Highly recommended

Review Rob had helped me tremendously with my divorce. Helping with any ways he can make the process easier, negotiating deals, and keeping in communication with me. Even after divorce proceedings was very helpful with any questions I had. It can be a very overwhelming process. He took the time to ...explain things very clearly and I always felt confident after speaking with him and I understood exactly what was going on. He really is a pleasure to work with. I have heard great things about him and now I can say the same. He is very professional, knowledgeable, hard working, respectful and over all great person. I would highly recommend him for any type of legal services.

Highly recomended

I am sure that all divorces are different and mine is of no exception. Rob, Kevin and Desiree are a team of caring professionals that I can trust with the most intimate details of my case. Their many years of experience have become apparent when I have faced obstacles for the first time that they hav...e worked through countless times before. Desiree has been instrumental in guiding me through each milestone of the process. She is both firm and compassionate as required while helping me navigate through a disdainful divorce. Kevin's attention to the details and facts show up best when in a room calmly disputing the opposition. In a process that can be lengthy and frustrating at times; Rob, Kevin and Desiree have a level of regard and tenacity that allows me to be confident that they are fighting for the best possible outcome for me. I would highly recommend them to anyone.

They have made the Divorce Process less Dreadful!

Rob, Kevin and Desiree have been assisting me with my contentious divorce. They are a compassionate, knowledgeable, and dedicated team. I often call the office being agitated, confused and defeated. By the end of the call, I am feeling positive, clear headed, and usually laughing. Unlike other firms,... the do answer calls and emails. In court, Kevin has impressively maintained his composure during difficult rebuttals with the opposing attorney. They understand the specific details of my situation and proved to be conscientious about the outcome and my well-being after my divorce is finalized. I highly recommend this team of hard-working professionals!

The best

I hired Rob Venturo because I needed a very experienced, knowledgeable attorney. I was the best decision I could have made. I already had two attorneys prior to hiring Rob and it was not a good experience. I'm so happy I found Rob and his amazing staff including Anna. I continue to use Rob and wo...uld recommend him to anyone needing the best family law/divorce attorney.

Couldn’t be happier

I was in a two-year legal battle over a custody and child support with my very wealthy ex-husband. Rob was so knowledgeable not only about the laws but about the tax returns that when he finally got in front of the judge it only took one hour for us to walk out of there with a final decision/settleme...nt that we were very happy with. His paralegal name Anna is the sweetest woman I know and she couldn’t have been more helpful. She would get in touch with me matter what day of the week or what time of the day to make sure that I knew what I needed to know and make sure everything was in order. I was very comfortable and felt very confident and at ease with Rob representing me. He is actually the second attorney I hired because I did not feel comfortable with the first one. The level of trust and security I felt with Rob, and the confidence I had in the skills was matched by the final outcome. I gave him five stars only because that’s the highest I can give. He deserves 1 million and so this is paralegal Anna. I highly highly highly recommend him.
