This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Per curium affirmed

Mr. Hauser represented me in a probate case. We obtained a favorable judgement at the trial court. Opposing party then appealed and was blown away at appeals court. Rob had an amazing command and recall of the facts and law of the case and clearly laid out my options for proceeding. His representa...tion was thorough and efficient. I heartily recommend he and his team.

Thorough and Honest

Handled an Appeal and case before the FL Supreme Court. Very professional and realistic in his approach. Ruling was favorable.

Relationship: Worked for lawyer

"I have had the privilege of knowing Mr. Hauser for many years. Prior to becoming an attorney, I had the opportunity to work as a paralegal at his firm. His intelligence, legal knowledge, and experience are exceptionally impressive and well-respected by both his peers and his clients. He is an amazing attorney, well-versed, well-respected, and a strong and formidable legal advocate for his clients. He is a consummate professional and one of the finest attorneys that I have encountered in over 20 years in the legal profession."

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.
