Terrible excuse for a trial lawyer - incompetent

Robert is excellent if you just need papers filed. He can divorce you and get a reasonable settlement. When it comes to trial law or custody suits he is an amateur. He is dwarfed be professional attorneys in his field which he specializes in. He expects large payments, talks a good talk yet when it c...omes to trial he allows his clients to hang out and dry. He makes no objections to obvious situations and is completely inadequate in defense. I would not recommend anyone use Robert as a trial lawyer. If you want to get divorced, go for it. He might get you a good settlement but he is not aggressive enough for his chosen field.

Caring To The Core

I retained Mr. Tenorio for the first time in 2006. I was in a emergency situation with my husband, and new to DFW. I found Mr. Tenorio, spoke with him and I was in his office within a hour. Beaten down, a physical mess and very shook up. When I arrived , he was very knowledgeable about my situati...on. He stopped his morning and got me to the courthouse fast. Within a few hours, I was able to go back to my house and had my spouse removed . The depositions went wonderful , he was at my side through everything. I could not have retained a better lawyer or person, who truly cares about my outcome! To date, I have retained Mr. Tenorio again.... He has helped my daughter, worked on my parents estate & now me again. I am now disabled from a bad surgery and my husband just divorced me because of my health. He took all the household funds and left me in a horrible situation. This extremely difficult case was handled with such expertise and care. Robert Tenorio has saved me from my health getting worse, due to the fact that this man knows what he is doing!!!!!! Yes, this takes time, but I would rather have a lawyer that knows his business... I know get spousal support and can have my surgeries and have a longer life with my daughter! He fights hard and with grace !!! Number 1 in my book. I referred him to a friend for her divorce who had a dead beat husband. Her and her kids are doing great now, thanks to Mr. Tenorio! So, if you or your friends need a wonderful Attorney, retain this man and tell them to "BRING IT ON"

Fantastic Attorney

My husband and I both secured the services of Robert Tenorio for very contentious child custody issues. Robert is extremely knowledgeable in family law and represented us with great professionalism. He was always available to answer our questions and ease our concerns. Robert was always upfront if... there were issues and we always felt he had our family's best interest at heart. Robert last represented us in 2006 and we can still reach out to him if we have any questions or concerns. Our family law issues are now a thing of the past, but we both feel fortunate that Robert was in our corner.
