Divorce and Separation 80%

Divorces, both uncontested and contested make up the majority of my practice. I help clients get through simple divorces, marked by negotiated agreements. I represent clients whose divorces need to be aggressively negotiated, and litigated in Family Court. Court. Complex divorces with issues of high net income, pensions, valuation of businesses, child custody and parenting or visitation issues are resolved through the use of experts, as necessary. I also handle modifications of alimony, as well

This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Excellent experience with an excellent attorney

I was very pleased to have Robin as my attorney. She was considerate of my difficult family situation and was tuff enough to argue motions in Court. I was very happy with the settlement she negotiated for me and glad I did not have to have a trial. Afterwards, she arranged for the purchase of my ne...w home.I definitely recommend her as a responsive,reasonable and skilled attorney

Very Good with People

I met with two other lawyers before hiring Robin. She actually didn't promise to do what others had promised, and I was surprised. I felt that she was more of a straight shooter, hired her and approved of the way things went. She's nice in person but was firm and correct when dealing with other lawye...rs. I recommend her very much if you're looking for a lawyer who's smart and tough but not too slick.

Contracts

Robin negotiated several yearly contracts for my husband’s business. She was tough and astute.and negotiated many fine points which later would have been proven problematic had she not done so. That attention to detail saved profits made on those contracts.

Divorce

Robin made it easy to get my divorce, I found her to be patient and kind toward me, and tough in Court. This was important because I was distraught and my husband was out to get me. We went to Court a couple of times, and we won. Robin worked with my husband's nasty attorney to get me a great divo...rce agreement. i think she is a great attorney and I was lucky to have her! I definitely recommend her. I got more than I thought I would.
