"Excellent and Knowledgeable attorney who takes the time to know the client and understands the complexities of many legal strategies. Highly recommended! Thanks Bobby for you excellent legal advice"
"Empathetic, caring, strategic, and precise. Was a great experience working with Bobby."
"Bobby took the initiative and time to fully look over my request even before our phone consultation, which enabled us to more accurately discuss the project than I experienced with others on UpCounsel. This attention extended to the project itself, and I am very pleased with Bobby's communication, diligence, and work."
"Bobby possesses a warmth that we have missed since he left KBIC. I am exceedingly confident that you will find him an exceptional team player, and you will look forward to interacting with him each day. For the longest time after he left, we felt Bobby's loss not just in his productivity and legal acumen, but in the pleasant manner that made him such a friendly face to both our clients and within the Tribal Attorney's office."
"Mr. Roberto J. Escobar truly distinguished himself through noteworthy and exceptional service with the Office of Staff Judge Advocate. Mr. Escobar demonstrated unsurpassed professionalism and subject matter expertise in ensuring flawless continued execution of environmental law legal services to 25th Infantry Division/U.S. Army Garrison-Hawaii."
