About Robert
Biography
Robert K. “Rob” Jenner founded Jenner Law, P.C. in 2018, focusing his practice on helping individuals and families affected by the harmful conduct of others. His main practice focuses on cases involving personal injury, wrongful death, products liability, mass torts, and therapy abuse. What he enjoys most about being a lawyer is continuing his family legacy of social activism and fighting for social justice by representing the underdog – often against large, well-funded institutions.
With over 35 years of experience in the legal industry, Rob is a true career trial lawyer who is empathic and non-judgmental, leading a team-driven approach to every client’s case. His employees have worked with him for 10 years, 17 years, 21 years, and more, cultivating a culture of respect and family in the workplace which translates into superior client relationships and advocacy. He understands representing clients with physical, emotional, and psychological trauma and seeks to ensure they are not victimized again by the legal process after suffering the harm that brought them to his law firm for help.
Of working with Rob, his fellow lawyers have said, “Rob Jenner and his firm are the model for caring, compassionate, and effective lawyers. Rob is a listener. Especially for clients, Rob will make sure that he hears you, understands you, and that your voice will be heard.” His former clients have said, “Rob Jenner, treated me like a person, not a payday. I could contact him directly if I wanted to. His staff were always polite and willing to help me with any questions that I had.”
Rob graduated from Franklin & Marshall College with a Bachelor of Arts in History in 1982. Subsequently, he earned his law degree from Case Western Reserve University School of Law in 1985, cum laude. He is licensed to practice law in Maryland, the District of Columbia, and Massachusetts, as well as admitted to practice in the United States District Courts for the District of Maryland and District of Columbia. He is also admitted to practice before the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit.
Rob is honored to have received numerous industry awards and recognitions across his career, including being named “Lawyer of the Year” in Baltimore, MD by Best Lawyers® for Products Liability Litigation – Plaintiffs in 2022, for Mass Tort Litigation/Class Actions – Plaintiffs in 2017 and 2013, and for Personal Injury Litigation – Plaintiffs in 2016. He has received the honor of being name to the Best Lawyers® lists for Mass Tort Litigation/Class Actions – Plaintiffs, Personal Injury Litigation, and Product Liability Litigation every year since 2006.
He has also achieved an AV Preeminent Rating with Martindale-Hubbell, was named one of “America’s 52 Most Influential Trial Lawyers” by The National Law Journal & The Trial Lawyer Magazine, has been selected for inclusion in the Maryland Super Lawyers list every year since 2007, and won the Trial Lawyer of the Year Award from the Maryland Association for Justice.
Rob is a sought-after speaker for events across the country and is a member of the Maryland Association for Justice, American Association for Justice, Trial Lawyers Association of Washington, D.C., Maryland Bar Association, Massachusetts Academy of Trial Attorneys, Federal Bar Association, and more.
Rob cultivates a culture of giving back within his law firm. Beyond representing and serving their clients, Rob’s team maintains and contributes to the Jenner Law Donor Fund, a charitable trust that routinely makes contributions to causes of the employees’ choice, including programs addressing food insufficiency, veterans, women’s safety, and animal protection.
Outside of work, Rob is happily married with two adult children, Matthew and Nicole. He is also a Certified Master Scuba Diver with Special Certifications as a Rescue Diver, Wreck Diver, Night Diver, Peak Performance Buoyancy, Deep Diver, and Boat Diver and an amateur underwater photographer.

Tone-deaf and Unempathetic
I reached out to Robert Jenner’s firm seeking legal guidance and support after experiencing what I believe to be serious medical misconduct during childbirth, an extremely vulnerable and traumatic time. Unfortunately, my experience with this firm left me feeling dismissed and disappointed. Rather ...
Robert Jenner
Replied last July 10, 2025Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We are deeply sorry that our response left you feeling dismissed and unsupported. We strive to be direct in our guidance to ensure transparency about legal options, but in doing so here, we fell below our standards of empathy and care. After our initial communication, where I informed you that we could not be of service, you followed up with a request for more details to assist you with your efforts in finding another lawyer. Our response, therefore, was geared to do just that. Yet, while legal viability is one aspect of our assessment, communicating with compassion is equally important, and we apologize that you felt this was lacking in our response. To assist you in your search for another lawyer, as you requested, we have provided you with the benefit of our experience: personal notes are often more effective than those generated by AI. Personal emails uniformly provide a clearer sense of the unique voice, emotions, and story. This can help us better understand the human experience behind the facts, ensuring we respond with the empathy and support each individual deserves. We again apologize for the negative experience, and wish you the best moving forward.

Lacks professional ethics and lies to his clients
Robert Jenner represented me in an Essure lawsuit and it was a HORRIFIC experience. On top of all my injuries and suffering, having my own attorney blatantly lie about facts I can prove and keeping $45,250 from me because of his lies should be illegal!
Robert Jenner
Replied last June 15, 2021I’m very sorry you feel this way. Your Essure settlement, as the settlement from all our clients, is reviewed by a law school professor who specializes in mass tort settlements, ethics, and professional responsibility. Your settlement was handled according to the strictest standards of professional ethics and was processed according to the law and our contingency fee agreement with you. I’ve explained the settlement to you in writing, both by letters and emails. I’ve asked to speak with you on the phone to discuss it verbally and you have refused to speak with me. I’m not sure what else I can do to explain how a personal injury settlement works. We negotiate a settlement on behalf of a client. From that settlement amount, you must pay an attorneys’ fee, the costs of the litigation, and any health care liens you may owe. Those terms are spelled out in every contingency fee agreement we enter with our clients; your case was no exception. Rest assured we did not hold back any money from you that you were entitled to. Every person who suffers a similar injury gets the same amount of money in the Essure litigation. In other words, a person who suffers a condition that is not related to the Essure device cannot get more funds; there must be a causal relationship between the injury and the device, and there must be an expert to support such a relationship. In your case, you obtained the same amount as others in your position. Indeed, as a contingency fee law firm, we receive more when you receive more. We have every incentive to maximize your recovery. However, there must be equity to the process, and a client cannot receive more money that others in the same position. And, of course, no client is compelled to take a settlement. Any client who is unhappy with a settlement amount is certainly free to reject that settlement offer and seek other legal representation or proceed to trial. That right was available to you, as well. Again, I remain open to discussing the settlement with you, and for you to have an advisor of your choosing with you during the conversation. It’s critically important to our firm that you understand the settlement process. The online law firm reviews we have from our clients attesting to the process we use at our firm is a product of 35+ years of ethical and professional representation of injured consumers across the country. Again, we are sorry you feel the way you do and remain open to explaining the terms of the settlement with you again.

He's really knows how to fight the big drug companies -- a big consumer advocate!
I knew Rob when he was just starting out in practice, suing companies that distributed tainted blood products that gave people HIV. He had fire in his belly back then, and he's never lost it. My case involved the hormone therapy replacement drug Prempro. Rob and his team fought the big pharmaceuti...
