While a full-time law student, Robert Montgomery worked in the Federal Defenders Office in Manhattan and clerked for the Honorable Vincent Broderick in Federal District Court for the Southern District of New York. He also worked for the Legal Aid Society civil division.

After receiving his law degree, Attorney Montgomery was immediately employed by the Legal Aid Society in Manhattan, one of the largest law firms in the country. He obtained extensive litigation experience as a criminal defense attorney, defending clients charged with the full range of felonies and misdemeanors.

He moved to Portland with his wife and soon opened the Law Offices of Robert Montgomery to specialize in family law. He remains committed to the areas of Divorce, Child Custody, Parental Rights, Adoption and other aspects of family law. He now offers over 35 years of accumulated knowledge and experience in these fields.

Attorney Robert Montgomery has personally experienced the divorce process in Maine and is proud to have provided many years of equal residential care as a single parent of his now-grown son.

Due to traffic and parking congestion, he  recently moved his Portland office from downtown Old Port to Falmouth, Maine, where client access is easier. He serves the Cumberland, Lincoln, Sagadahoc and York Counties for all family matters.

We really do appreciate your business and will work hard for you!
