The child who got to live with her dad
My father hired Robert Getz after losing myself and my brother in his original divorce. My mother was horrible to my father and withheld us for child support more than anything else. After my dad hired Robert within a year we were living with my dad, He made a miracle happen that my brother and I nev...

Poor representation
Took a pretty cut and dry case and turned it into a six hour mediation. Cost me almost as much money as my divorce to mediate a small section of my parenting plan against my wishes. Spent 2/3 of our time listening to personal stories that had no relevance to my case. Waste of my time and money.

Brilliant, thorough, absolutely recommended
Bob was referred to me from another attorney who didn't have the time to take my case (a difficult child custody situation.) Bob was described as "on the expensive side, but tough as nails." He is worth absolutely every last penny. This man knows the ins and outs of family law. He acts quickly, is ar...

custody battle
I had a very long and drawn out custody battle and Mr. Getz eased the process. He never made any promises that he couldn't keep. He answered all my questions and took away a lot of the stress.I found as a father that in the courts eyes we are lucky to have any right to our children. Mr. Getz got them...

Best interest at heart...
After being misrepresented and having poor representation in a divorce and custody battle, I later found out that I was facing yet another battle. The verbiage on my divorce decree was incorrect and was keeping me from receiving what what agreed upon. I found Bob to be willing to take on my case as...
"I endorse this lawyer. Bob is an accomplished attorney and knows how to get things done in the best possible way. If it means negotiation, he's incredible; if it means trial work, he's superb. You couldn't ask for better representation."
"Bob is an outstanding attorney, a zealous advocate and a kind, compassionate individual. He is absolutely amazing. As an opposing counsel, he is a formidable foe. I have known Bob since the very start of my legal career. When I need help with a particularly complex legal issue, he is the first person I call."
"I have had the pleasure of having Bob Getz on the other side of my cases in the past, as well as having him as my next door neighbor. He is an aggressive (when necessary) and competent advocate on behalf of his clients which has certainly resulted in some memorable tete-a-tetes in the courtroom. I endorse him without hestitation."
"It is a pleasure to endorse Bob Getz. He is one of Snohomish County's most respected lawyers. Bob is President of the Snohomish County Bar Association Family Law Section, an honor from his peers that means a lot. He was a lawyer in the Navy and is a superb choice for people in the Navy who need a lawyer. I have the highest respect for Bob; he is one of the few lawyers that I regularly consult. Bob's low rating from AVVO is absurd, the result of AVVO's over-reaction to clearly excessive Bar discipline because he got involved with a woman who wasn't even a client. His law firm runs like a well-oiled machine, providing excellent service for his clients. Your choice of attorney should be based on what's best for you, not on whether or not your lawyer got burned when a woman kissed and then told. Many male litigation attorneys have more than our share of testosterone, and that's good for our clients. Give Bob a call; you'll be glad you did!"
