Robin is Excellent
Robin helped my brother in a very difficult custody battle last October and really went above and beyond. Very communicative, warm, pragmatic, determined, and absolutely professional. She was a blessing to my family and got my brother more time with his little girl and all of us. Don't even hesitate...
"Mrs. Birnbaum is the attorney you need when going through a divorce or custody dispute. Mrs. Birnbaum is not only an intelligent woman, but she is kind, compassionate, reasonable, understanding, and dedicated to proving the right result. I highly recommend Mrs. Birnbaum for all family law matters.."
