Unbelievable!

I find the below reviews unbelievable! In the end, Mr. Flax sat on my case for 13 years before handing it to a much more competent lawyer, (who finished my case in less than 6 months!). At one point, he even told me that he had gotten involved in a better case. (Read- better paying!) There was a lot ...of advice he should have given but did not. As a result, my case closed for a lesser settlement than it should have. I was disappointed, to say the least!

First class strategy and fair pricing

I have known Bob Flax since the early 1990s and have had several occasions to seek his advice, most recently when I was sued by a high-profile, predatory local attorney. Bob crafted a creative legal strategy that resulted in the lawsuit being withdrawn. His fees are extremely reasonable as well. I... could not recommend him more enthusiastically!

A great attorney with caring staff

I contacted Mr Flax to represent me in a very complex legal case. He and his amazing staff made progress immediately even though it was during the holidays. His knowledge of the subject was vast, and made me feel that he was very capable of handling my case. The case required many hours of preparatio...n and research that resulted in a large bill. Mr Flax allowed me to be flexible with my payment schedule, which in turn kept me in business. He is now the first person I call for legal advice. I would recommend Robert Flax and his caring staff to anyone looking for an attorney that is knowledgeable, compassionate, and hard working.

Will Take Your Money

Mr. Flax gave me a price of $2000 for his services and I increased it by 25% since my case I knew was going to be challenging and mr flax quit without a refund or any legal advice provided.

Great general practice lawyer for a variety of issues

I had a fairly unusual legal problem where I was sued by my former criminal defense attorney for unpaid legal fees. I have an excellent credit rating and did not want a judgment to appear on my credit record and affect my employment background investigations. Moreover, I did not believe that the fe...es sued for were just and previously attempted talking with the law firm suing me, including official meditation, to no avail. At a certain point, I knew that I needed a lawyer at my side, and was able to find Mr. Flax via the Virginia Attorney Referral System. Mr. Flax was very efficient in the communication with me and the opposing party. After I retained Mr. Flax and he communicated relevant concerns about the billing to the opposing party, I was able to receive a full dismissal of the unpaid monies/contract breach lawsuit in just a few days via the non-appearance of the opposing party.
