Best Law Firms in Westlake, OH

Tom began his career as a staff attorney in the court system and went on to work for a large insurance defense firm. While there, he quickly realized that fighting against people who had legitimate claims was not rewarding. So in 1997, Tom joined a prestigious personal injury and medical malpractice firm, representing people with catastrophic injuries such as severe brain injuries and amputated limbs. Within six months of joining that firm, he obtained a jury verdict against a physician. Since then, he established The Robenalt Law Firm, Inc., committed to obtaining the best possible results for its clients.
