Štrbac was born in Raštević, near Benkovac, PR Croatia, which was part of Yugoslavia at the time. He earned a degree in law from the University of Zagreb.[3]
From 1977 to 1990, he worked as a judge of the Municipal Court in Benkovac and of the District Court in Zadar. During the Breakup of Yugoslavia, he was involved in the work of the RSK Commission for Prisoner Exchanges, at first as a Commission member and from 1993 as its chairman. The same year, he also became Secretary of the RSK.[4]
Since 1994, he worked with the now-former chief prosecutor at the ICTY, Carla del Ponte, in preparing indictments against Croatian generals in the Trial of Gotovina et al. After the convictions of Ante Gotovina and Mlden Markač were reversed, he stated that "Croats gave huge money for generals' freedom".[5]
