Thanks to Attorney Robert Setterbo, I am now divorced with full custody of my daughter, who has started Kindergarten this year.. Thanks to his representation, my daughter and I were able to move on from this unfortunate and mentally tolling life event fairly quickly, and closer to recovery. It was literally life changing for me when I got to sign on with him.
His legal representation was solid, reliable, and honest at all times. He was clear about what I could expect, what would probably happen, and what needed to be done. (And in the end he was right about everything that he could tell me.) He was reassuring, but at the same time kept me real. It was just what I had needed.
In communicating, he is very prompt in responding to any questions that come up, and overall extremely reliable. I would recommend him to family and close friends without an iota of doubt! (And if by any chance at all he is not available to take your case, Kathryn at the same firm Wilkinson & Finkbeiner would also make for an excellent choice. His paralegal Anna was also super competent and thorough.)

One of my biggest considerations in searching for a new lawyer was the legal fees. It was a vulnerable time, because my daughter was involved and the stakes were high, and at the same time I was on a budget. How could I possibly find someone to put what seemed like my life in their hands? It seemed an impossible and daunting task to me at the time, especially after having such a negative experience with my former lawyer. That was until I got to speak with Robert.
From the beginning, it was clear that Robert is great at what he does, not to mention his empathy, honesty, and professionalism that I was shown throughout the whole process. He is definitely the kind of attorney that you want on your side, and can trust with your divorce. His razor sharp mind + the bonuses of sensitivity and integrity will make the process so much more easier for you. He is a rare find, and I will be forever grateful to him and Wilkinson & Finkbeiner!!. It is a privilege to have him represent you in court, and surely your choice will not be regretted!

I spoke with Meredith briefly over the phone and she definitely made me feel better over my custody concerns. I absolutely can't afford it but I greatly appreciate her feedback and the time she took to speak with me.

Attorney Robert Setterbo provided superior representation in my child custody and relocation case. Relocation cases are the most difficult to try (lasted a few years) but it was Robert who kept fighting and reassuring me that we have a strong case. It was an ugly few years of empty threats from opposing counsel and other parent but Robert was the one who kept it all in prospective. Robert is an excellent trial attorney and displayed his trial skills in court. Robert and Ana (paralegal) were knowledgeable about the law, was extremely responsive, had great time management skills, diligent in ensuring they responded timely to all time sensitive deliverables, Robert showed-up timely at all court appearances, and most importantly, they have empathy while providing professional service. I could not ask for more, Robert and his team provides superior legal services in family and child custody law.

Robert was extremely helpful and tactful in consulting me and helping me with my child support cases. He went way above and beyond to assist me in what I seem to think is an unfair system that penalizes fathers who want to make a contribution. He made sure that I was not taken advantage of and took this stressful situation of mine of my back. I highly recommend his service and he is trustworthy.

Atty Wilkinson provided me with the utmost professionalism & expertise while representing me through a divorce. He offered honest opinions about my case based on his wealth of knowledge without false hopes & upfront on potential outcomes. Responsiveness was prompt to all issues I brought forward & was easily accessible via email/phone. Going through this process was less than enjoyable and extremely stressful. I appreciate all that was done for me, felt that I was represented well and am satisfied with my outcome. I highly recommend Atty David Wilkinson.

Mr. Setterbo is one of the few honest attorneys in the business. Coupled with his deep understanding of the law, Mr. Setterbo is a force in and out of the courtroom. If you are a client of his, consider yourself lucky. If you are an opposing party, consider yourself not so lucky.

My review is based on working with Mr. Setterbo. I found his service and expertise to be top-notch. This is a daunting process that requires a tough, yet empathetic, professional. In other words, I needed someone who was both caring and efficient. I got that. Highly recommended.

When I first began working with Robert back in late 2014 i was a little skeptical at first. I wasn't used to a character such as Robert's.....at first. I quickly threw all skepticism aside once i got to know him better. My point is, Robert cares very much for what he does and he gave me hope at times when i felt like throwing in the towel. Thank you so much for all you have done and continue to do! I highly recommend his services, for he truly is a master at his craft! Thanks again for everything!

Robert is extremely smart and very professional. He handled my challenging case with poise and always had plenty of good advice and kept me informed all along the way. I certainly did not ever expect to need a divorce attorney, but when I did I was very glad to have met Mr. Setterbo.

To say my case is complicated is an under-statement, with international citizenship, finance and property issues on top of the "normal" set of problems needing to be navigated through with a divorce. Robert has been an expert guide all along the way. Highly recommended.

I worked with Family Law attorney, Robert Setterbo, after splitting with the father of my 18-month-old child. Robert was knowledgeable in regard to policies and procedures and helped me to feel prepared before my family court mediation and court date. He always had answers to my questions or concerns and was very responsive over the phone and via email. He worked with opposing counsel and the father of my child to create an agreement that included all of my key items for ensuring the health and safety of my child. If you are in need of a family law attorney, I would recommend him.

I was fortunate to have a lawyer friend who knows Robert’s work ethic and gave me a referral at a time when I really needed legal advice. Frankly speaking, I needed a lawyer after getting myself into a huge mess by trying to deal with my child support case by myself. It was the first time I have dealt with a child support case and of course, the opposing party tried to sabotage me to the best of their ability. After much thought, I made a desperate call to Robert. I remembered having feeling very nervous about my case and the potential costs…before calling Robert. After my first phone conversation with him, I felt calm knowing that my case was in good hands. Robert had a gentle, respectful demeanor, and was truthful and realistic about the different potential outcomes. I placed my trust in Robert for many reasons. He is realistic and honest about the potential outcomes and what-ifs. He is excellent at negotiating and helped me reach an agreement that met both parties’ expectations at a reasonable compromise. He further impressed me with his honesty in providing the cost of my case. I am still his client and will continue on with him if I need help with other legal matters.

From the moment I hired Robert for my complex custody battle, I felt at ease. Having spent stressful years in court and a lot of money, I was frustrated with many previous attorneys. Robert, on the otherhand, was always both honest and professional. He always returned my phone calls in a timely manner and worked efficiently to get things done. I would highly recommend him to anyone that needs representation for their family law needs.

Having to go through any situation that involves family law is never enjoyable. Robert went above and beyond to guide me through each step of the way. All though my case was anything but simple, he was able to explain everything and was very upfront about any possibilities to come with the tough decisions that needed to be made. It was great to have someone like him on my side that I could rely on.

My experience with Robert was outstanding. In the end I felt as if I was working with a friend who cared and not just a lawyer going through the motions. Thank you for everything Robert.

I hired David with W&F for my divorce. We didnt have alot of assets, but my now ex husband was trying to get alimony from me because I worked and he doesn't. My ex husband also was verbally and emotionally abusive to me throughout the marriagr.We went to yrial in the case , and David was awesome.He was very preoared aln although tje court was not allowed to consider abuse for alimony issie, we were able to show the judge that my ex husband was able to work and chose not to . ultimately we got a very favorable judgement
and I dont have to pay alimony. I highly recommend David!

Attorney Wilkinson is one of the best family law/divorce lawyers I've been around. We've been on opposite sides in the courtroom, and he always comes prepared, fights for his clients, and he knows the area of practice inside out.

My experience with W&F has been very positive. David has proven himself to be a skilled negotiator & litigator with the ability to navigate complex legal issues and decipher them in a clear and understandable way for those of us without a legal background. More than anything though I have appreciated his willingness to make himself available directly. Nothing is more frustrating when you want to talk to your attorney than having to go through paralegals who don't know what's going on.
