Ruppenthal Law Firm is a private practice that accepts cases throughout the state of Georgia. We are located in beautiful Fayetteville, Georgia where Bob has maintained his practice since becoming an attorney in 1994.

Bob Ruppenthal has represented over one thousand clients in his years as an attorney. He vigorously represents his clients and has had great success in litigated matters over the years. He takes pride in providing high quality legal services while taking the time to understand the needs of his clients and maintaining good communication and counsel.

In 2000, Bob was privileged to receive the trust of the Fayette County voters by being elected as Magistrate Judge. He was then re-elected in 2004 and again in 2008. This work as judge is an opportunity to serve our fellow citizens and provides a good and unique perspective in his legal work.

Also in 2000, Bob was appointed as the County Administrator/Conservator by the Fayette County Probate Court. He was privileged to be re-appointed in 2004 and again in 2008 by the newly elected Probate Judge. Due to this position, Bob is appointed various cases by the Fayette Probate Court to serve as the Administrator for various estates or the Conservator for various incapacitated adults and minors. This service has increased Bob's depth of knowledge and improved his abilities to represent clients who are seeking to probate an estate, file the court required reports, establish a guardianship and/or conservatorship for a family member themselves, or make special requests of the court in managing an estate or conservatorship.

I was honored to be elected as Magistrate Court Judge for Fayette County in 2000 for a four year term. I was re-elected to this same position in 2004 and 2008. It has been a privilege to serve the citizens of Fayette County in this position. I do my best to serve with integrity and fairness while applying the law to the cases that come before me. I strive to treat every citizen with respect and to provide proper, effective, and efficient application of the law.
