I was charged with an OVI and Rod guided me through the entire process and reassured me everything would be ok. He definitely knows what he is doing and was able to get my OVI charges dropped. I am so thankful for him and all his help!
Very highly recommend Rod! I was facing a second OVI conviction only a few years after my first. Rod worked strategically for its reduction to a physical control, which was no easy feat with all things considered. From the time Rod and I started working together, he was courteous and professional and patiently answered all of my questions. Communication is important when working with anyone - especially an attorney - and he was sure to excel with this. He was sure to keep me informed throughout the process and take the extra steps necessary. Greatly appreciate what he has done for me and his thoroughness and knowledge of OVI cases. Certainly recommend if you’re in need!
Rod was exceptional. He took the time to provide information, explain the process and constantly was in contact with myself and my son. He explained exactly how the entire process was going to be and it was as he stated. He is a very conscientious and hard working man. He is true to his word and was always positive in how he presented the situation. He is by far the best lawyer and he did exactly what he said he would do. He is a hard worker, very honest and excellent communicator. He made a negative situation as positive of an experience as it could be.
Toward the end of last year I found myself facing charges that if I were convicted of would be career ending and carried significant jail time. My family was in a state of disarray due to the stress associated with the potential severity of the legal outcome. I knew I needed a great attorney, who specialized in legal cases specific to my charges. I cannot imagine having gone through this process without Rod in my corner. From the moment I met with him for our initial consultation I knew he was the right person to help me. He was calm, informative and very efficient at outlining the journey that was in front of us. Although my family and I wanted the quickest resolution possible, Rod explained to us the benefits of letting him navigate the case and warned us that the process could take time. Over the course of many months Rod fought for me, using the facts from my case and evidence, to negotiate a plea deal that was fair and reasonable. Rod’s expertise and compassion, allowed me to keep my freedom and my career that I’ve worked so hard for. Reflecting on the process I realized that never once did I wait more than a few moments for a response to a text or a phone call. Every time I met with him he was always in a great mood and had a unique way of putting my mind at ease. Rod also has a great network of specialists he was able to refer me to along the way that made the process more streamlined and a plea deal easier. Take it from someone who’s back was up against the wall. If you need great legal representation, and someone who will care about you, your family and your rights, choose Rod.

I was wrongly issued a speeding ticket in Highland Hills. Rod guided me through the process of weighing my options and set the course of action. It was resolved easily and fairly. No pompous gestures and empty promises, just solid advice and straightforward dealings.
This was my first experience with a lawyer and Rod made it as easy and stress free as possible. He was quick to respond to any questions with throurough answers, which helped give me peace of mind leading to my court date. Throught the entire process Rod went above and beyond to make sure I was informed and at ease. He was able to resolve my legal matters and follow through on all promises. I would highly recommend this lawyer to anyone looking for legal representation. Thanks again Rod!
The best lawyer in South Euclid Ohio. Rod helped us tremendously, we were in Cleveland South Euclid/Beachwood for a funeral and Sunday morning on our way to breakfast after a devastating loss we were stopped by a Beachwood police officer for going 42 miles an hour on Harvard Road . Rod was professional, available, answered all of her questions, and dealt with the ticket professionally and successfully reduced are fine by 85%. Fair, effective, and an all around great guy. PS - has a great sense of humor.
I was accused of committing a hit skip, and the stress of hearing the penalties made me lose a lot of sleep. Then I called Mr. Mastandrea and he assured me everything would work out for the best. He kept his word and got the hit skip dismissed and all I had to do was pay court costs and a small fine. If you want peace of mind in the time leading up to your court date hire Rod Mastandrea.
