Did an excellent job for my Wife's third DUI
Mr. Robinson was always there for my Wife and I while she was being tortured by the Government for her third DUI over a fifteen year time frame. She was looking at serving a one year sentence. She did get the mandatory minimum sentence of 100 days, but it could have been so much worse that. Gregory was always attentive and responded very quickly to all of or questions during the proceedings. After serving some of her time Gregory was able to get the last third of her sentence on Home Detention. This required and extra appearance and a lot of preparation. But Mr. Robinson was all over it when the appropriate time came. I highly recommend Mr. Robinson as he obviously understands the courts and judges here in the Denver metro area. His Office is easily accessible in downtown Denver. If I ever get into any trouble of my own I am calling Mr. Robinson FIRST. I learned over the course of this difficult time that if we placed our trust in him and followed his instructions everything was going to be OK. Today it is OK. We can’t thank you enough Greg! Thank you very much for everything you did for us.
