Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?
Hired him as attorney when getting a divorce. No kids involved, should be cut and dry. He billed me for $30,000 worth of services. I paid half, lost my job, lost everything in the divorce because he didn't do anything to represent me. After being harassed from my ex husband hired another lawyer and in two months and for $5000 this other lawyer cut the ties with my ex, got me everything back I had lost and accomplished way more than Craig Robertson and Robertson Associates had done in two years and $30,000! He came after me for the $15,000 I still owed him even though I was in employees for half of 2011 and my taxable income was $8000 for that year. He was even nice enough to add $3000 of late fees for me making my total $18,000 for a job not done! I got a loan and paid him what I thought was a lump sum pay off of $8000. I never received another bill, email or phone call saying I owed anything else. Ten months later I go to pay for gas and my bank card won't work, they had frozen my account for non payment. I called and emailed them because this was Friday afternoon, I would be penny less all weekend if they didn't unfreeze my account. Around 4:30 Craig emailed me back to tell me my debt owed was $16,000 and he would not unfreeze my account until it was paid in full. My account is still frozen and no one has returned my emails. I bet his family doesn't go without a meal this weekend. If you want a lawyer who will fight for you, Craig Robertson and associates sat back and let my ex take everything from me. If you want a lawyer who will fight to make the most money for himself and not care who he hurts in the process then Craig Robertson and Associates his the guy for you. He claims to be a Christian community supporter but my dealings with him and his humanity have been a heartless money hungry lawyer who isn't even a good lawyer!

Client Feedback is Important to Us

Craig Robertson and Robertson + Associates would never respond to negative online feedback with specifics of a client’s case, but we welcome client reviews of our services and are always ready to address all concerns, whether legitimate or not.  Although not necessarily the case in this situation, negative feedback to attorneys is often the result of a fee dispute.  To avoid miscommunication about fees, we enter into a written agreement with our clients at the inception of every relationship, and we even provide them with a sample bill so they will know exactly what to expect before we ever start. Also, each client receives a detailed, itemized invoice with a description of our services each and every month their case is active. 

Domestic relations disputes are very emotionally charged.  Clients experience anger, sadness, bargaining and denial before they gain acceptance of their new life circumstances.  Sometimes anger can be misdirected at those who are trying to be helpful.  From time to time, lawyers make mistakes.  R+A nor any other law firm handles this difficult work perfectly every time.  However, when we make mistakes, we try to make them full speed, and we are honest and upfront with those we are trying to help.  Also, no lawyer can control certain dynamics in a domestic dispute, including but not limited to the other party, their counsel, the assigned judge, the court’s calendar or the facts created by the family dynamic.  This creates frustration for many.  Like other first class professionals, R+A attempts to give insight from a bird’s eye view, examining any given problem from all the way around, explaining the costs and benefits of a chosen path, including the attorney fees associated with a particular legal strategy.  Our firm employs a team approach which allows us to provide service to clients from multiple individuals and skills.  All work is conducted under the direct supervision of Craig Robertson. We are proud of Craig’s perfect 10.0 AVVO rating which we comes a network of trained personnel who assemble data from numerous, neutral sources. Our firm is grateful for the many positive and heartfelt client reviews we receive each month.
