I would highly recommend Robert Malewski. He is incredibly detail oriented and knowledgeable. He helped me get a to closing on a house that looked like a really difficult deal, and protected me from any shenanigans that the other party was up to. He is now providing me air tight leases for my new tenants in the same property. He is thoughtful, responsive, and you get the feeling that he really cares

I continue to use her service and recommend Julie Ridgeway to everyone.

"Once I saw Jason a few weeks ago. I received and felt relief and peace of mind I had not known for 5 years since all the family conflicts began over the " Family Irrevocavle Trust". It took no longer than 15 minutes for Jason to put me at ease and know I was not at a loss. There was hope, after all! There was help! There is success with Jason in my corner. Strong, confident, assertive, well experienced and READY!
To go to bats for me when the time comes! I would like to see the Attorney who could try to win over him!! No chance! I know I will be so well represented and feel so safe, secure, assured, and supported with Jason by my side in any Courtroom! Special mention and gratitude to Solomon too who has been a tremendous support to me multiple times...patiently and kindly listening to me on the phone...easing my mind and promptly replying to my messages as needed during this stressful time! Jason and Law Firm has squashed every misgiving and bad experience I have ever had with/about Attorneys "out there" who have made all Attrorneys look bad and have a bad reputation!
Jason changes those misgivings in a heartbeat!! I am in the best hands I can be! THANK YOU SO MUCH, Jason!" Sincerely Yours, Angela, Brooklyn, New York

I am a young chef in NYC who's been cooking for over a decade and unfortunately that really is all I know how to do. When it came time to be a big boy and make some crucial decisions regarding projects and contracts I couldn't imagine doing it without Jasmine. She was not only super informative but she was super supportive. I really felt like I had someone on "my team". She helped me get a fair deal and taught me to not undervalue myself. I trust Jasmine to the fullest!

Had great results using Joyce. Retained her for two criminal cases after being abandoned during pre trial by my initial high profile Attorney (Gerald McMahon) who became angry when I would not accept two unfavorable dispositions. He claimed the offers would not get any better and was unwilling to fight for me any further. Thanks to Joyce and her willingness to continue fighting on my behalf both cases were Dismissed. Her fees were way more reasonable than the aforementioned attorney and she worked harder for less money and achieved better results.

I contacted Mr. Dubno at the last minute right before I moved a substantial money to close a house deal. I wanted to put my name on the deed as I was contributing half of down payment and closing costs. But several banks were giving a hard time to do so as my name was not on mortgage and I has no US credit history. He resolved this mass with a single e-mail. I am living in my dream house with my partner and I am very thankful of his help until now.

I retained Brian and Evan for a visitation matter and they were incredibly professional, promptly addressed my concerns and offered effective legal advice to resolve my case quickly and efficiently. Evan represented me in court and immediately familiarized himself with the necessary case details, organized a plan of action and delivered, all in ONE court appearance!
Evan was sharp and quick to litigate his points on my behalf, without an ounce of hesitation. He also proved to be exceedingly understanding of the emotional elements of my case and was able to help manage my reactions, redirecting my attention to the factors that matter to successfully resolve my issue.
In the end, Evan did not only resolve my case, but he was able to highlight the other party’s disingenuous motives with remarkable poise and eloquence. I have truly never been more satisfied with an attorney and would highly recommend Evan, Brian and the rest of their team!

My name is Andrew B., while I was growing up all I ever did was be harassed and violated physically by the officers of the NYPD. I recall one day which is documented in my criminal history. I went and told my mother that I was assaulted by the police and she was not really educated due to health problems, so she states to me you shouldn’t have your behind in them streets. From that point on I figured that the NYPD can do whatever they want to do. I didn’t know where to go to for help because they say Moms' know best, so if she doesn’t know who am I suppose to go to for help. That was 1991.
I was arrested in 2003 and I was accused of a crime of possession which nothing was recovered. I was choked and maced by NYPD’s finest during my arrest. I spoke to my attorney that I had for the case about what happened to me and that’s when I was introduced to these great attorneys for civil rights violation cases named Andrew Stoll and Leo Glickman. Once I spoke to them I felt a sense of comfort because these were people that let you know that all the things that are done to you aren’t always right and if you feel that your rights are violated you should speak about it.
It’s now 2009 and I am finally awake from being asleep all these years. If I would have never been introduced to these attorneys that are great at what they stand for, I would still think it was alright for me to be stopped and frisked and not feel violated as a man. Leo and Andrew have gave me strength to overcome the fear of being afraid to speak up, because the people that are violating your rights will make you feel like they are not violating your rights as if they are just doing their job or just because they are in a position of power they make you feel hopeless. Andrew and Leo will make you feel the sense of comfortableness; you won’t feel helpless anymore because they are here to help you. They’re only just a call away.
Has anyone violated your civil rights? Stoll, Glickman & Bellina are the attorneys for the job. Don’t wait until it’s too late to speak out! Get HELP!
