Robert A. Edelstein

Born and raised in downtown Chicago, Robert has lived and worked nearly his entire life in northern Illinois aside from five years spent in New Orleans, Louisiana. He is a former successful professional poker player and commercial real estate broker. Robert utilizes the skills he honed on the poker circuit to adeptly navigate the courtroom to his client’s advantage. He is an experienced litigator who is consistently focused on obtaining the best result for each one of his clients. Robert’s practice covers all areas from traffic representation to criminal defense of nearly every type of alleged misdemeanor and felony violation of the law. He is a skilled negotiator and works hard to secure favorable outcomes for his clients but does not shy away from going to trial when deemed necessary. Robert enjoys rooting for his hometown Chicago sports teams, traveling to warm destinations, playing golf, dining out with his wife and most importantly spending quality time with his family.
