“I had the privilege of working with Constantinidis & Associates on my accident case, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with the outcome. From the very beginning, they took the time to thoroughly explain my legal options and provide sound advice. Throughout the entire process, Gus was highly professional, responsive, and always kept me informed at every stage. Their expertise and attention to detail gave me confidence and peace of mind. Thanks to Constantinidis & Associates , my case was resolved efficiently and favorably. I highly recommend them to anyone in need of legal representation!” Thank you for all your help.

Monica helped me became a US citizenship. I had filed for the I-751 nearly two years ago and Monica helped me get my citizenship in less than 5 months. She was extremely clear about what was required and what the expectations are. Very transparent and easy process. I 100% recommend her for ant immigration needs. She was extremely easy to reach whether that was through text, email or scheduling phone calls. Following from me finally getting my citizenship, Monica will help my parents obtain green cards as well!

Marc is an intelligent lawyer and a man of class and success. Fair and just, he knows what is right. And he lawfully fights for you, aggressively yet passionately, day and night. In the beginning, he openly took and handled my case with the utmost of confidence and respect. After word was out that I was involved in a catastrophic auto accident, He came to visit me in the hospital and introduced himself. There was a man observing me, dressed in beautiful light brown shoes and wearing a nice suit. I felt that God had sent me another angel. One who had kept me alive and another (Mr. Albert) who made certain that The Law will compensate me for my pain and suffering. With a positive outcome, he greatly exceeded expectations. The man is responsive and empathetic. The man is accommodating, appreciative, and attentive. The man is a professional and knew what I needed to see and hear throughout the whole legal process. Thank you, again. You have done more than enough to make me feel whole again. I am beyond thankful to have worked with you, and for the work that you’ve accomplished. I know that I am not the only one who feels this way. May you continue to rightfully compensate and bless many more hearts. He is best.

I was involved in a automobile accident, and I am incredibly grateful for the exceptional legal support I received from Marc S. Albert and Mr. Ramy. From the very first consultation, they showed genuine compassion, professionalism, and an in-depth understanding of personal injury law.
Marc S. Albert’s expertise in handling auto accident cases was evident throughout the entire process. He meticulously gathered evidence, negotiated aggressively with insurance companies, and ensured that my case was handled with the utmost care. His ability to secure the best possible outcome was truly impressive.
Mr. Ramy was equally outstanding—always responsive, patient, and committed to guiding me through every step. He made sure I understood my rights, answered all my questions, and provided the reassurance I needed during such a stressful time.
Thanks to their dedication and skill, I received a settlement that covered my medical expenses, lost wages, and more. If you need a legal team that will fight for your best interests and ensure you get the compensation you deserve after an automobile accident, I highly recommend Marc S. Albert and Mr. Ramy.
They are truly the best in the field!

Roman and his team have handled probate and real estate matters for us. The lawyers we worked with, notably Timothy and Adelina, are highly competent and professional, yet friendly and easy to talk with. Perhaps the best feature of the lawyers at Aminov Law is their proactive approach, always thinking a step ahead and keeping us informed.

Anthony supported me in a FSBO of a studio apartment in a cooperative building (Manhattan, upper East side). Anthony is a no non-sense attorney with years of experience in the NYC real estate market. He answers calls and emails promptly and effectively, whether it is a week day or the weekend. I chose not to have an agent representing me in the sale therefore it was essential for me to hire an attorney that would keep me informed and on board each step of the way. Anthony did that without ever making me feel that I was wasting his time with my very many questions. If I ever come back to NYC and need representation I will surely reach out to Anthony.

I had been with a prior law firm before retaining Mr. Ibrahim. The firm had my case for over 2 years and the attorney advised that the case was going to be very difficult to win.
I was told by a very good family friend they had retained Mr. Ibrahim on a mixed criminal/immigration matter and that he was smart when it came to these cases. I immediately decided I had nothing to lose and scheduled a consult with his firm. The entire staff was friendly and very accommodating. The attorney first required a due diligence check on my case for a reasonable fee in order to be able to properly give me an assessment of what my chance were. I liked that as it showed he wanted to make sure that the money i work so hard for didn't go to waste on a case that he determined was not one that he would take.
Upon receipt of the due diligence the attorney carefully reviewed the case with me, laid out a plan of action, and before I knew it, he had resolved the case in a way the other law firm didn't even know about or offer to me in 2 years.
i would give Mr. Ibrahim 10 stars if I could.

I was in and out of family court with what seemed like a new lawyer every time. Between the costs and the time and the stress, I almost gave up fighting. I was referred to Aiman Ibrahim by colleague who had used him in a similar situation. Aiman put an end to all those needless court appearance and was able to get me the rights I was entitled to have. When someone asks me about my lawyer, all I have to reply with is that I trust him with my family.

Maria represented my wife and I in a recent Real Estate transaction.
We sold our condo on Long Island, and it was a very involved transaction because there were multiple offers and several contracts. Maria handled everything with expertise.
Her knowledge of Real Estate Law and her professionalism were outstanding, and she was available to us at all times to answer our questions and deal with realtors and buyers attorneys.
We retained Maria because she had previously prepared our Wills and of course she did an outstanding job with that as well.
I cannot recommend Maria highly enough. She is a terrific attorney and the consummate professional.

I am grateful for the legal advice I received from Mr. Allen. His explanations and considerations were extremely helpful for me to maneuver through a difficult phase of my life. He answered comprehensively and at a great pace, while at the same time giving me ample time to think through the possibilities and how I want to move forward.
Plus, no additional costs were charged for follow-up questions on the discussed subject matter!
There are situations in life that are by no means desirable. But should one experience them, it is good to have someone like John M Allen by your side. To guide you, to consider various options, to identify possible consequences - in knowledge of the legal matter and with practical wisdom.

Mr. Allen is simply put: extremely effective. He was helpful from the very beginning and was confident of his abilities and delivered in a very short period of time. He was available anytime to talk to me and even though I was probably one of his smaller cases, he took the time to speak with me and made me feel comfortable and in the loop at all times. I have dealt with plenty of attorneys and am a law school graduate myself - John Allen is amongst the best I've ever interacted with.

Adam has been my entertainment attorney for the past several years, serving both my film/video production company, as well as various independent films I've been working on. He has always done a thorough job and presented his expert opinions in ways that are clear and comprehensible by a non-attorney. He is there to answer my questions and takes my feedback into account as needed for the various contracts, release forms, deal memos, and other documents he has worked on for us. One of Adam's key strengths is his legal expertise coupled with his hands on experience as a film producer. This inside knowledge of the industry gives him a unique perspective when working with companies like mine, and enables him to truly understand our needs and perspective. He also has immense patience and is a true team player. I'm very happy to have Adam on our team, and recommend him without reservation to anyone looking for an entertainment or IP attorney.

When meeting with a lawyer for the first time, it's important to ask the right questions to understand their expertise and determine if they're the right fit for your legal needs. Here are some top questions to consider:
-
What experience do you have with cases similar to mine?
Ensure the lawyer has relevant experience in the specific area of law pertaining to your case. -
How do you charge for your services, and what are the estimated costs?
Understand the fee structure, including hourly rates, flat fees, retainer fees, and any additional expenses. -

What is your approach to handling cases like mine?
Learn about their strategy, whether they prefer negotiation, mediation, or litigation. -
