Robin was intensely personal availing her time during my entire litigation. She managed to always make me fell as if I was the only client she was representing. She was both personable and professional with tremendous insight while creating a balance of preparation pre trial. She is truly gifted... as an attorney while embracing law and understanding of your particular situation. I would highly recommend Robin and her team. An attorney that sinscerely invests her talent, knowledge and skills enabling the very best results. Count on Robin....I did!!!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
