Stay away!! Run for the hills!!!

Do not trust Robert Payne! He never completed the work we paid him to do! He did not show up to scheduled court dates, which caused us to have default judgements entered against us! We had to hire another another attorney to clean up his mess!! He never refunded our money like he promised either!

Robert Payne...Refreshingly brillant, Responsive and timely, dependable, Cares about you, Has your back! Reads people well.

I came to know Robert Payne through a respected professional whom I trusted. My experience with legal issues was limited yet Robert made it easy to understand and kept me informed of my options in a timely manner. During the most difficult times, Robert managed to have a calming affect on me. It w...as nearly comical how when under such pressure he managed to gracefully pull it all together...he's just a natural at reading people and "feeling" his way through the dynamics...making adjustments to the plan based on "gut" reaction yet based on his perception and observations at the given moment. The results were better than expected. I can honestly say that I am just glad he was on "my team" and wasn't in opposition to me...he is respectfully and professionally "intimidating" for the good reasons. He is the first one I think of when I need legal help and recommend him highly.
