Robert Joseph La Rocco

Although I have not yet met with Robert, we hope to soon. I messaged him late evening, thinking he would respond the following day. He responded within 15 minutes. He spent about 30 minutes on the phone with me disucussing possible solutions to a very negative outcome in child support for modifica...tion case my husband is involved in. We hope he is the aggressive trial lawyer he conveyed to us during the short time we talked to him.

Robert went to my first hearing and called me to say it went "Horrible, Horrible. Horrible." He then told me that he would get an "Emergency Hearing" for the child support or at worst there was a 90 day review. Neither happened. At the "mediation" facts were misrepresented. When the draft came via em...ail I called to say it was not acceptable. 90 days later I sent Robert an E-mail detailing WHY as I had not heard from him. My Ex was telling me that my attorney hadn't been at any of the court dates or meetings, I was unaware of ANY court dates or meetings with the exception of the first. At the mediation Robert told me of several Judgements against me of which I was unaware. I called the umbrella group and complained. Robert called on a Friday to request the same documents I has sent the previous year and said he was on it. I complied and heard no more. I went to the Court house to get the "Do it yourself" child support modification and found that it was a permanent order, I also discovered that the final decree had been filed 6 months earlier, there were no signatures on the court copy, mine or Roberts, he apparently "waived" my right to appear. I again called the parent group. They explained that I had a responsibility to understand the papers, I told them I did, and had tasked Robert immediately upon receipt. So after a year and 4600 dollars I am divorced without having been to court, signed a final document, or had my wishes represented or explained why not. I was also told that Robert was not working on the modification as he had told me in a pleasant e-mail from Divorce Lawyers For Men. I understand losing a ruling, but I do not believe I was represented, or bare minimum representation without explanation. Result, no house, no retirement, bad visitation, and a pile of unnecessary debt. I would have been better off doing this myself. Probably a great tax lawyer

I hired Robert after looking for an affordable lawyer, and I was running out of time: my trial was just two months away, and my spouse's attorney was a really aggressive person. I would have lost everything if it weren't for Robert! I'm so glad that I found him! At trial, I was impressed by his pa...ssion and his ability to cross-examine. He exposed the four witnesses lined up against me, and I got almost everything I wanted. The judge just didn't believe what the witnesses said against me. I got the real estate and 80% of the money we had saved. If I had found him earlier, and he could have prepared better, I would probably have done even better. Robert is very busy, and it shows, but he's really good and very passionate about his clients. I recommend him without hesitation.
