About Robert
Biography
Robert is a certified family law specialist with 40 years of experience. He cares for his clients and works diligently to accomplish their objectives as efficiently and affordably as possible. He has excellent skills in both legal writing as well as in trial advocacy. He communicates effectively with clients, opposing counsel, and the courts. He brings a deep legal backround to the counsel table such as former prosecutor and defense attorney with extensive trial experience.
His distinquished legal career includes work in the California Supreme Court and the United States Department of Justice in Washington, D.C. Robert graduated with honors from the University of Southern California, and earned his juris doctorate degree from the reputable Loyola Law School in Los Angeles. He has received extensive media coverage in a high profile case in which his "deft" and swift action on behalf of his client affected the outcome of the case. The State Bar of California has featured him as a webinar instructor for family law attorneys and civil litigators statewide.
Robert has also been a leader in his community. A founding member of a South Orange County municipality, his extraordinary contributions were recognized by the naming of a youth athletic park in his honor.
Practice areas include complex divorce cases as well as custody and visitation, paternity cases, domestic violence proceedings, property division, and related matters.
