If you are facing a terrible situation with an ex-spouse or soon to be ex-spouse, you want Mr. Tenorio on your side. Robert helped me and my family through a 3 ½ year battle where my narcissistic ex tried to alienate my children from me and literally ruin me by making claims that were not true. I was terrified, but Robert was calm. He saw right through my ex and took him down on the stand in front of the whole courtroom. The judge saw my exes' true colors quite clearly after that. While I can say that I am quite glad it is all behind me now, I am ever so happy to have had Mr. Tenorio as my constant counsel and confidant through this ordeal. If you are afraid, stop crying and call Mr. Tenorio and get to work. He will see you through it and you will come out on top. Mr. Tenorio will make sure the truth is known. Once the truth is out, it is a mighty benefactor. I would give Robert Tenorio 10 stars if I could.

Robert supported our daughter's family situation by being a great listener and with a phenomenal presence in court. We attended several meetings with our daughter and Robert and ultimately testified on her behalf. Robert did a great job preparing us for our time in court encouraging us to be honest and be ourselves. He also helped us understand what the opposing lawyer was liking to challenge us in court. Robert listened SO well to all of our comments and concerns. He assimilated all of our input into a very concise and powerful presentation in court. He also exhibited a strong ability to react to the dynamics of a court proceeding with quick thinking as needed. He also exhibited great confidence and respect of everyone in the courtroom (including the opposing party) which helped influence the final result. We were extremely pleased with the outcome and highly recommend Robert to support and represent your family's best interests in a court of law.

I received news about my child that truly broke my heart and required immediate action. At 7:00 o'clock in the evening, Robert answered and accepted to help me without hesitation. The following day he was able to obtain a custody order, removing my child from her terrible situation and safely in my home. However, Robert went above and beyond the normal proceedings of a Family Lawyer. Within 24 hours he had not only found a counselor for my child but was able to convince them into making us an appointment. Within 48 hours and hearing the worst, I was able to begin moving my child's life back in the direction she deserved. The best! It's been 4 months since that nightmare began and because of Robert's diligence, hard work and attention to detail regarding his client and their family, my case has been settled and my child's future is secure. I'll never have enough words to express my gratitude for what he did for me. I consider Robert to be a true gentleman and friend.

Mr. Tenorio (we call him Robert), was brought onto our legal team after a lengthy wait for a trial date in my son's custody case. I was seeking more visitation time, more rights and more guidance for both parents in a final visitation order. Robert took time to meet with our other attorney, myself, and my wife, on a regular basis prior to our court date. He read every piece of paper, reviewed each log, and looked at every photograph in order to catch up on information and to be the best prepared. Robert's specialized knowledge of jury selection, courtroom procedure and legal processes was well studied and practiced. His ease both pre-trial and during trial helped set a tone of intensity with respect in the courtroom. Although I was 'fighting' for more rights and better access to my son, I never wanted the case to be about attacking his mother's character or exaggerating the story. I wanted the truth presented and a voice given to my son who was suffering out of my care. Robert treated witnesses with a very professional combination of extreme seriousness and respect. His preparations for trial and his courtroom focus were always on giving my son's needs and his story a voice. It was never made to be about myself. When things became 'tense' during trial, Robert was always calm and collected. His expertise at determining what should and should not be given time during trial helped to ensure we got what we came for. The most important quality Mr. Tenorio possesses is empathy. Not only did he agree with the concerns I had for my son, but he felt them and he fought for my son as if he were his own child. He didn't badger the other side, he didn't lie or exaggerate, he didn't even yell or scream. Robert used his vast knowledge of the legal world and the compassion in his heart for families to help my son receive the family time and personal care he needs to be the best version of himself as he gets older. We won't ever be able to express enough how much Robert's hard work means to our family. We know that Mr. Tenorio will always be available should we need him again and that leaves us with a strong sense of security for the future.

Robert has been my family’s attorney for the past 10 years after a previous attorney was no real help with a legal matter. Once we hired Robert we saw immediate positive results and a favorable outcome in the legal matters working together. Robert always provides the best service and advice to his clients. His legal fees for his services is reasonable and more affordable than some of the bigger name law firms in the area. Robert is an attorney you cares about his clients and family. I normally do not write reviews but I felt after the numerous times he has represented us to speak out and strongly recommend The Law Office of Robert H. Tenorio for your family law needs..

Worst attorney in Texas. Does not return phone calls. Did not show up to court, sent his "partner" who knew nothing about my very complicated case. Did not follow through on basic things like discovery. I eventually had to fire him and start over with a competent Attorney. DO NOT HIRE THIS GUY!

Any legal matter can be such an emotional and stressful time. You will not find a more competent and attentive attorney than Robert Tenorio. His attention to detail provides reassurance as you walk into the courtroom. When I've been stressed and scared it has been his confident demeanor that has resulted in the outcomes I needed the most. I would encourage anyone in need to seek Robert's advice. Mr. Tenorio is an attorney who will not approach your case in a manner that makes you feel like just another client.

Mr. Tenorio was always responsive and listened to my expectations of the divorce. He was always thoroughly prepared for my case and allowed me to have an active part in developing our strategies. I would highly recommend utilizing Mr. Tenorio. I could not have been happier with his work.

I was a waitress and met Robert at a restaurant. When he handed me his card I noticed it said law practice on it. I immediately broke into tears when he told me he practiced family law. I had been bullied for two years by the opposing party and had just about lost all hope for my custody case. I had retained several attorneys who took all my money and did NOTHING and I was broke and desperate. Robert smiled at me and gave me his card and told me to call him on Monday. I did. He worked with me and explained everything like a friend, gave advice like father , and fought for my case like a champion! With in a few short months my nightmare was over and I am forever grateful to Robert for putting that rein of terror to and end. Thank you!

I retained Mr. Tenorio for the first time in 2006. I was in a emergency situation with my husband, and new to DFW. I found Mr. Tenorio, spoke with him and I was in his office within a hour. Beaten down, a physical mess and very shook up. When I arrived , he was very knowledgeable about my situation. He stopped his morning and got me to the courthouse fast. Within a few hours, I was able to go back to my house and had my spouse removed . The depositions went wonderful , he was at my side through everything. I could not have retained a better lawyer or person, who truly cares about my outcome! To date, I have retained Mr. Tenorio again.... He has helped my daughter, worked on my parents estate & now me again. I am now disabled from a bad surgery and my husband just divorced me because of my health. He took all the household funds and left me in a horrible situation. This extremely difficult case was handled with such expertise and care. Robert Tenorio has saved me from my health getting worse, due to the fact that this man knows what he is doing!!!!!! Yes, this takes time, but I would rather have a lawyer that knows his business... I know get spousal support and can have my surgeries and have a longer life with my daughter! He fights hard and with grace !!! Number 1 in my book. I referred him to a friend for her divorce who had a dead beat husband. Her and her kids are doing great now, thanks to Mr. Tenorio! So, if you or your friends need a wonderful Attorney, retain this man and tell them to "BRING IT ON"

Robert is excellent if you just need papers filed. He can divorce you and get a reasonable settlement. When it comes to trial law or custody suits he is an amateur. He is dwarfed be professional attorneys in his field which he specializes in. He expects large payments, talks a good talk yet when it comes to trial he allows his clients to hang out and dry. He makes no objections to obvious situations and is completely inadequate in defense. I would not recommend anyone use Robert as a trial lawyer. If you want to get divorced, go for it. He might get you a good settlement but he is not aggressive enough for his chosen field.
