Law Office of Robert S Toale

About

Criminal law firm

Story

Handling criminal defense cases in Orleans, Jefferson, St. Tammany, St. Charles, and Plaquemines parishes.

Robert Toale knew from a young age that he wanted to be a criminal defense lawyer. In fact, he has never worked for a prosecutor’s office or a law firm. After graduating law school, Robert started his own practice and began accepting appointments to criminal cases in Jefferson Parish.

Robert was one of the first to be offered a contract position as a public defender after the overhaul of the public defender system in Jefferson Parish where he tried up to two jury trials a week. Although he is no longer a public defender, Robert’s practice is almost exclusively focused on criminal law.

Robert has 35 years of experience as a criminal defense attorney. In that time, he has tried over 100 jury trials and represented over 5,000 clients. Robert has handled a number of high-profile cases: Vernon Williams, Patricia Van Winkle, Thomas Abadie, Joel Durhan, Walter Porter, Jerry Dantin, and Sonny Allen.

Through these experiences, he became proficient at handling the media, sometimes appearing on local television and radio three or four times a week. Robert has also been interviewed and quoted by CBS News, the ABA Journal, the Times-Picayune, Newsweek, and the National Law Journal.

Robert has also received national recognition for his work in criminal defense. In 2014, Robert was elected to the 2014-2017 National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers’ board of directors. He said of his appointment, “I am honored and thrilled to be able to serve as a board member of the NACDL and look forward to being on the cutting edge of working to improve our system of justice.”

In addition to serving on the board of directors, Robert was previously the president of the Louisiana Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers. As president, he pushed to end the death penalty and increase funding for public defenders. Robert always fights for his clients’ rights both in and out of the courtroom.

Kara Larson took my case and I am so grateful that she did. She not only filed the motions needed, had the courage to argue the civil rights aspect of the case even though it was a controversial and distasteful demonstration to some, but she also explained my rights to me and her strategy every step of the way. Having never been arrested before I was very intimidated by my situation but Kara Larson put me at ease and ultimately got my case dismissed. Friendly, talented, and passionate about what she is doing. 10/10 would hire again.

Robert Toale is an unbelievable trial attorney. He has represented me and numerous employees and friends over the past 30 years for different types of cases. He only does criminal defense now but we begged him last year to represent us when we were sued by an employee. He spent hours preparing our witnesses for trial. We know he cared about us and he has a strong drive to win. He anticipated the other side’s every move. He was worth every penny we paid him and we won last month. The judge threw out the case and we paid nothing. He was amazing in court, the way he asked the other side’s witnesses questions and objected to the other lawyer’s questions. He made them look like the liars they were. He has always treated me and everyone I know fairly. We hired him about five years after he graduated from law school to collect bad debts for us and we call him whenever we need a lawyer. He and his office have always been friendly, available and very competent. His associate Kara has been available to us when Robert was not available. She was also a great aid during the trial.

Robert Toale was hired to represent me in a criminal case in Terrebonne parish. Based on his online profile and what my friend read about him she hired him. She was quoted a fee that was more than any other lawyer was asking for, but because she wanted me home and thought he could do the job, she went with him. He was paid over 10 thousand and I was sent a lawyer that worked for him or with him Alex Kriksciun. He explained his bosses history and how good they were and what they were going to do for me. Well, nothing ever happened. Some motions were put in but I never went for any of them. All that was told to me was I was being railroaded. So 6 months later I'm told that they need more money to continue on my case. I don't know why or what they did. I never met Toale, he never was in court on my behalf once, from what I gather he was going to conventions and meetings. Well if he wasn't planning on being my lawyer or represent me to the fullest, he should not have taken my case. Alex went to court on my behalf maybe 2 or 3 times for a bond reduction that did not benefit me at all, and then he made one more appearance. Other than that useless motions were put in. So I sat in jail and then was taken to court to plead guilty on all charges. No kind of benefit came from hiring Robert Toale. As a first time offender I was told it was in my best interest to plead guilty to all charges. I never was able to pay them anymore money but at least Alex showed up to my plea date. Turns out that many of the people that were arrested along with me got much better deals, even those with criminal records and one who was a repeat offender came out better than me. The owner of the business I worked for got money back that was confiscated and she also got the same amount of time I received only she had a public defender. So I should of just went with a state provided attorney and I would of most likely gotten a better deal. Also employees that worked at another store were released on bond and never returned to jail. So their lawyers were able to work out a great deal for them. All I was told by my lawyer was "No one is getting a deal." Besides making the choice to work at that store around that product the worst choice I made was allowing Robert Toale to "work" on the case. I would/could never recommend him.
