So thankful...

Robin and her legal assistant, Bianca, made a very devastating time in my life move very smoothly. From start to finish, they stood beside me and helped me through every part. Robin believes in helping her clients and being honest. She tells you like it is and doesn't make promises she can't keep. I ...appreciated that she encouraged me to move forward with mediation. I would highly recommend going straight to mediation if you are ready to divorce. Robin works with a fantastic mediator, and we settled in one day. DO NOT drag out your divorce if you are ready to end things. Robin and Bianca will help set your mediation day and you will end up saving time, money and most importantly, a lot of heartache. I highly recommend working with Robin.

Excellent Attorney - Personal Service and Fair Rate

Robin assisted me with a contested divorce a couple of years ago. After a few consultations with other local attorneys. I decided to retain her services immediately after our initial consultation. I felt like the others were trying to "sell" me on what they wanted and they were too busy to listen t...o my goals and requirements. The statement that stood out from Robin was that her primary goal was to successfully represent my interests in a manner that would be fair, minimize my costs and bring the case to closure as quickly and painlessly as possible. She lived up to all of that and more. Her fees were very reasonable, she and her assistant were VERY responsive, I received detailed billing statements and my divorce case was resolved very quickly, especially considering the contested nature of the case. We were even able to reach a last minute agreement that avoided bringing the case to trial.

Amazing experience!

I walked into the offices of Robin Rubrecht terrified about what lay ahead for my future and that of my children. Within minutes, Robin put me at ease and I was certain that I had made the right choice to represent me during this difficult time. Not only is Robin amazing, her legal assistant, Bianc...a is equally professional, skilled and caring. Robin resolved my case quickly and was quick to follow up when there was a delayed response from the opposing counsel. I believe that she and her staff cared as much about myself and my children as they did their own families. Be prepared - if you are being unreasonable, or she feels that a decision you are making is not in your best interest, she will definitely advise you as such. She is not one of those attorneys who will do whatever you say to continue billing you; however, you have the freedom to make your own decisions and continue to receive her support. I could not have asked for a better attorney and staff. Thank you, Robin!
