Words can’t even describe how honest, loyal, friendly, caring, and genuine this guy is. And if I tried I’d be here typing for a very long time. Their is absolutely nothing better that he could’ve done. The feeling I always got from Rob is that it’s not just your case. When he’s up their fighting for you; you get the feeling from him that he’s almost fighting for his own freedom and not just yours. And that if it goes wrong then he’s the one suffering the consequences. That’s when I knew that I could put everything in his hands and he wouldn’t let me down. As a result I was walking a free man and it only took the jury 15 min to come with a verdict. Rob is not only an extraordinary, amazing person and lawyer. But he has turned into one of my best friends, and no matter what you can’t put a price on any of that. Might as well put a halo on this guy. If anyone would like to know my story. Give him a call, he’s be more than happy to tell ya. Love you brother.- Russell

I received a felony DUI during a relapse after 10 years of recovery. When I got sober, I was staying with a friend whose life was severely effected because of having a felony on his record. He kindly offered to pay part of the legal fee to see Rob Cleland and that was the best thing that could have happened!
Rob worked tirelessly to get me diversion even though it wasn't an option due to missed court dates. Then, instead of judging me, he helped me to renew my diversion when I wasn't able to complete it the first time due to relapses. All throughout the process, Rob showed endless compassion and understanding at a time that I needed it the most. I am so grateful to my friend and to rob for their amazing help.
I have recommended friends to Rob Cleland and will continue to do so.- Satia -
I contacted Rob on short notice for a traffic offense. He was always very quick to respond with any questions I had leading up to my court date and was very reassuring. He kept me informed every step of the way and was confident and professional throughout. I couldn't have been happier with his devotion and work ethic. I highly recommend Rob.- Jen
