Robert Sainburg

I am very lucky close friends recommended Robert Sainburg and I had to look no further. My experience with Robert’s firm is that you will always be told the truth and there will be no sugar coating, which is an important Value I wanted in a representing attorney. Robert always kept me well infor...med of any situations/ communication and the various options at hand to navigate through a challenging divorce. Responses to calls/ emails were always very prompt. Robert is to the point, exacting and most of all has the ability to look at the situation at hand and come up with outside the box solutions. He is very professional in his billing methodology and provides a monthly summary statement with detailed notes of time spent on the case. Robert is very detailed and covers issues that might be unique to the situation at hand. Robert’s firm is a highly experienced and very competent law firm.

I was looking forward to writing a good review of Mr. Sainburg’s practice upon a positive impression during my consultation with him. I hadn’t made up my mind as to whether or not he was the right one for my case as I left his office, but he was very insistent on inviting me back to his office and pr...omised that he would be able to help me get the best outcome possible. It made me think that he was passionate and he kept demonstrating his utmost confidence in his ability to best help me. He promised me that he could work out a lot of issues in the proposal of the opposing party, correct them, and resolve my complicated case in my best interests. After 8 months, following all of Robert’s instructions, step by step of his guidance, providing his office with every single possible document he requested, and even hiring an outside accountant to compute and audit all the documents the opposite party calculated and provided, Robert summarized in one sentence that the offer the opposite party was written just fine. Did I really just spend 8 months just for him to agree to what the opposite party had proposed?!!? This got us nowhere from the initial proposal I showed him the day I met him!! He made no effort to change the demands of the opposite party and got me to an awful solution that could have been reached without his help. His 8 months of “help” gave me nothing… During all this time, I was able to get very familiar with my case myself, and was helping him come up with ideas and thoughts. After my frustration, I asked Robert to draft from scratch an alternative offer that he could present to the opposing party, based on everything he learned about my case and HIS professional knowledge. I wanted a reasonable and realistic offer that would be taken seriously by the opposite party. He wrote a too good to be true offer, making probably fun of me in his head, and making the other party laugh at two of us. By that time, he charged me everything I have saved all my life, and told me that I have no choice but to accept the opposite party’s offer. I was shocked. He also told me that he is very busy with other cases and he is sorry that he doesn’t work 100% anymore on my case. He reduced his fees twice, but still charging me for duplicating the documents that were provided to him more than once. He ultimately completely lost interest in my case right at the very end, dropping me in my time of need after spending so much time and effort familiarizing himself with my case all because I asked him for explanation of his work. So instead of finding the solution, he showed me to the door and presented me with the attorney’s substitution form. I would never, ever recommend Robert to anyone due to his lack of results and lack of integrity in his work. I regret trusting his confidence that he showed me upon first meeting him, and wish I had known that it was all just a facade. He got me nowhere, and only drained me of my life savings.

Robert really knows what he is doing! He is such a great divorce attorney! He helped me to settle my divorce the best possible way, even though it was not easy and I was not always on easy client. When I first came to him, my financial situation was much better than it became in the near future (not ...because of attorney fees). Robert gave me a financial break, I was able to pay later for his great job that never stopped because of my money situation at the moment. I am still able to call Robert for on advise long after my case was settled. I would hardly recommend Robert to my any of my friends as a divorce attorney.

Have hired this attorney in 2011. Had an ugly case and Robert jumped on it right away and quickly defused it. He is very aggressive and very professional lawyer. Spend tons of time on my case to resolve it and the same time has helped me to control my funds. He is honest and very diligent. Hire this ...attorney and he will fight for you.
