After graduation, Aronberg spent three years gaining legal experience by working in corporate litigation. After that three-year period, Aronberg decided to enter the public service, so he took a leave of absence to work for Bill Nelson, who was then serving as Florida’s insurance commissioner.
Former Commissioner Nelson and Aronberg worked hand in hand to investigate European insurance companies that refused to honor World War II era policies sold to victims of the Holocaust. Nelson lauded Aronberg's work and contribution to the cases, saying that they Aronberg had helped to bust "the largest consumer fraud case in the world."
Aronberg worked as an assistant Attorney General on two separate occasions. After completing his first year of work during 1999-2000, he participated in a year-long White House Fellowship.
