Robbie is a trial rock star!
Robbie is a trial rock star. He is poised, polished and perfectly aggressive. I have worked with 6 firms over the years. State 48 and Robbie Hendricks are a very special bread. In my experience, they completely committed and utilized every ounce knowledge and effort of into my case. They truly go above and beyond.

Amazing Family Law Attorney
There simply aren’t enough words to express how grateful and thankful my husband and I are to have Mr. Hendricks and Mr. Vincent as our Family Court Attorney team. From planning to implementing, their experience in cases like ours is unmatched. They are professional, honest, kind, communicative, understanding and informative. We always feel like a priority, and they always made us feel like they were with us on this journey and not just passengers; we never felt like just another case used for reoccurring billing. We have always felt like we are a team. They shared their knowledge and experiences in family law. We came up with strategies and planned together. They guided us for the best possible outcome with no false promises or false expectations. Just straight facts and truths. They understand complex cases. Mr. Hendricks and Mr. Vincent are truly the dynamic duo! Thanks to Mr. Hendricks and Mr. Vincent my husband was given full physical and legal custody of his son with biological Mother only being allowed supervised visits. We will continue to keep Mr. Hendricks and his team on retainer until our son graduates high school. We feel safe knowing Mr. Hendricks is our attorney and our safety net; and if for some unforeseen circumstance we must go back to family court, we know we are in good hands. I have learned Family Court is a complicated and complex mess and custody battles are very emotional. It helps to have very knowledgeable, caring and honest attorneys like Mr. Hendricks and Mr. Vincent. We cannot brag about them enough. Because of them we finally have peace! Our journey: * September of 2015, we were told about Mr. Hendricks while at a BBQ from someone who overheard my husband and I expressing the difficulties and frustrations we were having with my husband’s ex-girlfriend (baby mama) and our then attorney to a friend of ours. This woman explained she had just won custody of her child after a contentious divorce and child custody battle. She raved about her attorney and provided us with his name and contact information. We were worried and confused about switching attorneys after 6 years. At the same time, we had serious concerns about staying with the same attorney with little to no real results to help protect my husband’s child; and to end the relentless harassment from his ex-girlfriend with false police calls/reports , harassment calls and emails to employers, friends and family members, restraining orders obtained through blatant lies with not a single proof of evidence. The reality is, most judges hand out protection orders like free lollipops at a doctor’s office. The worst part of all of this was the torture and harassment the trauma my innocent stepson had to endure. No child should ever have to go through that. To this woman I only met once back in 2015, a BIG THANK YOU wherever you are. * February of 2016, four months after that BBQ, my Husband and I met with Robbie Hendricks and Stephen Vincent. As we walked out of their office lobby, we both knew we had finally found our attorney team. It should be noted that, my husband was with his original attorney from February 2009 to February 2016. Finding a new attorney was a very frustrating task, until our meeting with Mr. Hendricks and Mr. Vincent. * February 2017 My Husband was awarded Final Legal decision with no change in the 50/50 physical custody. * September 2018 My husband was awarded temporary full Physical custody with biological Mother having supervised visits. * May 2019 My husband was awarded full physical custody and orders that clarified he had been awarded full legal custody and biological Mother was given supervised visits.

Incredibly gifted legal mind
I am a fellow attorney, and over the years I have had opportunity to interact with multiple attorneys at State 48 Law Firm on a variety of matters. I can honestly say that if I needed help with a legal matter pertaining to divorce or family law, I would never consider hiring anyone else. Robbie Hendricks and Stephen Vincent are absolute masters of their field. Their legal knowledge, skill, responsiveness, problem solving, and empathy are absolutely second to none. If you are going through a tough time and you need things to go the right way, this is your firm.

Above & Beyond!
Robbie Hendricks has been nothing short of amazing. He went above & beyond to make sure my divorce was settled with the best outcome possible. He kept me informed every step of the way and was always available to respond quickly as things evolved. Robbie is very passionate about his job and fighting for his clients. He was empathetic to my situation and I really felt like he was fighting for me in court & in mediation. I felt confident in letting him take control and work on my behalf so I didn’t have to stress over all the details. I couldn’t have asked for a better team and highly recommend Robbie Hendricks and Best Law Firm.

