    "Give them a call. You want things like this handle by a competent attorney!"
    One that is there to help instead of someone who will treat you like another number. 5 stars isn't enough.

    "..Thank you Ast and Schmidt for all that you do!"
    I have personally used Ast & Schmidt and have recommended them to friends and family members as well. Robert and Antoinette are always responsive, timely, and available to go over any questions or concerns I might have in what could be an otherwise stressful process. I can confidently say that I 100 percent trust Robert's guidance and quality of work. He and the staff go above and beyond to make sure I understand all of my options as well as the process from beginning to end. Antoinette always makes me feel comfortable when I call with questions and Robert's guidance and services have truly been a blessing in helping me transition out of some rough times so that I could move forward in my personal and professional endeavors. I can not recommend this firm highly enough. You will be well taken care of. Thank you Ast and Schmidt for all that you do!

    Throughout our experience with Ast & Schmidt, my husband and I were treated with the utmost respect and compassion. Whenever there was a question (even during COVID), Rob Schmidt was most accessible and helpful to us during this difficult time. We would recommend them to anybody who is undergoing financial challenges. Everyone associated with the company is attentive and a pleasure to deal with, even regarding the most trivial matters. Certainly, when addressing the complicated issues that arise during legal proceedings, Ast & Schmidt provides seamless and impeccable attention to every detail.

    "I can't say enough good things about this firm...."
    I can't say enough good things about this firm; especially Robert. I was not in the best place of my life when I sought help from him. I was vulnerable and afraid of what the future might hold for me. Robert treated me like I was just as deserving of respect as his wealthiest client. It was apparent that this is just how he treats all of his clients and is second nature to him. This is a caring , kind and gentle man. Who by the way, is the BEST lawyer I have ever known. Thank you Robert from the bottom of my heart on behalf of me and my entire ( 5 grandchildren) family.
