Gentino review

I met this attorney after watching him represent a client in court. I walked up to him at the end of the long day and handed him my card and said, "Robert, I never want to be on the other side". He has represented my company on many occasions since that day always with a favorable result. He is an... excellent attorney and I recommend you put him on retainer so no one beats you to it.

Absolute peace of mind

I had two case with Robert both times I won. First case I got a settlement for $150,000.00 (Collected too) so the second times I had peace of mind and I relaxed and not to worry about anything. I am glad after these two case Robert turned into a great friend for me. He will not rest until he gets wha...t his clients deserve. A GRAET LAWYER, A GREAT FRIEND.

Top Lawyer--My Go To Guy

I have been a lawyer for over 40 years. I previously practiced as a litigation attorney on Wall Street and have been a business/transactional attorney for the last 30 years in Southern California. Robert Gentino is a top litigator who posseses all of the requisite skills to be justifiably ranked amo...ng the very best in his profession. He combines the very highest intellectual and analytical candlepower with great judgment and practical skills so that he is invariably able to achieve the best results in the most efficient and cost effecive way for his clients. Every client I have referred to Robert has raved about his services and the results he has been able to achieve. He is, and will continue to be, my "go to" guy for clients who need litigation assistance.

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.

No BS Attorney

I was fortunate enough to be introduced to Robert when our company was being raided by a former employee. I had already sought advice from another attorney who told me we couldn't win a case alleging unfair competition but we could 'paper him to submission'. Not interested in that, we figured on end...uring this onslaught. Robert told me we could absolutely prevail but warned the process would be expensive. We prevailed at trial in a big way. It was my first and only trial experience. Robert's preparation for each day at trial was exemplary. His advise regarding what to accept and what not to accept was spot on. I have sought advise from time to time ever since. Robert Gentino has an innate ability to determine what a case is worth and whether settlement is appropriate. I would heartily recommend Robert to anyone seeking legal help. You will always get a clear assessment of what to expect.

I have and will continue to refer my clients to him. I have witnessed first hand that Robert is knowledgeable, skillful, aggressive when appropriate and thoughtful to his clients. In fact, in every instance I have made a referral to him, the client has called me back to thank me."
