Robert Baker, a principal with Neuberger, Quinn, Gielen, Rubin & Gibber, P.A., represents clients in business and general litigation, including contractual disputes, complex commercial litigation, real estate litigation, secured financing disputes, consumer protection and employment class action defense, partnership disputes, fraud, and business torts.  His experience spans from pre-litigation negotiation to trial and appellate practice and he has litigated in federal, state, and arbitration forums.

Robert has tried or secured summary judgment in dozens of cases. His representative achievements include securing summary judgment in LLC member disputes, defeating a secured creditor’s motion for receivership of distressed collateral, procuring the release of deposits in commercial real estate PSA disputes, and obtaining the dismissal of a TCPA putative class action.  Robert’s efforts as substitute counsel contributed to obtaining a stay of enforcement of a judgment, despite five prior denials in both trial and appellate courts.  Robert’s contributions to a petition for judicial review of a professional license revocation instigated a favorable settlement, despite a prior adjudication ordering permanent revocation.

Nickerson of the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland.  Upon graduation, Robert received the Paul Cordish Writing Award for his scholarship in insurance law.  He completed his undergraduate studies at McDaniel College.
