If he can not help, you can trust he will recommend someone who can.

Mr. Whitman defended my 22yrs. old son in a robbery assault case. My son's plea was not guilty. Mr. Whitman was on top of everything through out the three day jury trial. He did an excellence job of cross examinations of all witinesses with his mild-manner approach. He gave a brillant closing agruement . It was like watching an episode of "Law and Order". Because of the legal skills of this attorney the jury unanimous found my son not guilty. Mr. Whitman kept us throughly informed, is very trustworthy, responsive to all call and e-mails and obviously knowledgable regarding the law. I would recommend him without any reservation.

Kent has been an invaluable legal advisor to my start-up business over the past year, particularly in the areas of privacy and vendor disputes.
Privacy is a huge concern for any e-commerce based business such as ours and Kent is on the leading edge of this evolving area. His knowledge and understanding of privacy law is outstanding. But equally important, Kent has a unique skill of identifying practical solutions that keep the company protected and make excellent business sense.
A second area where Kent has made large contributions to our company is in the area of vendor disputes. Like many companies, our success depends on effective working partnerships with dozens of vendors and consultants. Despite doing ones best to select the best and most honest partners, there are are always situations where vendors do not live up to their end of the bargain or try to change the rules previously agreed to in a contract. Kent's help in such situations has been absolutely invaluable. In fact, Kent's advice and actions have enabled us to squash all such issues before significant impact or cost to the business.
Finally, in addition to providing invaluable legal council, Kent has a great business intelligence and has provided excellent input into related areas of business strategy. He is also an absolute pleasure to work with. All in all, the best lawyer I have worked with in my few years as an entrepreneur and few decades as an executive in corporate America!

Robin Rossenfeld has been a volunteer conflict resolution professional with our County-supported community mediation program, for sixteen years. In this role, she has been a mediator (handling parenting and child support, civil, neighbor-neighbor, family and other types of cases typical of a community mediation program) and a group facilitator for public meetings, County workgroup retreats, etc. She has also helped our program do conflict resolution trainings of County employees and represented us at various community events. Robin has used her legal knowledge and skills to make her an even more credible mediator and facilitator. Her tenure with our program is nearly the longest among our active volunteers, and she has been, and continues to be, one of our most versatile and dedicated unpaid professionals. I have no hesitation in supporting Robin as an attorney or mediator who can be trusted to do outstanding work for her clients.

J.L. Spray represented me in a civil lawsuit to obtain a clear title to sell Real Estate in Lincoln, Ne. While the outcome wasn't what I originally hoped for, Mr. Spray explained the legal issues I was facing, some of which I was not aware of. With that being said, I must say that J.L. represented me in an excellent fashion. He was quick to answer any question I had and took steps that protected me in process. We had to deal with a very uncooperative defendant and because of J.L.'s savvy we were able to settle without going to trail. This was a difficult situation that lasted about 18 months.
In retrospect I am very satisfied with the outcome and the actions of Mr. Spray. At one point I was ready to drop the suit and just go on with no clear title. Again, he explained to me his or our plan of action and I stayed the course. Ultimately, the suit was settled and I give J.L. all the credit in getting things done.
I would highly recommend J.L. as an Attorney. If you need of an Attorney and want to be on the winning side Mr. Spray is your man! Lastly, he has a great support team behind him who take action without hesitation in addition to being very competent,

Mr. Watson is a highly regarded attorney who practices mediation and arbitration for construction-related cases. He is thorough, fair and exceptionally adept regarding soliciting honest communication from all parties during mediation and arbitration cases.
In my case, Mr. Watson was able to cut through the noise, identify why my client felt he had been wronged, and get to the very heart of the issue which wasn't actually any of the "claims" my client had raised. He communicated effectively between the attorneys and principals, and helped us gain clarity over how to possibly settle our differences.
With Alternative Dispute Resolution fast becoming a preferred avenue in which to settle issues that arise under construction contracts, I highly recommend Mr. Watson in your mediation or arbitration.

William is an extremely well respected and skilled litigator. In the initial meeting with my company, William was able to quickly grasp the business objectives and identify the legal issues in the dispute. After hiring him, he was able to bring a successful and cost-effective resolution to our dispute after just two depositions. William is a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend him to handle any dispute from small, pre-litigation matters to large, bet-the-company litigation.

Over the years I have had a great many lawyers, both in criminal and civil matters around the country. Atty. Marc Mayerson is positvely the best that I have ever had to represent me. He is very knowledgable in the field of insurance and all his work is very transparent: he let's you know exactly what he is doing and why he is doing it. When the settlement money came in Atty. Mayerson promptly gave me my portion of the proceeds. I highly recommend him for any person or private agency looking for a Super Lawyer.

