Gerry was very helpful in negotiating our fine. He was responsive and informative through the whole process and ultimately got the fine reduced to 15% of the original amount. He was even able to negotiate the payout term to 3 years. I would highly recommend him and would use him again if the needed.

We have used Gerry several times over the past year. From trademark issues, to litigation issues for us and against us. He has handled our account in the most professional manner expected. His responses via email and by phone are not only timely, but informative and to the point. He is thorough and not only handled each of our situations for us, he guided us with experienced advice on how we should proceed. For us this was amazing as a lot of the situations that came across were new for us and we not only needed representation but someone who could advise our best options. An attorney is someone you hope you never need like a dr but when you do, Gerry is definitely worth speaking with.

Hired Dave to help negotiate a back rent settlement. I'd definitely recommend him because he took the time to get to know me, assuage concerns I had, and clearly explain my best option(s)/next steps. After hiring him, he quickly resolved the matter at hand and helped me reach a fair settlement. Good bedside manner and emotional intelligence. Strongly recommend.

This has been a life changing experience for me. There is a reason why this is considered one of the best law firms in NYC. Everyone on this team was so supportive and clear on all the necessary steps to complete this process. I was so stressed and worried, and was helped every step of the way. I am so happy and lucky to work with such an amazing and compassionate team. Thank you to David, Robert and the entire team for helping me successfully file for bankruptcy. I will definitely recommend this firm to everyone who is in need of this type of help. I also feel that this was a great learning experience for me as well and a fresh start in my life, and will be forever grateful.

Through the whole process, anyone and everyone at this firm was there for me with any questions I would have at any time. Phone calls, emails, it didn’t matter. They responded quickly. I have to thank Robert for helping me through everything constantly. I also want to thank Matt for being there as well. I would no doubt recommend this law firm, and David, to anybody…Thanks again!!!!

Mark and his firm truly set the standard in terms of family legal counsel. He could not be more professional, knowledgable, responsive, instinctual, or kind. He helped guide me to make choices that would give my case a better position, he never passed judgment, and truly got me through a really hard life chapter.

Mark is sharp as a tack and has extensive knowledge of the legal framework surrounding divorce and custody disputes. He guided me through a tricky separation with compassion and empathy. I consulted with a few other lawyers who were dismissive or condescending. What really set Mark apart was his sincere desire and ability to do right by his clients and the law. I couldn't have done it without him, and I recommend him highly.

Gary helped us buy and close on our first ever home in Brooklyn. It was an intense, confusing, and intimidating process that often left us stressed and unsure, but Gary was always incredibly kind, patient, reassuring, and responsive, and it made it a lot better. We particularly appreciated how during our closing he went through and clearly explained and answered all of our questions about every document we were about to sign, and never made us feel stupid for asking more questions. Would highly recommend!

My experience was extremely positive. Giovanni and his team helped me to handle all of my mother’s affairs. He advised me when she was still alive from dealing with the LTC Facility to all the steps that needed to be done in preparation for our death, to now getting all the necessary paperwork in order. Giovanni and his team have gone above and beyond my expectations and helped me through a very difficult time. I know my mother would have been happy and pleased. I would highly recommend Silvagni & Como.

I came to the office for a consultation after going to other offices for consultations. She was the only attorney who told me to sit tight and not do anything right now because of several issues that I had. Everyone else just wanted to take my money. Alice explained all options to me, gave me prognosis for all options but said she recommends me to wait. I did and I am waiting, but if my situation ever does change, she is the only attorney I will ever go to. Honest, thorough and to the point.

My grandmother and I first met with Alice Antonovsky in Febraury 2014. By July 2014, my grandmother's asylum application was recommended for approval. By May 2015, her application was approved. By Alice's own admission, this should have been a very difficult case to work with, as my grandmother was in the country for many years and only applied for asylum recently. But in Alice's hands, it all worked out.
Alice Antonovsky is warm, very professional, but most of all, knows her craft and it shows in her results. Alice is easy to work with, follows up on every meaningful detail, explains everything very clearly, and answers all questions, no matter how long you keep her there. She even drove us to get the results from the interview, waited with us, and celebrated with us!
You are not doing yourself any favors by reading any more reviews; this lawyer is the one.

I was filled with trust in Aziz Juraev and confidence in his professionalism from the very first consultation with him. This was the first lawyer, at the very first conversation with whom, I had a feeling of confidence in the outcome of the trial. And this despite the fact that he did not promise mountains of gold and did not persuade him to become his client. From the moment the contract was concluded until the judge made a decision, I never doubted my choice. Throughout my journey, Aziz and his team guided me in the best possible way. All documents were submitted on time. During consultations with Aziz and Alexander, I was able to imagine how the court hearing was going and how to behave at it, and I was able to believe that my case was not without hope for success. They instilled in me faith in the American justice system, which can accept even words without indisputable documentary evidence as an argument. All this is possible due to the fact that judges are people too and believe in humanity. At the trial itself, Aziz behaved like a true professional. I am very glad that I made the right choice by choosing Aziz Juraev as my lawyer. I am sincerely grateful to Aziz and his entire team.

