Posted by Manik (Nik) | August 30, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Real Estate

Excellent Well-rounded Attorney. It gives me great pleasure and privilege to give this Review on Atty Robert Sciglimpaglia (Rob)

Professionally, Rob is well qualified and personally, he is compassionate, honest and (most importantly) very reasonable and protective of his clients. I have found Rob to possess very sound judgement in legal matters. So, he is a very good Consultation (and referral) Attorney, as well. I have kno...wn Rob for over 20 years now and he has represented me in almost all areas of legal practice, particularly Real Estate and personal injury - in which he excels. In one Settlement Agreement (where Rob represented me) even the presiding judge characterized him as "a good family man". Therefore, I feel Rob is very trust worthy. I would never take any legal decision or, put my signature on any legal document without consulting with Rob.

EXCELLENT ATTORNEY - THE BEST

He is honest and real. He is effective and efficient, excellent at what he does, because he knows what he is doing ~ whether it is real estate, foreclosure, contract law, personal injury, worker's compensation, or other legal concerns. I have hired him several times. When I need an attorney, he is th...e first I think to hire because he is the best there is.

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.
