Robert Padrick

Hello, I’m Bob. I became a Personal Family Lawyer because I’m passionate about helping families protect their assets to provide security for themselves today as well as for their children tomorrow.

My practice is focused on strategic planning for Family Nest-Egg Protection, pre-need Minor Child Guardianship, and, Medi-Cal Qualification. I also help local business owners make wise legal, insurance, financial and tax decisions. Whether you are married or single, a traditional family or a blended one, just starting out or looking back on a life well-lived, I can help you craft a plan that achieves your goals for years to come.

I graduated from California State University, Northridge in 1975 and San Fernando Valley College of Law in 1980. After graduation, I clerked at the U.S. Department of Justice in Washington, DC. Over the last 40+ years, I have represented both plaintiffs (predominantly) and defendants in civil (predominantly), criminal and appellate matters, and, have experience with Probate matters, including Estate Administrations and Conservatorships. I have also helped families create estate and business plans to protect and distribute their assets.

I greatly enjoy educating my community about their planning options and frequently give presentations on a wide variety of family wealth planning topics.

I am an alumnus of Order of DeMolay and Sigma Chi Fraternity, have been a Mason since 1977, and, have lived in the Bay Area since 1995. I regularly volunteer at Yosemite and, most importantly, am the proud father of a daughter, currently enrolled at Cal Poly Humboldt.
