Robert is a child of Cambodian parents, who escaped the Cambodian genocide to safety in the U.S. as refugees. He currently serves as Managing Attorney at the Law Offices of Johanna Herrero, practicing exclusively in immigration law.

Before the Immigration Court, Robert defends respondents seeking asylum, withholding of removal, protection under the Convention Against Torture, NACARA, LPR and Non-LPR Cancellation of Removal, and other criminal waivers. He frequently assists respondents in motions to reopen, and practices at the Board of Immigration Appeals and with the First Circuit Court of Appeals for those seeking higher appellate review. Robert contributes to the legal field by actively publishing in the area of immigration law and policy.. Because of his immigrant background, Robert enjoys getting to know his clients and understanding their stories and narratives. He states, "every immigrant has a story of how they arrived in the U.S., and why, whether it was for humanitarian reasons, for family reunification, for employment, or for even their studies and pursuit of education. Immigration law intersects with so many diverse sectors, and intersects with people of diverse backgrounds. I enjoy what I do because I assist my clients in achieving what many of us hope for - the American Dream and the opporunity to reside in one of the best places to live.". Robert came to the Law Office of Johanna Herrero with a wealth of experience in the immigration law sector. While earning his J.D. at Northeastern University School of Law, he served as Senior Staff of the Northeastern University Law Journal, and as a Teaching and Research Assistant to his professors. He served as legal intern for the U.S. Attorney's Office in the healthcare fraud unit, served as judicial intern for Judge Selya of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the First Circuit, as legal intern at the Boston University Civil Litigation Program on Asylum and Human Rights, and ultimately as a law clerk at a preeminent global business immigration law firm, assisting corporate professionals and executives in global transfers..