In the past ,I have missed large payments for 2 of my credit cards. As a result, I faced a large debt and a battered credit score. I came to Fridlin & Associates, P.C looking for guidance with securing loans for school. With ease and confidence , Elaine Fridlin had helped me restore my credit and aided me with securing my loans. Elaine had gave me thorough advice on achieving financial success in the future, and without a doubt I will be coming back here in case of any further issues! I would 100% recommend this law office based on their calm and reassuring manner, and once again would like to thank Elaine Fridlin for all she has accommodated me with.

Elaine Fridlin has not only guided me through a very stressful time in my life, but has exceeded above and beyond my expectations. About a year ago, I was in huge debt and was concerned with my family’s future. It was very stressful for me to find an attorney who I could rely on with my current situation. After meeting with several attorneys , I finally found Elaine Fridlin. Her calm nature, determination, and eagerness stuck out to me automatically. Hiring her as my attorney was one of the best decisions I have ever made. Without any issues, she negotiated with debt collectors and taught me how to manage my finances in a more efficient manner. Not only did she save me from losing everything I owned, but also led me into a more productive lifestyle. Thank you Elaine Fridlin for everything you have done for my family and I. I would highly recommend Fridlin & Associates, P.C to anyone seeking guidance with settling debt.

My husband and I had both been laid off within a span of 6 months and there was no way we could continue to pay off our mortgage. We missed a total of 2-3 payments and we received a notice of foreclosure. My husband and I were really worried about losing our home,therefore; we began to research attorneys and met with several potential candidates. Luckily, we came across Elaine Fridlin. From the moment we explained our current situation, she was understanding and wanted to get to work immediately. Additionally, she is fluent in Russian, which was extremely beneficial to us. Over a short period of time, she aided us with our foreclosure and helped us select the most appropriate solution to our conflict. Overall, we had a great experience with Elaine Fridlin and I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking assistance with foreclosure and debt.

I know Norm from the gym we train at together, and he's a vivacious, tough as nails sparring partner. I imagine he must be the same way in his work. I called him one time to ask for legal advice regarding another friend. The advice was outside of his normal field (employment and contact stuff), so he said give me a little while. A few hours later he called me with a ton of information that helped immensely. I was shocked, since previous legal aid whose expertise was contact law didn't provide some of the information norm gave me in a few hours. 10/10 I would recommend him to anybody for anything.

Anthony is a wonderful man and an exceptional attorney. My wife and I hired him and his brother Chris for estate planning and financial advisement. Best move we could have made, he is patient and extremely knowledgeable in his field. We had him complete the following: Trust Fund, Power of attorney, Health Care proxies, 4 completed last will and testaments. Chris his Brother: Opened 4 retirement accounts and gave us expert guidance and continues his advise any time we call. They are both available whenever you need them. THANK YOU !!!!!

I had plans to travel overseas for a three week vacation with my wife. My Will written by another attorney, was old and needed major revisions. As a Financial Strategist, I know I needed Trust created to ensure my assets were passed on first to my wife and then to my children (and grandchildren) from a previous marriage. Time was short, I had only two weeks to meet with an Estate Planning attorney and have all documents drafted and executed before our vacation. My wife, Boots is a Retirement Income Certified Professional and gets many attorney referrals in the course of her business. Fortunately for us, my wife received a glowing recommendation about Anthony Minko from trusted business colleague. Our meeting with Anthony was productive and enjoyable. He attentively listen to our concerns, asked the right probing questions, offered alternatives for us to consider, explained how to reduce or eliminate Estate Taxes, drew on a notepad the legal documents required and showed how all the parts fit together to ensure we had the proper Will, Trust, Power of Attorney and health care proxy to protect us and our assets now and after we are gone. We have met with other estate attorneys in the past and the Will and Trust package Anthony executed for us was half of what it would have cost through other attorneys we have interviewed. What I like most is being able to pick up the phone and consult with Anthony on estate issues or concerns related to my will & trust without worrying about being billed for each phone call. So not only Anthony do the documents in record time he provided a “superb value package” at a very reasonable cost. We have referred Anthony to our friends and clients and will continue to do so. Thank you Anthony and your talented team for your exceptional client service.

I am a big proponent of social media and word-of-mouth recommendations and after repeatedly hearing Irine's name, I knew I had to contact her. Irine is a subject-matter expert on all real estate issues, and beyond. I had very difficult and atypical documents to review and Irine spearheaded this process by thoroughly educating me and making the necessary corrections that were in my favor. I had contracts that dealt with family law, trust law, and estate law. Other lawyers that I consulted with previously, tend to own one narrow subject of the law. Irine is a one-stop shop and happily took over my entire range of contracts that needed to be executed.
You could always hear her passion, excitement, and expertise for all things real estate radiate through the phone or in-person. Irine was a strong liaison between the seller and the seller's attorney. She swiftly navigated challenging situations and sensitive matters with utmost diplomacy, eloquence, political correctness, and legal prowess. We truly enjoyed working with Irine and will gladly recommend her to others.
