Dads beware!

Worse attorney in concord! I had consulted three other attorneys in the area who had known about Ms.Robertsons work ethics and had even said that she was friends with opposing counsels attorney! Which now explains the mess that has to be cleaned up by my current attorney who has recommended I file a ...complaint to state bar. She had failed multiple times to respond and or clearly explain what the status of my case was. She kept saying my case was moving at an appropriate rate. Well I had a child support hearing which Ms.Robertson had mentioned I did not have to be present for because of my work schedule. Well the day of the hearing she had taken it upon herself to not update me as to what the outcome was. No phone call, no email, no letter, NOTHING! Two weeks later Ms.Robertson had finally decided to respond to my emails and said what my child support payment was plus $1,100 of backed child support that she had failed to mention when I (the plaintiff) had filed the lawsuit initially which was a year ago. She was extremely unprofessional in her emails and few times I would attempt to discuss the matter with her over the phone. Eventually I had to fire her and hire a new attorney because opposing counsel had informed me multiple times that Ms.Robertson and opposing counsels attorney would discuss issues that were only meant for Ms.Robertson and myself. If you are a dad please look else where for an attorney. This attorney talks a good game but is a poor representive for single fathers who want to protect their children.

Excellent "Father's Advocate" - Thank you for actually representing the father FAIRLY & VIGOROUSLY

Recently, we hired a new lawyer, Jennifer Robertson, to represent my husband in Child Support Court in Cabarrus County, NC. Originating more than 10 years ago, the case has been before the courts numerous times for various reasons. It has been my opinion that Cabarrus County Child Support court is no...toriously unfair to not just him, but most fathers. Jennifer's representation resulted in an actual FAIR decision by Judge Hamby at TRIAL (not just a negotiation with DSS). In the multitude of times appearing before Judge Hamby in a child support trial, this is absolutely the FIRST time we were fairly, competently & thoroughly represented! She listened, didn't just "take the easy road", actually spoke to us on the phone, was very responsive to all questions, and although she deserves a life too worked with us to put together the final pieces of the case trial on a Sunday! She is a fresh breath for Cabarrus County! It does make me wonder if my former opinion of Cabarrus was wrong. Now wondering if the problem was the lawyers, maybe we just needed a GREAT LAWYER! We are loyal clients now! Recommend to everyone, especially dads! Thank you again, Jennifer!

Professional, Knowledgeable,Caring

Jennifer always goes well above and beyond what she is being contracted to do. Looking out for my best interests by using her knowledge and experience to guide me through what is normally a long process by asking questions and getting to the facts in order to write the necessary agreement. I couldn...'t have for a more straight forward cut to the chase approach that accomplished what needed to be done so quickly.

  • 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.
