BILL ROBERTSON
HONOREE | PERSONAL INJURY
1925–2025 | A CENTURY OF COMMITMENT. A LEGACY OF JUSTICE.
In 2025, the Robertsons mark a major milestone in the legal community—100 years of serving Sarasota and southwest Florida. In 1925, Bill Robertson's great-grandfather and grandfather founded Robertson & Robertson, beginning a century-long tradition of legal advocacy and public service.
BILL HAS A LENGTHY AND ROBUST BACKGROUND FOCUSING on personal injury and wrongful death claims throughout Florida, with a proven track record handling auto and motorcycle accidents, bicycle and pedestrian accidents, plane crashes, trucking accidents, slip and fall incidents, propane and natural gas explosions and defective products. Over the course of his career, Bill has recovered over $250 million for his clients. Carrying forward his family’s century-old legacy of public service in Sarasota, Bill is a community-based lawyer recognized both locally and nationally for his dedication to helping national heroes and veterans. He has held an AV preeminent rating from Martindale-Hubbell magazine— the highest level of professional excellence—for 20 consecutive years. Bill has also received accolades from America’s Top High Stakes Litigators, National Lawyers of Distinction and America’s Most Honored Lawyers, Super Lawyer in Florida, Top Attorneys in Florida and Top Attorneys in Tampa Bay. Bill’s advocacy in the fight against the opioid crisis earned him national attention, including a feature by Fox News journalist Geraldo Rivera. Beginning in 2013, Bill was also instrumental in recovering tens of millions of dollars in damages for his clients throughout Florida after the Deepwater Horizon oil well explosion occurred in the northern Gulf of Mexico in April of 2010. He has hosted a local call-in radio show called Let’s Talk Law with Bill Robertson on WSRQ. A proud member of the Florida Justice Association, Bill dedicates countless hours helping people navigate the legal system on a pro bono basis. As the Robertson Law Firm enters its second century, Bill continues to uphold the values that have guided the firm since 1925—service, integrity and results.
SHARE A TESTIMONIAL
“When my son was hit by a car last year while sitting at an intersection on his bicycle, I knew we would need legal help. I felt dealing with someone who had been involved with Personal Injury law in this area for over 30 years was a better option for us than some of the big box law firms. It proved to be a good decision. Bill, his staff, and associates did a masterful job of getting my son a healthy settlement. I don’t think you could have a better representative fighting for your well being than the Robertson Law Firm, P.A.”
