Emotional Event

Bob Reeve walked my daughter and I through the process of finalizing the sale of my home/closing during a very difficult time for us. My husband had passed away and I was anxious to close the book on the sale. He assisted/advised us every step of the way during the final stages of the process. He wa...s extremely thorough and articulated the steps of the closing process clearly, making sure we understood every detail. Concerned about the emotionality of the event, he took his time and maintained a supportive tone throughout and that was decidedly what I remember most about the exchanges we had. I would certainly recommend him for hire. He is not only extremely knowledgable but also most assuredly sensitive to "this" client's needs.

A fine attorney and a gentleman

Being in business for 30 years, I've had the distinct displeasure of dealing with attorneys all of my life. They are usually unresponsive to telephone calls, dismissive of specific questions they believe superflous, and arrogant to the point where the client is put on the defensive. Some are ac...tually incompetent and failed to protect my interests. This attorney completely rewrites the book on how to deal with clients. He responds to telephone calls within 24 hours, even if the call was placed to voicemail ON A SATURDAY! He understands the law precisely and will go above and beyond what the client believes is necessary to ensure that the client is fully protected. Finally, he will always consider the business needs of the client before determining what legal services are necessary and those are provided quickly and professionally. I strongly support the use of this attorney for any legal matters and he is the only attorney that I have encountered in 30 years for which I can state this. B.C.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
