Robert A. Cohen, one of the founding partners of Tabat, Cohen, Blum & Yovino, LLP, has practiced matrimonial and family law in Suffolk and Nassau counties for more than 35 years. While his front page New York Law Journal trial decisions and landmark appellate cases reflect his litigation success, Mr. Cohen's focus on the psychology of settlement negotiations also achieves positive results. He was selected to the board of directors of the Suffolk County Matrimonial Bar Association and a member of the prestigious American Inns of the Court. He frequently lectures on custody, equitable distribution and support issues, as well as trial techniques. Mr. Cohen's continuing selection to the Super Lawyers list and achievement of an AV® Preeminent™ Peer Review Rating from Martindale-Hubbell® illustrates the great respect he has earned from his peers and the judiciary.

Bob was by my side every step of the way through my entire divorce. He was recommended to me and I would highly recommend Bob to anyone who unfortunately is getting divorced. I never once felt alone or unsure because he would immediately respond if I needed him, and explain things to me in a way th...

Robert was highly recommended to me and he lived up to the referral as well as more. Bob takes the unknown out of the divorce process and approaches it head on while explaining the progress allowing the client to feel less overwhelmed. He is a negotiator, your best advocate as well as someone who wil...

"Robert is the kind of attorney you want. He focuses on the important things, and the bottom line. He doesn't fan the flames of divorce matters. An excellent trial attorney as well, he is prepared and astute."
"I endorse this lawyer. Mr. Cohen is very well respected in his field of law and provides excellent representation. I recommend him wholeheartedly to anyone looking for an attorney."
"I have worked as a Law Guardian on a few of Mr. Cohen's cases. I can attest to his professionalism and zealous activism on behalf of his clients. Both the bench and the bar respect Bob for his knowledge of the law and his ability to try cases, but it all goes without saying that Bob knows how to settle cases whenever possible. The most important asset that a matrimonial attorney can have is the ongoing compassion for each and every client that comes through the door, regardless of how many times we may have heard similar cases. It amazes me how Bob is a constant cheerleader to us all, reminding us to keep our eyes on the "prize" and that prize is the outcomes for our clients. If a client wants a winning attorney who will get them the best outcome on their case, then Bob Cohen is their clear choice."
