shame on you for lying to me you cost me dearly

Shame on you for telling me that if I showed you I was defrauded that you would pursue the wrongdoers. Shame on you for participating in a scheme. Shame on you for allowing these people to get away with what they did to my relative. Shame on you for offering me a pittance of a settlement to cover ...up your actions and participation in a crime. Shame on you for sticking up for the bad apples you did. YOU ARE O NE OF THEM..... STEER CLEAR OF THIS ATTORNEY.................................

Posted by anonymous | December 02, 2014 | Wrongful Death

Rob fought for us!

After our son was killed, we needed a good lawyer to fight for us and believe in us. He battled to get us a very good settlement in our wrongful death case. If you need a lawyer who will go the extra mile for you, Rob is that lawyer!

"I have known Rob Kaufman since we were classmates in law school some forty years ago. Over the years, I have witnessed Rob develop into a fantastic attorney. I can wholeheartedly say that Rob Kaufman is one of the finest litigators in Atlanta. Rob is a commanding, skilled, gifted and seasoned courtroom advocate. Equally impressive is Rob's masterful skills in dealing and bargaining with his opposing adversaries in attempting to reach settlements of his cases. Rob is blessed with this talent as he indeed is the consummate negotiator. I unequivocally recommend Rob Kaufman to anyone seeking a formidable attorney to handle his/her civil matter."

Avvo Rating

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.
