Divorce case HORRIBLE RESULTS!

Cancels constantly, took over 2 years to complete my case, and I still got shafted, I had to give up EVERYTHING! He NEVER followed up on anything! Never did as he promised....all in all, I would have been better representing myself!

Hire a Different Attorney

Robert Starkman charged me over $11,000 dollars for two months service and did not produce one result. He claims he wouldn't nickel and dime me for service, but did exactly that. I was so disappointed in his service I went to another firm. The transition was a nightmare. Instead of taking it as a... professional he took it personally. I am no where close to my hearing being over and he averaged more than $5,000 a month...not going even going to trial. Choose wisely and choose another lawyer.

Excellent and Knowledgeable Attorney

Robert Starkman went above and beyond what was required both personally and professionally while handling an Insurance/Estate case for me that spanned close to two and a half years. He was always easy to meet with and get in touch with, even meeting me at Starbucks on evenings and weekends. Mr Starkm...an was always supportive and encouraging during this difficult case, but what I appreciated most was his always realistic take on everything. He would always lay out both the strengths and the weaknesses of our case which gave a realistic perspective and understanding of what lay ahead for us during this process, he never sugar coated anything or gave us false hope. There were also several times when this seemed liked an endless and uphill battle, and Mr Starkman would never let me throw in the towel, only because he truly had my best interests in mind. When it came time for my case to go to trial I felt beyond confident that I truly had one of the best attorneys out there representing me, and he was able to facilitate a settlement that spared me from what could have potentially become a very ugly and unpleasant trial. There are not enough good things to say about working with Mr Starkman, and I could not be more pleased with the outcome he worked so hard to achieve for me.
