About Robert
Robert M. Milner is a partner and member of the Litigation Department, but his practice crosses multiple disciplines. His practice primarily focuses in corporate, commercial, real estate, construction and estate litigation as well as transactional work in the fields of construction and commercial leasing.
He has litigated extensively in the State and Federal courts and in the Appellate Division for the First and Second Department and before the American Arbitration Association, primarily on construction, real estate, and garment matters.
Mr. Milner has extensive experience litigating adverse possession issues in real estate matters and has won significant victories in the area of adverse possession.
Recently and after extensive litigation Mr. Milner, on behalf of approximately 47% of the limited partners of a real estate limited partnership, was successful in negotiating a settlement with the general partner, wherein the interests of all of the limited partners in the limited partnership were purchased for a total sum, in excess of $90,000,000. Mr. Milner was also successful in securing for his clients the return of all of their significant legal fees that had been incurred in the prosecution of the action.
Among other cases of note, Mr. Milner secured, after trial, the first judgment against a major bank under the then recently adopted Article 4-A of the Uniform Commercial Code by reason of the defendant bank’s misapplication of electronically transferred funds amounting to a loss to the client of more than $1.5 million, plus the return of the attorneys fees paid by the client.
A graduate of Hobart College in 1961, Mr. Milner received his LLB from New York University Law School in 1964. He joined the firm as a partner in 1980.
Mr. Milner has previously lectured in the fields of civil practice. He is a member of the bars of the State of New York, the United States District Court for the Southern and Eastern Districts of New York, the Second Circuit Court of Appeals and the United States Supreme Court.
