Extremely Kind patient and a realist!

I hired Mr Sidweber years ago and I have to say since then I have had many attorneys and I feel that Mr Sidweber was actually the only attorney that kept in the loop and tried to solve all problems within reason without getting my hopes up. A very down to earth person, always on time and the process ...was as good as it could be within the resources I had to use for my situation. I appreciate everything that Mr sidweber and his Partner Karen did for me. I was always a priority when I was in the office and in the courtroom. You can not ask for anything more.

The Best Lawyer You Could Ask For

Mr. Sidweber is one of the most intelligent and sophisticated individuals I have ever come in contact with, which is why he is he is highly respected amongst his community. He has been my lawyer for many years, getting me through my very long, intense, and painful divorce. He has consistently stuck b...y my side while my ex has gone through a numerous amount of lawyers. Bob's skill set is beyond impeccable. His strategic and analytical mindset, along with his natural persuasiveness, has successfully won every single one of my legal battles. With him by your side, you never have to worry about feeling stressed or intimated walking into the court room or facing your soon-to-be ex with his or her opposing attorney because Bob's resilience and confidence will rest assure you that you are in the best hands possible. I always felt so comfortable consulting with Bob; he always makes the time to pay attention and care for each and every one of his clients by promptly responding with diligence and thoroughness. I wouldn't want anyone else to fight for me and my children, and I can honestly say I trust him with my life. Just know that if you not only have the chance, but the privilege to have Bob represent you, consider yourself a very fortunate person.

SIMPLY THE BEST !!

I can’t say enough about my experience with Attorney Robert Sidweber fighting my case. When you hire him, you are hiring a team of competent individuals who strive for the best outcome for you. They are thorough and responsive, and kept me informed each and every step of the legal process. My only re...gret is that I did not go to him first. It would have saved me a lot of time, money, and aggravation. Don't make the same mistake I did ! Juby D

He is my go to lawyer

I was referred to Bob Sidweber by my trusted CPA of 15 years, who only refers vetted, trustworthy, and competent professionals. After having Bob prepare documents for me and represent me in an unrelated case, that’s exactly the qualities he demonstrated. His advice and fair strategies saved me from... a possible continuous legal battel. I was always connected to Bob immediately when he was in the office, if he was in court he would return my call while on the next break. That’s an old school quality that is almost extinct. His assistant, Wendy Erdmann really helped everything run smoothly. I also noticed that his office staff are extremely friendly and helpful. If I had a negative experience, I would tell you. His price range is normal, you get what you pay for. I am happy with the outcome of both my cases due to Bob Sidweber. He is my go to family Lawyer.

Caring, competent lawyer

I hired Bob for a divorce case that we thought would be straight forward but ended up lasting over a year. All along the way, Bob and his staff kept me informed, responded quickly to my calls, and explained the process and my options very carefully. I always felt that I was more than just a client ...for Bob and that he truly cared about the outcome of my situation. I was fortunate that I worked with him during a very difficult time.

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"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."

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.
