WHAT CLIENTS SAY

"Rob brings remarkable business knowledge to the table."
"He knows what we need to know."


MY CLIENT PHILOSOPHY

"When I was a summer associate, I asked an associate why a corporate partner was successful.† She said, He never tells clients they can't do what they want to do.† That stuck with me.† And it doesn't mean ignoring legal problems, but rather finding a way, regardless of the circumstances, to get to Äòyes.'"

– Robert E. Burwell
