Robin Janine Shishido

Robin Shishido is an incredible attorney! When I first came to her with my legal issue, I was overwhelmed and scared and she made me feel like my case was totally taken care of. More than that, she did her due diligence and always kept me in the loop. She made me feel like we were a team and that jus...tice was inevitable— in my circumstances, at the time, that was a huge sense of relief. I’m completely satisfied with how my case concluded and I feel she and I will still have a good connection going into the future.

I wholeheartedly recommend Robin Shishido as an exceptional attorney, whose expertise, empathy, and tenacity were instrumental in my maternity discrimination case. As a senior woman in the technology sector, I faced unexpected and disheartening challenges this year. During my FMLA-protected matern...ity leave, a newly appointed male CEO began reorganizing the company’s leadership, significantly impacting senior female staff in favor of bringing in white men from his previous company. Amidst this upheaval, I was unjustly demoted and faced a substantial salary reduction. Navigating these circumstances was incredibly tough, especially while recovering from childbirth. After a disappointing start with another attorney, I was fortunate to find Robin. From our first interaction, she stood out as not just a lawyer, but as a fierce advocate for justice. Robin’s approach was a perfect blend of empathy, decisiveness, and boldness. Her empathy provided much-needed emotional support during this challenging time. She was not just a legal advisor; she was a confidante and ally who understood the nuances and emotional toll of my situation. Her decisiveness and clarity in strategy were impressive. Robin swiftly grasped the complexities of my case, laying out a clear path forward. Her confidence and straightforward approach were reassuring, making me feel secure in her hands. Robin’s boldness was important as she confronted this discrimination head-on with compelling arguments and a well-crafted narrative that highlighted the injustice I faced. Her ability to articulate the nuances of maternity discrimination law, combined with her passion for defending women’s rights in the workplace, was pivotal in achieving a favorable outcome. Robin helped me navigate a complex landscape, ensuring that my rights were protected and that I received fair compensation for the undue hardship I endured. Her unwavering commitment to my case restored my faith in the legal system and, more importantly, in my own resilience. It is without any reservation that I recommend Robin Shishido for anyone seeking an attorney who is not only skilled in employment law but who also brings a deeply human touch to her practice. Her blend of empathy, decisiveness, and boldness makes her an outstanding attorney and advocate.

I contacted Robin (she was referred to me) when I believed I was wrongfully terminated from my job as an executive in the financial industry. From the very get go, Robin gave me her full attention and honest professional opinions. She agreed to take my case, but before I did she was very clear and ...honest about the possibilities and the risk. Robin was responsive and communicated frequently with me, even though she had a full caseload. Her professionalism and compassion were outstanding, giving me the hope and confidence I needed during a stressful time. But the most important thing Robin did was that she believed me when I told her I was wrongfully terminated and unfairly treated. From that moment, she worked as my partner, discussing every option and even at times telling me what I needed to hear when I let my emotions (mostly anger) take ahold of me. Everything she advised was spot on throughout the entire process. Robin worked hard to get me a fair severance settlement, which kept me from having to endure a long and expensive process. That allowed me to move on, knowing that I got justice and that the company was held accountable for unfair employment practices. I am most grateful for having the opportunity to work with Robin and her team and I give her my highest recommendation.

Robin was intensely personal availing her time during my entire litigation. She managed to always make me fell as if I was the only client she was representing. She was both personable and professional with tremendous insight while creating a balance of preparation pre trial. She is truly gifted... as an attorney while embracing law and understanding of your particular situation. I would highly recommend Robin and her team. An attorney that sinscerely invests her talent, knowledge and skills enabling the very best results. Count on Robin....I did!!!
