Aaron Rocke

Aaron helps employers, especially those with licensed employees, employ, manage, and lead through sound policies and dignity in the employment relationship so employers can focus on what matters most to them: their people, impact, and profit.

He also resolves disputes arising out of the sale of a business and certain business-to-business disputes.

Mr. Rocke has served communities as a soldier, attorney, judge pro tempore, and mediator. He serves lawyers as their lawyer and faculty for continuing education seminars. He serves law students as a professor and instructor, a volunteer, and a mentor. His clients have prevailed before, after, and at trial. He has successfully advocated in courts of appeal.
