About Robin
Robin Gouveia built a legal career that blends courtroom work and firm management. She earned her Bachelor of Science from the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth in 1989 and later completed a Juris Doctor at New England Law | Boston in 1998. Those credentials anchored a steady progression through private practice and bar leadership roles.
Gouveia began her legal practice as an associate at d Oliveira & Morgan in 1998. Over time she moved into firm leadership and in 2011 became the managing lawyer at d Oliveira & Associates. In that role she has overseen case work, mentored younger attorneys and handled the administrative duties that come with running a multi-office practice.
She is admitted to practice in both Massachusetts and Rhode Island. Gouveia has been a member of the Massachusetts bar since 1998 and joined the Rhode Island bar in 2012. Her listed bar identifiers include 641895 for Massachusetts and 8712 for Rhode Island. Beyond bar membership, she serves on the Board of Governors of the Rhode Island Association for Justice and holds memberships in the Rhode Island State Bar and the Massachusetts Academy of Trial Lawyers.
Her professional affiliations suggest substantial trial experience. Colleagues and clients have noted her courtroom presence and her involvement in plaintiff-oriented trial organizations. That background informs the day-to-day work at the firm, where litigation strategy, case preparation and courtroom advocacy occupy much of the docket.
Gouveia practices from multiple offices across southeastern Massachusetts and Rhode Island, including locations in New Bedford, Fall River, Pawtucket, East Providence and Middletown. Managing a presence in several cities allows the firm to handle matters that require local attention and frequent court appearances in both states.
Over the years she has balanced case work with the operational responsibilities of running a law office. She continues to try cases and supervise litigation while participating in bar and trial lawyer organizations. Today she maintains an active license in both states and concentrates her practice on civil litigation and trial matters.
