This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

not a good attorney

I had very poor experience with this attorney. when he accept my case, he sounds good, after getting my money, then do not answer phone calls for a whole month, and he was not familiar with the case, ending up with finding another attorney after one month and waste one month time. He said he spend t...ime on it but did not do anything useful. His English law understanding was surprisingly an issue. He said he needs to charge even though you do not like it. Luckily, I got my money back through Paypal. The attorney failed.

An Attorney you can count on and will be there for you at all times.

Robert is a very passionate Attorney. He cares for his clients and does his very best to solve what your case requires. I had a wonderful experience in retaining him as my Attorney. I have used other Attorneys in the past but never received the courtesy and the feeling of making me feel so at ease... and confident.

Bankruptcy Case review

Robert is a very dependable, reliable and knowledgeable individual..Makes you feel very comfortable and keeps the case flowing in a timely manner.. We have done business on several occasions now with the same results as mentioned every time...

Very satisfied

I had a problem with a $10,000 debt collection agency . Robert A. Stumpf explained everything in detail, very clear on what my options were and what were the benefits and the downside of every option in my case. At first, he eliminated the wage garnishment that was issued and most imported he got rid... of the debt in a very short period of time. I would strongly recommend Robert A. Stumpf to anyone that needs to deal with debt/bankruptcy issues.

I Can Recommend Him

He was helpful and knowledgeable. He was not overpriced, actually about half the cost of what the other two lawyers I consulted were charging.

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.
