Integrity

During 2016, during one of my darkest times through a divorce, had lost all hope. Wasnt sure how the legal system worked or if I could afford. After calling around for FREE legal advice, Don and his team came highly regarded for his Social Services through a variety of Columbus, Ohio non profits a...nd outreaches. He mentored, guided and helped me to focus on what was right, not what was said or accused, and to this day my life has gotten better. My family, work life is balanced. I have hope in the justice system and individuals now more than ever. Once again, found myself in a dark time do to a broken leg, and Don stepped in (no pun) and saved the day. Looking forward to collaborating with him on my own social causes and outreach as I recover and build my new life. Thank you Don

Grandparents rights

We found Don Roberts to be compassionate and attentive as we talked thru the specifics of our case. Don gave us a realistic expectation of the outcome and he delivered. He help us to understand what we could legally expect and help us to obtain a well negotiated agreement. Thank you Don.

The Best in the Business

I hired Mr. Roberst on a Friday to represent me the following Tuesday, February 7, 2017 concerning a civil protection order. He had his assistant attempt to serve subpoenas the same day, but was unsuccessful. On Sunday, Mr. Roberts delivered the subpoena himself. How many attorneys do you know that w...ould work on a Sunday? Do I need to say more? Well, that Tuesday, the case was dismissed. Mr. Roberts is by far one of the most compassionate and the best attorney that I have personally hired! And I know that his rates are very reasonable.

Passionate and strategic

I'll start by stating that Don was referred to me by my Daycare's assistant. She was NOT represented by Don, her X was. She told me that he was a shark, but for the benefit of the father's rights...because she knows I'm a good Dad. There should be no scenario in a legal separation & divorce wher...e either party gets 100% of what they wanted...it has to be about the kids (if you have them). I have heard many horror stories of divorce and the father living in his car... In my scenario, I am more than satisfied given all of the potential outcomes. Don kept me in check at the appropriate moments and coached me through what is a more than difficult time. I would easily recommend Don to anyone seeking WHAT IS MORALLY RIGHT!

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.
