Posted by Bruce | June 7, 2016 | Hired Attorney

This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Extremely knowledgeable, always accessible.

After researching bankruptcy lawyers in our area, we chose Robert because of the insightful postings on his website and a conversation with him at his office. Robert does not waste your time with a sales pitch. After carefully listening to our situation, he gave us a bluntly honest assessment and de...scribed the options and obstacles we faced. It was not going to be easy, but Robert’s demeanor, honesty, and clarity gave us confidence. Once we agreed to work together, Robert gave us a very fair price and was clear on what we needed to do, what he needed from us, accompanied by a very accurate timeframe. Throughout the entire process Robert kept us informed about every step. His updates, including what to expect and how to handle it, were delivered with plenty of time to respond and his assessments were spot on. He never failed to take our calls, answer our silly questions, and reassure us over the many huddles. Although there were many issues, including a very unresponsive trustee, with many, many extra hours of work on his part, Robert hung in there and brought our case to a successful conclusion (all without any additional fees). I have gone back to Robert on several occasions for help on other issues. If the probelm is not in his expertise, he always has an excellent referral to help me out.

Extremely Knowledgeable!

We had a complicated bankruptcy that required additional research on Rob's part. He did not charge any more than he quoted and did a great job getting the work done for us. He was always available to answer questions for us since this was very stressful and we have never done this before. Thanks, R...ob.

Very professional

Robert made what was a very stressful procedure very easy! He was the second attorney I hired after the first one ended up being dishonest & unethical.He was always available to answer any questions. He is very knowledgable & pleasant to work with. Most importantly trustworthy! Thanks for everything...!

"I have know Robert for several years now. We met on social media in various lawyer networking and study groups. Robert is passionate about bankruptcy law, and committed to helping his clients get the fresh start they deserve. This has become even more important in the last four years when the economy took a nose dive due to the mortgage meltdown. Robert has a good bedside manner and keeps current on developments in bankruptcy law. I recommend him without reservation."
