"When our son was arrested on sexual assault and rape charges, I was lost. I searched and found Patrick Roberts. I was impressed with his resume so we met with him and hired him. Now our son's case is over. It has taken a long time to get to the end of this experience, but I thank God for sending Patrick Roberts our way!"

"I was involved in a complicated health care fraud federal case. I was afraid, lost and worried about losing everything I worked hard to build. I contacted Robert's Law Team as soon as I was contacted by the federal government and immediately, I felt like I had a team on my side to support and advocate for me. I felt protected. In honesty, there were times I did not always get along with Mr. Roberts. I didn't like the truth he tried to explain to me. I was new to this system and wanted things my way, only, but through each step, he calmly reminded me that it was his job to see a case and all it's possibilities to the end and to trust him. He also told me very early on that I may not always agree, or "like" him but he would always work hard for me. And that, he did. When I was sentenced in court, Mr. Roberts did his very best to explain my extenuating circumstances to the Judge and prosecuting attorneys in an effort to obtain the lowest sentence possible under the law, for me. He stood in the line of fire for me and my family that day. I testified in my case and Mr. Robert and his wonderful secretary, Sabina were my life-line. They answered all stressed out emails from prison, made sure to keep in contact with my family and when the big day arrived to present my information in court; on the very first row, giving me a "thumbs up" was none other than Mr. Roberts. He wasn't required to be there, he was there to support his client, me. He went over and beyond the scope of an attorney. He listened to my concerns, allowed me to cry, whine and complain, but, never once did he give up on me. I have been through an amazing journey from indictment, to prison, to back but the salve that allowed me to stand here today, was that very first decision I made to hire a competent attorney that cared about me as a person and most importantly, knew and understood the law. I highly recommend Roberts Law if you value competent, aggressive, confident attorneys when you need them most."

"Patrick Roberts is the smartest guy in the room. After interviewing 10 attorneys it was clear Patrick was the best fit for us.

"Our teenage son was recently accused of sexual assault in a dorm on a college campus. We believed in his innocence, did our research and hired Raleigh's top rated Super Lawyer [publication], A. Patrick Roberts and we were not disappointed. We knew from the consultation that we were in good hands. Mr. Roberts wasted no time obtaining the report and jumping into action. I will never forget the joy I felt in my heart when I received the call informing me that there would be no charges made against our son. His practice is very efficient and receptive in every way. He is the REAL DEAL!"

"We hired Patrick to defend our son against very serious felony charges that we knew to be false. It was the scariest thing to put our trust in someone to help us, especially living out of state, but we were so fortunate that we found Patrick. He showed a tremendous attention to detail, hired skilleds to examine and refute the evidence, and used brilliant strategies to poke holes in the case. After four long years, and many highs and lows, Patrick did what he promised: he took care of our son. Felony charges were reduced to a misdemeanor with no jail time. We will always be grateful to Patrick and his firm for giving our son his life back."

"Patrick and his team are truly top notch. They are professional and committed to understanding you and your case and doing everything possible to reach the best outcome. My son was charged with 3 felonies and the outcome was 1 misdeamenor charge. When you hire Patrick and his team... it helped put my mind at ease during a very stressful time in our lives. He knows everyone in the court system and you can tell he is highly respected by them. He always took the time to explain to us what was going on which I appreciated. Patrick is able to see many different angles for a case and determine the best argument. I would highly recommend Patrick Roberts to anyone in need of a defense lawyer. My son was so inspired by Patrick that he is now considering studying law. "

"I hired Patrick and his firm to represent me in a very sensitive and frightening case. I was able to come in for a meeting immediately and had one of the most honest conversations of my life. He was honest, direct, and kind. There was no hint of judgement from a single person on their staff They fought for my rights in a way I've never seen. I still joke with some close friends about the prowess that man has in a court room. Not only did he fight for me, he also ponted me in the direction of people who could actually help me. His confidence, knowledge, and support led to my charges being dismissed. I will forever keep their business cards on hand, and plan to use them for any legal matters, within their purview, going forward. If you've never done this before, feel hopeless, and don't know what the next step is, please don't look any further. No matter the outcome, you can rest assured your case was handled in the best of ways with Patrick Roberts and the many powerful people he works with."

