We have a large family and some of our children have experienced marital issues with separation, custody, relocation requests, divorce and malicious accusations. In each instance we turned to Robert Sunshine for guidance and representation resulting in the best possible outcomes. Robert was able to assess each situation, advise our children on the best course of action, manage their expectations, calm their stress and deliver results. He always presented a calm façade in review; and then a high expertise and passion in the courtroom. We were amazed at how well prepared he was and how he anticipated even the remotest of possible topics that could have arisen. He always had supporting documentation available with him and rebuttal material available for each. Where possible, Robert tried to mitigate expenses, which acted to reassure us of his focus on the end result, rather than extending billing hours. Our family was comforted in the knowledge that Robert would provide the best representation possible and could not have been more pleased watching his work in the courtroom, especially when compared to the opposing counsel. In a few instances the judge actually took guidance from him. He was familiar with various jurisdictions and the nuances of each judge’s thinking. The end results were above anything we could have hoped for. The bottom line is that Robert under-promises and over achieves. We strongly recommend his services to anyone in need of marital representation.
I had a matrimony case that was stalled in the court system for nearly 10 years. After losing every major decision...I hired Mr. Sunshine to help me bring my case to a closure. Boy did I make the right decision. In a relatively short period of time...we were able to change momentum of the case and bring it to a successful closure. I can't thank Mr. Sunshine enough. We had our moments of butting heads a bit, but that's normal when two people roll up their sleeves and get to work. So knowledgeable about the law it is silly. Nothing gets by this professional. I hope you never need his professional services, but if you do .....don't walk to his office....RUN. It will be the best decision you ever make.
Hiring Mr Robert Sunshine as my divorce attorney was the best thing I've ever done! for my divorce case, As a plaintiff Mr Sunshine stood by me consult and educate me , He givies me great advise and always communicate with me through phones and on emails. His great knowledge of family law and his strong competent personality as a lawyer made the defendant settle the case and i recieved the settlement that i deserved . Im forever grateful to Mr Sunshine for all the help he did for me ! Im definitely recommend him to everyone!
At a very low point in life I met a lawyer who was reccommened by another. The effort put forth on my behave was refreshing. Anyone who has been in court you always see lawyers reading the case as they walk into the courtroom, Rob didn't do this he knew my case personally, all the facts and what my goals were. he doesn't look for the easy answer! by the time this whole ordeal was done I gained a lot of respect not only for the Lawyer Rob Sunshine BUT the man he is. His Integrity! His Compassion for me and my children. I have gained trust in him not only as a lawyer but also as a confidant .
I could not be happier with Robert as my attorney. Robert represented me for both my divorce and then a custody issue. His knowledge, professionalism and personal touch are all superb. When first meeting Robert he explained the entire process to me and helped me though the most difficult part of my life. His care and actions showed not only caring for me as a client but also as a person. He took the time to get to know me, my situation and what I wanted for the outcome. Going into Court with Robert I was always confident in his ability to fight for my rights and wishes. Every time in Court we got the outcome I wanted. Every time. If you are going through a divorce or custody issue Robert is by the far the best to see in New York State. I have referred several friends to Robert who have all remarked about the incredible difference from their initial attorney to then having Robert. The absolute best.
I had retained Robert Sunshine to represent me in a highly contentious child custody proceeding. Robert Sunshine was conscientious, diligent and always prepared. He maintained constant contact throughout the pendency of my case and demonstrated amazing litigation skills both in and out of the courtroom. In the end, I retained full legal and physical custody of my three children and I am forever grateful for his hard work and dedication to my case. I highly recommend Robert Sunshine Esq.
I switched my attorney to Mr.Sunshine in the middle of my divorce. This was the turning point when the legal battle began to change to a more fair game. Prior to that, I experienced humiliation multiple times by my ex-spouse's attorney and my attorney had no idea how to stop it. Thank goodness that I fired the previous one and got Mr.Sunshine to continue the legal battle. His knowledge, expertise, sharpness and preciseness immediately showed an upper hand on and off the courtroom. Under his guidance, my case received a fair judgement. Not only that I regained dignity and confidence but was also awarded what I deserved the most in family property and assets division. I'm very fortunate to have retained Mr.Sunshine as my attorney. The most impressive of Mr.Sunshine is his professionalism. He always puts the best interest of his clients in mind. He responds to emails/calls within hours, not through his secretary but writing or calling his clients himself. That gives his clients a piece of mind eliminating the anxiety of waiting. Prior to retain Mr.Sunshine as my legal representative, I wondered if he would be like what the rumor said about his profession -- simply put, "blood sucker". But Mr.Sunshine has proved with his own action and character that he is one of the few remaining exceptions to the bad lawyering reputation.
If you are getting divorced in Rockland County run to Mr. Sunshine's office before your spouse does. His knowledge, experience, skills and personality are beyond comparison to any other attorney in Rockland. Before I hired him I spoke to friends of mine in the legal profession and every one of them told me to get Robert before your wife does. Professional and personable, a true champion of justice. I am lucky to have Mr. Sunshine representing me.
