Long-term client. Very Satisfied.

Robert was referred to me by the Brooklyn Bar Association when I needed a lawyer to handle my divorce. I was very satisfied with the way he negotiated for me, particularly when it came to my children. I have continued to consult with Robert after the divorce as well. He has been my attorney for 8 yea...rs. He drafted my will, sold my house, handled my mother's estate, and wrote a prenuptial agreement for my daughter. I find him to be straightforward, honest, friendly, understanding, and professional.

Robert Wanker is a great lawyer

Robert Wanker is an excellent lawyer. He represented my children in Family Court. He is thourough honest, and intelligent, and he is in it to win in, which he has a great record of doing.

This attorney is unprofessional and dishonest

The attorney represented the executor of my grandmother's estate, a house in Brooklyn. He not only acted as the attorney for the estate but acted as a real estate agent , selling the house against our wishes. He then moved the proceeds of the estate out of an escrow account and then refused to pay t...he money owed to the beneficiaries, although he paid himself $90,000 and paid the executor. We still do not have our money and are filing a grievance complaint and a complaint with the bar association. The DA told us he acted improperly and may be laible for the amount owed to us because he has not protected the money.
