He graduated from the University of Montana School of Law, with honors, in 2011, where he also obtained a certificate in Natural Resources and Environmental Law. Rob also interned for the Clark Fork Coalition. He competed on UM Law’s National Moot Court Team with colleague Scott Peterson, and their team won both first place brief and first place overall for the Northwest Region. Rob individually won best oral advocate. After graduating, he returned to Helena and served as a law clerk to Justice Michael Wheat of the Montana Supreme Court, worked for Montana Legal Services Association to help Montanans and joined Morrison, Sherwood, Wilson & Deola in 2013.
Since entering private practice, Rob focused on protecting Montana consumers and Montanans constitutional rights. His consumer practice involves consumer bankruptcies, mortgage and foreclosure issues, improper credit reporting, illegal debt collection and automobile fraud. His civil rights work is dedicated to protecting Montanans from violations of their State and Federal constitutional rights.
Since joining the firm, Rob also started his political career. In 2015, he was elected to the Helena City Commission, where he found a way to fund Helena’s infrastructure needs by fairly charging those entities that use them the most. Three years later, in 2018, Rob was elected to Represent House District 79 in the Montana House of Representatives. In his first term, he co-sponsored the Medicaid Expansion bill, fought to protect Montana survivors of sexual abuse, and joined a bipartisan effort to fund Montana state parks, trails, and aquatic invasive species prevention.
