Rob did not start his career as a lawyer but instead after obtaining an English Literature degree worked as a self employed session drummer for five years. He then decided to have a change of direction and qualified as a solicitor in 2002.
Rob first worked for a niche solicitors practice, Kyriakides and Braier, in the West End of London which particularly dealt with the entertainment industry. He joined Raworths in 2002 to join our Commercial Litigation Unit, where he specialises in commercial litigation, family asset and inheritance disputes, insolvency and intellectual property.
