You Want This LAWYER

Mr. Robert Hoekstra took my messy case and went far above my expectations. When an other attorney couldn't get me anything after 2 years Mr. Hoekstra closed me out with a win and money in my pocket in only a few months. I don't know how he did it but he did. He returned every phone call and e-mail qu...ickly, stayed in contact with me to keep me updated, and worked with integrity. I felt he truly cared about my situation, and I feel he had my best interest first the entire time. I could not be more pleased with Mr. Hoekstra. He kept every promise, and was straight forward with realistic expectations the entire time. He delivered exactly what he said he would. I would not want any other attorney. I am thankful for having had the privilege to do business with Robert Hoekstra. You will not be disappointed.

Dedicated Workers Compensation attorney

Robert is a devoted, client centric attorney. I have been battling a spiteful and contentious WC carrier for eight years--five of them unrepresented--just to get my basic medical care needs met. When he took over my case, he immediately began to wreak significant change . He has kept communications o...pen, kept me involved in decision making and has been respectful of my opinions every step of the way. I am grateful.

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.
