that I needed to continue my flying career. I was very concerned for my future and the next sequence of events to follow. Mr. Robinson assured me that this can happen with difficult judges but that he would continue to fight my case in the Circuit Court of Appeals. Mr. Robinson explained all the options in my very delicate and complicated situation as a pilot. Ultimately, I picked an avenue that worked best for me and Mr. Robinson's firm actually got the case EXPEDITED on the Circuit court docket and got the EXACT result that I needed, thereby protecting my future. Mr. Robinson's firm also went beyond the call of duty and dealt with Maryland's MVA as well as my out of state MVA to clear up issues there as well. The paralegal Melissa knows exactly what she is doing with various legalities and MVA situations. She gets things done! She is very knowledgeable, thorough, responsive and extremely efficient. Melissa continued to support my efforts even when I returned home out of state. She never left any of my concerns unanswered. Melissa is a very valuable part of the Robinson and Associates team. I recommend this firm to whoever is looking for a DUI lawyer because the DUI TEAM at Robinson and Associates will go the extra mile to get the job done correctly. They have a friendly and supportive staff and they do what they say they will do. If you have a lot riding on the outcome of your DUI…HIRE THIS FIRM! This is the easiest call to make for a very serious situation. I have been where you are at now! CALL NOW!!!

I'm not much for words. I was hit head on in a car accident. The car involved hit two other cars plus mines. Thank the most highly that it wasn't as bad as it could have been for me. But besides all of this. What was a most comforting thing for me. Is that ROBINSON AND ASSOCIATES. NEVER LEFT MY SIDE. THEY Wrote or either called me simply to ask how I was FEELING...Those simple things made me feel Wonderful. They were like family simply just checking up on me. THEY NEVER NOT ONCE LEFT MY SIDE. I just wish to take this time to say THANK YOU. ROBINSON AND ASSOCIATES.

I would also like to say thank you to Bruce Robinson and the entire Robinson & Associates team for the excellent service that you all have provided for me during this disappointing time period in my life. But you all have made things easier for me to learn from my mistakes and grow from this experience.

I had the privilege of being represented by Attorney Stephanie Shipley in a recent DUI case. From the start, Stephanie demonstrated exceptional dedication and legal acumen. She thoroughly investigated every detail of my case and discovered critical discrepancies in the evidence, which ultimately led to the State dropping all alcohol-related charges against me. Stephanie's meticulous attention to detail and her ability to navigate the complexities of the legal system were instrumental in achieving this outcome. She kept me informed at every step, provided clear explanations of my options, and was always available to answer my questions. Her professionalism and commitment to her clients are truly commendable. I highly recommend Stephanie Shipley to anyone in need of a skilled and diligent attorney. She turned what could have been a very difficult situation into a successful resolution, and I am incredibly grateful for her efforts.

I have been working with Meg for a few years on my case and she was always ready and aware of any new immigration policy or law. We worked together when she was in a previous firm and I actually continued working with her and following her to her newest firm because of the wealth of information and passion she has for immigration law.

14 Sep, 2021 by Brian

Meg was a terrific help with our immigration applications. Thoroughly professional at all times. Highly knowledgeable in her field and a pleasure to work with. Great listener and understanding of our needs

13 Sep, 2021 by Paul

Meg was able to get my dying friend’s wife into the country to be by his side after other top attorneys told us it was impossible because of her immigration status. Meg had a thorough understanding of the law and how it applied to the case and was able to leverage her network to navigate the system and ultimately get the wife a Visa. The day we got the Visa it felt like a miracle after so many prior failed attempts. Never did we feel like Meg’s client. Instead we felt like Meg was our advocate who was emotionally and professionally vested in our case and fighting for us by our side throughout the process. Meg was our last hope and she delivered when no one else could!

My girlfriend and I got involved in a domestic violence case a couple of months ago. We both were foreigners and have no such experience before on how to find a good attorney and how to win the trial. After some research online and word of mouth, we decided to trust AVVO and trust David. David was a helpful listener and man of wisdom. He can always point out the key points of our case. Finally he convinced the state of attorney office that everything was just a misunderstanding and they dismissed the case then. We both are very happy and appreciate the life we are having now. David promised that record expunge will also be done in another couple of months. We really trust him and happy with our choice. Thanks, David. The best attorney always tries to solve the problem before it really becomes a problem!

Very helpful, helped with drafting out our constitution and legal documents for our organization and identified any potential risks involved. Very great person to work with.

For my case, David was able to explain everything to me step by step. He was also able to effectively answer my questions while providing details about his own preparations. He kept me informed the entire process and I was able to trust him completely due to his amazing preparation skills. If you truly want the best criminal defense in Maryland I highly recommend you give David a call.

