Why This Firm?
Robins Kaplan is unusual: a big firm built around trying cases. Most BigLaw firms hand contingent or plaintiff work to boutiques. Robins Kaplan does it themselves and has for decades. That gives them depth on the plaintiff side — patent infringement, antitrust, class actions, medical malpractice — that very few national firms can match.
If you're a company being sued, the firm also has a strong defense practice. If you're a hospital, an insurance carrier, or a Fortune 500 enterprise, you'll meet the defense lawyers. If you're a smaller company or an individual with a major commercial dispute, you'll meet the plaintiff lawyers. Either way, this is a firm that actually picks juries.

What Clients Say
“Mid-size tech company suing a Fortune 100 over patent infringement. Robins Kaplan took it on a partial contingency, took it to trial, and we won eight figures plus an injunction. Worth every dollar of the engagement.”
“Class representative in a national price-fixing case. Robins Kaplan led the plaintiff steering committee, beat motion to dismiss, certified the class, and settled for nine figures pre-trial. Professional from day one.”
“Birth injury case — cerebral palsy — that two other plaintiff firms declined. Robins Kaplan took it, hired the right experts, and we settled for an amount that will care for my son for the rest of his life.”
