Leave a review about your experience with this lawyer.Bob is an extraordinary attorney. He's easy to deal with, an excellent communicator, extremely knowledgeable, incredibly responsive, and at all time a comsummate professional. He gets the job done efficiently and effectively without a lot of excessive overhead. I have dealt with many attorneys over the years, and he is the one I will choose time and time again.
Mr. Carlson was easy to work with and available to answer all my questions. He was willing to numerous accommodations due to my erratic travel.
Bob was recommended by a friend. We had several complicated issues with estate planning for me and my son. There were also real estate issues involved. First impressions were he’s extremely compassionate and knowledgeable My son and I were in complete agreement this was the firm for us. Calls are always returned in a timely and friendly manner. We’ve been friends for over 10 years. Bob has advised us on many things over the years regarding real estate and money management. Can’t say enough about this man.
Working with this attorney was a very positive experience. He was always punctual. He completed the tasks we had agreed upon. When necessary, he would go the extra mile to assist myself or my son with disabilities. I would highly recommend him.
It was a great experience to have Bob help with my fathers Will and updates. My father passed within the past 2 years and Bob's service and support made that difficult time more manageable. I would highly recommend Bob to anyone seeking counsel.
In the year 2000, my mother passed away. Robert was her attorney. He assisted in helping me through the probate process and has subsequently managed the trust that my mother established. Robert is knowledgeable and competent, but more so, compassionate and caring. He frequently dropped over to check on me during her funeral arrangements and offered a helping hand. I strongly recommend Robert's services. He is honest, ethical, and committed to helping his clients.
I have always found Robert to be responsive, professional and thorough. I always know he will return my calls in a prompt fashion and be available to answer my questions.
Mr. Carlson was very thorough in gathering information to prepare my updated will. He was very professional, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a good trust and estate attorney.
Attorney Carlson handled a contentious family inheritance issue first with kid gloves then with necessary force. Since then he has represented our family in setting up and administering a special needs trust for our severely mentally Ill son and the aspect of the trust that distributes funds to my myself and my husband while living. We appreciate his care and skill. Thank you Margie and Walter Linehan
Robert Carlson (Bob) has worked for my family for over 10 years now and is always a dependable and professional guy. Very happy to have him.
