Rob is proud to be a Tar Heel, having received his law degree from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, after conducting his undergraduate studies at the University of California, Los Angeles, as a UCLA Alumni Scholar. Rob is that rare attorney who not only has legal knowledge, but also previous experience in business, banking and entrepreneurial roles. Although known as a tough negotiator and litigator for his clients, Rob's special quality is his ability to see the big picture and then draw from his background to be a Deal Maker rather than a Deal Breaker. Rob routinely fashions innovative solutions for his clients after consulting on personal, business and litigation matters. You can hear some of Rob's weekly radio tips at http://www.legaltipoftheweek.com/ Rob Maitland has successfully closed thousands of real estate transactions and welcomed countless new people to Chapel Hill and the Triangle area.

Rob has a reputation in the Triangle as a leader in the legal community and an exceptional attorney and businessman. UNC Tar Heel football fans also recognize Rob from his pre-game broadcasts as a radio sports personality.
