Robert Samuel Widner

Okay so I know this attorney does offer some great prices, but it's just not worth it if you have a divorce to go through with children or any other assets. You need an attorney that is going to help you understand what the paperwork says and what it means. You need to understand about your mortgage ...and what happens when one of you keeps it or one of you doesn't. You need to understand that even if you have your ex spouse take responsibility for the loan then still means your name is on the loan unless they do an assumed loan (which lenders rarely do) or make them add wording in so the other person must refinance! Otherwise it's pretty hard to buy a house because you will still have another mortgage on your credit report. Obviously if your main goal for choosing this attorney is for the cost, the money you save up front will cost you in the end if you don't get your paperwork straight the first time. And who really wants to go back to court for a situation that could have been avoided had you picked better representation the beginning.

Robert Widner told me exactly what I wanted to hear and gave me great hopes about my custody and divorce modification case. I appeared at court the first time and another attorney showed up to represent me whom had zero knowledge about my case and had only graduated law school 2 months prior. Didn'...t even know their way around the courthouse and asking the client the family code #s and what they say. I have had many questions and time sensitive issues that I needed immediate answers and after weeks, still get no response after many phone calls, texts and emails. I have done majority of the documentation for this case, but still having to pay them. He is very unorganized, can't stay focused when talking to you about the case, can't follow up with you at all. He can't file necessary paperwork in a timely manner or provide you with any documents for your records. This is actually the worse attorney I have dealt with.

My family was going through a rough time during our case. Having to share my family with my drug addict husband and the costs were too much to deal with alone. Then I was referred to the Widner Family Law Group. Bob was very knowledgeable and passionate about my case. After I was threatened with the ...separation of my kids we came out strong. With Bob's help my children and I are able to look towards a happier future.

Having previously been involved in a very high-conflict divorce and complicated / difficult child custody, I was looking for a competent, detail-oriented attorney who would be able to finally resolve a number of ongoing issues. Bob Widner and the Widner Family Law Firm was recommended to me by a form...er family court judge. Bob was exactly the lawyer I needed - aggressive, helpful, straightforward, communicative, sincere, knowledgeable and is just a good person. Bob quickly observed that my not standing up for myself with my ex was not helping me. Bob immediately worked to understand the fundamentals of my case, was quickly able to gauge when a response or action was necessary during the negotiation and when it would have been a waste of both his time and my money. His flat monthly fee helped win my case, because my ex employed an hourly attorney and she ran out of money. Bob achieved a better outcome than I could have hoped for. Mary

Robert S. Widner and his team of family law attorneys at the Widner Family Law Group have helped me to achieve a remarkable victory in the Dallas Family Court. As a father facing divorce, I am extremely grateful to Robert Widner, who works hard to do the important things first and to keep legal cost...s down to an affordable level. He believes in father's rights and has been incredibly successful in helping me to achieve my goals. Robert provides experienced leadership for a team of younger attorneys. Robert listened to my story and clearly understood my objectives. I worked mostly with Courtney Lynn Coffin on his staff, but Robert joined many of the preparation meetings and provided overall direction. I have witnessed his staff pulling together as a team and communicating well with clients. Robert and his team are fierce warriors in the courtroom and skilled diplomats in the hallway. I highly recommend Robert S. Widner as a family law attorney.
