Bob always introduces himself as a “family lawyer.” Since 1975 he has had offices in San Francisco and has represented families living on the West Coast and other states where the bread winner of the family or a loved one has suffered a tragic death or catastrophic injury. To Bob, “family lawyer” does not mean a lawyer who represents a husband or wife going though a divorce. Rather, a “family lawyer” is a lawyer who has the grave responsibility of regaining the family dignity that existed before the tragedy and giving the family their economic freedom.
Bob has many prized possessions he has received from his clients after the resolution of their cases. One of his most cherished possessions is a beautiful eagle sculpture which reads “Thank you for giving our family freedom.”
It has always been Bob’s dream to have a building devoted to the representation of his clients. In March 2003 The Arns Law Firm purchased the building at 515 Folsom Street. On March 1, 2004, after completing tenant improvements, The Arns Law Firm moved into this space which was designed solely for the efficient representation of families in grave need of legal help. The Arns Law Firm physical plant is set up to mock try cases to 36 persons and break up into 3 jury panels of 12 which are videotaped in three separate deliberation rooms (one of the deliberation rooms is viewable through a one way mirror).
As a trial lawyer Bob is most fulfilled by being surrounded by his incredible clients who represent the highest work ethic in our country and who make up impressive families. Further, Bob is always amazed at the commitment of the legal assistants and lawyers in his office. Every lawyer in Bob’s office has obtained numerous seven figure and eight figure verdicts and has the heart to fight relentlessly for families in need. Bob’s dream –his experiment – in forming The Arns Law Firm- is now being fulfilled beyond his expectations.
