Robert Tobin

Trial Practice, Litigation

Criminal Defense

Bob Tobin knows that good people from good families can get caught up in the criminal justice system. He gives every client a zealous defense, sparing no effort in trying to prevent the state from meeting its burden of proving the accused’s guilt. Bob has won countless cases without ever going to trial, by arguing successful pretrial motions to dismiss and/or suppressing damaging evidence. He has won many trials over the last four decades by convincing juries and judges to acquit his clients. Bob relies on his vast experience to recognize potential risks that may require some clients’ cases be resolved short of trial by negotiating with the prosecution and the Court to reach an acceptable resolution. His well-earned excellent reputation with prosecutors and judges serves his clients well in these negotiations.

Personal Injury / Civil Litigation

Attorney Tobin has been fighting for justice for people whose lives are upended, many times through no fault of their own, because of car accidents, unsafe conditions on premises and unsafe products. He has been championing his injured clients’ causes for decades, seeking and obtaining just compensation for losses such as medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering and disruption to their lives. Bob knows how to deal with insurance companies to present his clients’ causes in the best light possible, and to litigate cases to trial when necessary to obtain full justice for his clients’ losses. Bob is a long-time member of the Massachusetts Academy of Trial Attorneys, an organization dedicated to furthering the cause of persons who are injured by the negligence of others. He is well versed in how to prove his clients’ cases by using all the available tools available in the civil discovery process and in presenting compelling medical evidence to insurance companies, judges and juries.
