"We highly recommend him to any parent whose child runs afoul of the law in Rhode Island."I was very concerned when my daughter, a college student, was charged by the Providence Police with using a fake ID to try to enter a club. While I don't condone her actions, I do acknowledge that young people make mistakes which should not be allowed to impair their futures. I also understand that the Providence Police Department has a new enforcement policy against college students committing alcohol related offenses which can result in harsh penalties involving a license suspension. My wife and I found Attorney Humphrey online. He thoroughly explained the law and the court proceedings to us. We attend the court hearing with Attorney Humphrey and we were able to see firsthand how efficiently he moved our daughter's case through the legal system. We highly recommend him to any parent whose child runs afoul of the law in Rhode Island.- John

Having you as my lawyer took away a tremendous amount of stress from this situation, which allowed me to learn and grow from my mistake. It is a great relief to put all of this behind me and move forward. So thank you again and have a great day!- Abby

"I called the phone number I found online at 3am"I couldn't be happier with the representation my fiancé received from the Law Offices of Robert H. Humphrey. Him and Kathleen were always available when we needed them and we often felt like they went the extra mile. I called the phone number I found online at 3am after my fiancé was arrested under the assumption I would reach an answering machine but Attorney Humphrey answered and said he would be at the courthouse at 9am if I hired him at 3am. Between him and Kathleen they made the best of an awful situation and we are extremely grateful we had him to represent my fiancé.- Andrea

"If you are charged with drunk driving, don't give up hope."When I was charged with drunk driving, I was on the fence about contacting a lawyer because I assumed there was nothing anyone could do for me. As a pilot, I was anticipating that my career was over. It was very fortunate that I contacted Attorney Humphrey because he had the drunk driving charge dismissed. A clean criminal record allows me to continue with my career. If you are charged with drunk driving, don't give up hope. Instead, contact Robert H. Humphrey, Esq.- Jim

"I would strongly recommend Attorney Robert Humphrey"Immediately upon returning from my recent combat deployment to Afghanistan, I was charged by the Cranston Police with drunk driving. I was very concerned about the effect a criminal conviction and a loss of license could have on my military career. I was fortunate Attorney Humphrey agreed to take my case. Because of his reputation and the high esteem both the Court and the Prosecution have for him and his legal abilities, my drunk driving with high Breathalyzer test results case was amended to reckless driving. This is great because I never received a criminal conviction and I never lost my license. I would strongly recommend Attorney Robert Humphrey to anyone who needs a great DUI lawyer in Rhode Island.- R.R.

"I cannot emphasize enough how much Robert did for my son and our family."When my college student son informed me that he had been implicated in a sexual assault involving another college student in Providence, I was extremely concerned. I contacted a local Massachusetts attorney who referred me to Attorney Robert H. Humphrey because of his reputation in the area of sexual assault defense. During my initial meeting with Robert and Attorney Petta from his office, my son and I were immediately put at ease. Based on his experience representing college students involved in criminal cases, the case was quickly and successfully resolved. I cannot emphasize enough how much Robert did for my son and our family. I highly recommend him to any parent who college-aged child runs afoul of the law.- Paul
