Unmatched service. I definitely appreciate Rob's patience with his clients in addition to his passion to serve. Thanks for everything!- N.S. -
“Simply masterful.”
- D.D.C.In November 2024, I watched Mr. Jenkins cross-examine the Commonwealth of Virginia's most important witness against his client. (This was a high-profile case, and the media reports made it appear that his client had no chance to win.) The witness was a law enforcement officer.
Because I cross-examine people for a living and I study my craft, I know stellar work.
Mr. Jenkins's cross-examination was spectacular. He torpedoed the Commonwealth's case. He turned that witness into a witness for his client. Simply masterful.
