Robert Thomas- Thank you! :)

Robert has taken care of all of my needs over the past 15 years including a messy divorce, and several financial situations related to that divorce. He has always advised and represented me in a professional and timely manner, I highly recommend him!

Excellent job

All in all I was very pleased with Mr. Robert's performance in representing me to the IRS. I felt my case involved some special considerations, and at no time did i feel he took a "cookie-cutter" approach to formulating and implementing his strategy. He was also flexible when I needed him to be in ha...ndling my schedule, as on occasion unexpected demands of my workplace interfered with my preparations for the case. I found his staff professional and accommodating in working with me. In summary, the results his office achieved exceeded my expectations.

He saved my home!

I had a great experience with Mr. Thomas as I was laid off and he helped me save my house! He was always accommodating of my schedule and very professional.

very professional

Mr Thomas is very professional. He helped me in my divorce settlement as well as IRS audit. He does not over charge for his services and very knowledgeable in family law as well as tax laws. I was hoping for a little better deal on my divorce settlement but hay I'm glad to have it over at the time.

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.
