Simply the BEST

Thank God for Robin Nottingham! I found her by chance searching the internet for a female attorney. Robin gave me her personal attention at the lowest time in my life. I had a previous attorney that just wasn’t helping me and was more interested in money than getting me divorced. After I released my ...first attorney, Robin had me divorced a month later! Robin gave me calm when I needed it, was always available when I needed her, and was very responsive to my calls and e-mails. She was very thorough and did her research and due diligence when it came to my JOD. Robin is compassionate and very good at her work. If you want the BEST, Robin Nottingham is who you need. Robin has been worth every dollar I invested with her!

Blessed by the BEST!

I sought the counsel of Robin Nottingham at an incredibly turbulent time in my life. I was in a state of shock, panic and confusion, after unexpectedly being served divorce papers (at work). Robin was referred to me as one of the top Family Law experts in San Diego. Upon my initial call, Robin picked... up her cell phone while walking to the Downtown Courthouse, saying she had a few minutes to talk. This struck me as something unique and refreshing, considering that most legal offices have layers of ‘gatekeepers’ to pass through before ever speaking with the Principal Attorney. Furthermore, she explained that she was about to leave town, but could meet me the following morning, a Saturday at 7:30am, for a free consultation. When we met, I felt an immediate connection, and throughout the divorce process, I continued to feel supported and empowered by her. • With Robin’s extensive experience, thorough research into case law & legal precedent, and her astute perception of human behavior, she tackled the complexities unique to my case. • Robin was compassionate and understanding, and during the more difficult and emotional moments, she was patient, reassuring and able to lead me back to the critical matters at hand and stay on target to achieve our goals. • She Set timetables to keep me on track, and was always ahead of filing dates and critical court deadlines. • Robin was responsive to my every call, text, question or need throughout the litigation. I never waited long to hear back from her, even if just to advise that she was in court and would get back to me at a specified time. • She is 100% a professional, and presents herself as courteous, well-organized and we’ll-informed in court and related interactions. • Robin is razor sharp and strategic in her litigation style... she determines when to wait out a move from the opposing client/councel, and when to make the next tactical move at a critical moment of vulnerability. • Robin is a tireless dynamo ...relentless and ready to pull out all the stops to achieve the best advantage & results for her clients. • Robin truly CARES! My divorce was highly complex and conflicted. But in the end, we achieved a settlement far better than originally hoped for. I credit Robin Nottingham for this incredible outcome, and feel so blessed to have been represented by the BEST!

The best

Attorney Robin Nottingham is a life saver. My divorce case was one of the first she ever had. I didn't know that at the time because she was so very competent and knowledgable . My case was very difficult involving the need for restraining orders, an eventual custody battle and divorce agreements. I...t took well over two years to finalize the divorce. Robin was there for me, legally fighting for my rights and the rights of my children also for the duration. Her knowledge of the law is incredible. She is passionate about assisting her clients within the parameters of the law. She is so very friendly and understanding. Do not underestimate those traits. She is a tiger in the courtroom!!!! Robin virtually saved my life. Without going into detail, my life was in danger at times due to the ex husband's behaviors. Robin was my ally, and she is my hero. The outcome of her legal assistance was all positive. My children are now adults and are doing well. I will never forget Robin for helping my family get out of a terrible situation. Thank you Robin. I will never forget you.

The Lawyer YOU want in a custody battle

I was so fortunate to be referred to Robin when I was faced with my ex-wife wanting to move our two boys out of the state and out of my life. Not knowing anything about all the complexities of a custody battle, Robin was available 24-7, on weekends, and so accessible as an attorney AND someone who b...ecame a good family friend of mine. She is very thorough in her research on the legal complexities of my case, especially being that I was the father of the children instead of the mother (who had the advantage). Without her astute understanding and grasp of the many different aspects of a custody battle that have NOTHING to do with legal precedent or evidence, I doubt I would have won the right to remain in my sons' lives. In fact, I won custody of them when their mother insisted on moving out of the state. I cannot say enough great things about Robin. She was always patient and always explained everything to me when I had questions. What makes her stand apart from others is her "heart" -- she understands the emotional turmoil you go through when you're fighting for the most important thing in your life.
