About Rob

Rob is a Senior Associate (Chartered Legal Executive Litigator) and Head of Property Litigation, based at our Viaduct office.

Born and raised in Cumbria, Rob began his legal career with Cartmell Shepherd as a Trainee Legal Executive, qualifying in 2007. In 2023, he rejoined the firm after spending 15 years with another local solicitors’ practice.

Rob specialises in property disputes and has particular expertise in both residential and commercial landlord and tenant disputes. In addition to his property dispute work, Rob also deals with general contractual disputes, providing straightforward, practical advice to help clients resolve issues effectively.

About Rob

Outside of work, Rob enjoys playing both Masters Rugby League and Veterans Rugby Union and has also dabbled in sprint-distance triathlon events. He enjoys attending comedy and live music gigs and plays both the bass guitar and drums, although, by his own admission, with more enthusiasm than skill.

Rob is also passionate about supporting charitable causes and is a Trustee of Oak Tree Animals’ Charity in Wetheral. He regularly helps raise money through rugby events, supporting charities including Wooden Spoon Children’s Charity, as well as a number of cancer and MND charities through Cumbria Rugby Union Veterans and Masters Rugby League events.
