Great Attorney

Rob has been my attorney for several years. He is thorough, responsive, and extremely attentive to detail. We use Rob for M&A work, contract law and employment law. Our typical process is that we wait until Rob goes on vacation to send him a 200 page contract to review. We still get it returned w...ith thoughts by the next day. Rob has a common sense approach to the advice he gives. He gives advice that makes sense for our business and with our business goals in mind. I highly recommend Rob for any legal work you might have.

A pleasure to work with

I've know Mr. Finkelstein on both a personal and professional level for many years and would not hesitate to hire or recommend him. I recently stated a small business and Mr. Finkelstein prepared my LLC docs, as well as filled patent and trademark docs. He's a pleasure to work with, very knowledgab...le, diligent, professional and provides excellent advice and service. You will not be disappointed on any level hiring Mr. Finkelstein.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Rob is one of those lawyers who is truly passionate about getting the best possible results for his clients, first and foremost. He's the kind of lawyer who will mull over various ideas that match the need at hand, rather than trying for a "one size fits all" response. Toward that end, his approach tends to be strategic and well-considered. He is also a real pleasure to work alongside, and is just plain smart."

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.
