"I have known and worked with Robert Terenzio for almost a decade now! He is probably one of the most knowledgable reproductive attorneys in the United States. His insight is exceptional and his service from start to finish has always been exemplary... he is one of the few who would go beyond 'the retainer' to make sure his clients are taken care of."
