About Robert J.
Robert J. Pavich graduated from Harvard College in 1969 and earned his J.D. from DePaul College of Law in 1975. Those formative years set the stage for a long career spanning multiple state and federal courts. He entered the legal profession in the mid-1970s and has maintained a presence in both Illinois and Indiana legal communities for decades.
Early in his career Pavich became active in professional associations. He joined the American Bar Association and the Chicago and Illinois State bar associations in 1975. In 1985 he added memberships in the Illinois Trial Lawyers Association and the American Association for Justice. Later affiliations include the Indiana State Bar Association, Indiana Trial Lawyers Association, and the Serbian Bar Association of America, all of which he joined in 1999. Those memberships reflect steady participation in regional and national legal networks rather than episodic involvement.
Pavich is admitted to practice in Illinois and Indiana and holds admissions in several federal courts. His listed jurisdictions include the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, the United States District Court for the Northern and Southern Districts of Indiana, and the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Wisconsin. He is also admitted to practice before the United States Courts of Appeals for the Seventh and Fourth Circuits. This range of admissions has allowed him to handle matters that cross state lines and to appear in both trial and appellate forums.
Over the years his work has involved courtroom practice. He has engaged in litigation that required filings and appearances in multiple venues. The record of longstanding association memberships and federal admissions suggests a practice pattern grounded in courtroom advocacy and procedural work, supported by an understanding of appellate processes.
Pavich’s professional life has been anchored at Pavich Law Group, P.C., where he continues to handle client matters. The firm has served as his principal office, and he remains active in its daily practice. Colleagues and peers have known him through the bar groups and trial associations where he has maintained sustained ties.
He combines years of experience in state and federal practice with a career that traces back to a Harvard undergraduate degree and a DePaul law degree. He remains admitted in multiple jurisdictions and continues to practice at Pavich Law Group, P.C. He now concentrates on litigation and representation in the federal and state courts where he is licensed.
