Bright light at the end of the tunnel

Bobby Newman is not cheap, but then again - you get what you pay for! He ran circles around the opposing counsel in my case against my manipulative, narcissistic bully of a husband. When they refused to be reasonable in mediation, we rolled up our sleeves and prepared for a trial. All it took was Bo...bby’s opening statement to the jury and they were ready to settle. He won custody of my children and got more of the estate for me than we were even seeking in mediation. Definitely more than the 50/50 I was expecting! In the end, he showed me the light at the end of the tunnel and it was well worth the time and money it took to get there. HIGHLY recommend! If I could give him 10 stars, I would.

Grateful for Bobby Newman's Dedication

Thanks to Bobby Newman, I feel like my son now has a suit of armor around him, fully protected from the emotional turmoil and uncertainties that come with a contentious custody battle. The moment we knew we were going to trial, Bobby set aside everything else, even his personal life, to work side ...by side with me, putting in extremely long hours. Bobby and his elite team worked relentlessly, often burning the midnight oil, and truly earned every penny I paid them. Bobby’s unwavering dedication and tireless effort went far beyond what I ever expected from an attorney. He doesn't just demand excellence from himself, he expects nothing less from everyone on his team, creating a powerhouse of support. Even though I'll be repaying the costs from the case for a while, each payment feels like a privilege because what Bobby and his team provided is invaluable: time with my son and the assurance that he is protected.

Poor Representation

Sent $30,000 and he never did meet with my daughter in over 3 years. Rather he passed all the work down to Associates who, like him, were impossible to communicate with and expect a response. The end result was that my daughter only received her share of the profits from their home sale and nothin...g more . They refused to send her that money until their final bill was paid. Not sure that is even ethical! She did get out of state custody of their daughter only because her ex agreed to it. I've worked with law firms for over 30 years and I could not ever refer this firm to anyone. All big talk at thr outset and nothing but disappointment thereafter.

IF ZERO STARS WAS AN OPTION THAT'S WHAT THIS FIRM GETS

ALL OF THESE AWFUL REVIEWS OF BOBBY NEWMAN'S LAW FIRM ARE 100 % ACCURATE. THERE IS ZERO COMMUNICATION BETWEEN HIS OFFICE AND CLIENT. IF SOMEONE DOES FINALLY REACH OUT - OFTEN TIMES AT ODD HOURS OF THE NIGHT - IT'S A ROLL OF THE DICE WHETHER OR NOT THE PARALEGAL OR ATTORNEY IS FAMILIAR WITH THE CASE.... THE FIRM EVEN FORGOT ABOUT A COURT APPEARANCE THAT COULD HAVE BEEN DETRIMENTAL TO MY CASE. A LAW OFFICE SHOULD PUT ITS CLIENT AT EASE AND HANDLE ANY STRESS THE CASE MAY CAUSE. BOBBY NEWMAN'S TEAM ADDS TO THE STRESSS AND THE SADDEST PART - IT'S ALL AT THE EXPENSE OF AN INNOCENT CHILD CAUGHT IN A CUSTODY BATTLE. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS UNPROFESSIONAL, MISMANAGED FIRM TO ANYONE CAPABLE OF SPENDING 30,OOO TO RETAIN THEM. I HAVEN'T WRITTEN A REVIEW OF A COMPANY IN MY LIFE. DON'T HIRE BOBBY.

Horrific

Please read this review and take note. He is absolutely the worst human you will ever meet. He takes on way too many clients with 25k NON-refunalbe retainer. Then doesn't answer messages or texts or do ANY work. He draws out the process and chews up your money with NO regard to the children he is... damaging. He never filed temporary orders and after 4 months of nothing getting done I hired new lawyers who informed me that Bobby had never filed our team orders, yet he charged massive made-up fees for hours of fictitious work and never even did the bare minimum. All his employees quit because they can't work for him and he has NO time management skills, so things are rushed last minute and often done wrong. He will make a difficult process MUCH worse. He fails to do any work so that when you fire him he will keep all your retainer (which is illegal), but no one will prosecute him because the dollar amount is low. PLEASE be warned to stay far away from him.