Superman Attorney
My case has been far from simple, I have been fighting for the safety of my child and to help stop the harassment from the other parent since 2008.  From the very beginning it has been an uphill battle.  Dads seem to be treated like reoccurring billings just to keep the lights on for your typical attorney and lets not forget to mention the twelve or more Court Professionals appointed to my case, some who made recommendations while admitting that they never read the full documents that pertained to my case "because it was too much". Some of the professionals appointed were; Conciliation  Services, Parenting Coordinators (two),  Parenting Conference Provider, Co-Parenting Counselor (two), Court Appointed Adviser, Parenting Conference Provider, Mental Health Expert, Best Interest Attorney, Parenting Supervisor, Therapeutic Interventionist and Child Counseling (two).  Our system seems to favor mothers, even after numerous false police reports, fabricated accusations to child protective services, orders of protections obtained through fabricated statements,  slander and harassment to my employers, friends and family. Even after the other parent was charged for false reporting to CPS and law enforcement, the court system moved and acted slower than Eeyore the donkey from Winnie the Pooh. The other parent was never punished, paid sanctions or lost parenting time, I honestly felt like I was never going to be able to protect my child and stop the harassment. After many years of spinning my wheels in the mud we decided to test the waters of other attorneys in town. The typical call when requesting a consultation to "sell" your case ends with a deposit for the upcoming meeting and their request for your family court case number (This is where the attorney or firm "grades" you. They are basically deciding if your case is worth their time, headache, or they just want to use you for money to keep the lights on and office staff employed).  After, many meetings with potential attorneys and their paralegal staff and hundreds of dollars later, we learned that our case was a true hazardous waste train wreck.  A friend introduced us to a person who had gone through a bad custody battle and that person referred us to Best Law. We met with Robbie Hendricks and Stephen Vincent and explained our case. They had very recent experience with a similar case. They didn't over promise anything. They were realistic with what our expectations should be and laid out possible scenarios and strategies that have worked for them and against them that they would explore.  We began by gathering documentation (thousands of pages) everything we could find to help summarize any an all topics. This way when presenting a petition to the court we had concise facts, dates and exhibits to argue our case. Robbie and Stephen have done an amazing job for us. My emails, phone calls were always returned timely and they were always professional. We know they have put in the arduous labor, research and preparation to finally achieve the goal that we originally interviewed them to do.  We know they care about our case and were not just a paycheck.  This was a team effort where we felt every bit of  the results was fought and won together.  From the petitions and exhibits to the trial preparations, and all the way through the final court order, these guys are the real deal!  They were always patient and able to explain the steps I needed to take to best achieve the results I wanted in the long run and never once gave me false hopes or discounted my concerns. They have worked hard and have been honest and straight forward from the very first day.

Exceptional Attorney, Highly Recommend
I have had exposure to multiple legal disciplines over the years and as such, consider myself experienced as it relates to attorney-client relationships. From day one, I was impressed with Robbie and his staff. I found Robbie’s fund of knowledge, oral and written communication skills and judgement to be on point throughout my entire case. He consistently demonstrated an ability to critically analyze facts in a rational, skeptical manner creating unbiased analysis based on his evaluation of the factual evidence. What makes Robbie unique is the compassion, empathy and respectful demeanor he extends to all parties both in and outside the courthouse. His aptitude for navigating emotionally complex social exchanges and interactions, commonly referred to as emotional intelligence, alleviated excessive and undue stress during the course of my litigation. His ability to orally articulate, written communication skills, analysis and judgment when combined with his empathetic and compassionate approach are uncommon to his chosen profession. Without any hesitation, I highly recommend Robbie Hendricks to anyone faced with pending litigation requiring legal representation.

Highly Recommend
I had a very positive experience working with Robbie Hendricks. He worked tirelessly on my case. He has a calm, well-balanced, yet confident and a force-to-be-reckoned with approach in the courtroom maintaining high integrity always. At every encounter, he was well-prepared, organized, knowledgeable, and his experience showed. On a human level, he was also very reassuring and had a listening ear. I was never left in the dark at anytime. Every question I had was answered in a beyond timely manner. I am honestly not sure how he does it. Each and every document that he wrote and prepared for my case was very detailed and our preparedness showed in court in comparison with opposing counsel. I was and am extremely grateful Robbie Hendricks represented me and was on my side, and without a doubt believe he is the best choice of any attorney.

Robert is a great attorney on many levels.
I have used Robert several times and also made recommendations to friends and family. He has always been great to work with. He has been very thorough and Professional yet has been reasonable with his fees. From my perspective Robert handles himself perfectly in court not agitating the opposing counsel and works well with the judges. I will continue to recommend Robbie to anyone who asks me for a good family law and or divorce attorney.

INTEGRITY
The motto of Best Law Firm is INTEGRITY and because they live their motto - I think it says it all!! Best Law Firm represented me as well as my daughter. In my experience with the team at Best Law (Robbie Hendricks, Stephen Vincent and David Uffens) I could count on them to use integrity every step of the way. At this time in history it feels like the priority of the family court system is to honor parental rights rather than focusing on children's rights and here is where BEST LAW shines. They put the welfare of the children first! While the team cannot guarantee the outcome you desire they will do everything in their power to protect your children - to keep them safe and fight for what is in their best interest. I know this first hand and have the utmost respect for these attorneys who battled often times late into the night to write a compelling case to protect my grandchildren. Their legal defense also included making sure my daughter was safe and supported during this process. They will work tirelessly and creatively to keep costs down while not sacrificing quality. I am not easily impressed, but this firm deserves to be ranked number 1 for their outstanding service in family law. Every phone call, every motion they filed, every conversation, every interview, every court appearance, every e-mail was done with the highest professionalism and INTEGRITY. If you are involved in a custody battle, you definitely want to hire this firm and have this team on your side!

