To say that Mr. Robert Ambrose is Awe-inspiring, astonishing and fearsome lawyer, is an understatement! Robert is not only an intelligent, meticulous, brilliant, respectful, a great listener, a great judge of personality, the most caring and brilliant lawyer I found, but also a fantastic human being, who truly cares about his clients, a man with compassion, has an amazing sense of justice, i.e. truth vs. lies. Mr. Ambrose has a quite unique approach to practicing law. Robert invites you in to his office, listens intently to your case, then makes an educated decision whether he accepts to help you or not. Robert does not accept every case, a sign of a great lawyer, it speaks volumes of integrity, in a world full of ambulance chasers and incompetent lawyers. The man has very high moral standards who cares about his community, and wants to dispense justice for his fellow-man/woman community. Bob is fair, he is a great humanitarian, does not assume anything, is very factual and highly impartial. In Bob's world, only facts speak, and Loudly. I came to Bob with an alleged Domestic Abuse case, which in today's world, as we all know, a man particularly (could be a woman) is 99% of the time guilty period, regardless! DA cases are very tricky because they are solely based on he said, she said statements. Bob very carefully listened, weighed the facts, looked me straight in the eye with his piercing eyes, and accepted my case. I had one condition, that I get my day in court, Bob made sure I did, he made 1000% sure I did. Bob always communicated my options clearly, he communicated all plea offers from the state, carefully explained all possible angles, and consequences, pro and con. Mr. Ambrose meticulously navigated that legal ship like the best of professional captains in very dark, murky and stormy waters of alleged abuse accusations, vindictiveness, and many many lies. Robert was brilliant, picked the facts with a toothpick, exposed all the glaring inconsistencies, and handled the trial as if he was the accused, a professional who safely but swiftly brought it to a just end. NOT GUILTY ON ALL COUNTS.words you want to hear when you are fighting for your name, smeared character and life. If you want the best criminal lawyer in Minneapolis, a lawyer that cares, a lawyer that believes in you, and above all, a brilliant factual modern times Sherlock Holmes, hire Robert Ambrose. After all, he helped acquit me in one of the most difficult cases to win, a vindictive, riddled with lies Domestic Abuse he said she said case, Brilliant! Brilliant! Brilliant!

Mr. Ambrose took my case and helped me get the absolute best outcome that I could get! He was available, answered all of my questions and explained what we could expect, options, and he knew the law and all the staff. Highly recommend. It's my hopes that by writing this review that others who need help and want the best, get the best by hiring Mr. Ambrose to represent them :)

People make mistakes in life. I'm am so thankful that I can find someone like Robert to represent me. Robert was understanding, empathetic, straight forward, and honest about my situation. He didn't give me false hope and lead me to slaughter. He laid out the guidelines for me to get the best outcome i could for my trial. We had open communication and he was trasparent in every step of the criminal process. He is trustful, involved, and overall a stand up individual. I talked to multiple lawyers before i got to Robert and they all left me uneasy whether from their ingenuine statements of concern or their promises of fixing my issue but not giving me any clear pathway to succeeding. Now, enough about Robert the person. Let's talk about what he did for me. I was charged with a 3rd dwi when i only had two. They took away my car and suspended my license for 3 years off of a clerical error. He did everything in his power to try and ensure that i wouldn't need to pay him 350 for my car to be released. Sadly it didn't work simply because of the limitations of the outsourcing of state prosecutors in Ramsey County. After all avenues were exhausted we then had to file a motion. I appreciate the effort he put in to save me any type of money because Dwi's are definitely not expensive. He was able to recommend courses of actions to give me the best chance of getting the least impactful sentence. After trial i truly believe i got the best offer for my situation and i don't believe i would have gotten it with anyone else. It's hard to find someone who is has great skill in their profession and ethical. Robert is one of those rare cases. I hope nothing but the best for his professional life and personal life. I hope that i will never get into my situation ever again, but my mind is at ease knowing that i have someone like Robert out there willing to fight for me.

Bob is a good listener. I felt as though he had my best interest at heart. I received great results in my situation. I felt like I had a say and was involved with my process. Bob explains things in simple terms so you don't get lost in legal jargon. He takes the time to lay things out. Thanks, Bob!

Robert responded to an inquiry and request in a matter of hours despite the fact he knew I would never be a client. As a man who takes great pride in his own customer service standards, I have to come here to say that any attorney that cares enough to help out someone he'll make no money on is definitely worth your time and investment. It's a matter of character, and after contacting hundreds of attorneys in the last month, I can, unequivocally, say that Robert has the highest character of anyone I've contacted so far. Character matters. If he were in my jurisdiction, he would've been hired immediately due to his responsiveness, tact, and understanding.

On July of this year, I was pulled over and was arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol. I blew a 0.12 on the breatholizer. I was denied a public defender and knew I had to hire an attorney at that point because im under a program called Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA). DACA allows me to live in the United States legally, and by having a DWI on my record, it would be dificault for my application get approved. So, after a few weeks of searching, my girlfriend came across Mr. Ambrose. I had the chance to sit with him and I explaine my case. From the get go Mr. Ambrose made me feel comferrable and explained in depth what he will do for me to help win my case. Mr. Ambrose genuinely makes you feel that he's there for you and not for the money. At the end, I was charged with careless driving. Im very please with the results of my case. I would very much recommend Mr. Ambrose to my friends and family, and those with DACA.

Mr. Ambrose has proven himself to be the most hard working and honest attorney that I have ever met. He was knowledgeable in the legal process and guided us every step of the way, keeping us informed at all times. He quickly took the legal steps necessary to prevent my "down time" into extending over the weekend. We were treated with respect and never felt criticized or judged. He was professional and always responded quickly. So happy that we found and hired Robert Ambrose!

A few years ago, I was pulled over for a broken taillight which resulted in a DUI offense. My Driver's License was revoked and I then had moved out of state. Later on, I looked into clearing this mess up only to find out there was a bench warrant for my arrest and some hefty fines to pay. I was also now living in Los Angeles and this needed to take place at the courthouse in Minnesota. They also wanted me to appear in person with a chance of being taking into custody. I knew next to nothing about how I was supposed to handle the matter and really despaired the whole situation. I searched for attorneys in the area and based on good reviews, so I decided to try Robert Ambrose. I gave him a call (on a weekend). He answered promptly, ascertained the facts of the situation and advised me of the next steps to take. To make a long story short, I hired him the following Monday and was very happy with both his manner and the results obtained in the end. He was able to get the charges waived, kept me informed during the process and was objective throughout. Never sugarcoating, nor exaggerating expectations to press me into a particular course of action. He has helped to regain my driving privileges and clear my name, all without spending any time in jail. I’d highly recommend Robert Ambrose to anyone in a bad situation.

Robert was fantastic. He got me the best possible deal for my circumstances. I was dealing with a possession charges and he was able to get me a continuance for dismissa, aka the best possible outcome. He was very timely with all email and text responses. He was always friendly and respectful with my situation.
