Ty Robare

Overview

Ty Robare is a commercial litigation attorney at Jimerson Birr, where he represents businesses, lenders, and individuals in high-stakes disputes throughout Florida’s state and federal courts. His practice spans general commercial litigation, banking and financial services, creditors’ rights and judgment collection, consumer class action defense, construction and real estate litigation, business and ownership disputes, and eminent domain.

Mr. Robare joined Jimerson Birr as an associate in 2023, after spending the prior summer with the firm. Since then, he has built a litigation practice grounded in thorough preparation and a practical, business-minded approach to resolving disputes. He has defended companies against putative class actions under Florida’s telemarketing and consumer-protection statutes and in data-privacy and data-breach litigation. He has taken creditors’ rights and commercial-collection actions through judgment and post-judgment enforcement, represented owners, builders, and buyers in construction and real estate disputes, and secured compensation for property owners in eminent domain proceedings. He also counsels closely held companies and their owners through partnership disputes, ownership separations, and executive transitions. In every engagement, he works to give clients a clear read on their risk and a realistic path to the outcome they need.

Mr. Robare earned his Juris Doctor, cum laude, from the University of Florida Levin College of Law in 2023. He is a “Triple Gator,” having also earned a Master’s in International Business from the Hough Graduate School of Business and a Bachelor of Arts in Business Administration from the Warrington College of Business, each from the University of Florida. In law school, he was a founding member and Student Works Editor of the Florida Entertainment and Sports Law Review and held leadership roles in the Entertainment and Sports Law Society and the Student Bar Association.

Before law school, Mr. Robare’s interest in advocacy and leadership took shape through a series of formative experiences. He served as a regional director for his national fraternity’s headquarters, training and advising chapters across the country, and taught middle-school mathematics in Brooklyn, New York. Those experiences drew him toward a career in advocacy and client service.

A native of Sanford, Florida, Mr. Robare moved to Jacksonville following law school and lives there with his wife. Outside the office, they enjoy exploring the city’s restaurant scene, antiquing, and spending time at the beach with their Goldendoodle. He is also an avid traveler for live music, a film enthusiast, and a podcaster.
