    ""More knowledgeable than other attorneys""
    I hired Robert Sheehan second and wish I had hired him first. He is a quick study, knows more than other lawyers about case law, quickly filed motions to compel that should have been filed months earlier. He is also a kind young man. Highly recommended!

    "Outstanding Legal Support"
    Attorney Rob Sheehan was integral in helping me navigate through a VERY tenuous divorce and child custody proceeding. He has extensive knowledge in all of the aspects that impacted my case and always offered an even-keeled consultative lens when I had questions….which was often. Rob was very accessible during the 12+ month process and I felt that he had my back the entire way, including helping to manage VERY erratic opposing counsel. I wouldn’t hesitate to use him again and would highly recommend him to anyone in a similar situation.

    I just want to say thank you for all the support and guidance you gave me all through the 2 years process with my case. You fought for me.

Attorney Marquette, you are more than an attorney you played the roll of my counselor, my psychiatrist, my friend. I don't have words to describe how grateful am I that I had you representing me; I always felt confident when I was in front of the judge because of you. Thank you for everything. God bless you!!!

    "I truly recommend his services and his professionalism."
    Attorney Sheehan is an awesome lawyer. I hired an attorney who I will not mention out of respect. She was very unprofessional and during the process she was laughing and carrying on with the opposite parties lawyer. I felt it was very direspectful and disloyal to me the client. I fired her and I researched on a good lawyer and I was recommended through Attorney Sheehans friend, Dominic out of Stratford, CT. Attorney Sheehan is a no-nonsense lawyer, very professional and he fights for his clients. Especially for the rights of men. I felt confident that he was going to do all to help me through a divorce and make the process easy. All I could say is Attorney Sheehan fights for the rights of men when the state of Connecticut leans more towards women. Thank you Attorney Sheehan for fighting for my rights and making this painful transition a breeze. I truly recommend his services and his professionalism. Thank you Attorney Sheehan

    "Very strong and reliable professionals. Highly recommend."
    If you read this you might caught yourself in the same situation, which I had a year ago: very contentious and nasty divorce including the criminal protection order and arrest based on false allegations, overwhelming financial claims and the worst thing - separation from child. Luckily, Thomas Piscatelli knows how to manage all these things. The protective order was nolled on the very first hearings. The financial claims were halved. I started to see my child without supervision after just three months (in average it takes 8-12 months) and seeing him now on regular basis. Tom tailors his approach to individual situations. I switched to Tom from another experienced attorney. Tom lured me with his professionalism and aggressive approach - exactly what you need in a courtroom and out. Yet, his approach is well-balanced and he works on the best outcome for you using all possible means - from reconciliation attempts to fierce negotiations. What helps a lot - he worked as a court stuff and he knows the way of how different courts work and how judges think. Invaluable features: he knows good experts and GALs. He is a GAL himself. The most important: he knows methods that will help you see your child immediately, even if separated, and he is very wise and smart on financial side of divorce. You will appreciate it very much afterwards. On attorney fees this office is very fair and decent. If you think different, try to call other firms and you will see. Don't forget that you get Family and Criminal lawyers in one firm, and speaking about Tom - in one person. Well, last but not the least: you should help your attorney as much as possible and educate yourself about your situation. Together you will succeed.

    "Professional attorneys that give extra effort"
    I count myself as lucky to have retained GMR's attorneys. I hired them a few years after a contentious divorce. My ex-wife's attorney claimed that I owed several thousands of dollars in spousal support arrearage. I gave my unorganized box of receipts to Tom Piscatelli. He sorted through it, created spreadsheets and logs that proved my ex-wife to be wrong. Her attorney withdrew her nuisance suit. He also reviewed a labor dispute for me, at no cost, and gave me helpful advice. A couple of years later, Child Support Services claimed that I was in arrears and would not return my calls. Rob Sheehan proved in court that I was actually AHEAD in support by a month. The Magistrate and the Support Services agent apologized for wasting our time and noted that I was a dutiful parent. How often do you see a judge or Child Support admit that they were wrong? Later I had custody/ guardianship contention for my disabled son against my ex-wife. Rob represented my interests in Probate court to make sure we received a fair hearing. He compiled my son's school/ medical records, presented the best legal argument on my behalf and showed my ex-wife's inadequacies if she were named sole guardian. He was my voice and made sure I was heard. After all these cases, the bill could have been small fortune. Happily Judy Castater, the Office Manager, worked with me to create an affordable payment plan that made sense for my family's budget. And when I had to defer a month due to lost work time for a surgery, she worked with me again, no pressure. If you need strong and affordable legal representation that gets results, I highly recommend GMR's professional attorneys and staff!

    "Dependable, professional advice and representation."
    Over the past 15 years my domestic legal issues have been calmed by the staff of knowledgeable attorneys and legal administrators at Goldblatt Marquette and Rashba P.C. Having been represented on 5 separate occasions the legal issues involved with divorce have been resolved in a fair and dignified way. My recent representation involved retirement benefit division, which was researched and tactfully negotiated by Attorney Robert Sheehan. His understanding of court procedures significantly reduced the time spent in legal proceedings. I am thoroughly satisfied with the outcome of the many legal issues this elegant firm has resolved for me and I recommend them without reservation.

    "Excellent Representaion!"
    I was unfortunately blindsided by a divorce I didn't expect, complicated by false allegations of abuse, and all the usual financial matters that often times needlessly complicate things. I began my search for an attorney by searching for firms that specialize in handling the men's side of the issue. GMR was at the top of the list. I met with Atty Robert Sheehan, who accommodated my work schedule after hours, and was impressed with his common sense approach. Aggressive, without being abrasive. Robert allowed me to work "side-by-side" with him on many issues, as I had very specific ways in which I wanted things handled. My now ex-wife had retained a very abrasive and difficult attorney, and Robert never backed down, while never becoming abrasive himself, which was important to me. The most impressive thing of all is that he RESPONDED when I needed him to, usually by email. I can't stress enough how important this was to me during this very difficult time. I was pleased with the positive outcome Robert achieved for me, and would recommend his services to anyone stuck facing this unfortunate situation.

    "A Team to Trust"
    After dismissing a different lawyer who wasn't addressing my needs, I turned to the law office of Goldblatt, Marquette & Rashba. It was the best decision I made! I met with Attorney Robert Sheehan and instantly knew that I would be fairly represented. Attorney Sheehan helped me with two different matters and was always accessible to take my phone calls--even on the weekends and during his vacation! Attorney Sheehan was meticulous following up with all parties involved in my cases and I couldn't be happier with the outcome that was achieved. I would highly recommend Attorney Sheehan to anyone who needs representation.

    "Far Exceeded Expectations!"
    Attorney Marquette did a superb job as representation for my divorce. His unique negotiating skills, coupled with his honesty, wisdom and out-of-the-box thinking kept my divorce proceedings civil and on track. My divorce settlement ended fair and amicable. As a result, my relationship with my ex-wife is still intact which in-turn allows me to have a flourishing relationship with my daughter. I am not so sure that would be the case if our divorce was handled any differently.

    "Highly recommend."

    Attorney Robert Sheehan has been representing me for almost 2 years. I’m pretty sure I have had the most litigated/contested custody battle New Haven courts have seen in a long time, if ever. Today Attorney Sheehan was able to advocate for me, and the battle is over. I’m the happiest I’ve been in two years today, and I wouldn’t have had not been able to do it without all of his hard work, and efforts.
