Honest and dedicated

My family has known Robert since the late nineties. We had a family business In Los Angeles where we did asbestos abatement and roof removal. As the president of the corporation, my knowledge was primarily production . Over the course of 16 years in the commercial roofing industry we had several inci...dents that left us worried and afraid. Robert G. protected us from the sharks and saved our business several times. I could go on and on, but bottom line Robert is a very hard working honest man with morals and really cares about helping. When times were tough Robert wouldn't send a bill. I love the guy, he's a good person and a fantastic attorney . Thank You Robert!

True Fighter!!!!!!

Robert Gentino is one of the strongest and best attorneys out there. You can absolutely be sure that he will fight your case all the way until you are satisfied. In my first case 12 years ago where I was sued by my ex-business partner, Robert had the case dismissed and recovered $50,000. My ex-part...ner immediately hired him for his extensive business holdings and recommended him to others. Robert has given me honest and straightforward advice on several business deals including restaurants, schools, and real estate acquisitions. I definitely recommend Robert Gentino to anyone who needs a real lawyer you can trust and will fight for you!

Don't even try to screw or play unlawful Games with Robert Gentino.

Now mr.Gentino over 15 years. He never refused any consulting over phone for me or on the issues happened to my friends. Never billed me for hours of those talk and would offers his services only on the problems he specialized. And that Real Estate, Buisness and even Criminal law. But he knows much M...oore. He wants clients participate and understand their problem even before giving Legal Advise. He's ownest, professional and just a very good person. Don't even try to outsmart this hard and very reasonable ($$$) real attorney !!!

No nonsense , honest attorney

I made a mistake of signing a large agreement with a friend without legal representation . I consulted 3 attorneys who gave me small chance of winning at very high legal expense A friend referred me to Robert and he gave me good chance of winning , even though my agreement was very weak. Robert se...riously overpowered the opposing attorney and turned my contract into cash. Our judge was also very impressed by Robert and made a comment that the opposing attorney was no match for Robert.

Sharp Man, Knows His Law, Fights for the Under-Dog and Will See Through Subterfuge

We are with the non-profit group "client" refers to when Robert represented us 13 years ago. He took over for an attorney who was totaling dropping the ball. He ended up not only winning for us but also uncovering some unlawful actions by the opponent and winning an additional judgment in our favo...r. In 2012 he also represented us against an individual who was defaming us without merit, and threatening our board members. Again, his knowledge and insight triumphed and we won our case. As "client" previously mentioned, he has the biggest heart for the under-dog and especially homeless animals. On a personal note, we consider Robert Gentino our friend and highly respect him as a person and an attorney. We always turn to him for advice and help and will consider no one else. Bottom line, if you are planning on any sneaky-pete or slippery dealings, this is the wrong man to mess with. On the other hand, if you want an attorney who will fight for you and get the best results, you will hire Robert Gentino.
