About

Need a criminal law specialist? Most lawyers are not certified as criminal law specialists, even if they only practice criminal law. Stephen G. Cobb is certified.Stephen G. Cobb is the only certified criminal trial lawyer in a three county area. He has practiced criminal law exclusively since 1990 and opened his own firm in 1997. In 2002, he became certified in criminal trial law by the Florida Bar, purusant to the Rules of the Florida Supreme Court and administered by the Florida Bar Board of Legal Education and Specialization. Board Certification is what the legal profession uses to rate lawyers in Florida. Less than 1% of the lawyers in Florida are officially Bar Certified as specialists in criminal law, and almost 90% of lawyers attempting to pass the certification exam the last time it was given, failed. If speaking with an attorney about a criminal case, the first question you should ask before scheduing an appointment is very simple: are you certified as a specialist in criminal law?

I am writing this to say Thank You to Attorney Stephen Cobb and express my foremost gratitude and recommendation of him as a Criminal Law Attorney. Initially, Mr. Cobb is Florida Bar Board Certified as a Specialist in Criminal Trial Law, being very difficult to attain and achieved by few attorneys. He only practices criminal law, giving him a keen focus in this area of law. He has remarkable knowledge of the technical criminal laws and rules, which is very comforting as a client. He is very detail oriented, obtains extensive background information, develops a comprehensive plan of action for his cases, and is always very well prepared for court. He knows the criminal justice system and parties very well, allowing him to develop a practical, common sense approach to his cases, and be an excellent negotiator and strategist. Mr. Cobb is very much a real person and has compassion and patience towards his clients, yet still tells it like it is in a straightforward and honest manner. He is very easy to talk to and returns phone calls and emails in a timely manner. He is professional, respectful, honest, and even-tempered in court, yet is a tough and persistent adversary and negotiator, and is well respected by judges and his peers. He has extensive knowledge of mental health issues, laws, and resources related to criminal law, including brain imaging, evaluations, and treatment, allowing him to help people with their legal issues, as well as their overall wellbeing. Despite his vast experience and expertise, he is still a competitive and reasonably-priced professional. He goes above and beyond and treats his clients like a whole person, in a system which can be frightening, rigid, and impersonal. In sum, I give my utmost appreciation and recommendation to Attorney Stephen Cobb as an exceptional, highly skilled, and dedicated Criminal Law specialist attorney.

Mr. Cobb is the Ultimate Professional. I placed all my faith and trust in him and he did not let me down. He kept me informed of everything that was occurring during my case and I could not be more satisfied with the final outcome. If you need a trustworthy, professional and honest attorney, Mr. Cobb is your man!

Out of the three law firms I called . Mr. Cobb was the only one who returned my call personally. In fact Mr.Cobb called me back twice in one day. He was very well informed and answered all of my questions and concerns I had regarding my situation. Hands down best legal advise I've ever received. I believe that Mr. Cobb genuinely cares about the best interests for his clients and has remarkable knowledge of our judicial system here in the state of Florida. I don't always hire attorneys, but if I did Mr. Cobb would be the one.

In short, Mr. Cobb knows his territory and will make sure that you do as well. He guided my family and I toward a successful outcome. Mr. Cobb is well seasoned. He provides everything you need to correctly defend yourself. *highly recommended*

When my son was accused of a crime he did not commit, I wanted the best for his defense and Stephen Cobb is by far the best. He is extremely knowledgeable in his field. He is the definition of a tiger in the courtroom. He was able to take my son from a VERY long prison sentence, that he didn't deserve, to probation. What should have been an open and shut case was drug out for almost 10 months and he never charged me more money. He also sent us to the Amen Clinic, and while I had my reservations about that, it turned out to be great. Things were discovered about my son that only brain imaging could find. Now, Miss Janice, she is wonderful and sweet woman with so much patience. My emails and calls always returned in a timely manner. She is by far the most sweet yet professional woman I have ever had the pleasure of getting to know. If we had to do this all over again, I would choose Stephen Cobb. Thank you so much Mr. Cobb and Miss Janice for your time and outstanding service to my son and for always believing in him. I could never thank you enough. To say that I am eternally grateful wouldn't define it.

If you have found yourself in an unfortunate legal situation, Stephen G. Cobb should be the only name on your list of potential attorneys for representation. His legal representaion was the highest caliber and beyond exceptional. He was knowledgeable and informative throughout the process and his courtroom presence could only be described as "a legal powerhouse." I was very impressed by his professionalism, standard of excellence, and courtroom presence. He was clearly well-respected and known by the court officials and expeditiously handled my case effectively. Not only did he achieve the dismissal that I was hopeful for, he made the process as simplistic as possible and went above and beyond to achieve the best possible results. If you would like the confidence and self-assurance that you have hired the Florida panhandles best/most effective attorney for your case, look no further, Stephen Cobb is the clear choice. Thank you Mr. Cobb for your hard work and dedication during my case. I cannot thank you enough.

I could not have been more fortunate to have stumbled across Stephen Cobb's name when trying to find a lawyer for my misdemeanor case. He and his assistant Janice were extremely professional, honest, and sincere. Not to mention, it was very affordable and worth every penny spent. Both Stephen and Janice returned my calls promptly and thoroughly. The most comforting part was knowing that my case was in great hands and throughout the process I felt Stephen Cobb would be successful in getting the outcome I had hoped to achieve - and he did!

I ended up in a bad set of circumstances because of a State Driver's License computer error. I am a CDL holder so protecting my license status and not having a criminal record is vital my ability to drive & earn an income. Mr. Cobb was EXTREMELY knowledgeable in traffic & criminal law and was able to come up with the best route to win the case. He represented me tenaciously against the State of Florida and the case was dismissed. I could not be any more thankful that I had the opportunity to be represented by Mr. Cobb.

I was very fortunate to have rendered Mr. Cobbs service . Due to multiple DUI's I was facing a substantial amount of jail time. One of Mr Cobbs request is that I go to Amen clinic for Brian imaging. Not only was this a tremendous help for me it also was a major contributor in my jail sentences. I also would like to thank Janice for her hard work and constant communication over the few months. I highly recommend Mr. Cobb.
