A colleague of mine who had previously resolved a problem of a similar nature with a common employer advocated for the use of this firm’s professional services. My interactions with this excellent law practice have been nothing short of remarkable, and those are the adjectives I use to describe them.

It was so nice not to feel overlooked or unimportant. My case isn’t a big one but it’s more than just a case to me and I wanted to make sure that the firm I went with was on the same page as me.

Laura was extremely professional. Jessica needs to work on her people skills. The Secretary's/Paralegals are really amazing. I always thought we needed to talk with the Lawyers, but the staff can answer most of your questions and if they can't, they'll get with someone who knows. Also, they're very upfront about the paperwork they need. My advice....get everything they need right away, if your having problems call them ASAP. They're really great at helping you think outside of the box.

She offered very little to no help, guidance, or proper representation. MS.Cohn is a NEW attorney at Garufi law and DO NOT recommend her nor Garufi law!

I was going through a very challenging and emotional time regarding marital separation and needed an attorney with empathy, professional skills, compassion and tenacity (a challenging requirement until I had my initial consultation with Debra prior to hiring her to represent me). Her empathy and compassion was clearly evident and certainly sincere. She skillfully and tactfully guided me through one of the most stressful times of my life and in the end produced an outcome that was fair to ALL involved. Her tenacity to (for lack of a much better word) PROTECT my interests while doing so with skill, understanding and sincerity FAR EXCEEDED my expectations. I would WHOLEHEARTEDLY recommend Debra Cohn without ANY reservations. In the end, my life is HONESTLY BETTER as a consequence of retaining her services as my attorney. THANK YOU.

I can to Tully legal with a very complex and what seemed nearly un winnable case. Deb was appointed to my case last minute (the night before) but managed to get to court completely up to date on all the facts of the case. She was tenacious and refused to be silenced. Deb took my case very seriously and was very invested in the well being of my children as well as myself. Ms. Cohn spent many hours late at night pouring herself into the facts of my case returning emails in a timely manner and talking me through what was happening with my case. She was dedicated, compassionate, focused and found us an amazing path to victory. If you are looking for a compassionate lawyer who truly puts her clients safety and well-being first this is the lawyer for you.

After being in a car accident the prospect of going through a lawyer to resolve my case was daunting. However, I could not have made a better decision than going through the Scott Gottlieb firm. The entire staff was kind, compassionate, knowledgeable, and helpful. They fought to get me the settlement they felt I deserved and kept me informed every step of the way. I would absolutely recommend going through this firm and would use them again without hesitation.

I called Mr. Crowley to engage his help with a title issue for a real estate transaction. He was incredibly personable. Even after determining that I would not be engaging his services due to the particulars of my issue, he was more than willing to help and offer some helpful context that ultimately led to me resolving the issue. He even called me back after he proactively discussed my situation with a colleague. It was a HUGE relief to get this issue resolved and it was through his kindness that it happened. I've dealt with many lawyers recently and his attitude stands out. If you want a good experience, work with good people. That is why I'll be going back to Mr. Crowley in the future. Thank you so much!

Couple years ago, I made a stupid decision that not only almost cost me my career, but my life itself. While the mental health system as well as the justice system was failing me, Thomas Jackson's work allowed me to be the man I am today. It's been 7 years since I almost lost my life and was incarcerated for it, facing several serious lifetime problem charges. I now have a home, fiance and a career. My record is clean. I couldn't be where I am today if it wasn't for his practice. Thank you, Thomas.

Frankly, I'm surprised by some of the comments about Ms. Cohen not returning emails as she always responded to my calls and emails within 24 hours. Then again, they're anonymous. Ms. Cohen helped me through a very difficult time in my life with a minimum of stress and I highly recommend her.

Most frustrating legal situation i have ever dealt with. Filed chapter 7, i did alot of running around getting our lawyer specific information that she requested, for her to only mix up our information with someone else's case. Sent us information on a vehicle that i never had or owned, said she never recieved paperwork that i specifically put in her hands, included a loan in our chapter 7 that i told her i wanted to pay off. She even instructed me to go to the county and ask for specific information that she needed so the loan wouldn't be included in my chapter 7. My wife and I told her I was the only one filing, for our attorney to put my wife's name on the paperwork . Luckily we caught her mistake . I said we because my wife helped me with organizing the paperwork and double checked everything.

I hired Lauren Cohen for a family court matter. I was an emotional wreck at the time. She was there for me 100% and fought hard for me to keep my children. I was one of those clients who called and e-mailed almost daily. Many attorneys would have ignored the calls or been short with me. She returned every call and answered every email in a timely manner and was kind and professional with me at all times.. She gave me great advice, guided me though out the process and was a bulldog at trial. I would highly recommend her to anyone.

Through my prior experiences with professional lawyers, Mr. Kachadourian delt with my personal case in a concise and timely manner. Without being too in depth, my experience was good and the service was rememberable enough for myself to recommend Mr. Kachadourian to other family law related cases in the local, Broome county area of New York. My court date was smooth, and I felt like I made a solid relationship, as I was informed of what was and was not the proper action to take on said date.
