Meet Robert

Bob concentrates his practice in civil litigation, with over twenty-five years of experience in Connecticut and New York. He focuses on defending high-exposure claims involving premises liability, products liability, mass torts (including asbestos), general liability, and maritime disputes. His representative experience includes defending industrial manufacturers in complex personal injury and product liability matters, as well as working closely with both fact witnesses and expert consultants to build strong, effective defenses.

Bob collaborates with clients to develop aggressive, cost-effective strategies that drive successful outcomes for both the client and carrier. Before joining the firm, he practiced at two national and one regional law firm. He is licensed to practice in New York and Connecticut. Prior to his legal career, Bob served in the U.S. Navy as a surface warfare and engineering officer, completing three overseas deployments.

When not in the office, he spends his time with his family, the family rescue dog, salt water fishing and golfing.
