Bob Baum has been a practicing attorney for over 24 years. He focuses
on resolving family and civil disputes in the most effective, least confrontational
way possible. Representative clients have included families of every typestraight,
gay, with and without children, and of numerous nationalities and religions.
Business clients have included the Washington Post Co, World Wrestling Federation

Bob brings a business law background to family law matters
(as well as his own experiences as a father and divorcee), and experience with
the human side of the law to business cases. In recognition of his ability to
resolve difficult disputes, President Clinton appointed him as chief judge and
dispute resolution specialist for the U.S Department of the Interior (where
he established the Departments dispute resolution/mediation program),
Gov. Glendening chose him to chair Marylands medical privacy council (composed
of 29 diverse and potentially contentious members), and the Maryland Court of
Appeals dispute resolution office designated him as one of only 24 facilitators
in the State to help resolve difficult public policy issues.
Bob received his B.A. from Dartmouth College with High Honors
and his J.D. from Washington University (St. Louis), ranked one of the top 20
law schools in the country. He is admitted to the Bars of Maryland, District
of Columbia and California. He has lectured on dispute resolution throughout
the country, including at Yale University and before the American Bar Association
(ABA). He also teaches family law for the Montgomery County Womens Commission
and MCPS Adult Education program. Bob is the chair of the Alternative Dispute
Resolution Section of the Montgomery County Bar Association, and is treasurer
and an executive board member of Collaborative Dispute Resolution Professionals,
Inc. He is a member of the ABA (litigation, dispute resolution and family law
sections,) Maryland State Bar Association (dispute resolution and family law
sections,) and the Association for Conflict Resolution.
