Excellent result!

Robert Schuster is an outstanding, intelligent, result-oriented attorney who deeply cares about his clients, exercises excellent legal and professional judgment, and knows the Westchester courts like the back of his hand. I called Robert based on a referral after a DWI arrest prompted by my ex-w...ife put my law license and career in serious jeopardy. Robert painstakingly, firmly, and repeatedly explained the rather unique circumstances of my arrest to the presiding judge and assistant district attorney and ultimately was able to persuade them to drop the charge to DWAI - a non-criminal traffic infraction. I could not be more grateful to Robert for his genuine kindness, concern and caring advice throughout this very difficult chapter in my life. He said he thought he could deliver a great result and he came through with flying colors. I highly recommend him to anyone faced with similar issues or charges.

Excellent Lawyer

A DWI arrest is humbling, terrifying and expensive. My daughter was arrested for an aggravated DWI with a high reading in Yorktown. She was grieving a terrible loss in her life and had too much wine to drink the night before. The next day she got into a minor one-vehicle accident. Her blood alcohol w...as still over the limit from the night before, so she was handcuffed, taken to the station and held for hours without being allowed to make a single phone call. She had never been in any kind of trouble before and was traumatized by this experience. I knew I had to find the best lawyer possible to help us navigate this intimidating and powerful criminal justice system. I found Robert Schuster’s name on the Internet. His ratings were the highest possible and his many reviews were stellar. Now I will add my review to his long list of accolades. From the start, he helped me to accept the reality of the situation and to direct my energies toward helping my daughter find healthy ways to cope with her loss. He asked me to trust him to work for the best possible outcome. At the arraignment I observed his skills, self-assurance and excellent rapport with the staff, the DA and the judge. This was not as evident in other cases I observed, so I was extremely grateful and relieved to have Robert standing next to my daughter when she had to go before the Judge and DA. Over the weeks that followed, Robert was the consummate professional, returning all my calls quickly, patiently consoling me and answering all my questions while most importantly, negotiating with the DA and judge to achieve the best possible outcome, which was a conditional discharge. If you find yourself shaken to the core by a DWI arrest, call Robert Schuster. He will help you find peace of mind and the best possible outcome. Cindy, Dec.10, 2016

5 star results

Attorney Schuster from day one provided a realistic approach to our case and laid out what we were going to face step-by-step. He expertly guided us through the process from day one. Recommendation is to listen and follow his instructions. Most importantly, he asked questions of the DA and pursued av...enues that other lawyers may not have and the result was overwhelming favorable. We didn't "settle" and appealed our case and it was well worth Robert's fees. As an aside, he is well versed in the medical side of issues involving DUI/DUAI which could play a major factor in the outcome of a case. Lastly, he was prompt with returning call and questions, patient with explaining the process, and put us in touch with the right resources to make this "mistake" as painless as possible. You will be in good hands.

Professional, supportive, got exactly the result he predicted

We hired Rob for a first-time DWI situation in Putnam County. He got back to us immediately. We interviewed three attorneys over the phone, and were going to meet all three, but after meeting Rob we decided he was our guy. He was more expensive, but we were willing to pay for the best. He managed t...he case and got the charge reduced to a traffic infraction, which is what he told us he would do. He was professional, understanding, and utterly competent.
