5 reviews for Robert L Sommers, Atty
Loved working with Bob, no complaints at all. I was trying to figure out a property loan situation that had lots of ins and outs, and I was impressed with Bob's level of knowledge on a wide variety of tax and property topics.
He's very friendly, returns calls promptly, and is willing to walk through issues with you to determine the best course of action. He even followed up with me a few times after completing his work to make sure all had gone according to plan. I'll absolutely be using him again should any other tax conundrums arise.

Bob Sommers came highly recommended to me when i needed help in determining what type of corporation would best serve my needs and tax liabilities.
The most important things to consider when hiring a legal professional:
1. Can they deliver on what has been discussed
2. Will they return your phone calls promptly
3. Can you trust them
Bob Sommers goes beyond what you would need or expect and makes sure that you are legally covered in all matters.
I recently recommended Bob Sommers to a friend who lost his wife. Bob was able to assist and take care of all financial matters quickly and with the deepest compassion that you would want for a good friend.
There is no better tax lawyer that can found. I recommend Bob Sommers highly for his skills and integrity.

I'm a tax attorney as well . Bob Sommers wrote the book that I use in my own tax practice to advise clients on foreign investment. I think that says it all right there.

I have worked with Bob on several tax issues. I am a colleague of his, rather than a client. He is as knowledgeable about the issues as anyone I have ever encountered and I am a CPA and tax attorney myself. Along with his top notch brain power, he is also very easy to work with and has an engaging personality. You will feel good working with Bob. He is excellent.

Bob Sommers must be the best tax attorney in San Francisco! When I asked for recommendations, his name came up several times. I have used him, and refered both my parents and my grandmother. Bob gives great advice, is very personable and most importantly- reassuring. Even the Wall Street Journal calls him for comment! Call Bob for any tax, trust or estate needs.
