Great Lawyer!

Mr. Poydasheff and Caroline are rockstars! I had an uncontested divorce from a USAF member and they both helped to guide and represent me as we worked through negotiations with my ex-husband. Rob and Caroline were always super quick, efficient, and kind when responding to me, going above and beyond... by helping me with external events affected by my separation. They got a GREAT deal in the divorce, better than I thought, and I don't think it would have been possible without it. Let them advocate for you, it's worth it!

Excellent Attorney

I hired Mr. Poydasheff for my divorce. From the beginning, he was caring and understanding to what I was going through. He explained everything throughout the process and was always available. Even though my husband and I reconciled, I’m glad I chose Mr. Poydasheff. Caroline is also amazing.

Best lawyer and best possible experience!

Working with Rob was a fantastic experience from beginning to end! He let me know immediately that I was his client and he would look out for my best interest at all times and he definitely did that He was very straightforward and thorough in providing answers to all of my many questions. He also m...ade sure to provide information and answers I did not know I needed proving to be a true legal counsel. He made certain that I knew what to expect during every step of the process and communicated updates frequently. In all the business aspect of my case he was compassionate treating me with respect and making it apparent I was a person and not just a case. Rob was thorough and efficient and obtained the best outcome for me in my divorce. I have recommended Rob to friends and continue to so that they can be aware who will provide the best representation possible.

A great choice

I hired Mr Poydasheff for a child custody modification. Throughout the entire process, I felt that he genuinely had my best interest in mind. He is also very through. Even though I had gone through a very similar process with my divorce (using a different attorney ) Mr Poydasheff made sure I was well... aware of the process I was entering. I even learned quite a bit more than I thought I already knew.
