Posted by anonymous | June 18, 2019 | Hired Attorney | Foreclosure

Homeowners Association claim

We would like to thank Mr. Franks with Homeowners Association against my father. Robert was very detail on how and what we needed to do to handle the situation at hand. We had received a letter stating that they were about to foreclose on his property. Robert took time out of his busy schedule on ...a Saturday to meet with the family to assist my family on a resolutions with the homeowners association. We will be forever grateful for his legal assistant and support in resolving our claim. He is very compassionate attorney and has a great personality. We as a family appreciate everything he has done to help us from the phone calls, text messaging and emailing him daily. Robert not once didn't reply. I have dealt with other attorneys and I can truly say I did not receive that feeling that he was a part of our family and he wanted what was best for my father also. So, with that I can truly say I am very grateful to have chosen Robert Franks and will use him again if needed.

Excellent attorney

I went to Mr Franks because I was being sued for a debt that was my fathers from 18 years ago. He help me with this case and the suit was dropped. I would recommend him to anyone seeking Family or Probate Law. He is very friendly and his staff is as well.

Highly Recommend

Mr Franks handled my divorce case with kids. I am happy with the outcome and I know it would not have turned out this way without him.He is VERY knowledgeable in family law as there were times where he had to answer for opposing counsel. He is quick on his feet and never looked confused or lost (as d...id opposing counsel). I would highly recommend him. I came into this divorce lost and feeling upset but with him by my side I felt strong and confident. He knows his law and he knows what to expect before it happens. Always prepared. He even coached me on how to react and not react while in court. The most important thing for me was that I felt like everything was going to be ok. And that is how it turned out for my kids and I.

Excellent

I hired Robert to help me with my divorce case. It was quite different as although at the beginning I was fighting with my spouse, later on we agreed on all terms and Robert drafted our mutually agreed decree. My spouse did not have attorney representation. I was very impressed with Robert's abilit...y to stay fair and very professional with both of us. He treated my spouse with respect and showed me all options for each matter we were addressing. I really liked working with Robert and would totally hire him again if needed.

Beyond Impressed – Forever Grateful

When I realized divorce was going to be unavoidable, I worried that I would get a back-seat roll as a parent. I wanted to be as involved as a dad as I could have been married. I sat down with Robert and he helped me chart a path to achieve this goal. We succeeded. I have not met a dad with an arr...angement I would prefer over my own. Achieving this was not easy and as you can imagine it was, and still is, highly contested. I have relied on Robert for guidance since the entering of the divorce some time ago. It is so valuable to me that I know he is always in my corner ready to guide me when I need. Most recently Robert defended my role as a father against a petition to modify suite brought by my ex. The process was intimidating and stressful for me. Throughout the process leading up to and during trial, Robert remained calm, diligent, and professional. At trial it was clear to me he was more prepared, smarter, and simply a better attorney. Opposing counsel was a seasoned attorney with an intimidating record. This is a situation where more than one person told me, “oh that’s her attorney, you are going to lose, they’re the best” or “you should hire Y, they beat them before”. I trusted Robert and I am glad I did. My agreement is still intact. These results were not without a significant financial cost. However, Robert was successful at managing the case in a cost-effective way. He was always clear with me about the financial component. After the trial I was particularly impressed because not only did we win, my bill was almost half that of my ex. Please do not read this wrong, Robert is not cheap. My bill was less because he is an amazing attorney who can do more with less. Every dime you spend is a dime well spent. Overall, Robert is an honest and trustworthy professional. He takes time to get to know you and fully invests himself into your case. He works smart and hard and it shows in the results. I will always be among Robert’s biggest fans. I could not have asked for more.
