Biography

As Of Counsel at Martin Clearwater & Bell LLP, Robert Betz brings over four decades of legal expertise to the Firm. During his career, he has successfully defended hospitals and physicians against diverse and complex medical malpractice, professional liability and general liability claims.

Robert’s deep interest in medicine and his strong relationships with health care professionals enhance his ability to provide effective representation. He finds the intricacies of medical science fascinating and enjoys the opportunity to learn from the doctors and nurses he works with. He has been affiliated with numerous prestigious firms in the New York area, developing along the way an outstanding reputation as a skilled and dogged litigator and health care provider advocate.

Beyond health care law, Robert also has extensive experience in automobile liability, labor law, and real estate law. This broad knowledge base makes him a well-rounded attorney who is able to think creatively and optimize defense strategies for his clients. While he has a proven track record in court, Robert is equally effective in getting malpractice cases dismissed through the use of dispositive motions - thereby avoiding litigation in the first place.

Robert finds great satisfaction in guiding the next generation of lawyers. He takes particular pride in sharing his expertise on the complex and challenging field of medical malpractice defense.
