I hired Joe and his team for a personal injury case. It was handled very professionally and with integrity. I was made aware of every step in the process and understood my options throughout the duration of the case. Joe is a fighter and always looked out for my best interest. If you want results I recommend consulting with Joe and his team. You will not be disappointed. It was the best move I made.

Steven and his team were extremely responsive to my questions and concerns.
There was not a time that Steven did not respond to any of my questions the same day. It took 18 months for my case to be settled and he kept in the loop the entire time.
If it wasn’t for Steven’s kindness, I don’t think I could have done it.

I had the unfortunate experience of being involved in an auto accident. During this incredibly stressful time, I was fortunate to have the expertise and support of Attorney Lee and Mark DeCicco. From the very beginning, they demonstrated a remarkable level of professionalism, empathy, and dedication to my case.
One of the most commendable aspects of Attorney Mark DeCicco's service was his consistent and open communication. He was always available to answer my questions, whether by phone or email. I never felt like just another case; I felt genuinely cared for and supported throughout the entire process.
Thanks to Attorney Mark DeCicco's truly exceptional skills and hard work, I received a settlement that far exceeded my expectations. I cannot recommend Attorney Mark DeCicco and the whole Sackstein, Sackstein & Lee team highly enough for anyone in need of an auto accident lawyer. You need them in your corner to win and win with the BEST possible outcome!

I consulted with Elan about an arbitration case and breach of contract. He was extremely thorough and took the extra time to explain the process and all options available. He was extremely caring and helpful. We discussed the different state laws on arbitration. I would highly recommend, especially for cases dealing with arbitration and/or mediation. I feel less stressed after consulting with him.

Jacob Silver is an outstanding attorney! My partner was dealing with bad debt and went through a hard time with not being able to make ends meet. I found Mr. Silver on google and saw the amazing reviews and had my partner make an appointment ASAP. Within 2 months Mr. Silver did everything with paperwork, meetings, etc. for the bankruptcy as he felt necessary and let me add that he is always responsive and available for questions when his clients need him because my partner would email at some random times and always received a response! My partner is now debt free. This was such a big weight lifted off of both of our shoulders, and I am happy I found Jacob Silver. Thank you for giving my partner a new start in life. I would recommend this attorney in a less than heartbeat, 10 stars! :)

Steven and his team were extremely responsive to my questions and concerns.
There was not a time that Steven did not respond to any of my questions the same day. It took 18 months for my case to be settled and he kept in the loop the entire time.
If it wasn’t for Steven’s kindness, I don’t think I could have done it.
