About Douglas Robbins

With twenty years of experience in over twenty court trials, arbitrations, and administrative hearings in jurisdictions all over the San Francisco Bay Area, Mr. Robbins is a veteran trial lawyer and advocate. His practice focuses on business litigation, real estate disputes, employment controversies, and entertainment law. Mr. Robbins cut his teeth serving as an intern for the United States Attorneys in San Francisco and Philadelphia. Subsequently, he practiced at one of the most prominent law firms in Silicon Valley, and then, for over a decade as a name partner for a boutique San Francisco firm specializing in complex commercial disputes and professional liability.

Mr. Robbins deploys the end-game strategy, oriented toward strengthening his client’s penultimate position by predicting and then leveraging future litigation outcomes. Once properly positioned, the lawsuit can either be tried to court or resolved in a settlement with maximal results. And contrary to certain conventional wisdom, Mr. Robbins is of the opinion that successful outcomes in the practice of law are often enhanced, not undermined, by adherence to the State Bar’s rules of professional civility.
