Caring, competent lawyer
I hired Bob for a divorce case that we thought would be straight forward but ended up lasting over a year.

"I have worked with Bob Sidweber as opposing lawyer in a very complex high net worth case for almost two years. He has at all times been professional and very knowledgable about very unique issues of law. Through his professionalism and collaboration the parties have been able to achieve a fair and reasonable settlement for each of our clients. Very good lawyer."
"I have known Robert Sidweber for many years in fact decades. I have been practice myself for 36 years and over the years have had many occasions to have cases in which we were on opposite sides. He is a tough litigator and formidable opponent and yet always conducts himself reasonably and resolves cases appropriately when able to do so. I endorse him as a Family lawyer."
"I endorse this lawyer. Over the years I have had the opportunity to work both with, and against, Bob Sidweber on different family law cases. A consummate professional, he is highly organized, meticulous, and detail oriented. While Bob is a forceful advocate for his clients--and certainly a formidable adversary--he is honorable, always a gentleman, and doesn't waste time or foment unnecessary litigation with provocative posturing."

Whether resolving amicably, or litigating a case with Bob Sidweber, you can trust he will practice with professionalism and the upmost respect for the law and the parties involved."
