As a college student pursuing a degree in finance, my life was turned upside down when the Providence Police arrested me for a felony. I knew this would have detrimental consequences on my future career and my ability to get into graduate schools. I met with Attorney Humphrey and immediately felt at ease with his professionalism and knowledge of the law. He resolved my case effectively and efficiently, the felony was dismissed, I never sustained a criminal conviction and I never lost my license. My family and I are so thankful for his work on my case. Attorney Humphrey is truly exceptional!- T.A.

HE WROTE THE RHODE ISLAND BOOK ON DUI DEFENSE! When I recently got charged with drunk driving with high BAC readings after hitting a tree, I was referred to Attorney Humphrey by a friend who said he wrote Rhode Island’s book on DUI law. I could not recommend Attorney Humphrey more highly. He was able to get my high BAC readings thrown out so I could have a very successful outcome. When you have a DUI case, call the Man who wrote the Book.- Ross

I've had several lawyers in the past and not one of them did for me what you did. You are the only lawyer that fought for me. Everything you did for me was above and beyond my expectations and I will be forever grateful. You really are a man of your word and if anyone I know ever needs an attorney, you will be the one to call.- Keith

The Pawtucket Police charged me with a second DUI offense within 5 years with readings over .15 BAC. I know I was looking at a minimum mandatory 6 months in jail and a 2 year loss of license. I needed someone who could do the impossible - make the case go away because I couldn't serve jail time because of health issues and I would lose my job if I lost my license. Attorney Humphrey did just that, the impossible. Based on the legal issues he raised, the Prosecution folded on the day of trial and the charges were dismissed. I didn't even receive a traffic ticket. I would highly recommend Attorney Humphrey to anyone charged with a DUI.- George

After being involved in a multi-car accident on 195 in Providence, I tried going it alone with the insurance companies. Fortunately, a family member who Attorney Humphrey had represented in the past referred me to him. Attorney Humphrey and Attorney Petta were with me every step of the way, he negotiated with the other drivers' insurance companies and my insurance company. He even convinced my medical providers to reduce their liens so I got the maximum amount possible as a settlement. I would highly recommend him to friends and family.- Emily

I was involved in an early morning accident involving four mailboxes. After the police responded, I was charged with drunk driving with readings over the legal limit. Attorney Humphrey negotiated with the Prosecutor and convinced him that the breath test results could not come into evidence at trial because of things Attorney Humphrey discovered by reviewing the Police Department DVD. Attorney Humphrey did a great job for me. I did not sustain a criminal conviction, which was my main concern, because if I did I would lose my job. Robert Humphrey, Esq., did a great job for me!- Mike

A late-night drive home after a holiday party resulted in a suspicion of Driving Under the Influence arrest with a high BAC reading as well as several traffic violations. This was a shocking and scary occurrence in my life without a criminal record or traffic violations background. Upon hiring Attorney Humphrey, I immediately felt at ease with his confidence, expert understanding of DUI laws, and long-standing experience with the local court systems and personnel. I could not be more satisfied with the outcome of my case given the severity of the charges. I highly recommend Attorney Humphrey to anyone who is facing an alcohol-related offense.- Scott
