Posted by Tangela | November 18, 2020 | Hired Attorney | Discrimination

Assistant Director of Field Education

Rob took my case of employment discrimination after many lawyers advised me to seek their services if/when my employer terminated me. I would have made all kinds of mistakes that would have weakened my case had I took heed to their advice. I received a free consultation from Rob and he immediately sa...w the merits of my case and took me on as a client. Rob was very responsive and gave me excellent guidance and advice throughout the entire ordeal. I asked him to be upfront with me throughout the process and he stayed true to this request. He and his staff were very professional and kept me informed about the prospect of my case at every juncture. He handled me with care when he had to give undesirable news, but was ALWAYS able to give me a perspective from a sound legal standpoint. We were successful in reaching a settlement. I would highly recommend Rob to any of my family/friends/associates without hesitation!

Excellent Attorney

Rob recently helped me with a difficult work-related matter, and I found him to be extremely professional and very responsive. Rob worked through my case efficiently and was always available to answer my questions and address my concerns. I could not have gotten through my ordeal without him and I ...highly recommend him to anyone. Rob is an honest and direct professional who really cares about his clients, and I am proud to call him my attorney!

Practical and Compassionate

Rob represented me in an employment matter. He was flexible about when and where to meet, listened to me and really heard me and understood my priorities. He was very effective negotiating a solution that I found very fair extremely quickly (one of my priorities). I highly recommend him.

Excellent, trusted and diligent

I have known Rob for several years now. I have always known Rob to be direct, up-front and honest. He has always worked hard to earn and maintain my trust which, truth be told, is NOT easy. I highly recommend Rob, no matter what your issue may be.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I have had the pleasure/privilege of working with Rob as co-counsel on numerous matters as well as referring numerous matters to him. Rob is competent, kind, intelligent and likeable - a rare combination. Numerous clients have gone out of their way to thank me for referring them to him. As co-counsel, Rob has the rare gift of balancing his abilities with mine. I truly feel that any attorney who has the opportunity of working with Rob will become a better lawyer and a better person. Rob is also reachable. He always returns my calls in a timely manner and takes his time to ensure that he is doing the right thing in the right way. Referred clients have also reported to me that Rob is reachable. Clients truly appreciate this, as a major complaint is that lawyers do not return phone calls. When it comes to personal injury cases, or any matter in Rob's wheelhouse, he is my guy."

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2014.

Suspension issued in PA, 2014

updated on 12/15/2018

Suspended means an attorney lost his or her license to practice law for a period of time. The attorney typically returns to practicing law when the suspension expires.

Robert’s comment:

“It is true that my license was suspended in 2014, but after a lengthy battle, my license was restored to practice. I am excited to be here to zealously represent my clients and fight for their justice, just as hard as I fought for my own.”
