Robert Muise


Robert J. Muise (born 1965) is an American attorney who specializes in constitutional law litigation. Along with attorney David Yerushalmi, he is co-founder and Senior Counsel of the American Freedom Law Center (AFLC), a national nonprofit law firm whose stated mission is "to fight for faith and freedom by advancing and defending America’s Judeo-Christian heritage and moral foundation through litigation, education, and public policy programs." Before launching AFLC, Muise was Senior Trial Counsel at the Ann Arbor-based Thomas More Law Center, a conservative Christian law firm founded by Domino's Pizza founder Tom Monaghan.

Muise is noted for litigating the first Constitutional challenge to the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act—commonly referred to as "Obamacare". On August 10, 2011, the National Law Journal named him the Appellate Lawyer of the Week for his legal efforts in this case. Other case highlights include participating in the defense of retired LtCol Jeffrey Chessani of the Haditha killings (United States v. LtCol Jeffrey Chessani, USMC) and his successful defense of four Christian missionaries arrested in 2010 for breach of the peace while evangelizing at an Arab festival in Dearborn, Michigan (City of Dearborn v. David Wood, et al.,).

After receiving his undergraduate degree in 1987 from the College of the Holy Cross in Worcester, Massachusetts, Muise served thirteen years as an officer in the U.S. Marine Corps. He first served as an infantry officer for 9 years, during which time he participated in the Persian Gulf War.
