So far so good

I’ve met with Robert Menders twice, he was courteous, prompt, direct, respectful, and knowledgeable. He gave me suggestions and options on how I could proceed with my case. He suggested that I could handle the letter writing myself and save money or he explained I could hire him to do that, speaking ...clearly that would be a larger cost. He provided a name of a specialist to pursue to assist me with a non legal challenge. He gave me two free consultations. As I move forward, I feel comfortable in using his services.

Honorable, Honest, & No Nonsense!

I was referred to Robert by a family friend who said he was an honorable and honest lawyer who was a great mediator but who got tough when getting tough was needed...I think you can imagine my skepticism right? But when I met him, I was truly lost, confused, and felt like the world was collapsing in... on me and Robert said something that stuck with me through the whole process and is still with me today. He said, "This may not be easy and it may take time but it will get done, the sun will rise tomorrow and you will be able to move on with your life. When you hire me, you take care of the money and leave the rest to me." So I did and he did and sometimes it was hard when my husband was being a jerk and it felt like it took forever because of the stupid mandatory waiting periods but I am divorced now and the sun still rises and I have custody of my son and I got to stay in my home and my son and I get support and he gets to see his dad and slowly but surely we are all moving on with our lives and I know that Robert got me the best deal that I could have gotten and more than I thought and I'm so grateful and I will recommend him a hundred times over to anyone who really needs a good lawyer because there are so many crappy lawyers out there. I never really understood why they called lawyers counselors until I met Robert, but knowing him makes it all make more sense.

Great Attorney

I would recommend Mr. Menders to anyone with a domestic case. He has been an absolute Angel through-out my case. He kept me 100% informed at all times. Even though he doesn't return your calls ASAP he makes sure your always in tune on what is going on. His secretary now is sweet and helps wheneve...r Mr. Menders is busy or in court. She will have your questions answered if she is unsure within reasonable time as well. They are a great duo!! Mr. Menders works around the clock and if you have a problem he even lets you call his personal cell if you need anything, which most attorneys could care less once they leave their office, they are off the clock.. not Robert! He helped me get everything I asked for in my divorce and then some. He works and gets all of your paperwork done in great timing, and works with you on your payments if you're having a "rough spot" he doesn't just throw you to the wolves! I appreciate everything he has done for me and I know if I need anything in the future I will be going straight to him. Highly Recommended!!!

Horrible

There should be a 0 star rating. Stay away from this lawyer! Menders is loud, obnoxious, and pompous. He is completely unprofessional and disrespectful, not to mention his work ethic is horrendous. He prides himself on being deliberate and thorough, it is anything but. His work is so sloppy, that wh...en I confronted him on his many mistakes, he raised his voice to me, slammed his hands on his desk and threatened to increase his lawyer fees on my bill! He also threatened to withdraw my complaint and said I could find a new lawyer to start all over with. Internally I was furious, but bit my tongue. He needs to retire ASAP!
