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.

Worse than you can imagine

Bobby will sweet talk you to get your 25k and then he turfs you off to the least slammed associate. They never communicate. I was never told I was divorced, Never had my questions answered after several emails, voicemails, and texts. I am an intelligent person but not a lawyer..I have never been thr...ough a divorce. Not once did they explain the process and what to expect. I felt very ignorant and alone compared to my ex-husband. I would never recommend this company, they are unorganized and inconsiderate of the client.

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.

Very expensive and mostly unavailable to me

At first he seemed very interested in my case and wanted to help me. But he made me pay a huge consulting fee of around $700, and also a huge deposit of almost $30,000. I had heard some good things about him as a litigator if your case goes to court, and he was referred to me by another lawyer of min...e. But when the case started, he was mostly unavailable to answer my calls, and it seemed like he was also short staffed and they didn't call me back either. It was almost as if my case was a bother to him, and I ended up having to do most of my own legwork investigating and finding out things. I feel that there were several more much higher dollar divorce cases on his docket, and mine got kind of left behind in the dust, and I was a bother to him and his staff. Pros: great office Good litigator if your case goes to court, but 95% of them do not. Cons: overpriced and understaffed Seemed mostly interested in the $

Walk Quietly and Carry a BIG stick

There is no unnecessary emotion, legal motions or bragging. Straight forward, honest, brilliant, prepared and zealously fights with passion and heart. The BEST in Houston, in Texas, In New York, in California and Colorado. He refuses to loss but is always straight forward without any excuses. He nev...er compromises on being honest. The truth always wins!
