Great attonery

Mr. Hannan is a great attorney before I even hired him he answered every question and spent a good amount of time on the phone with me reassuring me of my rights and what can be done and what can’t be done when it came to custody of my children he’s a fantastic attorney and a great asset to Brevard C...ounty’s legal system

Courtoom King

I sought out Mr. Hannan's representation initially to get back timesharing with my son. I had three attorneys drop me, or do half-ass work. My situation was that i was incarcerated for a dui with serious bodily injury (a felony), unable to afford representation for a hearing to be held while i was aw...ay, and foolishly (without knowing the actual definition) gave my ex parental responsibly.I had no idea that meant basically signing over my rights. I did several months of researching different attorneys and from the moment I first met with Mr. Hannan, I knew that I NEEDED him on my case if I wanted any chance at getting my 50/50 timesharing back. As we sit now, the case is pending trial, and i have re-implemented a holiday schedule, and got back to one day less than 50/50 every week. Its the aggressiveness, quick thinking, and respectfully assertive demeanor that allows him to control that courtroom. Prior to passing away my father was an attorney, so i am familiar with all sorts of different ones, the ones that win cases, and the ones who dont. Mr. Robert Hannan is a fighter, unafraid to go against the big names. Most important, is the constant communication. Every email sent during the week was responded to within 24 hours, and surprisingly enough in an emergency situation, the weekend as well. My fiance Is now going to change from the second best rated attorney in orlando, to Mr. Hannan because she has seen the way he handles our case in court. I Very highly recommend Mr. Hannan. Schedule a consultation and you will have your chance to see what I mean.

He'll get it done

I'm a veteran, so I'll get right to the point, and spare you the frills. My wife of 15 yrs decided to leave me and my son but still sought access to him. She made the entire process a complete nightmare which went on and on for 3 years. I got Robert involved and we made a plan. That plan was changed ...and changed again on the fly through good strategy sessions and team effort between myself, Robert, Elise, and their staff. In the end I came away with a settlement that none of us thought would be possible when we first met, and my son is safe. I will say Robert and I are very similar personality types which caused us to but heads like a couple of Bull Ram's in the mountains, but we always came to conclusions, and solutions, based on logic and respect for each other. I would highly recommend Robert Hannan if you find yourself in a bad situation you cannot see yourself getting clear of. He will come through.

#WINNING!

Sometimes your custody battle is horrific. You toss and turn, unable to sleep- then suddenly you hear your phone ping. It’s your attorney, and he’s assuring you he’s got your back and you’re in a good position. Robert is that guy. You won’t find that elsewhere. Robert is calm and strategic. Wh...en you become impulsive and unhinged from the uncertainty, he’ll be the voice of reason reminding you of the long game. Robert has a great rapport with those in the legal field. You’ll feel proud walking into court when you see how well he’s respected. He is seasoned in family law, and well versed in navigating the subtleties of intricate cases. His experience has taught him to be pragmatic and patient. Your bitter ex may keep filing motions, trying to drag your name through the mud; Robert won’t allow it. He excels at communicating in court on your behalf. So when the ex is the mistake that keeps on giving, Robert will be the one to keep you #winning! In short, Robert is like hiring your Dad—but with a Law Degree. (And I would not give that compliment to anyone!) In fact, I’d make that his new slogan; because no one wants an inexperienced lawyer. Stop scrolling friends, you found your guy.

An amazing lawyer!! A true gem

I hired Robert back in 2009. I've been litigating and fighting a horrific custody battle since 2007. Robert was referred to me by another lawyer who was on my case. I brought Robert on as lead counsel. Roberts knowledge of law is outstanding. He can literally cite case law of the top of his brain wit...h such ease. During my still ongoing issues with my ex, Robert showed commitment to my case and what is good and just. He won a venue hearing along with a permanent DVI which judges do not hand out easily. Robert litigates with such style, grace and expert knowledge of the law. Sadly I am back in court battling the same custody issues. Robert moved to Melbourne so I had to find another attorney whom I am also very happy with. Needless to say, Robert has not abandoned my case which is the oldest on going case in the history of Broward County where Robert previously practiced law full-time. He does still have some cases here that he works on but his time here is very limited. Robert with his knowledge of my case since 2009 remains on the sidelines. He goes out of his way to call my current lawyer who is also amazing, to consult with him on the history of my case because my custody case is an extremely high conflict case. I'll keep it at that because it would be inappropriate to say anything about my ex but this battle hasn't stopped since 2007. Enough said about that. Throughout my time with Robert as my lead counsel, he was always diligent and on top of his game. My case literally consumed his large practice here in Broward and with a large case load he never once faltered or let me and my girls fall to the waist side. Once you hire Robert, you have a true defender of what's right. Robert is the kind of lawyer who will take the time to explain the law to you every step of the way. He tells it like it is and explains all options. He does not try to drag a case out for money. He always looks at the best interest of children and sources out ways to resolve a case without extensive litigation. Unfortunately my ex and I do not see eye to eye and we continue to wind up in court. I am truly blessed to have found Robert. Did I mention his knowledge? Well lets just say this, its more then just knowledge of the law. He has litigated against expert witnesses for me and blew me away of his knowledge in science and many other fields. He's gone up against some tough ones and always prevailed. If you are looking for a SUPER LAWYER which Robert holds the award to for several years, hire him! Trust me, you will receive thee best support from a very well known attorney from Broward County. I would like to say thank you Robert for all you have done for me and my children and continue to do. You are a true, passionate and concerned attorney.
