Best legal experience ever.

I was on the winning side of my legal dispute because Mr. Franks was MY lawyer on this case. Mr. Franks gathered and evaluated the necessary information for my case and offered a CLEAR framework for EACH of the various options available to me in the legal system. He helped me select the best timing... to file the dispute; evaluate the best framework; and select the appropriate court system to use. He had the right level of foresight for a successful outcome. In my case, the opposing party filed a counter-suit citing enormous damages. Mr. Franks remained committed to achieving the original resolution available for the legal process and continued with the original framework. He offered solutions where needed and was able to effectively defeat EVERY counter point urged by the opposing party with the appropriate response and level of documentation. His office staff was also amazing and CONSISTENTLY helpful. They got me through the proceedings in an efficient manner. They were able to steer me through the process with excellent customer care and attention to details throughout the process. Mr. Frank’s and his office left nothing to chance. They were each proactive every step of the way.

Robert Franks- Why you need him on your side in court:

Robert was highly recommended by a friend so I contacted him after talking to few other attorneys. Although the others wanted me to make and appointment come in to see them, Robert took my call immediately and was personable and professional from the start. Throughout the several months it took t...o have my case resolved, Robert and his assistant Mendy continued to be extremely responsive to all my questions and were tirelessly patient in explaining and re-explaining the concepts of the legal matters before us. They always addressed my issues positively even though in most instances, the issues were so intertwined with emotion for me that it was difficult for me to focus on the positive or even just plain focus on the process at all. Robert is adept at pre-empting anything the opposing counsels had up their sleeve so he was always prepared for any number of possible scenarios and he was able to explain the potential outcomes to me so I did not feel alarmed by the turn of events at any given time. Having an excellent grasp of the legal subject matter as well as the politics within the court system, my issues were handled as they came up with no unnecessary delays. Robert was able to stay focused on my goals and was even able to re-direct my frustrations in positive ways that ended up benefitting the outcome of my case. He was always well prepared - through multiple rescheduling of the case (at the mercy of big city court dockets) while opposing counsel at times seemed disorganized and merely catching up. Robert was spontaneous and candid in his handling of the matters and his confidence projected favorably on the outcome of the proceedings. He utilized the strengths of this case in my favor and these strengths helped to establish and build additional pressure on the opposition which ultimately culminated in an out of court settlement in my favor. I would definitely recommend Robert Franks to anyone who needs a lawyer to whom you can talk to and who will call you back each time you have concerns or questions.

Client - Commercial Litigation - Greatly Satisfied

Robert was phenomenal in all aspects of my contract litigation endeavor. In our initial meeting Robert was able to present a clear course of action with goals and objectives he was going to try to meet. Robert and his office were very diligent and professional and always responded quickly to questio...ns or issues that arose. Furthermore, Robert consistently kept me apprised with his plan of attack and reasons for implementing his strategies prior to filing any motions or correspondence with the court or opposing counsel. I felt Robert crushed and out maneuvered the opposing counsel in all arguments and positions taken by the other side. I was very pleased with the time, effort, and zeal Robert put forth in my litigation. Also, he was able to bring a very satisfactory outcome in a reasonable time frame. I would definitely recommend, and have recommended, Robert to any person I come in contact with that could benefit from his skill set. Thank you again Robert for easing and resolving my burdensome legal issues during a very trying time.

Excellent lawyer

We recently had issues with a contractor who had done some remodeling. We hired Robert Franks to consult us on the best approach to resolve the case. Robert helped step-by-step through the whole process from the options we had, to filing the suit, taking us to meditation, and finally a trial. We trie...d to resolve the civil case at mediation and Robert was calm and professional through the whole process. When we ultimately proceeded to trial, Robert was prepared and prepared us for the trial. He calmed any concerns by prepping us for all the possibilities and his professional recommendation about how the case would resolve. Robert was capable of handling each issue which arose in our case and ultimately we won a judgement against the contractor. Robert was an excellent choice for our case. We are very pleased with our experience and would choose to use Robert for any legal matter in the future.
