Great Communication and Knowledge of Family Law

Could not have been more impressed with Attorney Robidas. Amazing work explaining things easily and making sure I had everything I needed. Stayed on top of things at all times and got things remedied quickly. Would definitely hire again if the need ever arose.

Supportive and everything I needed in a difficult time

Amy and her assistant were professionaly empathetic, being supportive every step of the way over a custody modification and establishment of child support. Amy was realistic with expectations while mediating our issues. All documents she composed were clear and completed in a timely manner. During me...diation, she was able to anticipate my needs before I was able to vocalize them. She remembered small details from each of our conversations which greatly helped during mediation. I appreciate her time and dedication and will hire her again if necessary in the future.

Highy Recommend!

Amy helped me through a difficult parental rights and responsibilities case that took a great deal of time and effort. She was always very prompt and thorough in her responses and explained each step in the court process. I was very happy with the outcome and highly recommend her to anyone in need of... an attorney!

I could not ask for a more genuine, thoughtful, professional attorney

I went through two very frustrating custody proceedings before hiring Amy, with attorneys who did not have the skills to out-maneuver my manipulative ex. I came out of those feeling powerless and was extremely hesitant to enter the court system again. But working with Amy was a completely different e...xperience. From the beginning, she made me feel empowered to ask for meaningful, positive change for my kids—and she helped me get it. Amy’s level of professionalism is unmatched. When she says she’ll call you at 2:00, your phone rings at 2:00 on the dot, and she is there with her full attention. She listens carefully, remembers all the important details, and gives just the right amount of really good advice. She also deals skillfully with the other side…she knows when to speak up and push for something and when to sit back and wait it out. If being in court weren’t so stressful it would be a joy to watch Amy work. She earned my full trust, respect, and gratitude.
