Robin Marmon Loguidice

The tenants in my building formed a Tenants Association in 2003, and hired Robin LoGuidice as our attorney. She helped us organize (get a NY State Tax ID, a Bank account, and submit as relevant forms for a legal association). Robin, and her partner, Robert Gimble, successfully led us through two "...rent strikes" against two different landlords. I was the President of the TA for 12 years, and dealt with Robin on a continual basis. She is a terrific advocate for her clients. Fierce and tenacious, with good humor, is a way i describe her. And, she does not "sugar-coat".....you are told what actions are required, and what it takes to be successful in any legal action. She is our counsel today, summer 2015, for another petition regarding our Landlord renting commercial space to two restaurants on the ground floor of our building. Because of Robin, our building went from a dirty firetrap, with real code violations that threatened our very existence, to a clean, well run walk-up tenement that we are proud to live in. I do not hesitate to recommend Robin to any client seeking a strong advocate for their case.

Her and her partner Robert spent 3 years basically working on our case pretty much expecting a large settlement and had no interest in litigating our case. They were discourteous when we tried to contact them, lied to us about the progress of the case, didnt show up to court appearances leaving us to... handle adjournments for them on top of so many more mistakes that harmed our case. After 3.5 years of working on our case they got us the same settlement offer that the other side offered us in the beginning but they would be paid in full for their trumped up bills. When we didn't take it Grimble and LoGudice moved quickly to sue us for back fees frankly they didn't earn or deserve. In our last meeting Robert admitted that they hadn't worked on the Discovery that the other side asked for 3 years accusing us of not answering questions on it that even Robin pointed out that was their part. On top of everything theynwere never able to win any repair or problems in court while we lived in substandard conditions that the landlord would not remedy because they were trying to force us out by harrassment. Robert and robin never helped our problem and when I set up a housing court hearing to repair these problems they neglected to show up leaving us defenseless. They caused us financial losses to the other side because they mismanaged our rent to the landlord who defrauded us out of a couple months rent and almost lost our case in the process. They blamed us in this situation just like they blame us for their constant lack of oversight. I would never refer these 2 to anyone, they only care about themselves and lack true professionalism as lawyers.

Robin was very nice at the beginning when I hired her. She seemed focused and generally concerned with the nature of my landlord tennant case, for the first month. It's been well over a year, and depositions have been missed, important dates have been missed. She gives verbal advice to matters pertai...ning to the case, then quickly retracts her statements. Most of the time, I felt like she worked for the opposing side. In the last year that I have been her client, the only thing I ever recieve from her, are her trumped up bills. I still do not have a lease, or are the other parties we are suing being held accountable for what some would say were criminal activities against me over a year ago. It has been an aweful experience with her firm. I do not reccomend her or Robert Grimble.

Robin LoGuidice, of Grimble & LoGuidice LLC, is one of those rare finds that brings knowledge, experience,tenacity, patience and compassion to her client and the law. As a litigator she faces down some of the most unscrupulous landlords and lawyers on behalf of her clients. If a landlord wants yo...ur apartment, she will keep you in your home. Robin has seen every owners trick and scheme used to get a tenant out of their apartment. Her skill as a wordsmith and respect of the judges allow her to always prevails for her client. I know, I was faced with an owner who was emptying the tenants from my building. I wanted to stay in my home of many years. Robin LoGuidice kept me there at little cost to me for over THREE years while the owner tried everything eh could legally do to get my apartment for himself. Then, I would like to believe, the hand of god kindled a fire in the building. There was a mysterious fire in the building, in the apartment below mine, that forced me out in the cold. Robin made them repair my apartment, make the building habitable and put back into a new renovated apartment. The other tenants with lawyers lost their apartments simply because they did not have Robin. Robin was tenacious in protecting my interests and I was left as the only tenant in the building. The owner wanting an empty building to gut and rebuild, but was forced by Robin to give me a generous buyout, which I used to buy my own condo. I had an opportunity to sit in court during the six years Robin represented me and see some of her other clients appear in cases unrelated to mine. In fact in the last few years I have recommended her to friends of mine in New York who she successfully represented. Some of these cases and other clients I saw and told me about some extraordinary events. In one case, about 90 tenants in an apartment building with no heat, hot water or any services for two years are struggling through a cold winter. She got a judge to take control of the building away from the owner and have a manager appointed by the court restore the building and all essential services. Lives were saved that winter. Robin LoGuidice was recently described by a judge in NY County as" one of the most competent experienced litigators and most tenacious client advocate that has come before this court". This remark was made within a motion for attorneys fees (paid to Robin) by the losing side. In some cases when you win Robin compels the losing attorney to pay your legal fees. Anybody that has anything negative to say about her simply has an agenda and is not worthy of your time or respect. You can not do any better than Robin LoGuidice if you need an Attorney for Landlord Tenant, you are hurt or Injured by someone or something or even Matrimonial problems.

If it were not for Robin Loguidice, me and my family would be out on the street. She took on an abusive landlord who was terrorizing out entire building. Mrs. Loguidice has alot of grateful clients in this city, including most of my fellows tenants. Maybe it was the landlord's buddies who posted the ...negative reviews about her. She is a really nice, classy lady but she doesn't take any crap. If you want someone who will fight for you and get results, you can't go wrong with Mrs. Loguice. She also did some work for my uncle who is a doctor regarding an inheritance. He says that Mrs. Loguidice and Mr. Grimble charged him alot less than those big lawfirms and that and that they were worth every cent. I do not have a real high opinion of lawyers generally but I would highly recommend this lady.
