**Robert M. Knowles - Omaha, NE Lawyer Specializing in Medical Malpractice, Personal Injury, and Tax Law** Robert M. Knowles, a seasoned attorney based in Omaha, Nebraska, has built a distinguished career at Knowles Law Firm, where he focuses on medical malpractice, personal injury, and tax law. Raised in Omaha, Bob graduated from Creighton Prep High School in 1978 before earning his Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration magna cum laude from Creighton University in 1982, followed by his Juris Doctorate summa cum laude in 1985. Bob began his legal journey in 1983 at McGrath, North, O’Malley & Kratz, where he primarily handled corporate, tax, and securities matters under the firm’s managing partner. In 1986, he joined his father, Jim Knowles, Sr., at Knowles Law Firm, shifting his focus to personal injury cases.

With over 31 years of experience, Bob has successfully tried numerous jury cases in both federal and state courts. His extensive practice includes handling motor vehicle accident injury claims, premises liability, product liability—including a notable wrongful death claim involving a defective lift chair—and complex medical malpractice cases, such as anesthesia errors on infants and failures to diagnose melanoma.

Outside of his legal practice, Bob is actively involved in his community. He is a past president of the Touchdown Club of Nebraska and currently serves on the Board of Directors for the Nebraska Chapter of the National Football Foundation and College Hall of Fame.
