And that is why I endorse him !"

I can highly recommend Robert to any client who is looking for representation in the area of consumer protection."
"I have co-counseled and strategized with Robert on a number of matters and I never cease to be impressed with his integrity, expertise and ability to analyze a client’s legal options and choices. Robert is a very skilled litigation attorney with vast experience in both state and federal trial and appellate matters. Unlike many attorneys who talk about litigating cases but have rarely if ever seen the inside of a courtroom, Robert has litigated hundreds of cases for consumers. He speaks from experience fighting for his clients “in the trenches”. He talks the talk and walks the walk. I highly recommend him."
