Robert Dean Vossler

Robb, The Professional

I joined the firm as an associate in December 2020. I have practiced in the area of family and matrimonial litigation since my admission to the Connecticut Bar in 2018.

I am a 2013 graduate of Merrimack College in North Andover, Massachusetts, where I triple-majored in Economics, Political Science and Spanish. In 2017, I graduated, with honors, from the University of Connecticut School of Law. During law school I was the recipient of the Dean’s Scholarship and two CALI Excellence for the Future awards. I was also recognized by the law school as a Pro Bono Honoree (100+ hours, not including for-credit clinics or field placement). I was an Associate Editor of the Connecticut Insurance Law Journal from 2015 to 2016 and an Executive Editor from 2016 to 2017. I was also a Writer and Editor for Hot News, a monthly publication produced by the Environmental Transactions and Brownfields Committee of the National Bar Association. I served as a teaching assistant in Legal Profession, the writing and research course for first-year law students, and Moot Court, the oral advocacy and brief writing course for first-year law students.

In addition to my coursework, I participated in a wide array of clinics and internships. Such experience includes: Interning for the Honorable Alfred V. Covello, United States District Court for the District of Connecticut; externing in the litigation department of a Fortune 500 company; and participating in a major Connecticut law firm’s summer associate program. As a student in the Mediation Clinic, I co-mediated four employment discrimination cases then-pending before the Connecticut Commission on Human Rights and Opportunities. As a student representative in the Asylum and Human Rights Clinic, I co-represented a Central American woman in removal proceedings in Immigration Court, obtaining her asylum, as well as prepared an Application for Asylum and for Withholding of Removal for a South American family seeking political asylum. During spring break of my final year, I participated in the Immigration Detention Service Project trip to York, Pennsylvania, assisted detained asylum seekers, and subsequently prepared a brief in support of a Central American woman’s asylum claim that was instrumental in her obtaining local counsel and release from detention on bond.

I am admitted to practice law in the state of Connecticut. Following my graduation from the University of Connecticut School of Law, I served as a judicial law clerk at the Connecticut Appellate Court to the Honorable Socrates H. Mihalakos, William J. Sullivan, Joseph H. Pellegrino, and Dennis G. Eveleigh, Judge Trial Referees. I entered private practice at a boutique family and matrimonial law firm in Old Greenwich, Connecticut, where I represented clients in a variety of dissolution and post-judgment matters.