The A+ Team
Choosing the right attorney for my family law matter was one of the most important decisions I have ever had to make. I researched numerous lawyers, spoke and met with several, read countless reviews, and even changed attorneys before I ended up at Best Law Firm. I could not have been happier with my decision or the outcome of my case. From my very first consultation, everyone I came in contact with at Best Law went above and beyond to be kind, courteous and helpful - from the owner of the firm (Cynthia Best), to their office coordinator and receptionist, to their billing department. But I am specifically writing this review in regards to the two attorneys I worked with the most, Robbie Hendricks and Stephen Vincent. I also worked with David Uffens and would describe him in the same way. Part of what makes Best Law Firm unique is that they all work together as a team. One of the many qualities that set Robbie and his team apart, was the extra time they took to really get to know my case, and the people that it directly affected - my kids. They genuinely cared and fought endlessly for what mattered most to me - the safety of my children. I had a difficult domestic violence case. Robbie and Stephen took the time to walk me to my car after court, and made sure I felt physically safe at all times during the trial process. They didn’t have to do that. It wasn’t part of their job description. But they did it all because that’s who they are and they always go the extra mile. Simply put, they are good people and the BEST lawyers. Robbie, Stephen and David always made sure I knew what was going on in my case at all times. They made sure I was never left worried or wondering - even if it meant working late to answer my questions (no matter how trivial) with a phone call or an email. I worked with Best Law for over 2 years - during that entire time they made sure I never felt alone in the process. Robbie truly stands out for his professionalism, and his desire to advocate for children and their best interest. His knowledge of the law and judicial process help him shine where it counts - in the courtroom. The way he cross examined witnesses was nothing short of brilliant. He was so articulate, thorough, prepared, direct, confident, calm, always composed and able to think on his feet, all while being reassuring to me. Robbie was able to get in important evidence, records and expert witness testimony that was imperative for my case. Trust me, when you walk into an intimidating courtroom, you want Robbie and his team by your side, as your advocates. Now that my cases are over I would like to say that I couldn’t be happier with the outcomes. Two lawyers previously told me I didn’t stand a chance in achieving my desired results. But Robbie, Stephen and David fought endlessly for us and they put every possible safeguard in place to protect my children. Robbie and David helped me achieve highly successful results through meditation in one case as well. There are not enough positive adjectives in the dictionary to sing my praises of Robbie, Stephen and David. Best Law Firm’s motto is “Integrity is everything” and I couldn’t think of a better way to sum them up. I would like to end with stating that Robbie Hendricks and his team were invaluable in helping me get through what was by far the most difficult and stressful time in my life. Now that my cases are behind me I can confidently move forward knowing that my children will have a better future and be protected thanks to the BEST attorneys at Best Law Firm. I truly cannot recommend Robbie and his team highly enough and I do every chance I get. Robbie, Stephen and David are the only attorneys I would completely trust when my children’s safety and future were at stake! I will always be profoundly grateful that I chose them. It was 100% the right decision for me and my family.

Great Lawyer, I Would Recommend Him To Anyone
Robbie has been such a pleasure to work with. I couldn't be happier with my decision to work with him. Every time we meet with him, he is professional and personable. He really understands all of our needs and handles them in a timely fashion. I was terrified about hiring a lawyer and could not be happier. It has been great working with Robbie and can't wait for the opportunity to refer friends and family his way.

A Pleasure to Work With
I am beyond grateful for the quality representation Mr. Hendricks provides. From our first contact, I knew he would have our back and do everything he could to see our case through to a successful resolution. Mr. Hendricks was always responsive, informative, effective, and remained calm and focused on the tasks at hand. His attention to detail and ability to retain all information pertinent to the case was a comfort and huge asset to our case. During trial he and Cindy Best worked as a dynamic duo! Mr. Hendricks made sure each item of evidence was admitted and on the record. His knowledge of the case supported Ms. Best's awesome cross examinations of all defense witnesses. His knowledge of family law and no nonsense approach when dealing with an unethical opposing attorney was a just what we needed to stay the course. Mr. Hendricks and the entire Best Law Firm are an absolute pleasure to work with. I would recommend Mr. Hendricks and the Best Law Firm to anyone looking for a quality and effective attorney and firm. They truly care and are among the top in their profession! Thank you so much, all of you!

Wonderful, Thoughtful, Intelligent and Caring
I truly cannot fit in here all of the amazing qualities for Robert (Robbie) Hendricks. Hands down, having Robbie represent me has been one of the best decisions of my life! Divorce, especially with children, is such a difficult process. I had a highly unique and difficult case involving issues that most courtrooms around the US have no knowledge about. Robbie rose to every challenge in my case with so much integrity, dedication and intelligence. He is SMART and CARING. He will listen to your life story, give you the resources and encouragement to lead a better life the way your own loved ones would! I have interviewed and heard of those sleazy money hungry lawyers and the last person you need on your side during a difficult time is a bad attorney who makes you sink further. Robbie is the polar opposite of that type of attorney and it is because he pay’s attention to every single detail while CARING for you. He is respectful, professional, calming and reassuring. Any questions or concerns I had were answered in detail and promptly. He will find a way to help you, period! And I would like to add that I am forever grateful to Robbie for helping and saving my baby and I from the nightmare we were in. My child and I now live free, happier and healthier lives. Choose Robbie to be by your side and he will help your children and you to lead the happy lives you deserve!
