My employer terminated all the management team that treated me horrible. You are an Excellent, Fantastic Attorney. I'm really grateful and appreciate your professional services! You woke up the Employer and opened up their eyes.
I was in dire need of a lawyer. I looked on Google and came up with Robert Rogers. Best thing that Google ever gave to me. Smart, personable, professional, freaking detective in his work. Open door policy, responded to every message I sent. He was cool and calm through the whole process. He called every move before it happened. If he thinks you have a case, then you do and he will go to bat for you. Thank you Robert!.
It was nice working with you as well. I am a big believer that attorneys can zealously advocate on behalf of our clients, without losing professionalism, but this is one of those rare cases where we able to achieve that.
Rob was an excellent lawyer who was very personal in dealing with my issues and always responded to me quickly when I had questions. He also had very much human compassion for what I was going through at that time in my life. He is a really wonderful person to work with and I would highly recommend him to anyone that needed this kind of service.
Rob Rogers and his entire team were FANTASTIC. I had a dispute over unpaid commissions and Rob was very experienced! He knew case law and had ideas that helped me recover my commission due, plus more! I am very pleased with this firm, and would HIGHLY recommend this team!

I do very much appreciate you following through and making this possible. It speaks to your knowledge and also care with how you approach your work and your advocacy for small business and people like me who will not be familiar with this intricate and complex process.
I want to take a moment to thank you. I have contacted a few attorneys. Many have given me vague information, and some have flat out stated that I have no case. You sir have really done some research and looked into this matter with a sense of care. I could tell when we spoke last week that you were very diligent in your questioning and out of the 50 or so attorneys I have conversed with over the past few weeks, you have been by far the most thorough.
I want you to know that I was very impressed with your deposition style.
Thanks for the good news and doing such a great job as our counsel. All of your efforts in leading us through this ordeal are truly appreciated.
