Excellent Lawyer

If you want an expert that handles everything and fights for you-Robert Holmes is your best option. He was recommended highly by several lawyers that I knew and I was not disappointed. He is the lawyer that other lawyers want representing them. He knows the law and also knows how to get results. I w...as very nervous about going to court with my ex. He put me at ease and provided excellent council. I am no longer afraid of court or intimidated by the legal process. He is a tough lawyer and he did not let me get pushed around by my ex-which I needed and appreciated. I am pleased with the outcome of my case. My daughter has a great schedule and my ex is finally paying child support. Things are amicable between us but there is no more grey area. Ultimately his work has helped to lay the groundwork for my daughter to have a productive life. I am extremely grateful for his experience, efforts, and assistance in my time of need. I would strongly recommend him to anyone that needed a good family court lawyer.

Credibility is critical in the courtroom and Robert Holmes leads the way!

Divorce is an unpleasant reality for many and I was a party in a ridiculous and litigious divorce case. Don’t make the mistake I initially made settling for mediocre legal representation. I worked in the legal field for over 15 years and still made the wrong choice initially until I met Mr. Holmes.... My ex is an attorney. I needed the best in the in the business. I will admit that there were times I didn't always agree with Mr. Holmes but I listened to him and trusted his advice. Now that the trial is over I’m so glad I did. It was evident at every hearing and certainly at trial how Mr. Holmes earned his excellent reputation as a respected litigator and trial attorney. If you are looking for an attorney that judges and other lawyers respect, call Robert Holmes. Although my case is not completely over, I would highly recommend him without hesitation.

A Trustworthy Family Law Lawyer

I started working with Robert in May 2012 when I filed for legal separation from my spouse. Robert sat with me and clearly outlined my rights along with my children's father's rights. He's ethical and looks out for the best interest of the children involved along with the best interest of his clien...t. I trust him completely. I recently took my ex-spouse to court, and I was impressed with Robert's knowledge and expertise. I will continue to use Robert for legal advice and other Family Law business that may arise in the future. I strongly recommend Robert Holmes.

  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
