Raised in New Jersey in a family of private investigators, Rob worked his first trademark infringement case at the age of twelve. While aspiring as a stand-up comedian in Los Angeles in the early 90s, he found employment at a premiere intellectual property investigative firm. Here, he soon found himself assigned to investigate a new breed of faceless perpetrators: Cybercriminals. Rob conducted some of the world’s first IP-related Internet investigations, and pioneered the study of the “virtual crime scene”. For over a decade, he has been operating the world’s first and leading Internet IP enforcement program. His clients are a Who’s Who list of Fortune 500 companies; many of which have been with him since the beginning. Throughout his career, Rob has been sought as an advisor to a wide range of officials and businesspeople. Rob has been featured on television, books, and newspapers; and has been well-received as a speaker on the topic of IP Cybercrime.
