A Lifelong Advocate with Unmatched Practical Wisdom

When our family business faced a complex situation involving a commercial real estate transaction and a related entertainment contract, we needed more than just a lawyer; we needed a seasoned strategist. Bob Abdo was exactly that. His 55 years of diverse practice, from real estate to corporate and entertainment law, provided the perfect lens through which to view our multifaceted problem. He didn't just cite statutes; he drew on a deep well of practical experience to craft a solution that protected our assets and preserved a key creative partnership. The recognition he's received in these fields is clearly well-earned. Bob's guidance was steady, his communication direct, and his commitment to a positive outcome was unwavering. We emerged not only legally secure but with a stronger operational framework. For anyone in Minneapolis seeking counsel with genuine substance, I cannot recommend Robert Abdo highly enough.
