California

Rob comes from a long line of attorneys. In total, there are eight attorneys in his family. Rob's wife, Amy, is a practicing attorney as well. Rob and Amy have a beautiful daughter and reside in Orange County.

Rob has tried numerous cases in most jurisdictions throughout Southern California. He has obtained several multi-million dollar awards for his clients and argued successfully before the California Court of Appeals.

He is a trial attorney at heart. However, Rob recognizes that Court is not always the best place for his clients. Rob's firm but, fair approach to litigation often opens the door for favorable settlement negotiations.
