I don’t have enough space to explain everything Bobby had got done for me. I was charged with 2 DUI’s a few weeks apart in rural Iowa. Unfortunately the look back period is 12 years and was 1.5 years from falling off. Allowed the state to charge me with 2 3rd offense DUI’s. I was looking at 2 class D felonies. Bobby stood by me through it all. We stood 2 trials 2 weeks apart. The way he worked through the legal system was unbelievable! As Bobby says every case is different. The first trial I was found guilty. The second trial was a mistrial which prosecution agreed to come down to a 1st offense all minimums and no probation! Unfortunately I was found guilty of the 3rd offense on the first trial. However Bobby knew he had an appeal on that case. Bobby took it to the court of appeals and the conviction was overturned and sent back to district court and agreed to drop the felony and DUI completely to a reckless driving charge. Through all of this and while this was going on I was charge with 2 driving while revoked. He even got those dropped to driving while expired. Through all of this I lost my career. Due to Bobby’s incredible knowledge and determination to win gave me the opportunity to get back into my career. When a person is in this predicament you need a good lawyer who doesn’t talk about what your looking at for punishment during consultation. Every lawyer I talked to Bobby was the only one who didn’t mention anything about the punishment. He develops the facts first. I HAVE NEVER SEEN A LAWYER SOOOO COMFORTABLE IN THE COURT ROOM! It’s like he was born in one. You would have to see him in action to really understand all this, therefore you need to hire him. I attended the court of appeals hearing, which was extremely educational. Bobby destroyed the states argument. He had the assistant attorney General mumbling over his own argument and made him look completely unprepared to the point that the justices were attacking the state. Bobby won every argument he took to the appeals court. No lawyer is a miracle worker and he will not win every case as no one can. But if the opportunity is there, no doubt in my mind this will be the only lawyer in regards to DUI cases you will obtain who will find it and will fight like hell to make it work for you and your family. He deserves 100/100. I have and will continue to refer people to this stud!

Mr. Rehkemper accepted my case when many other attorneys I consulted with expressed discouragement. He was direct and honest from the start and kept me well informed throughout the lawsuit proceedings. Mr. Rehkemper is empathetic and it shows in how he handles your case and treats his clients. Don’t mistake his kindness as weakness though…Mr. Rehkemper can be scrappy! He has all the characteristics you’d want in an attorney fully prepared to represent their client. I will always be thankful for how he assisted me during a rough time. He was successful for me and I would recommend him to anyone needing a great attorney who is going to fight hard for them.

Very professional and did a great job. Hire this law firm if you want the best. I would recommend Robert to anyone that was arrested for an OWI.

Bob was very helpful in my DUI case. While I plead guilty Bob made it as painless as possible. Bob and assistants were very understanding and accommodating.

Robert helped defend me against an OWI first offense. He listened to my viewpoints and then gathered the necessary information from the county law office. He kept me in a positive mood and had several ways to prove my innocence. In the end he got my charge dismissed and got me back to my normal life. I would not think twice using this law firm again. Thank you.

Where do I even start!?!? The best council I've ever needed or had represent me. Not only did he do an amazing job with the task at hand .... But he both extremely professional, and down to earth at the same time. He treated me like a regular human being, which I can't say enough about. He had a large part of my future in his hands, and those hands were kid gloves to me, but strong and tough when representing me. He took care of almost all things needed to deal with my tough circumstances, which allowed me to concentrate on my busy everyday life. There is only light at the end of the tunnel now, and I owe a huge portion of that to Mr. Rehkemper and his AMAZING TEAM! I could not be more grateful. I hope I never need an attorney again .... but if I do, there is absolutely NO QUESTION, who I will reach out to. THANK YOU GRL LAW/ROBERT REHKMPER!

Bob was great he always kept me involved and up to speed with the process of the case. Also laid out some plans for how he would defend the case, and he did everything he could to get my penalties reduced. He would always answer questions on email as well ASAP.

I certainly felt like a fool after I got arrested, but talking with Bobby settled my emotions down. Bobby's clearly an expert, but he doesn't condescend or judge. He listens with empathy and helps with efficiency. Bobby, along with his tremendously kind team, is so easy to access. They want to help and they do. Quite simply, Bobby is the best of the best.