Attorney Wood took the time to review all the documents I had provided him and pulled out the paragraphs of the contract that could help our case.
He even made additional research and talked with one of his colleagues on a few details he was less knowledgeable about.
Even though it was a very small case financially speaking, he did not spare his time or efforts and his knowledge gave us a peace of mind that no-one else had been able to provide us until we talked with Mr. Wood.
He did all of this for free as he thought his presence and involvement may actually be prejudicial to our case.
I would have hired him without any hesitation if my case would have required counsel's presence.
Highly highly recommended.

Josh Weiss, Esq. led the team in a tremendous victory for our company in U.S. District Court when the odds were surely stacked against us.
We did not have any witnesses; the other side had multiple. There were other strong factors against us, despite the truth being on our side- the burden to demonstrate this was quite an uphill battle with many obstacles.
This was all done in less than 2 months’ time for preparation. The dedication, perseverance, focus and amount of time and tireless research was extremely admirable.
The level of professionalism, poise and expert command of the points of law- exceptional.
I am so grateful to have avoided what could have been a devastating and unfair judgement against our company had not the attention and skill of Josh Weiss prevailed.
If I could give a higher ranking- I would. I have extremely high standards and don’t lavish praise easily. Mr. Weiss saved our company. I highly recommend him. He is extremely dedicated and worked very hard, as I am confident he would do for any client. I have had experience with other Attorneys with more experience. I would hire Mr. Weiss immediately, again, if needed, with no hesitation. CEO, Company Owner October 14. 2018

As an early-stage startup, I am extremely grateful for the knowledge and expertise Denis provided during a critical juncture within our company. Denis not only advised us on legal risks, but supported us through his research and even leveraged his own legal network to work on solutions that mattered to our advisors and investors. Orsus Gate gave us confidence instead of conjecture from what felt like a legal partner truly vested into the core of our business.

He is one of the best attorneys to practice criminal law in Milwaukee County Circuit Court. Unlike most other Public Defender appointed Lawyers, and Court/Judge appointed Lawyers, he doesn't try to force you into taking a plea bargain for a charge, or charges that you are innocent of!

I have practiced law for almost 20 years and serve as in-house counsel for a Fortune 10 company. Mr. Jaynes has mediated three cases for my company in the last two years. I was very impressed with his ability to quickly grasp the complexities of the cases. In each session, Mr. Jaynes gained insight and understanding of each of the participant's positions and then carefully worked with each party to analyze the strengths and weaknesses of their respective positions. All three matters settled on amicable terms.
Mr. Jaynes is a true professional but also friendly and disarming. This allows him to built genuine trust with the participants. I would recommend him as a mediator to any lawyer for any type of case.

I had the pleasure of working with Gary Carlton recently to resolve my 8210 request from FINRA, and I must say, he did an amazing job. From the very beginning, Gary demonstrated a deep understanding of the regulatory landscape and provided expert guidance throughout the entire process.
Gary's attention to detail and thorough knowledge of the industry helped me navigate the complexities of the 8210 request seamlessly. He was responsive, proactive, and kept me informed every step of the way. His professionalism and expertise instilled confidence in me, knowing that my case was in capable hands.

Mr. Larson has handled several cases for me, always with a better than expected result. He clearly outlines options and explains how the law will dictate certain matters related to the case. He has a brilliant legal mind and in my experience, he has creative ideas based firmly in case law. He's not one to shy away from thinking outside of the box while keeping his client clearly in the loop. My experience with Mr Larson has included large commercial construction disputes, employment non-competes and very complicated civil contracts. His associates are also very sharp; he is well respected not only in Georgia, but nationally.

I was rear ended by a limo driver in June of 2012. The policy holder of the limo fraudulently obtained insurance [reported it was a private, NOT FOR HIRE vehicle]: after the collision claim was settled the at fault insured was cancelled and my uninsured motorist coverage took over.
I ultimately had a rotary cuff surgery, missed several months of work in recovery, then had to have another surgery on my hand – all related to this claim (over $50,000.) [over a 20 month span.] My employer's insurance policy paid all medical and surgical claims and came after me to reimburse with any settlement from the UIM Coverage. I received short and long term disability benefits (over $80,000.) Both the Medical and the Disability Insurance Companies thought they should get some reimbursement from the UIM.
My auto coverage insurance company thought that I was not due the total benefit of $50,000. In UIM coverage because they seemed to think the accident was not severe enough.
Jim Stewart not only got auto coverage to pay the full $50,000; but, made it possible for me NOT TO HAVE TO REIMBURSE THE MEDICAL OR DISABILITY INSURANCE COMPANY ONE RED CENT. And, I have not heard a word from them since...
This man is a Super “Pit Bull” Attorney who will protect your interest the fullest extent. I have been very pleased and so has everyone I have referred to Jim over the last 12 years that I have known him.
Without a doubt, if you want to keep what is yours, what you have coming to you, and stop the competing companies from grabbing all the benefits you have been paying for and rightfully deserve, Jim Stewart is the person to trust your case to .
He is simply the best!