After my most recent spinal surgery in December 2018, I was unable to return to work full-time. My company provided Short- and Long-Term Disability (LTD) benefits through an insurer. Based on their proximity and the user reviews I found, I contacted Andalman & Flynn (A&F) in February 2019, and subsequently chose to have them (Elliott Andalman, primarily) represent me and handle my claim for LTD benefits. My claim was denied in August 2019. Based on their recommendation, we chose to have them file an appeal with the insurer, which was done in January 2020. In April 2020, the insurer granted the appeal and provided LTD benefits retroactive to April 2019. Throughout the process/ordeal, A&F was responsive, supportive, professional, and thorough. Without these qualities, we would have never successfully persevered or prevailed. I highly recommend their services for anyone in a similar situation.

09 Aug, 2020 by Lc

I was very satisfied with my lawyer, Mr. Elliott Andalman. Mr. Andalman won my disability claim on an appeal. Mr. Andalman is knowledgeable, experienced, a good listener, non-judgmental, helpful, kind, patient, and easily reachable. Mr. Andalman took time to thoroughly explain the process, answer questions, and prepared all documents in a timely matter. I would highly recommend lawyer Elliott Andalman. I am very grateful for his excellent job!

29 Jul, 2020 by Katrina

I reached out to Andalman and Flynn in the early part of 2016. This firm were the only firm that accepted my case on a contingency basis. This was music to my ears because I did not have any income due to the sudden separation of my agency. I was not prepared. Although hope had been restored, as I had my free consultation with Elliot. I was diagnosed with PTSD, Depression and Anxiety. It was a long battle with OPM, but Elliot was persistent and he prevailed. He guided me every step of the way. "We Won!" is the news I heard on July 2, 2020!!! What a 4th of July Celebration!!! After nearly a five year extended journey, those are the words I heard on this day. Overwhelming emotions can not describe the feelings of HAPPINESS! Elliot heard my pain, my cries and felt my feelings of hopeless. Though he did not give up!! He was persistent and he prevailed. Elliot is professional, responsive, experience and highly knowledgeable. He stayed with me for almost five years through all bureaucracies of OPM (Office of Personnel Management). Elliot is an OUTSTANDING attorney and his law office is amazing. He and his paralegal Eric help me through it all. I truly felt a found a true and personal friend. "We Won!" A forever happy Client,

Andrew provided everything I needed when dealing with a Workmans Comp injury that the insurance company was stonewalling on. Highly recommended.

05 Nov, 2021 by Valerie

Attorney Rodabaugh explained to me (in a way that I could understand), the process when it came to my claim. In my almost 30 years of working, I'd never had to deal with a Workers comp claim. I was overwhelmed as well as dealing with my injury. I don't drive and he was willing to meet with me at the local library to review the process. Having someone there to help me go through this process, helped with some of the anxiety of not only what was going on with this case but also the fact of dealing with a medical issue in my family. Attorney Rodabaugh was able to get the hearing moved because I wouldn't have been able to go through the hearing in the current state I was in.

09 Jul, 2021 by Melanie d.

Unfortunately my Mother passed away without having a Will or any of her Estate affairs in order. Prior to my mothers passing I had never handled an Estate before. I contacted a few attorneys but didn't feel they were the right fit for all of the complications pertaining to the Estate. Some attorney's weren't even willing to take it on. A neighbor of mine (who is an attorney) suggested that I contact Mr. Andre McDonald to handle my Mothers Estate. After our initial phone consultation, I knew immediately that he was the the right fit for all that needed to be accomplished. It was around the holidays. Mr. McDonald went above and beyond the typical duties that involve getting an Estate opened. He stayed involved and was on top of every aspect regarding the Estate throughout the entire process. He followed through with getting the Estate closed in a timely fashion. Mr. McDonald was very professional and knew exactly what to do and how to handle the Estate. He was always informative and reliable. Mr. McDonald always personally returned my phone calls and my emails in a timely manner. His staff was very pleasant and a joy to work with during a very hard time in my life. He kept me up to date on anything that needed to be done. He took the time to answer any questions or concerns that I had. Dealing with the loss of a loved one is a challenge within itself but Mr. McDonald put my mind at ease. I felt comfortable and confident knowing that he was the attorney handling my Mothers Estate during a very hard and difficult ordeal. I highly recommend Mr. Andre McDonald for any and all of your Estate needs.

I wish that I had enough writing space to express just how competent and skilled Brian Loffredo has been with respect to my legal matter. Brian came to me as a highly regarded referral and I first reached out to him in the midst of a very busy holiday week. Even with that being the case, Brian returned my call immediately. I gave him a pretty tall order, which required a very quick turnaround. I requested that he review a franchise disclosure, document, as well as a franchise agreement within a very tight window of time. Not only did he execute the tasks with a very quick turnaround, but his analysis in reviewing those documents was nothing short of outstanding, I have found Brian to be very conscientious, detail oriented, results oriented and he took the time to listen - which was so important to me as his client. Again, during what was a very busy holiday week, he spent nearly 5 hours with me going through his copious notes and analysis. I would highly recommend Brian with respect to any legal matter. He is a consummate professional and I have truly appreciated his superior level of commitment to me, as his client. Without a doubt, retaining Brian was one of the best business decisions that I have made, as a franchise owner. I hope to make use of his legal services in the future because he was exactly what I needed in an attorney and he DELIVERED!

