Divorce

Robert accommodated us. We needed a second opinion and he was right there for us with some great advice. He really does know the ins and outs with divorce. He makes you feel that he understands and will definitely fight for you. It's a difficult time as it is, but it's nice to know that someone as ...knowledgeable as Robert is, is ready to fight for you. We are highly considering changing lawyers.

Amazing Lawyer!! Highly recommend!!

Mr. Menders was amazing and was able to handle my divorce in a timely manner. I was able to get a consultation the same week, given a run down on what the divorce process would look like and etc. He’s also VERY supportive and knowledgeable. He ensures that he gets back to you soon. I thought getting ...a divorce would be a long, drawn out process, but with Mr. Menders, I didn’t have to stress about anything. It was great working with you. Thank you so much for all of your help!

Excellent Attorney, Supportive of YOU

Robert Menders and his legal assistant Hailey, are a pleasure to work with. I had a rather odd divorce case that he assisted me with earlier this year. He was a wonderful help! I also reached out for legal advice a few months after my first case and he was ready to help me again. I'd suggest him to a...nyone looking for an attorney in a divorce case because he has YOUR best interest in mind and supports YOU. As I mentioned, my case was odd, but he went above and beyond his job requirements as my attorney to help me and offered great advice. He is very responsive and on top of everything he says he will do for you. I greatly respect him and Hailey. I wish them both the best.

Great Lawyer

Robert has been amazing to have representing me during this custody battle. He knows what steps to take and what to argue. I have yet to be anything short of 100% satisfied. My children are everything to me and I wouldn't want just anyone fighting for us. Robert has and continues to keep my children ...and I's best interest his number 1 priority.

A good attorney I once underestimated

Some years ago I went through a terrible divorce and then after the judgement a lot of things happened to me that I never thought could happen. For a while I blamed my attorney for not warning me sufficiently, but eventually I realized: most of that went to my own inability to understand or deal with... what was going on, and what could happen post-divorce, and my own inability to know how to respond when I ran out of resources. In retrospect I realized that no, this guy fought for me like an avenging angel, and he got things other attorneys wouldn't have even tried for, and he really works to have your back. I've re-hired this guy and I am looking forward to working with him again. He's the guy I remembered--a great attorney.

  • 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.
