Robert is a child of Cambodian parents, who escaped the Cambodian genocide to safety in the U.S. as refugees. He currently serves as Managing Attorney at the Law Offices of Johanna Herrero, practicing exclusively in immigration law.

He emphasizes the firm's provisional unlawful presence waivers, waivers of inadmissibility, adjustments of status, family-based petitions, naturalization, special immigrant juvenile status, and temporary protected status. Before the Immigration Court, Robert defends respondents seeking asylum, withholding of removal, protection under the Convention Against Torture, NACARA, LPR and Non-LPR Cancellation of Removal, and other criminal waivers.
