Genuine & trustworthy!

I highly recommend Robert Tsai! He is very genuine and trustworthy! He really helped me through the ups and downs of the divorce journey. I also appreciate that he keeps up with technology and that makes it a simpler process!

Honest, upfront, professional, thorough, helpful, patient, bright, efficient, hardworking, passionate

Robet was incredibly professional and efficient in handling my divorce on very short notice. Most lawyers try to nickel and dime different fees but Robert was always to the point, he does not waste client's time in order to keep billing them and he is very thorough with his work. Divorce is obvio...usly a difficult situation, but if you are in Texas and need it handled quickly and simply, then I'd wholeheartedly recommend Robert. Robert did exceptionally wonderful job with my divorce. I can say that “I am blessed and thankful to have an Attorney like him." He is very smart and knowledgeable. He is very upfront and honest. He gave me sound advice on things I could compromise on, what points were worth standing my ground for and it helped me find a good balance that would work best for my kids and me. He was able to guide me towards right direction so that I can heal. He usually responded to my emails and calls within 5 minutes that is exceptional service. He will do the best for you. I really appreciate everything Robert has done for me. We were set to go for trial a day after his first child was born and despite being on vacation he prepared for my case and stood by me in trial. I am so thankful and I really appreciate everything Robert and Brooke did for me during those tough times. Robert is so passionate about his work and I would have not made it without the support they provided.

Not the hero Gotham deserves, but the one it needs!

I can’t say enough about what a phenomenal advocate Mr Robert Tsai is. He was not only efficient and effective in communication and execution, but also vastly experienced and knowledgeable in the law – allowing him to employ strategies as well as defend against tactics that make Family Law frustratin...g and arduous. I came to him with an extremely messy and complex situation, one that had been completely botched and intentionally delayed by previous counsel on both sides. Mr Tsai was an answered prayer after a year-long nightmare, as he finished the case with ease just two weeks after firing my previous lawyer! He was understanding and compassionate in my unique and dire circumstance, patient and honest in explaining the law, clever in finding creative ways to protect my best interest, professional in communicating with the court and opposing counsel, quick to reply to all of my messages, efficient in drawing up important documents and filing them with the court, worked tirelessly on weekends and off-days when the case heated up, and even consulted with a colleague of his in Austin who practices a different area of law on my behalf when he was there on personal holiday! If you want a true advocate who embodies the definition of a civil servant, who goes in overprepared to defend your interests, runs circles around opposing counsel, while saving you money in the process thanks to his efficiency and honesty, then learn from my mistakes and hire him from the start to represent you. There is way too much on the line – monetarily, but more importantly your own health/sanity.
