Prior to that Robin served as an Assistant Attorney General for the State of Georgia where she investigated and prosecuted complex multi-million dollar federal and state cases involving health care fraud and abuse. Of note, she prosecuted United States v. Otis Shannon, et al. which was highlighted by the Attorney General of the United States in her press conference announcing a national healthcare fraud take-down.

Robin began her legal career serving as a prosecutor for the State’s Attorney’s Office for Baltimore City and the Fulton County District Attorney’s Office. Due to her rapidly developing trial skills, she was promoted into a felony jury trial division after only fourteen months of practicing law. As a law clerk, she was selected by the State’s Attorney for Baltimore City as the sole law clerk for the Special Prosecutor for Baltimore City, the Chief of Circuit Court Operations, and the Division Chief of the Research and Training Division. In that position, she assisted the Special Prosecutor with preparing high profile cases for prosecution and collaborated in the development of the “District Court Training Manual” and “Boot Camp Orientation Training” for new attorneys.
