“From the minute my now x-husband and I met with Robert, we both felt comfortable and confident that he and his firm were a great fit…. Divorce is unsettling but the firm and their confidence, consideration and responsiveness made this very challenging time much easier to navigate. I am grateful for the whole team at Hornberger Verbitsky. Patty is also the “bomb” she was always kind and patient with me, which was a blessing during this very difficult life changing time.

“At arguably the most difficult time in my life, Christine helped me cope with my situation and gave me a solid basis for hope going forward. She got to know me. She understood what I wanted and helped me understand my legal options. Christine is intelligent, incredibly well-versed in the law and was able to pro-actively take the bull by the horns in caring for both my legal and emotional needs. Instead of letting things drag on, Christine stayed on top of my case and kept costs at a minimum. She was always available to me, fast, efficient, knowledgeable, and caring. I highly recommend her professional services.

— Cristina Romero

“[They] stood up for me and made a painful experience easier.”
