Wonderful Lawyer

Robert Caplan was absolutely fantastic! He represented me in a CPO case and made the entire process so much easier. He was incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and communicative, always taking the time to answer my questions and truly listening to what I had to say. I felt supported every step of ...the way and confident knowing he had my back. Thanks to his hard work and dedication, the case was dismissed. I couldn’t be happier with the outcome and highly recommend Robert Caplan to anyone in need of an attorney who truly cares!

Amazing lawyer

I went through several lawyers in my custody battle before I found Bob Caplan, and the difference in representation was immediately noticeable. Bob spent countless hours fighting for both of my children, and the outcome exceeded my expectations. He was very invested in my case, didn’t make any promis...es that he couldn’t keep, and he genuinely cared about my family’s future. In the courtroom, he was able to accurately depict what was going on with my childrens’ mother and was able to win several cases that my ex had put against me. I have been through 3 Ohio lawyers and none of them can hold a candle to Bob’s professionalism and work ethic. He has over 20 years of experience fighting for Ohio families and it shows. I would definitely recommend Bob to anyone looking for a lawyer. He will see you through the most challenging time of your life and will be standing next to you when your problems are resolved.

Great Lawyer

Robert was very professional and knowledgeable. He explained everything in a way that I was able to understand. His fees were reasonable and he did a great job for me.

Great divorce attorney

Mr. Caplan was there for me during an emotionally taxing divorce/custody battle. He took the time to explain confusing legal issues for me, and in the end he reached a very favorable settlement on my behalf. Couldn't have asked for more from Bob...

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.
