Testimonials

Mr. Oliver explained to and advised myself and other family members in an in-person meeting about various legal options we could pursue to resolve a dispute.He also recommended negotiating a resolution using the services of a different legal office in a different city. He suggested the other lawyers would be familiar with the laws where the dispute took place. His support and advice led us to the right kind of attorney who in turn worked with us to write an agreement that led to a satisfactory resolution. Mr. Oliver gave us a clear explanation of the legal options but at the same time was understanding of the emotional views of all parties. He was professional and knowledgeable and I would trust him to assist us again for a future need.

Thanks so much for the time you spent to put together the facts of my case. You did a magnificent job. I am so blessed to have you as my attorney. Yourwarmth, empathy and knowledge will carry you a long way. You gave sound, clear and practical advice on the issues. I highly recommend you.

Not only is Bob a true professional; but he is able to deliver complex advice and recommendations in clear easy to understand language which is a real gift.

When our father passed away, he left a fairly complex estate, well beyond our ability to manage as executors. We needed an attorney with equally diverse skills. Someone comfortable with a mix of asset types and properties. Someone adept in tax, family, and estate planning strategies. Someone able to navigate legalities across multiple states. And above all, someone willing and able to listen to our priorities, and to calmly navigate varying points of view.

There were, no doubt, many other attorneys who could have provided us competent counsel. We chose Bob, not only because he clearly had the requisite expertise and experience, but also for his demeanor. Throughout the process, he was not just thorough, methodical and clear; he was also patient, understanding, unflappable, and unfailingly kind.

Bob’s nuanced understanding of our personal goals allowed him to offer creative solutions I suspect many attorneys may have missed. He consistently went beyond, “Here is the simplest solution,” to “Here is a way we can achieve your more challenging goals, and here is why this approach is right for you.” The resulting strategies helped us circumvent several potential pitfalls and led to multiple win-win solutions.

Anyone dealing with that uniquely challenging period, where great personal loss coincides with great legal complexity, would do well to consider retaining Bob.
