Legal Services & Lawyers

For over 25 years, Robert has limited his practice to the representation of people injured through the negligence of others, including in motor vehicle collisions and wrecks caused by drunk drivers, while on the property of others, through defective products, as well as those who have been harmed by their own insurance companies. He has represented thousands of Arizonans who have been injured by the misconduct of others. On behalf of his clients he has collected millions of dollars from large insurance companies, major corporations, and numerous others who have caused harm to those clients.

His peers have given him the highest rating of "av" from the Martindale-Hubbell Law Directory, the largest lawyer rating service in the world. He has been selected as an Arizona "Super Lawyer" by Southwest Super Lawyers Magazine each of the first two years that this honor has been bestowed. This annual publication identifies the top 5% of attorneys in each state, as chosen by their peers and through independent research.

Robert has also been inducted as a member of both the Million Dollar Advocates Forum and the Multi-Million Dollar Advocates Forum. The MDAF is an organization recognized as the most prestigious group of trial lawyers in the United States. Only attorneys who have won multi-million dollar verdicts and settlements for their clients are inducted into these organizations. MDAF was founded in 1993 and includes many of the top trial lawyers in the country among its members. Currently fewer than 300 lawyers are members of the Multi-Million Dollar Advocates Forum. Certification by the MDAF provides recognition of the skills, experience, and accomplishments of only lawyers who have obtained settlements or verdicts in excess of $2,000,000.00. It also establishes a national network of highly experienced colleagues who engage in information exchange, assistance, and professional referral.
