Birnbaum Family Law - Benicia, California

B G

I had a very complicated case with my ex wife and Robin as well as staff answered all my questions plus went above and beyond their duty. The other party had many issues with fraud domestic violence and other problems Robin Birnbaum had me document and prove during my case. Price was fair especially for the complexity of my situation. I would definitely recommend this lawyer to my friends and family. She’ll go to bat for you and explains everything clearly so you comprehend it.

Rock star of an attorney. Professional, patient, and kind with me as a client and a laser beam in the courtroom. Highly recommended.

I am so thankful for Ms. Birnbaum and her team Katie & Monique. These ladies are quite remarkable and very professional! They truly work as a team. When Katie is sending me my next hearing date, Monique is simultaneously sending me documents to look over and Ms. Birnbaum is calling me in the next few minutes for a follow up. It’s like clockwork. They mean business and these ladies are so dependable & get the job done correctly. Their response time is quick and very efficient. Ms. Birnbaum is patient and easy to talk to especially if you are not familiar with court lingo. She will provide you the best legal advice for family cases. I had hired a lawyer before Ms. Birnbaum many years ago when my child custody/ support case began and was very vulnerable. I lost that case and I felt so awful, helpless and hopeless. I was so disappointed of the lack of responsibility my 1st attorney had during my case. She did not have my best interest at heart. Recently I asked Ms. Birnbaum to represent me after my ex-husband filed a new motion on our court case, I couldn’t be more happier with this team. They truly have your best interest at heart. Ms. Birnbaum is very intelligent and quite firm. She does her homework very well and reviews your case thoroughly and gathers all the information she needs to prepare herself for your case. Don’t waste all your savings on attorneys that you sense don’t really feel like their working to help you. Every penny I spent on this team was well worth it. The peace of mind of knowing this team has my back and is fighting for me and my girls is priceless. I wish I would’ve met this team during my initial case back in 2013. I urge you to speak to Ms. Birnbaum and her team about any questions or concerns about family law, child custody or support. Their goal is to help you fight your case!

Robin warmed up to our child and they really bonded while taking walks around Robins office while they spoke with each other. I appreciate that Robin does her hardest to make sure our child follows court orders while Robin still allows the child to speak up and communicate their concerns to both Robin and the court.

This attorney served as a "minor's counsel" to my two children, committing fraud, per California Rule of court Rule 5.240, "If there are two or more children, any child would require separate counsel to avoid a conflict of interest." The Minor's counsel ignored any evidence, urged me to agree to everything my spouse asked (forcing me to lose my home, my pension plan and my children), ignored judge's orders to visit homes to observe living situations, only met with children's father and not with me, children's mother, and didn't secure for the children neither Mother's Day with their mother, nor any vacation time. Domestic Violence was completely ignored and 'safely forgotten' by this professional, who didn't forget to bill outrageous fees for her disastrous service. At the end, Ms. Birnbaum billed everything to the State of California and resigned from the case. The mother lost custody as a result of Birnbaum's un-professionalism, conflict of interest, and total misogyny. The father now uses the children as a way to control the mother and still doesn't grant her divorce under various excuses, keeping her a prisoner of his whims.
UPDATE: upon learning about this review, Ms Birnbaum put tremendous pressure on me to remove it, by copying her request to an adversarial party and his lawyer, causing me great distress by informing the adversarial party about my actions. This behaviour alone is highly questionable and unethical.

This lawyer is truly competent, compassionate and reasonable. Highly recommended.
