A Lifeline After a Devastating Aviation Accident

After my family was involved in a small plane crash, we were overwhelmed and unsure where to turn. Hiring Anita Porte Robb was the best decision we could have made. Her 43 years of experience, particularly her national recognition in aviation and personal injury law, were immediately evident. She and her team at Robb & Robb LLC meticulously investigated the case, explaining complex legal and technical details with clarity and patience. Ms. Robb’s formidable reputation, backed by her cum laude education, clearly commanded respect from the opposing counsel. The settlement she secured has provided my family with long-term security and the ability to focus on healing. She is a brilliant, compassionate advocate who delivers exceptional results.
