“No matter how many clients I have, I make sure to call each one personally every quarter. It’s a chance to not only update them on their portfolio, but also check on how they’re doing personally”
Kelvin Rampersad,
Carte Wealth Management
With his unmatched expertise and dedicated leadership, Robert Blasio has built an accomplished career on his passion for the work, his clients, and his team.
Rob earned his Bachelor of Arts in Government from Lawrence University in 1981 and his Juris Doctor from the George Washington University Law School in 1984. He relentlessly pursued a career as a litigation attorney and, after eight years in private practice, joined Galtney Corporate Services as vice president of legal. In this role, he worked as general counsel to a privately owned insurance holding company specializing in healthcare professional liability.
Seeing the insurance market’s need for a more complete, value-based healthcare professional and medical malpractice claims management firm, Rob co-founded Western Litigation Inc. (WLI) and served as president and CEO from its inception.
In 2001, Gallagher acquired WLI, which subsequently became a division of Gallagher Bassett and was rebranded in 2019 to what is now known as GB Specialty, which Rob leads as managing director. He oversees the division’s operations, which has expanded to focus on industries with high severity and complex risks and liability claims, including healthcare; executive and professional liability; product liability and life sciences; transportation; cyber; and construction.
Rob is a licensed attorney in Illinois and Texas and holds adjuster licenses in approximately 25 states.