"We hired Patrick Roberts when our son was accused of a crime. Patrick knew exactly what to do and what the possible outcomes were. We did everything he said and to our relief charges were eventually dropped. He knows the people on the other side having worked with them. He knows what they look for and of course what they don't. When he is involved in the case they respect him. He brings credibility. He knew the long term implications of the charges and did everything, everything he could to give us the best possible outcome. It is a stressful time, the courts move painfully slow. Trust him. Patrick knows what he is doing."

"Patrick Roberts represented me during a very difficult time in my life, in which I was charged with a Federal Class D felony. From the first time my wife and I met Patrick we felt confident that we had found the best lawyer to represent me. I was very scared, as this was my first experience being charged with a federal offense. Patrick is a very brilliant and confident lawyer. All of his office staff are competent , friendly, and very organized. Sabina is a very resourceful paralegal ,and is always available for any questions or concerns,via phone, or e-mail. The communication with the office staff was excellent. The entire office staff go out of their way to treat you with respect, and ensure that you have the best experience possible during a very stressful time. Patrick was always honest with my wife and I, and from the first day we hired him, we felt that he immediately started working on my defense. He takes the time to explain in detail what to expect with the court process, and what he expects the outcome to be. Also, Ben ( lawyer) was great and very patience with me. Patrick was the first lawyer that I spoke to regarding a target letter I received, and I know now that there couldn't have been a better lawyer to have handled my case. My wife and I would like to express our gratitude to Patrick, and to all of his staff in the Raliegh office. Thank you for getting us through the most stressful time of our lives!"

"Patrick's law group was awesome when I was being investigated by the police for allegations made by one of my children. His team was able to present our side of the story and show that these things did not happen as was being alleged. Because of his actions the police decided to not pursue charges. I would hire them again in a heartbeat."

"With the sensitive nature of my case, every step of this process was frightening. Patrick and the wonderful people he works with were kind, caring, and nonjudgmental. He made his role very clear to me from the beginning and promised to do everything he could to help clear my name. And he did!They answered every question I had to the best of their ability. Patrick connected me directly with the people and services outside of his office to help me get my life back. I can honestly say I am better off now than I ever was before. If you are feeling as lost and confused as I was, do not look any further. Patrick Roberts is the man you need to represent you.

"Attorney Roberts traveled out of state to assist with our case. From the beginning Attorney Roberts explained the gravity of the case and the possible outcomes. His work was thorough, extremely professional and of the highest high caliber. We placed our complete trust in his representation. With the final sentencing, even with a mandatory minimum, Attorney Roberts was able to secure a substantially reduced sentence. We are immensely pleased with Attorney Roberts and his work."

"January 2013 our son was charged with a very serious crime that would have resulted in a Life sentence. We were in desperate need of the best legal representation at that time. I googled for the best Defense Attorney in North Carolina and came across Attorney Patrick Roberts. I proceeded to view his website and read his reviews from previous clients. We met with Mr. Roberts to discuss our son's charge and immediately hired him. One of the best decisions I've ever made! Mr. Roberts is very professional, knowledgeable, confident and passionate in his Law practice and FEARLESS in the courtroom. He was always prompt with meetings, phone calls and always straight forward with the good and bad. Nineteen months later, our son's case went to a jury trial and resulted in an Acquittal due to Mr. Roberts OUTSTANDING representation in the courtroom! We would highly refer Attorney Roberts to anyone seeking legal representation. Thanks Attorney Roberts..... You're the best!"

"Law enforcement showed up at our house with a warrant to search the entire premises. They were after my teenage son. They knew every aspect of our life, right down to my wife's health condition. It was horrifying. No arrests were made, but the next 48 hours we did not know what to expect. We stayed close to each other as much as possible, not knowing what was going to happen next. We felt hopeless and felt that in a few days our son would be in prison. I scoured the internet looking for somebody to help. I found Patrick Roberts and noticed he [concentrated] in crimes that my son was accused of. I called his office and he told us to come in right away. Because Mr. Roberts worked as a prosecutor and a criminal defense lawyer in NC, he understands how the investigation process works. He was able to negotiate the best possible outcome for my son. If it were not for the experience and care that Mr. Roberts, my son would not have a future."
