Rob L. Woelfel is known for his passionate, pragmatic, and personalized approach to defending his clients. With nearly two decades of experience, he has earned a reputation as a strong advocate, particularly in cases involving serious charges such as murder, DUI, and sexual assault. Initially admitted to the California Bar in 2007, Rob began his legal career as a prosecutor before shifting to defense work and co-founding the civil rights firm Loughrey & Woelfel LLP. About thirteen years ago, he established the Woelfel Law Firm, where he continues to serve clients across northern California, focusing on DUI defense while handling a wide array of criminal cases. Among his notable achievements is the reversal of Ms. Susan Greenburg’s first-degree murder conviction, a victory highlighted in the documentary “Abused.” Beyond the courtroom, Rob enjoys sailing and spending time with his family, while also maintaining strong relationships with local legal professionals and agencies.
