DO NOT RETAIN HIM

Save your 5k, and KEEP LOOKING. Regrettably I hired him, and it was such a horrible idea. So unprofessional, his entire office is a disaster, and he has very poor social skills.

Great Attorney

Bob is the best! I have hired him several times and each time he got the job done! He is effective and fair!

Saved my Life

I first spent over $5K on the "Best in Bellingham" who inhaled all of it and did NOTHING! A mover told me in passing that there was a guy in Bellingham that never loses. I called Robert as they carried my stuff out of the house. He took my case, put a stop to all of her lies, made her face reason,... a miracle to say the least. He cost less for the year of great service than the "Best" did for 5 weeks! Do yourself a favor and call Robert first!

A true professional

Not only does Mr Och have cool hair, he and Candace get the jobs done. I hired him for a divorce and custody case, and I never had to second guess them or felt the need to worry with them handling all the details and making my case. He's worth saving for and hiring first. He never tried to ta...lk me out of fighting for what I wanted and he understood my resolve to win. Hire him and know that his loyalties never waiver away from his clients. His hair is pretty cool too.

It couldn't have gone any better!

Bob was the third lawyer I had paid well over several thousand dollars to and thank God I did! From his reaction to hearing my story the first time we met (outraged at the other party for keeping my daughter from me for over four months) all the way through our long phone conversation weeks after cou...rt had been settled... Bob was a honey badger working in my corner. I had a lot that could have created some bumps in the road in regards to my case, and Bob was upfront and honest with me at all times. If I made a suggestion which he didn't agree with or he didn't feel we would have a good chance of winning the argument. . . He told me not to waste my money. Some people may take offence to being told No by someone they are paying. . . but Bob knows his stuff and I'd put away or take out my wallet without hesitation whenever he asked it of me. I am still currently working with Bob as my daughters mom is never short of 'horrible ways to undermine' . . . and I would, in the highest regard, recommend you hire Bob Och to represent you in court. Don't waste thousands on the wrong lawyer when the right lawyer is right here.

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"Mr. Och has been my opposing counsel on several cases. He knows his stuff and keeps me on my toes! Despite the adversarial nature of our business, he and his staff (Candace) are always a pleasure to work with. Clients benefit when the lawyers work well together, not only because the results are fair, but the legal fees are lower, too. Don't get me wrong -- he's not a pushover! Mr. Och knows his stuff. He should. He's been practicing law since God was a boy. I consider him a wise and worthy opponent who works diligently on his client's behalf."

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.
