This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Amazing Lawyer, I couldn't be happier.

I unfortunately had a accident flying and Robert was very helpful through the process. I've never had to sue anyone before but Robert made the whole experience very easy for me. He was patient and explained the whole process to me, also gave me advice on what he thought was the best route to take but... he ultimately left the decision in my hand. I really respected that and it made me trust him even more. He's very honest, and made me feel very comfortable, like we have been friends for a long time. With his advice that I'm glad I followed. The case never went to court and they decided to settle. I hope that I never have to ever sue anyone ever again but if I do I would not look anywhere else but here. Thank you Robert.
