Read MoreRobert Arns, the founder of Arns Davis Law, has spent a distinguished career exclusively prosecuting plaintiff civil cases, developing particular expertise in consumer class actions, mass torts, elder abuse, and representing families dealing with catastrophic injuries and death.

Bob proudly introduces himself as a "family lawyer" - not in the traditional sense of matrimonial disputes, but as an advocate who shoulders the grave responsibility of restoring family dignity following tragedy. He is committed to securing justice and economic freedom for families across the United States who have suffered serious losses.

His consumer protection work spans numerous industries, including banking, internet, defective products, and employment issues. While Bob takes his career as a plaintiff lawyer very seriously, he maintains a humble perspective about himself.

Bob's drive and work ethic were forged during his upbringing in Portland, Oregon. Raised in a loving family with limited means - his father never completed high school and his mother's education ended with high school - Bob learned the value of hard work early on. Starting with a paper route and lawn jobs, he became a bag boy at Albertson's grocery store at age 14. By 16, he had achieved journeyman status in the union as both a checker and produce department worker. During his junior year of high school, Bob was entrusted with managing night stock operations twice weekly, an experience he credits as earning his "MBA" before graduation through valuable lessons from older coworkers and supervisors.

This foundation of "hard work to survive" shaped Bob's determination and ability to achieve any goal - an experience he wouldn't trade for anything. His intellectual curiosity was influenced by his older brother Dave, who began submitting editorials to newspapers and magazines at just 12 years old. Dave's academic pursuits, culminating in a PhD in History, inspired Bob to develop a deep understanding of world affairs from an early age.

Outside the courtroom, Bob pursues diverse interests that reflect his commitment to community and family. As owner of Tournesol Winery and vineyards in Napa, he and his wife Anne cultivate Bordeaux-style wines while developing a deep appreciation for the immigrant families whose remarkable work ethic powers the operation. His entrepreneurial spirit extends to various real estate ventures, including the Arns Davis Law building in San Francisco, Baranof Wilderness Lodge in Alaska, and numerous residential and commercial properties. Bob prioritizes physical fitness through daily workouts, golf, cycling, fly fishing, and other outdoor activities. Above all, he cherishes time with family and friends, and remains dedicated to philanthropy across academic, athletic, food bank, legal aid, and other charitable endeavors.

Bob attributes his well-balanced life primarily to his wife Anne, with whom he recently celebrated 50 years of marriage. He considers his son Christopher and daughter Allison, along with their spouses and his five grandchildren, to be his best friends. Every day, Bob feels deep gratitude to the exceptional lawyers and legal assistants at Arns Davis Law who help him maintain this fulfilling balance in his professional and personal life.   Read Less
