Welcome and thank you for visiting our site. Bob Rima represents businesses in the area of energy law and policy. Bob also provides estate planning services to individuals.
It is Bob’s knowledge and experience that helps our clients develop well-honed business plans with clear objectives, meet their goals and achieve the result our clients deserve. Bob is a strong and effective advocate in electric and natural gas matters. Recognizing some of the key concerns identified by many clients requiring legal services, Bob keeps clients informed and he answers phone calls promptly.
Bob has received an “AV” rating in Martindale-Hubbell’s law directory, their highest rating for ethics and competency. He has designed his practice using a model employed by some of the best consulting firms in the world. He has built a relationship with several other very skilled and knowledgeable Austin attorneys -- most with an energy background -- such that on short notice Bob can assemble a legal team with the specific skill set needed to address almost any size case or issue. The key advantage of this approach is that the firm’s overhead is kept at a low reasonable level -- an important consideration for many of our long-term clients.
The firm’s energy clients include generators, a small power producer, an electric utility, retail electric providers, energy service companies, large and small municipalities, trade associations and landowners.
In the area of wealth transmission, Bob assists clients with simple or complex wills specifically designed to achieve our client’s desired property distribution while minimizing the costs incurred by the estate; estate planning which may include asset protection elements or simply the creation of trusts to benefit a minor or incapacitated person or a person incapable of managing their own financial affairs; and, probate services which involve proving up wills in court.
The firm hopes you will benefit from the information provided on this site. We would enjoy the opportunity to be of service. If you think we might be able to help you, please do not hesitate to call or email us. Bob does not charge for initial conferences.
