Robert Ernenwein provided excellent legal representation for several members of my family over the past four years. In each instance he was extremely responsive and knowledgeable-even making himself available in the middle of the night. He was successful in having the charges dismissed and demonstrated close ties with the court staff and prosecutors who clearly respect him. His office was very easy to work with and followed up with all communications very promptly. I could not recommend him more highly. If you need help defending yourself or a family member, call him!
Robert experience far exceeds other attorneys. He's genuine, knowledgable, and compassionate. I am very grateful for his dedication to my case from beginning to end. As a person and attorney, he is second to none. I owe him my freedom and my second chance.
I was in a difficult relationship that unfortunately lead to a confrontation and my arrest. I was charged in a case in LAX court with domestic violence. Having no idea what to do I began asking friends if anyone knew who I could turn to. I was referred to Robert and called him really having no idea where to start. At the onset with my first call, I spoke with Kristi of his office. It was at that point I became aware as to why Mr. Ernenwein came highly recommended. It starts with his office. The conversation I had with her was a snapshot of what was to follow. She listened to me with genuine empathy, care and concern. She told me Robert and everyone in the office would be there for me. I could tell it wasn’t a typical sales pitch. In fact, she and later Robert recommended I speak to at least a few lawyers before making a decision. I set an appointment with Robert. He took the time and patiently listened to my story. He got involved and the first positive step was getting the case down to a misdemeanor. He explained to me that although he couldn’t promise anything he felt I had a good case of self defense and that he would do everything he could to keep me from having a conviction. I should say that I had nothing on my record up to this point. Over about 5 months Robert went to court for me. I wasn’t exactly patient, but he told me it wasn’t like television or the movies and that getting it done would take time. At the end of it all I was required to do was 12 anger management classes and my case was dismissed. Before I hired Robert I spoke with other lawyers who told me in domestic violence cases there was no chance of a dismissal once the case was in court and that my only chance was trial and the odds were not good. Robert proved them wrong. Robert speaks with a language you can understand and has a phenomenal threshold of patience. He clearly and concisely explained to me the process and his strategy all along the way. He gave me his cell phone number and always got back to me by text or return call. I am so grateful to have this behind me. I am so thankful for Robert. I remember when I hired him it was difficult, he was more expensive than other quotes I had received, but he is worth it. When you need help under really tough circumstances and you are looking for compassion, care, experience and most of all results, Robert is the person I would, and have, recommended.
It is difficult to come up with the right words to express our complete gratitude to Robert and his entire legal staff for all they did to get our son through the most horrific time in his life. He recently experienced a mental health episode that resulted in serious criminal charges and would have ended his professional career. We live out of state and had no idea where to turn to get our son the best legal representation. We were frantically searching for criminal attorneys in the Los Angeles area and were not happy with what seemed to be mostly disingenuous prospects until we came across the Ernenwein Mathes Law website. The videos on this website explained many of the types of cases he represents and we liked his calm and intelligent delivery. We contacted him and were impressed with the time he took to meet with our son to discuss the details of the case and the next steps involved. Throughout the entire process he and his staff demonstrated integrity, honesty and quick responses to our numerous questions and concerns. Nick Jonsson, Operations Manager was extremely helpful and kind when coordinating the numerous conference calls and necessary documentation throughout the case. Most importantly, Robert was successful in obtaining a mental health diversion for our son’s case that when completed will result in a complete expungement of his charges. We are sure this would not have occurred without his vast knowledge and experience with the court officials in the area. We highly recommend Robert and his legal team and would honestly give him more than a five star rating if it were possible. Do not hesitate to hire him if you ever find that you are in need of a criminal defense attorney.
Robert Ernenwein and Michelle Mathes are unmatched in their knowledge and prowess over the legal system. While I interacted with both attorneys, I was represented primarily by Michelle. She was a pleasure to work with and was responsive and helpful in explaining issues and translating legal jargon into layman's terms. She is professional, reliable, and goes beyond the extra mile to get the job done. It is clear that both Michelle and Robert care about the clients that they represent, and it shows in their attitudes and the results that they produce. All of the people at Ernenwein & Mathes that I interacted with were pleasant and helpful. When it came to scheduling and general questions, Nick was attentive, friendly, and even took the time to respond to my concerns when on vacation in Germany. My case was dismissed and my record sealed through diversion that they succeeded in getting granted.
Robert and his excellent staff earned the appreciation of my family for helping us get through a difficult matter by being completely professional, courteous, responsive, caring and most importantly by being very competent at their jobs. Not only did Robert guide us through the complexities of the court system successfully from beginning to end, but he also went above and beyond to help me avoid civil issues stemming from my criminal case with his wise advice. Highly recommended,
It's rarely good when you have to contact an attorney. From my first consultation with Mr. Ernenwein, I can tell he is someone you can count on. He responds promptly and of course is very professional and knowledgeable drawing from decades of experience in criminal defense and previously as a DA. He is well rooted in the community. He explained the process, then thoroughly described the possible outcomes and his strategy. Knowing I have his backup is very reassuring.
If I could leave more than 5 stars, I would... I found Robert with a Google search of attorney's near the Torrance Courthouse. He was 1 of 3 that I either left a voicemail with, or filled out a webform for. He was the first to respond. He responded that same evening (with his partner, Michelle, on the line as well), listened to my story for 10 minutes, asked some pointed questions, and after 25min on a late evening call we had an entire legal strategy in place to have my felony reduced and/ or dismissed. And that's exactly what happened over the next 6 weeks. All without me ever having to travel to CA and appear in court (I live in CO). I can not recommend this team highly enough. They were knowledgeable, professional, empathetic, attentive, and most importantly, highly effective.
Robert and his legal team are excellent. There is no doubt that I would hire him again if I needed serious legal help. He will make you feel like you're his number one priority. A family member faced serious criminal charges. During the initial consultation, he stood out as being more competent, experienced, and assured handling our case than other attorneys. He is upfront and matter of fact but also very personable and patient. At every step, Robert and his team walked us through our options and prepared us for plausible outcomes. He took the time to explain to us the legal proceedings, answer our never ending questions, and share his reasoning throughout our ordeal. He and his team were always very organized and ready to go. Ultimately, his representation made us all feel less anxious and more optimistic during a very difficult period. Most importantly, he was successful in getting all charges dropped for our relative. Thank you Robert and team!!!
I called to inquire about a damage claim on my car and Robert was nice enough to give me great advice on what to do. I feel that he would be an awesome attorney for any legal problem his advice was right on the money.
