Andrew C. Robb

Practice Areas: Aviation/personal injury
Law School: University of Michigan

Law is a family affair for Andrew Robb. Robb says he loves bouncing around ideas with his wife during their evening walks and discussing case strategy with her and his parents over dinner.

He says, “Being able to work on behalf of such deserving clients alongside my family is a wonderful gift that I will never take for granted. Some of my favorite moments as a lawyer occur during depositions or hearings when I get to — with great relief — pass the baton to my wife.”

One of the most surprising aspects of the legal profession for Robb was realizing that there are many different ways to practice law.

“Law school does not expose students to the majority of practice areas,” he says. “I advise young lawyers to try to gain exposure to different types of law before deciding which path is best for them.”

While in law school, he was a notes editor on the Michigan Law Review and won first place in the 91st Annual Campbell Moot Court Competition. After law school, he clerked for Judge Duane Benton on the 8^th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, and for Judge Greg Kays on the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Missouri.
