Exceptional Attorney!

Looking for an outstanding L&I attorney? If you need help with your case, call Robert Silber. He will take the time to listen, review your case and give you an honest assessment on where you stand. That was my experience with Robert. He really listened, answered my questions, reviewed my lengthy file... and provided legal guidance in resolving my case. Though more than willing to represent me in court, Robert insisted that I did not need to hire him at that point in time, He still provided me the legal assistance I needed to settle my case favorably. Over the weeks it took to settle my case, Robert was always there to answer my calls and emails, even responding after hours and over the weekend. Robert is truly one of the good guys who fights hard for the little guy with great compassion, honesty and integrity. Robert is an exceptional person and attorney.

L&I claim

I called Robert Silber and left a message for him to return my call. I was not expecting a return call until the next day or later. Robert Silber returned my call that same evening. He asked me to allow his request to review my L&I case online; therefore Robert had also reviewed it tthat same night.... Robert counseled me on the actions I should take on my L & I case. I recommend Robert Silber for your workers compensation cases.

Thank You Robert

I came to robert after a llong battle with the department . I have had 4 spine surgerys after doing my best to do everything the department required of me i was told i was non compliant.The department has a way of making you feel like your not important or of any value as a person .After being tol...d your wrong so much i started to feel maybe there right .I then began to lose all hope .I called robert as a last chance .I truely believe robert saved my entire world because they had won I was beatdown.After i met robert he showed real concern for me as a person not just a client. The deptartment wanted to close my claim and pay me 4,000 dollars .Robert believed they were wrong not me and he fought hard for me and my family and he was right .we won a lifetime pension for me and my family.So i can truely say i am here today and my family is togeather only because of Robert Silber .He will always be a special friend to my family.And always in our prayers daily.I can only say you dont need to feel hopeless and alone you only need help..

Extremely Thorough

Robert represented my sister - she was his very first case. My sister worked for a self insured company who fought tooth and nail not give my sister her entitled early retirement due to an on-the-job injury. Robert fought even harder and was able to get my sister the financial security, (settlemen...t and monthly income) she needed for life. His attention to her case then, as well as throughout the years as changes were needed between L & I and Social Security, has been impressive. We have never had to worry that Robert did not follow through. If it is legal and right, Robert will fight for you and not leave you hanging with 'oh, I forgot to do that'. We highly recommend him.

"As an attorney who represents Employers, I have had the opportunity to litigate against many attorneys from around the state who represent workers, and I must say, that Robert is one of the most compassionate, hard-working, and competent attorneys on the claimants' side of the bar.
