Would highly recommend

Ms. Bobman consulted with me for a divorce. I found her to be knowledgeable, efficient, and kind. With her expert guidance, my situation was able to be resolved much faster than I had anticipated. I would recommend her services to anyone who is going through the difficulties of a divorce.

Rochelle Bobman

Rochelle was very professional and helpful during an emotional custody battle. She knew the law and kept us informed every step of the way of progress in our case. Rochelle was responsive and did exactly what she said she would do for us.

I definitely recommend this lawyer

I have had an excellent experience working with this lawyer. Her legal ability and ethical standards have been demonstrated multiple times during my divorce case. She always responds to my requests very promptly, within the day or next day; this alone is of great confort as, when facing a divorce, ...personal aspects make the legal issues seem all the more complex and frightening. She explains the situations very clearly, so that I can evaluate and make choices easily; I never felt as I didn't know what was happening. Numerous times during the course of the many months we've worked together, she has demonstrated her legal skill to achieve actions from the other party and results. I have felt that she always keeps my best interest in mind and looks for the most efficient solution when advising me. Trust and peace of mind is also a fundamental aspect, in my opinion, when dealing with divorce as most clients are probably like me, hurt and having a hard time trusting anyone. As the case is still ongoing I do not want to give any specifics at the moment but will be happy to do so in the future. At a difficult time in my life, she has been invaluable, made the process much easier than I expected and I most definitely recommend her.

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.
