About Roger P.
Roger P. Foley built an uncommon undergraduate combination before he went to law school. He studied criminal justice alongside chemistry, Spanish and English at the University of Alabama at Birmingham.

Foley, P.A., where he has managed a private practice handling a range of criminal matters. Over the years he has handled cases across county courts and state courts, and he has maintained a steady practice through changes in state law and courtroom procedure.
His casework centers on criminal defense. He handles DUI matters and drug-related charges, and has represented clients on other criminal allegations. He often draws on his undergraduate studies in chemistry when cases involve forensic or toxicology questions. He also uses Spanish language skills when a client or witness base benefits from direct communication in that language.
Foley participates in a number of professional organizations tied to criminal defense practice. He holds current memberships in the Florida Bar Association, the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers, the Florida Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers, and the Broward Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers. He also belongs to the Broward County, Dade County and Palm Beach County bar associations. Nationally oriented groups on his list include the National College of DUI Defense, and he is a member of NORML.
