DEEP ROOTS IN THE PANHANDLE

Bob Sombathy has lived in Bay County Florida for over 42 years.  His father was the Plant Manager at Arizona Chemical Company, and his mom worked at Bay Art and Frame in St. Andrews.  Bob graduated Mowat Middle School and Mosley High School in Lynn Haven Florida. Before going off to college and law school, Bob worked various jobs all over Bay County from fast food service to cleaning the inside of train tank cars.

Bob Sombathy met his future wife while attending law school in Birmingham.  As luck would have it, she was also from Bay County, graduated from Mosley High School, and even attended the same church.  Bob and Julie Sombathy have been married for 28 years and both their children also graduated Mosley High School.

In 2007 Bob and Julie purchased the building at 434 Magnolia Avenue in Panama City and today they proudly offer their legal advice and experience as The Sombathy Law Firm.