12 Jul, 2022 by Tricia

I had the pleasure of working with Brian to review my Franchise Agreement. I could not ask for a more knowledgeable, detailed and attentive attorney to go through this process with. Brian left no question unanswered and ensured that I became a franchise owner with my eyes wide open. I would recommend Brian without hesitation.

I recently engaged Brian to assist me with a franchise opportunity. I found Brian to be knowledgeable, available, and resourceful especially when reviewing my specific situation and concerns. Brian was quick to turn around documents. He always had my best interest in mind. I would certainly recommend Brian if you are considering a franchise opportunity.

She met me as many times virtually as I wanted and was very quick to respond to all my emails. She always kept me in the loop and prepared me for every outcome. Overall I got exactly the type of closure I wanted. It was extremely smooth and I couldn't have a better attorney than Radha. Hopefully I won't need another divorce lawyer.

In early 2020 I contacted Mr. Kelly to handle 2 cases - one nursing home and one hospital. He was honest in his assessments of my case, kept me up to date throughout the entire process, explained both the pros and cons of offers, and as my cases are now completed, I would absolutely hire him again should the need arise. I never felt pressured to take an offer, he was thorough in his explanation of the use of my money, and quite thrifty with expert service opportunities that presented themselves.

My experience with Mr. Kelly was absolutely amazing! He was so kind, informative, civilized, and polite! He was courteous, and attentive! He listens without cutting you off! He was very easy to talk with! He was very generous with his time, and his advise! He knew early on that he wouldn’t be able to take my case, but only because my situation was not within his purview, but he is just so wonderful that he’d spent at least a half hour of his very valuable time with me, a total stranger on the phone, giving me all of his best advise! At first, I thought I’d just called the wrong lawyer. Nope! He’s ABSOLUTELY the right lawyer for me! I need him on my team! I need him in my life! Hahahaha!

Megan is exceptionally knowledgeable, thoughtful and personable. We sought her help with estate planning once our daughter was born and she walked us through the complicated process and crafted a plan that suits us perfectly. She is always willing to listen and provides constructive feedback. We enjoyed working with her so much that she's helped my dad create a comprehensive estate plan. I would recommend Megan without reservation.

Megan Wallace worked with me on preparing my will, setting up a revocable trust and various other items that I had been putting off including updating to current requirements my Medical/Health Care Agent, Power of Attorney and changing several property deeds. I was pleased with Ms. Wallace's ability, thoroughness, keeping me advised and the attention she and her staff showed me during several months of working together. I willingly recommend Megan Wallace . . .

My name is Ms. Consolata and Mrs. Takemori has represented me since 2010 when my mother petitioned for me. My case was a complicated one and an erroneous decision was made at the US Embassy in Nairobi, Kenya. My Attorney Gina Michele Takemori was able to defend my case with LegalNet at the Department of State and to have the Embassy reverse their decision. It was only in September 2021 that I was given my immigrant visa and allowed to return to the United States of America. During the whole process from the time my case was filed and during the time I was abroad, my Attorney never abandoned me. She checked on me, updated me regularly, encouraged me, checked with the Department of State and the Embassy whenever necessary. Attorney Takemori and her team are seasoned Lawyers and Paralegals who have the knowledge, experience in immigration law and work diligently with care and empathy and can be trusted. For these reasons I would highly recommend them to anybody, especially to people who have complicated cases.

OMG, I don't know where to start from, simply there are no words to describe how grateful I am to have found Ms. Gina Takemori. She is very knowledgeable, thorough, a great communicator, and truly represents the best interest of her clients. if Gina takes your case, you can be confident she will do everything and win it. Besides being an outstanding professional she also has a very nice personality and treats her clients as family members. My journey to becoming a permanent resident, and eventually a USA citizen was very stressful and complicated, all my hopes were lost but she restored the confidence in me, not just once but many many times. She laid everything out for me clearly and helped me with every step of the way. We started from nothing and Gina and her fantastic team Maria, and others worked very hard with me, she was available any time I needed her, and always made sure I was on top of what we needed to do. If you are looking for a great immigration lawyer, Please, look no further! She is truly amazing and I highly recommend her law firm.

Ms. Gina was outstanding working with me on my immigration case. Didn't care about money. All she said was help me help you and your family, when things go well, you will pay me. I was working in the warehouse and couldn't afford to pay a lawyer. She asked me to pay what ever i could every month. After my case was granted, she assisted me to file for my family at no extra cost. Ms Gina put people and her experience to serve, no comes later. Go Ms. Gina!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We appreciated that Sam Wiest was communicative and we always felt like he was looking out for our best interest. He was prompt and professional and answered all of our questions well. Everything went to schedule and we felt well taken care of. We would gladly work with this company and especially Sam again.

I highly recommend their services!
