Robert H. Zalk
1944-2009

Dispute Resolution Services pays tribute to Bob Zalk, who provided mediation, evaluation and CSM services through Dispute Resolution Services for several years prior to his final illness.

Bob graduated from Carleton College in 1966 and the University of Minnesota Law School in 1969. He practiced family law for many years prior to his “retirement.” Attorneys who had cases with Bob found him to be consistently pleasant, kind, honest, and a very worthy opponent.

In his practice, Bob frequently used various forms of alternative dispute resolution for his clients. Following his temporary retirement, Bob decided to become an ADR provider and honored DRS by choosing to work with our organization. Although his tenure was short, his knowledge of the law and his personal skills made him a premier provider.

Bob is greatly missed in our office and in the Family Law community. We offer our sympathy to his daughters, Amy and Jenna, and to his family, former associates, and many friends.
