Steven P. Robinson

Since joining Diamond & Robinson in 1988, Steve Robinson has made a real difference in the lives of countless Vermonters with his focus on Workers’ Compensation cases and Personal Injury law. His compassion and dedication to his clients, combined with an extensive knowledge of the complex legal system, have been instrumental in securing the best possible outcomes for his clients. Steve has been protecting the rights of injured workers for more than 20 years. In that time, he has recovered millions of dollars in Workers’ Compensation benefits for honest, hard-working Vermonters, often arguing in front of the Vermont Department of Labor on behalf of his clients. His experience with Workers’ Compensation awards as they relate to Social Security and Medicare benefits has been particularly advantageous for those nearing retirement age.
