Douglas Newborn

Probate lawyer | Jun 26

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Robert is a class act and easy to work with. I've had the pleasure of working with him on a potentially contentious probate issue between siblings. However, we were able to come to an amicable resolution and our respective clients are moving forward together towards one goal."

Christopher Benson

Personal injury lawyer | Aug 07

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I endorse this lawyer. Bob is well known for being an excellent litigator and not afraid to take on tough challenges. I've known Bob for a long time and i highly recommend him."

David Reed

Litigation lawyer | Mar 20

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. NBo one who knows Bob Van Siclen would accuse him of being timid or unwilling to try a case if that was best for his client. He has vast trial experience and success that puts him in a very high level of advocacy few lawyers obtain. But what people may not realize until they work opposing Bob on a case is how he is expertly able to use civility as such an effective tool on behalf of his clients. Recently Bob and I were faced with a very serious and high stakes dispute between family members in a family owned corporation. Thanks is large part to Bob's insight into the legal, economic, and interpersonal issues of the case, as well as his professionalism, we were able to settle this case in a way that really was the best solution for all the parties. Bob is among the very best."
