Robert Douglas Stein

Initially, Mr. Stein was a superstar, saying all the right things, telling me what I needed to hear until I paid him 1,500 through a grant I received to help me with my divorce to go to a support hearing that got rescheduled due to his scheduling conflict and not being prepared. He did not look at do...cuments that were sent for review and when documents were typed they were often wrong and I had to correct them. He had everything he needed and at first, seemed like the perfect attorney for my case, as time went on he made excuses, stopped listening to my warnings, concerns, and feelings because everything was at a reduced or flat rate so you could afford to be represented with other services to be added later if necessary. I tried to fire him which he was fine with until I asked for a partial refund since he did not do what he was hired to do, but instead did other things that cost me time. When I told him his services were no longer needed he decided to stay on as counsel of record until I found someone else to represent me keeping me from seeking services from legal aid. He was also sick when you needed his help, made excuses, and as a survivor of domestic abuse I did not get the representation I really needed or deserved. In family law, you need someone who will fight for you, not with you, or against you... maybe in other areas of law, he is okay and should focus only on those areas. If you are looking for family law/divorce, custody, support look elsewhere, I beg you. Always check any documents he sends you for accuracy, and if he starts feeling sick, you are in trouble because he will have several oversights, file motions he is not prepared for that will cost you time and more money, especially if you have to find another attorney to remove him from your case so you can finally get the help you need. He will take your money, provide you with shoddy legal representation since he is trying to get to know the other attorneys, judges, etc since he is somewhat new to the area... If I could give him no stars I would but that is not an option, do your homework for family law and stay far, far, away from Mr. Stein, I was so shocked by his attitude and cavalier treatment of me that I waited a bit before posting as not to do so in anger. This was difficult for me because I try to believe the best in everyone. You want the best help and sometimes you can't afford to spend a lot of money, that does not mean you should be treated the way I was. I would not recommend him for anything, you can always find another attorney, you can't however get back time and money that were wasted so look at all reviews before making this choice.

I hired attorney Robert Stein a month ago and he did a fantastic job at the court room with my case, my daughter father took me there requesting child custody and a motion for violating court agreement, I brought 2 witnesses and thanks to the job Robert did coming with really great questions to my wi...tnesses and to myself, we could win the case and the judge found him lying and denying his petition, I’m really satisfied with the job, effort and the knowledge he has in this cases, I trust him 100% and I will keep him to help me filing my request to the court to change parental responsibility shares and schedule and get to be the primary custodial parent, I trust him with the next step and his advice, I’m proud of him! Congratulations and highly recommend him

Bob is kind compassionate and friendly As well as being very knowledgeable He knows his stuff and he will fight for you with everything he’s got. He fights for you like is fighting for his own family. He was hired in our family for a difficult divorce situation complex with custody and child issues.... He takes the time to listen to details he pays attention and follows through. Couldn’t be more pleased.
