Ohio Civil Litigation Specialist

Business Law, Healthcare Law, Employment Law, Criminal Defense

I am Robert P. DeMarco, a trial attorney with offices in Solon, Ohio. In my 38 years of practice, I have represented a wide range of clients in matters spanning virtually the entire spectrum of the law. More recently, I have focused my practice in the area of business law and litigation. My clients have included independent healthcare insurance brokers, as well as CEOs, officers, and directors of healthcare organizations and providers, both as plaintiffs and defendants. I have conducted seminars on healthcare law for the Ohio State Bar Association's Continuing Legal Education Program, and have been a guest speaker on such topics as the Ohio Rules of Evidence, alternative dispute resolution, and use of mock trials as a litigation tool.

I sharpened my trial skills as a former assistant county prosecutor in Cuyahoga County (Cleveland) and as a municipal prosecutor and law director for the City of South Euclid, Ohio. I was appointed special prosecutor in a criminal proceeding against a former mayor of Cleveland, Ohio, and acted as special counsel to the attorney general of the State of Ohio. I am one of only 139 Ohio attorneys to have earned a certification as Civil Trial Specialist from the National Board of Trial Advocacy in Wrentham, Massachusetts.

A Tradition of Excellence

I belong to a family of distinguished attorneys. My father, Attorney Victor E. DeMarco, was formerly chief trial counsel for the firm of Jones, Day, Reavis and Pogue in Cleveland. A nephew, Attorney Victor J. DeMarco, Jr., is senior manager of international tax practice with Ernst and Young in New York City.

Thorough preparation has always been the hallmark of my career. My guiding principle is “when you are prepared for trial, good settlements happen.” Clients appreciate my friendly approachable style. My uncompromising professionalism has gained me the respect of the bench and bar. Those qualities combine to produce positive results for clients. Known for a personal touch, I work with clients from the initial conference to establish a “game plan” and attainable goals which remain my uppermost concern throughout the process.
