Donald A. Robinson, one of the most prominent, respected and admired attorneys in New Jersey, leading principal in law firms bearing his name, passed away Saturday, August 3, at his home in Locust. Ron Riccio, Dean Emeritus of Seton Hall Law School, who was one of Robinson’s partners in his first law firm, remembered Robinson in these words:

“Don was one of the great lawyers in the history of New Jersey. Whether as a fearless advocate for his clients, a mentor of young lawyers, a generous benefactor to disadvantaged kids growing up in inner cities, a believer in the importance of balancing family life and work, or as a creator of programs and institutions that have survived the test of time, Don was a success. He has left an indelible mark for the better on the many lives he touched.”
