ROBERT A. STEIN
Bob Stein has been thinking about trial advocacy since his admission to the bar in 1971, when "right out of the box" and with no formal training, he represented indigent criminal defendants in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, specializing in defending alleged bank robbers. His first formal advocacy training came in 1973 when he attended the second session of the National Institute for Trial Advocacy. In 1976, he began teaching trial advocacy as an adjunct professor at the Franklin Pierce Law Center. In 1983, he was asked to teach at the Northeast Regional Session of the National Institute for Trial Advocacy in New York. The next year he was asked to be a Team Leader at the Northeast Regional––a position he continues to hold.
Bob has also served as a Team Leader at NITA's Southeast Regional Program in North Carolina, the Master Advocates Programs in New York and Boulder, Colorado, and NITA'S National Session in Boulder, Colorado.
Bob has taught and lectured at Hofstra, Harvard, Widener, Cardozo and Emory law schools and has presented advocacy seminars to many law firms and legal organizations. His practice includes both civil and criminal litigation, with representation in state and federal courts, including the appellate level. He has argued appeals before the First and Third Circuit Courts of Appeals, the Pennsylvania Superior Court, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court, and the New Hampshire Supreme Court. Further, Bob spent a year in The Hague, Netherlands, where he participated in the defense of an individual brought before the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia.
Bob graduated magna cum laude from Washington & Jefferson College, and from the University of Michigan Law School. He is listed in Who's Who in American Lawyers. Bob has also been listed for over ten years in multiple categories in Best Lawyers in America.
Bob is a Fellow of the American Board of Trial Advocates and the International Society of Barristers (ISOB). He served on the ISOB Board of Governors from 1999 to 2005. He currently serves on the ISOB Foundation Board of Governors.
