ABOUT

Robb Stokar

Robb graduated from Cornell University's School of Industrial and Labor Relations. He was one of eleven students in his law school class at The Ohio State University Moritz College of Law to earn a certificate in Alternative Dispute Resolution. Robb began his legal career in Chicago practicing in the areas of Workers’ Compensation and Employment law. After moving to Cincinnati with his wife to start a family, Robb first worked for a multi-state civil litigation firm. In 2016, he joined a firm in Hyde Park as an associate, and was made an equity partner in 2019.  In August 2022, he founded Stokar Law to bring the highest level of legal representation to his clients.

Robb's practice includes personal injury cases, class and collective actions, wage and hour litigation, sexual harassment, and pregnancy discrimination cases.  Robb has experience in both state and federal court, and in front of various administrative agencies, including the NLRB and EEOC.  In December 2023, Robb argued a case before the Supreme Court of Ohio addressing a question of law that had remained largely unchanged since 1960.  Robb's experience also includes jury and bench trials in state and federal court, as well as final and binding arbitration. 

Outside work, Robb enjoys watching and coaching his 3 children in their various activities, playing golf, and rooting for the Ohio State Buckeyes and Chicago Blackhawks.
