Roberta Lynn Tarkan

We had a very sensitive tenant/landlord situation and contacted Roberta for advice. She took our call on a Sunday evening and provided excellent legal and practical advice for handling the situation with a major "corporate" landlord. Based on this legal consultation, we were able to resolve our situa...tion in one day and did not need to go to court. We avoided costly litigation, aggravation and achieved the results we wanted, thanks to Roberta's counsel. If you want an attorney with a great sense of urgency and excellent experience, contact Roberta!

I regret hiring Roberta she is very unprofessional and just insults you when you don’t agree with her, yells at you on the phone and hangs up abruptly,she quoted me a price and I gave her half of the $$ and then tried to change the price. Insulted me by saying that the the people that were taking me... to court sounded more credible than I did! Never listened to what I said, she did not want to go to court and ended up settling fof the amount of the security because she kept arguing with me every time I tried to explain my side of the story. I agreed to the unjust settlement that she got me because I just wanted to end dealing with her! I basically wasted my $$$ and she caused me a tremendous amount of stress!! Do yourself a favor and stay away from her, wether you win or lose it is important that the attorney you are paying to represent you treats you with courtesy and respect! She is angry $$$ hungry woman that should not be dealing with the public!

I've dealt with Real Estate attorneys in the JC area for about 12 years now. She takes the cake, she was egregiously boastful about her ability to win. She ended up losing because of her overconfidence and condescending demeanor with the prosecutor. In the end she still won because she got my $50...0 up front. She is extremely rude, and not worth the fees she gets (upfront).

Pros: 1. Professional, returns both phone calls & emails immediately 2. Easy to interact and no issues in settlement 3. Tells the strength and weakness of your case upfront 4. She is busy lawyer and gives you the confidence to go ahead with the case 5. I didn’t ask her, but she gave good discou...nt and returned the settlement money on weekend. Cons: 1. Forgets the discussed points and have to remind her 2. Asked for additional documents as last moment and will request you to bring the documents (it might be just for me) 3. You might feel that she charges more 4. Appointment was postponed couple of times due to her busy schedule. Advice: Please write down everything you want to discuss with her and handover a copy to her.

This is a lawyer that doesn't know the law, cannot and donot review a document, cannot consantrate on a conversation, extremely disorganized, comes to court with absolutely zero preparation, blames everybody else for her failures, and has the nerve to be abusive and charge his customers excessively f...or losing court cases. Disaster from whichever angle you look at it; absolutely nothing positive with this lawyer. I have been a head of a large business for over 30 years, worked with many lawyers on various corporate law issues and countless business agreements - never I was encountered with someone so clueless about her profession until I met Roberta Tarkan.
