Helpful and responsive

Joshua was great in assisting me with paperwork that I needed to get done before getting married. He kept in touch with me and was very responsive to all my emails and calls, which I greatly appreciated. He was very good at communicating with opposing counsel about following up with paperwork and was... very very thorough with everything. Overall, I'm very pleased with the experience.

Outstanding Work!!

Josh did an awesome job in winning my case! With 2 days notice of a court hearing, he worked tirelessly, well into the evening hours to pull everything together. He was very knowledgeable, extremely responsive and cared about me. My case was unique in that I had to hire 3 different attorneys in 3 ...different states. Josh did a wonderful job of coordinating with the other attorneys to get what he needed. He is an amazing attorney, and I would highly recommend him in any family law matter! Thank you, Josh!

Excellent Legal Representation

After a few years of being in and out of court for custodial issues I was starting to get discouraged with all of the legal representation on my end as well as the opposing party. I came across Mr. Robbins and gave his office a call. After a brief consultation with him I immediately felt like there ...was hope. Finally I found a lawyer who was willing to take the time to get to know my case on a more personal level. He listened to what I had to say and took into consideration what it was I was hoping to get out of the case rather than just tell me what I wanted to hear and then say something completely different once in the court room. I highly recommend working with Mr. Robbins and wish I found him four years ago when first starting my journey in court.

Went above and beyond!

We found our downsizing home. A beautiful little 19th century cottage tucked into a cul-de-sac in a wonderful neighborhood. Everything was perfect... until we met our new frenemy Fannie Mae. We needed to get utility easements, ASAP. We needed a maintenance agreement for the cul-de-sac. We needed docu...mentation on the oil a careless deliveryman had spilled in the basement years ago. Through it all, Josh was indefatigable, very available, and helped us especially in key areas: * Understanding our legal obligations and options. * Keeping us well informed of the progress on the complex negotiations with the sellers and their neighbors (our neighbors, now). * Most importantly, advocating for us in a way that accomplished our goals -- a clean title to the house with all the necessary easements and agreements -- in a style that focused on the common goal, so we, the sellers, and our new neighbors all came out feeling good about it. And I forgot to mention that we were on a very tight timeline. Josh put his best effort into this deal, and we couldn't be happier with his services.

Expertise and caring - a perfect combination!

Josh Robbins helped with an estate planning issue that came up for my mom. A club that had gone bankrupt owed her money and Josh looked at the law and communicated with the new club to ensure that what they were doing was legal and that the eventual payout would go to either her of her heirs. Josh ha...ndled this expertly and thoroughly. He left no stone unturned and was amazing at keeping the ball rolling and keeping me informed. His follow through and responsiveness let me know that all of our interests were being fought for. He was willing to play hardball if necessary. In addition Josh is very personable and caring. He really cares about service and gets back to you promptly and professionally with accurate and helpful information.
