About Robert
Biography
My story is a love story—the love of the law. The entire process from the library to the courtroom has always held me fascinated. The dynamics, the drama, the place where the tire meets the pavement—where the rights of individuals and the dictates of government—interact. To paraphrase Johnny Cash—“I’ve done everything, man, I’ve done everything!” Judicial clerk, associate attorney, solo practice, contract defender, teacher, prosecutor, supervising attorney, published author, and mentor.
