Honest, straight to the point, very effective

My husband wanted nothing more than to run me into the ground. Robert was excellent at getting things done and keeping his attorney in check. He was always available, answered all my questions, and was very reasonable with his cost. He got me through a terrible situation and I can't recommend him eno...ugh.

Not an attorney to pick for a complex case

Robert was my attorney from 2012 through 2015. He failed to file, before the expiration of the statute of limitations, a motion to set aside an unfair judgment that was extorted from me when I was not represented. I lost over 800K due to that mistake by Robert. He made other mistakes that were cost...ly, was apathetic, refused to do anything while the OP was unrepresented, was not knowledgeable, and lacked strategic insight.

Straight forward, no sugar coating attorney

Robert is very straighforward. He will tell you honestly what to expect right upfront. He is well prepared and very proactive. I found very few surprises, as everything was explained to me from the beginning. I like the fact that he understands your situation and uses his legal expertise as well ...as compassion to resolve your issues and questions. Robert is also very fair in his rates and billing practices. Definately give him a call.

Too inexperienced.

I was a little disappointed when I used Robert for a custody case. He always seemed like he was on the defensive and surprised by different things that the opposing counsel challenged him with. Deer in the headlights look. Maybe in a few years he will have more experience under his belt and be mor...e effective.
