He has always been an honest and ethical lawyer who does his very best for his clients in keeping with the highest standards of the legal profession. I endorse this lawyer."
"Robert Schwartz represented a co-defendant, as did I, in the high-profile "Bling Ring" case. The celebrity victims in this case were Paris Hilton, Lindsey Lohan, and Oliver Bloom, among others.

If you have been accused of a serious crime in the greater Los Angeles, you will want Robert Schwartz in your corner."

Bob is an outstanding lawyer who has tremendous experience as a trial lawyer, the respect of his peers, law enforcement and the courts, and is highly regarded and appreciated by his clients. He truly cares deeply about his clients and strives hard to achieve just results for them in an ethical fashion. Not only does Bob fight hard in the trenches in his everyday practice but he finds time to give back to the legal community through his tireless leadership in bar association matters. He is a lawyer's lawyer and a true lawyer for the people. There is none better than Bob Schwartz."
