Robert Scott Carlson, an excellent attorney, highly recommended
Rob has represented us in a very professional manner as defendants in probation of a will that included claims of undue influence, lack of capacity, fraud, and breach of fiduciary duty. His representation has always been first-class and we felt confident from the beginning that he truly excels in hi...
"I have had the pleasure of working with Rob on several cases over the past few years. He is smart, hard working and has an uncanny attention to detail. He is a good lawyer, and I highly recommend him for any litigation-related matter."

"I can highly recommend Robert. We worked together on a case recently that had a favorable outcome. Without Robert's attention to the minute details, the case would have been very difficult to win. I can recommend Robert to anyone looking for assistance in a civil litigation matter, and most certainly in a probate proceeding."
"Rob has handled quite a few cases for my clients, and I have worked with him on several of those cases. He is definitely one of my main "go to" guys when I am referring clients to a litigator. He is very thorough and knows when to be aggressive. I strongly recommend him as a civil litigator, especially in the areas of fiduciary litigation, business litigation, and domestic relations."
"Rob is a bright, quick-witted lawyer who will aggressively pursue the best interests of his cient. He is very comfortable handling complex legal matters with complicated fact patterns, and he is not afraid to blaze new trails in areas of the law devoid of much guiding case law. He is reasonable to deal with and maintains the highest ethical and professional standards. I endorse him without hesitation."

Rob was a very strong advocate for his clients throughout the case, and was an excellent strategist with many creative ideas. I thoroughly enjoyed working with him, and he did a tremendous job for his clients. I do not hestitate in recommending Rob."

"Rob Carlson is an exceptional attorney. He serves his clients with a strong commitment to advocacy and displays the highest ethical and professional standards. He has my highest recommendation."
"I worked with Rob for about 5 years at Caldwell & Watson. He is certainly a lawyer with whom you "want to go war." We worked on numerous estate and business litigation matters together. Rob is knowledgeable about the law and understands the bottom line: how to get results for his client. I have never hesitated to recommend Rob to handle even the most complex matters."
