He received, in 1960, a Bachelor of Arts and, in 1964, a Bachelor of Laws from the University of Toronto. He was called the Bar of Newfoundland in 1965, became Queen's Counsel in 1979 and a Master of the Supreme Court in 1989.After serving as executive assistant to Premier Joey Smallwood, Roberts entered politics and was first elected to the Newfoundland legislative assembly in 1966 in the District of White Bay North at the age of 26. He was re-elected in that district, and in the Strait of Belle Isle District, in the next five general elections. He sat as a Liberal and served as Minister of Public Welfare and then Minister of Health in Smallwood's cabinet.In 1972, he became leader of the Liberal Party and leader of the opposition when Smallwood retired following the defeat of his government.

Roberts did not seek re-election in 1985.Roberts returned to politics in 1992 at the behest of Premier Clyde Wells and became Minister of Justice and Attorney-General as well as Government House Leader, winning in the District of Nascopie (Labrador) in a by-election, and was subsequently returned in the general election of 1993.
