Bob and his team worked tirelessly, efficiently and precisely on my case. He came highly recommended and I was not disappointed. He also took the time and effort to make sure I understood every aspect of my case and was always readily available for any questions. His attention to detail was impressive and he left no stone unturned. Bobs knowledge of case law far exceeded my expectations. All of these attributes Bob has combined ultimately led to the victory in my case.

I hired Robert Sidweber four years ago for a divorce and worked with him for months before my husband and I reconciled. Fast forward four years later and I didn't think twice about calling him again. My divorce took 100 days from the first contact to set up a meeting until the final judgement. He and his assistant Samantha were fantastic in every way. They were patient and kept me informed every step of the way. Bob has the most gentle way about him, but you know he is tough as nails when he needs to be. I would recommend him to anyone.

I hired Mr Sidweber years ago and I have to say since then I have had many attorneys and I feel that Mr Sidweber was actually the only attorney that kept in the loop and tried to solve all problems within reason without getting my hopes up. A very down to earth person, always on time and the process was as good as it could be within the resources I had to use for my situation. I appreciate everything that Mr sidweber and his Partner Karen did for me. I was always a priority when I was in the office and in the courtroom. You can not ask for anything more.

Bob handled my dissolution of marriage. It was filed in October and finalized to my total satisfaction in July. Throughout the entire process, I was kept informed. My inquiries to the law firm were handled quickly. I can highly recommend Bob. He made sure my interests were protected at all times. He is truly the best.

Mr. Sidweber is one of the most intelligent and sophisticated individuals I have ever come in contact with, which is why he is he is highly respected amongst his community. He has been my lawyer for many years, getting me through my very long, intense, and painful divorce. He has consistently stuck by my side while my ex has gone through a numerous amount of lawyers. Bob's skill set is beyond impeccable. His strategic and analytical mindset, along with his natural persuasiveness, has successfully won every single one of my legal battles. With him by your side, you never have to worry about feeling stressed or intimated walking into the court room or facing your soon-to-be ex with his or her opposing attorney because Bob's resilience and confidence will rest assure you that you are in the best hands possible. I always felt so comfortable consulting with Bob; he always makes the time to pay attention and care for each and every one of his clients by promptly responding with diligence and thoroughness. I wouldn't want anyone else to fight for me and my children, and I can honestly say I trust him with my life. Just know that if you not only have the chance, but the privilege to have Bob represent you, consider yourself a very fortunate person.

I hired Bob Sidweber after interviewing several attorneys. Bob and his team kept me informed throughout the process and I always had my phone calls returned. Bob was able to draft complex legal documents and relayed their meaning to me with great patience. If you are in need of an articulate professional, I would highly recommend Bob Sidweber and his staff.

I was in a long term marriage to a very controlling husband. Bob Sidweber knew how to handle him. My ex tried every trick in the book including attempts at severe “gas lighting”. Bob not only kept me strong, but always carried himself in the highests ethical and professional standards. The case took two and a half years to settle. Bob’s amazing legal skills, compassion, and thoroughness landed me the settlement I deserved.

I can’t say enough about my experience with Attorney Robert Sidweber fighting my case. When you hire him, you are hiring a team of competent individuals who strive for the best outcome for you. They are thorough and responsive, and kept me informed each and every step of the legal process. My only regret is that I did not go to him first. It would have saved me a lot of time, money, and aggravation. Don't make the same mistake I did ! Juby D

I was referred to Bob Sidweber by my trusted CPA of 15 years, who only refers vetted, trustworthy, and competent professionals. After having Bob prepare documents for me and represent me in an unrelated case, that’s exactly the qualities he demonstrated. His advice and fair strategies saved me from a possible continuous legal battel. I was always connected to Bob immediately when he was in the office, if he was in court he would return my call while on the next break. That’s an old school quality that is almost extinct. His assistant, Wendy Erdmann really helped everything run smoothly. I also noticed that his office staff are extremely friendly and helpful. If I had a negative experience, I would tell you. His price range is normal, you get what you pay for. I am happy with the outcome of both my cases due to Bob Sidweber. He is my go to family Lawyer.

I hired Bob for a divorce case that we thought would be straight forward but ended up lasting over a year. All along the way, Bob and his staff kept me informed, responded quickly to my calls, and explained the process and my options very carefully. I always felt that I was more than just a client for Bob and that he truly cared about the outcome of my situation. I was fortunate that I worked with him during a very difficult time.
