About Richard

Richard Rohde is a California lawyer whose career has been shaped by steady training and steady practice. He studied engineering and science before turning to law. That technical background informs how he approaches casework and evidence. He brings a methodical style to his legal work.

Rohde earned a Bachelor of Science from California State Polytechnic University, Pomona in 1994. He then attended Southwestern University School of Law and received his J.D. in 2000. His academic path took him from a technical undergraduate program into law school, a combination that several colleagues say helps him explain complex details clearly.

After law school, Rohde began practicing in California. He worked in private practice and developed a caseload centered on civil matters and consumer disputes. Over the years he built a practice that handles contested claims and negotiates settlements for individuals. He has handled matters that require attention to both statutory text and practical consequences for clients.

Rohde's professional affiliations reflect his casework. He holds memberships in Consumer Lawyers of California and CAALA, the Consumer Attorneys Association of Los Angeles. These organizations connect him with peers who litigate and try cases on behalf of consumers. He also maintains other professional relationships that keep him current on legal developments in California.

Rohde operates under the name Rohde Law Office, APC. He maintains office locations under that firm name. The practice manages filings, client consultations, and litigation tasks from those offices. Colleagues describe the firm as focused on practical problem solving rather than promotional rhetoric.

Clients and peers say Rohde is deliberate in preparing cases. He tends to emphasize documentation and clear chronology when presenting claims. That approach can shorten discovery disputes and clarify settlement positions. He also spends time explaining procedural steps so clients know what to expect during litigation.

Outside the office he continues professional education through the organizations he belongs to. He follows changes in California law and court rules closely. Today he practices from Rohde Law Office, APC and regularly handles civil litigation and consumer law matters.
