Keep your Cool

Remember, during the process of your divorce Mr. Farzad will become your most trusted ally. However, it may at times seem not so. Do not lose your cool. Do not focus on the cost. Do not focus on the present but look toward the future His strategy, persistence, and attention he offers to his clie...nts will be seen only when it's all over. No one wins in divorce but he and his staff will see that you come out on top. Free at last.

CHANGED MY LIFE! Understands high-conflict personalities

There are no words big enough for the gratitude I feel when thinking about the immense role Robert played in my paternity case. I pretty much begged him to take my case after coming across his website; it being the only one I have seen to date that acknowledges the game changer that is dealing with ...a personality disordered ex in the family court system. I had no prior knowledge of Robert's reputation or skill-set when I first contacted his offices, which was after ten months with another firm who made very limited to no progress in my case and who was falling victim to the same manipulative behaviors I was attempting to escape. Robert listened! He knew my child's name after our first meeting and used it to inquire about [his/her] well-being throughout my working with him. He knew my goals of settlement and worked towards those objectives throughout my case. He understood!! The realities and abuses of high-conflict personalities/difficult personalities is profoundly misunderstood in the general public and in the family law system. Robert "got it" from the get-go, was compassionate in both his understanding of my realities and also in his guidance to keep me out of the chaos and focused on what matters most to me - my child and being the mother I strive to be. He used his knowledge expertly in negotiations while at court and with opposing counsel. Robert walks his talk, with integrity, composure and insightful, skilled approaches to his cases. He was always respectful of opposing counsel, while keeping my child's realities in the forefront of his negotiations and arguments. In four months Robert had my case concluded with very nearly close to all I had desired in the final court orders. Worth every single cent and more! Only regret is that Robert wasn't on my case from the very beginning! Robert once stated to me that in years to come I would forget about him/his firm and move into a new life. I'd say on this he is wrong. It is because of his expertise and willingness to learn about what his client's go through that my life was positively altered forever. He is now embedded in my/my child's story and displayed actions and words in his representation of me that profoundly impacted my ability to move forward into that new life he spoke of. He is a beacon of light to anyone going through the family court system with a personality disordered ex.

You Need The Best!

I had the pleasure of being represented by Robert Farzad and he runs a full service firm with the support staff needed to go against the largest firms in the area. He was point on my case from beginning to end and was the most responsive attorney I've ever dealt with (including myself). Choosing a f...irm to fight for my family is one of the most important decisions I've ever made. I'm very cost conscious but when you're in the fight of your life, responding to false allegations, protecting a long standing career/reputation, and fighting for future time with your children, YOU CAN'T AFFORD to cut corners to save a dime or two. It was the toughest time of my life and Robert and his team are compassionate, understanding, and will focus you on what you can control and impact to get a better result. You will get through this process but having Farzad Family Law on your side will make it easier and lead to a better result. Can't say enough about the firm, their staff and the work they do. Don't tell Robert but I would have paid more for the outcome. Stay strong and true to yourself and you and your family will be fine.

take a few minutes to live my experience

Don't make any future regrets, do the right thing. If you're looking for a firm that looks out for you, that works as a team on your case, that treats you like family. I have to say I don't think any other team could make you feel the way they treated me. I have to be honest, they make you feel impor...tant, like your case is first priority. They're always available and able to answer any questions, you'll never feel ignored or pushed aside. A few friends of mine who had gone threw similar cases said they had totally different experiences with well known law firms. They were amazed at the way they were handling my case and how they treated me like a person and not just like some poor sap. I first contacted two different law firms before speaking with Robert, I then contacted one more law firm just to shop around and get the right attorney for the right price in my budget. The three other firms I spoke with seemed bland like they were speaking to another pile of paperwork and/or were way over my budget. Farzad Family Law was not the cheapest of the four but just a bit over my budget. When I spoke to Robert he maid me believe every good thing I read about him and his firm and even after I told him I would have to get back to him due to financial reasons.. from one parent to another he gave me very good advise on what actions to take whether I'd end up hiring him or someone else, advise I will never forget. My only regret threw all this is that I did not do this sooner. So if you continue to live a life that you know is not what you want or if your looking for the right team to represent you in court, stop waisting any more time. Get started on a new better way of living for yourself and your kids because what I was doing was not living ..it was just not dying I guess. Don't think its all easy from here tho. Yet don't worry, this team works with you to get everything you will need when the day in court comes. Trust me when that day comes you will see to where all those efforts went to. I got to see quite a few attorneys threw my time in court including my ex's and either you will be laughing at how some of these attorneys stumble on their own feet or you will be kicking yourself for hiring one. Robert on the other hand had everything he needed when he needed it, never shoveling threw a stack of papers looking for his next questions, never waisting the courts nor your time. I was honestly amazed when my ex and her witnesses were testifying and I'm writing Robert notes to appeal specific topics as he's reading them and typing up his fallowing questions all while objecting to her attorneys questions.. He might as well have been shaving too, he never broke a sweat. I could tell this was not his first walk in the park.. or more like a stroll ..and believe me when I tell you that the judge sustained 99℅ of his objections. I can't say the same for my ex's attorney.Are you willing to go with anything less than the best? I can tell you that I've already referred two new clients to him that saw Robert in action representing me in court ..that's got to say something. Anyways I can go on & on about why you should look no further but then again that's up to you. I'll leave you with this last question.. Who do you want in your corner when that day comes where you find your self in the middle of the fight of your lifetime?? Think that over but don't think too long, remember this time is precious and for some reason you're still reading this.. I bet you feel a little bit better thinking there's someone out there that I can trust and will have my back so do the right thing for yourself because I can guarantee you will remember this review when you end up in court kicking your self for not doing so. I wish you lots of luck on whatever steps you end up taking and don't forget about doing what you think is best for your kinds, put your feeling for your now ex aside and assure yourself that your doing the right thing. Good luck

Simply the BEST!

Words cannot express the gratitude I have for Robert and his staff. I contacted Robert via email around 1:30am out of desperation and I received a phone call same day. I was immediately put at ease by speaking with Robert regarding my case. My ex-husband had filed for full custody of our daughter for... the second time in five years. Needless to say, I was in a state of shock and disbelief, and desperate for help. Robert and I met a few days later and after reviewing all of the information I had to disprove the allegations, he took on my case. Four months later, my ex-husband not only dropped his full custody suit, but settled out of court to modifications on my terms. Robert, being the knowledgeable and stellar attorney he is, compromised with opposing counsel and my ex-husband, and managed to get my ex to agree to $10,000 in contribution towards my attorney fees. Robert and his staff are very forthcoming with information. They are very straight forward and always kept me up to date on new developments. I felt completely safe and knew that every person working on my case had my best interest at heart; as well as my daughter. I wouldn't have had the outcome I did without the care and representation of Robert Farzad. I highly recommend Farzad Family Law to anyone that is starting or going through a family law matter.
