Bob did a great job for me and my family. He took our best interests to heart and was always available to give advice. He understood how sensitive matters can be in a family business - he was both professional and careful to handle the matter in the most sensitive manner possible, leading to an outcome that left everyone involved satisfied. I can't recommend him enough!

Bob provided great advise that set our new business on the right track to success. His expertise in franchise business law, corporate governance, and commercial leases and loans made my job that much easier. I highly recommend Bob and his firm. In fact, Bob and I are already working together to get my second location up and running!

I have always found Mr. Baumgartner to be very objective and straightforward with me in regard to the issues we had at hand. He is very responsive and always proved to be very knowledgeable of the contractual issues we were dealing with. He never told me what I wanted to hear but what I needed to hear. He gained my trust from our first meeting.

Bob has been unfailingly attentive, supportive and, in his quiet way, aggressive. He keeps the process and expenses under control by focusing on attainable objectives that lead to the bigger solution. His patience, and ability to handle difficult personalities on the other side are particularly effective. He openly solicits his client's opinion and expertise to add to his own considerable knowledge and experience. I rate Bob and his firm easily the best I've ever worked with.
