Working with Robert Wright

We have worked with WHC attorneys and with Brad Crockett and Robert Wright in particular for over the last 5 years, We sought their advice in dealing with a obstinate neighbor at Newman Lake who would not communicate and would take matters in his own hands causing damage to our property. Brad and ...Robert were always available and have given excellent advice and representation in the suit we filed against our neighbors. The law suit was eventually settled and we are very happy with the resulting settlements. We can recommend Brad's and Robert's counsel to everyone who has a property dispute. They are honest and forthright and will respond to your concerns professionally and directly.

Robert Wright and Samuel Fenton are the best. These two lawyers are both very professional and caring, they not only worked hard on my case they cared about me as a person.

Great guy to work with

We had a terrible and stressful situation that happened to us with a contractor and Robert couldn’t have been better attorney to have our back. It was so nice to trust him along with the firm Wolff, Hislop, and Crockett, PLLC and know they would do their best to help and not try to just get as much a...s money as they could from us. Really awesome guy in general as well, my husband and I enjoyed working with him despite the crappy situation the contractor caused us and he got us a great resolution in a timely manner all while being honest throughout the whole process. I couldn’t say better things about Robert along with the firm. If you have a contractor who’s screwed you over like us, this guy is the attorney to call.

Very intelligent and professional

Robert did such a good job with my custody case, and I couldn't be happier that I hired him. There were many times that something wonky came up in our case, and he knew exactly what to do and got it done that day. Highly recommend

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.
