About

I'm a retired Marine Corps infantry officer, judge advocate and military judge who practices criminal defense law in state and federal courts out of my law firm located in the high moutains of northwestern North Carolina.  I still consult on and handle military criminal defense cases, as well.  My primary focus is on felonies involving drug offenses, sex offenses, assaultive behavior offenses, fraud-based offenses, and white collar crime offenses.  The great majority of my cases are in North Carolina (with 85 percent of my efforts devoted to federal matters), though I have and am still willing to travel to other states and overseas to handle criminal matters.

In the late 1980s, Captain Nunley of the Marines was assigned to guide my Commanding Officer through the morass of more than two dozen courts-martial (the military version of a felony trial). His advice was cogent, appropriate, timely and dead accurate. In the courtroom his obvious preparation showed he owned the issue. I have no doubt that the intervening years have only added to his experience and skill. I recommend him without reservation.

Attorney Nunley did an outstanding job in my case, working to get the exact outcome I wanted. His connections and experienced were worth the fee. I recommend him for your high stakes cases.

Mr. Nunley did an outstanding job with my case. He is professional, understanding, knowledgeable and caring. Not only is he an outstanding lawyer but a good person also. I highly recommend Mr Nunley.

Was charged with felony larceny of a firearm and possession of a firearm by felon. I was initially given a court appointed attorney who tried to get me to take an open plea on my first appearance. I spoke with Mr. Nunley to get a second opinion, was very impressed, and hired him immediately. After reviewing the case and evidence (or lack thereof) he recommended not to agree to a plea but to take it to trial in Superior court if necessary. After 2 continuances, all charges were dismissed in district court. I am very thankful to Mr. Nunley. His knowledge and expertise are unmatched and I would highly recommend him to anyone.

Left a message for Mr. Nunley for a second opinion regarding my son's criminal case. He responded after hours (8:00 pm) and spoke openly and at length regarding the case, refusing to charge for his services. He could have had me come to his office and charged for services, and could have promised a better result with his office but did not. I was pleased with this integrity and openness.

Robert Nunley is wonderful person and unequivocally the best choice in Raleigh for a criminal defense lawyer. Always a gentleman under all circumstances, he is genuinely interested in you and your case. Robert is understanding of circumstances that may lead to criminal charges. If you have dealt with many lawyers, you know how more than a few act like they are not even listening to your story and do not return your calls. This is never the case with Robert. He knows his way around the court system and will fight to achieve the best possible outcome in your case. I am so grateful to him, I did not serve any time or even probation.

Mr. Nunley is an exceptional attorney. He met with us on very short notice, and provided expert counsel on exactly what to do and how to proceed. He quickly grasped the situation, the important vs. non-important, and expertly guided us through the situation. We gained complete resolution within days and achieved the very best possible outcome. i highly recommend Mr. Nunley.

When a family member was thrust into the world of criminal charges we were scarred and didn't know where to turn, we had no previous experience with it. Robert came recommended through a friend and helped support, inform and settle our nerves during the process. His calm demeanor and knowledge helped us through the legal process and more importantly, the emotional rollercoaster a situation like this brings. Robert and his staff were always professional, courteous and kind.

Robert covers every base "In your case"....He truly is a force to be reckoned with. His knowledge of the Law is truly phenomenal...He sure does know how to "do his homework" in his effort to serve you. This world should be blessed with more people as smart, and helpful as Robert is. Thank you so much! [client email address removed]

Watch Mr. Nunley in the courtroom was like watching a man among boys. He is crafty, eloquent and has a fluency of the law only available to those lawyers that have a gift...no amount of studying or experience can compare - and he has both, so he is a triple threat. Worth every penny and more.
