I know the importance of being able to explain legal concepts in plain English, and prioritize providing clear and practical counsel with the best possible outcomes. My clear communication sets me apart, breaking down complicated subject matter in a way that is easy for busy clients to understand. With experience working in-house for several local companies and an advanced law degree in taxation, I am an expert in business law, tax law, and estate planning.
Outside of work, I am a proud dad of two rambunctious girls, and I love any reason to get outside and enjoy everything the PNW has to offer.

Robert provided me legal guidance on options to start a business with the right structure. Robert listened to me carefully and shared his expert opinion with confidence and respect. Robert was flexible in time duration and was willing to go over extra minutes to finish the conversation properly.
"In addition to knowing Robert as a lawyer, I have known him as a friend for over 20 years. Robert has always been sharp, conscientious, and is a highly effective writer and advocate. In fact, in my own practice I have asked Robert to review pleadings I have written. Robert is a compassionate person who will listen to what clients need, and then work diligently and effectively to get them the best possible outcome to their case. I am pleased to endorse him."
"I endorse this lawyer. Bobby, is an incredibly bright and thorough attorney. He takes the extra time to dig through issues and create a plan that meets the needs of the client and mitigates potential risks."
