About Thomas

5
Practice areas
  1. Medical malpractice
    25%
    Medical malpractice can occur due to the negligence of licensed healthcare providers. These types of personal injury cases are generally judged by the standard of care in which another healthcare professional would have acted in a similar situation.

  2. Personal injury
    25%
    I understand how insurance companies operate. In fact, I used to work for insurers before deciding that helping victims recover was simply more important. Rest assured that insurance companies have teams of lawyers; you deserve someone on your side.

  3. Wrongful death
    25%
    Personal injuries that result in severe trauma, permanent disabilities or wrongful death are never anticipated. Yet, they occur every day due to medical malpractice, dangerous and defective products, negligent drivers and a host of others.

  4. Car accident
    20%
    Regardless of how an auto accident occurs, rest assured that the insurance company involved will have a team of attorneys representing its best interests - paying you as little as possible. Call me today and get someone who will fight for you.

  5. Birth injury
    5%

WITH OVER 23 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE IN THE FIELD OF LITIGATION, I KNOW HOW TO FIGHT FOR YOUR RIGHTS.

I have been practicing law for more than 23 years, and from day one, my focus has been to become the best trial lawyer I could be in order to give my clients the best opportunity for success.  I started as a staff attorney in State Court and moved on to become an associate at a well-established insurance defense firm that had 80 lawyers.



 

In 1997, I decided to take a position where I could help people who had been injured and/or whose lives had been destroyed by the negligence of others.  For nearly 18 years, this has been my focus – helping people in need.
 
 Experience supports my belief that to effectively fight an insurance company and/or big corporation, you need a lawyer who won't back down, is aggressive, and will take your case to trial. Most importantly, you need a lawyer whose sole mission is to provide you with a one-to-one relationship in order to focus on your individual circumstances

Thomas D Robenalt
I have known many lawyers in my life that being said I have never met a lawyer like Mr. Robenalt. He is kind, trustworthy, friendly and very willing to listen to any questions you might have. He is always willing to call you back and inform you of the progress of your case. He will sit with you and answers questions and you never feel like you are bothering him. He goes above and beyond what you think a lawyer will do even taking the time to really understand the complexities of difficult situations. He thinks outside the box and looks for ways to make things work for your advantage. I can not say enough kind words about him. I would hire him again in a minute, He is a man of his word.

An amazing attorney
Tom Robenalt is there to help you. He will listen to your concerns and start helping out right away. He helped my family settle an insurance dispute successfully! I have also referred many family and friends that Tom has helped out and have been very happy with his service. Don't hesitate to call Tom!

Exceptional
Tom took an insurance claim case based in NY during a time when major insurance companies and banks, as a whole, were in turmoil (2008). The case was based on contingency. Where other attorneys did not want to take on this challenge, Tom agreed to represent myself and my three partners. Tom is very knowledgeable, thorough and aggressive and produced a great result. We are very happy with our experience and would highly recommend Tom.
