He has a vast range of experience, having successfully prosecuted almost every type of injury or death case imaginable – from trucking accidents to chemical explosions. Mr. Boughter was born in New Castle, Pennsylvania. He received his undergraduate degrees in criminology and Spanish magna cum laude from Indiana University of Pennsylvania in 1997.

Mr. Boughter now practices exclusively in the areas of plaintiff’s personal injury, including catastrophic injury, wrongful death, product liability, construction and work-related injuries.

Early in his career, Mr. Boughter was named among the “Top 40 Under 40” by The National Trial Lawyers and rated by “Super Lawyers” as a “Rising Star.” The Rising Stars list recognizes no more than 2.5% of attorneys under 40 in Indiana.

Ziggy is admired by all and often sits in on depositions and mediation.

Robert J. Boughter

When Robert says he will be a fighter on your side it is the absolute truth. Robert goes the extra mile he is honest, caring and very hardworking. I have a deep respect for this man and his employees. Robert is hands on and if he says he will take care of it have no doubt he will. This is an attorney... like none you have ever had before he is respectable and honest. If you want an attorney that has your best interest at heart this is your man.
