Prior to this year, I never had the need to engage a personal injury attorney but that changed when a third party created a hazard causing my injury. A friend recommended John and I’m glad I reached out. During my initial consultation, John set expectations, discussed next steps, potential outcomes and assigned Brian to my case. Brian navigated the process expertly and brought an unwavering focus to my case. His professionalism, compassion, and passion for helping a client is unmatched. My goal was for the third party to be held accountable for their gross negligence to hopefully prevent them from doing this to someone else. I believe John, Brian and team achieved this goal by securing an exceptional settlement for this type of injury. I highly recommend John, Brian and Schwartzapfel Lawyers.

Keren Birnbaum was a pleasure to work with. She is professional, pleasant, and very patient answering all of our questions. She took her time and made sure we understood all the minor details and legalese that could be confusing. Keren made everything easy to digest and our meetings went smoothly. She placed everything into real-life circumstances so that we can better understand the decisions we had to make for our Estate Plan. My wife and I finished up our Estate documents with the confidence that we created an appropriate plan for our family's future. Thanks so much, Keren!

Of all the lawyers I’ve dealt with in my life Neil Flynn at Horn Wright, LLP is the only one who took the time to listen to everything I had to say and answer all my questions before even discussing how he would be paid. Once we laid the foundation for our attorney-client relationship, he gave me several options including a straight contingency fee, a retainer/hourly rate fee structure or a hybrid of the two. His bills were always reasonable and when I questioned something he made sure to discuss it with me in person until I was satisfied. Most importantly, he did a fantastic job representing me and my small business when we needed a civil litigation attorney. I would absolutely recommend Neil and his firm Horn Wright, LLP to my friends and family.

I hired Mr. Marc Howard Weissman. All I had was a written will, leaving me as the legal heir of his estate; and even though I was not his family member, and this Will was not professionally written, He was still able to manage to intercede on my behalf, so that the Judge could recognize me to be the legal heir of his estate. He did a very thorough and professional job. I highly recommend him.

Michael A. DeVito is not only an amazing and well respected lawyer, he is an honorable and trustworthy man. As many of you may know, the process after an accident/injury can be tough mentally and physically, and the last thing you need is billing/medical/insurance to be a burden as well. From the beginning he made me feel as comfortable as I could be treating my case individually & not just as another number. He explained the process to me in its entirety giving me an honest timeframe; and always gave me the general understanding that he will take care of it, you just go to your doctors and focus on getting your body better! If you call he simply answers or always willingly returns the call, and if you’re still in need of something he is always willing to go the extra mile! I highly recommend having Michael A. DeVito represent you or anyone you may know!

Along with his immense amount of experience, I always felt he had our best interest at heart. We would definitely recommend him to a friend or a family member.

Mitchell handled a Collections claim for our family and not only were we satisfied with the outcome, but we were delighted to work with Mitchell. His persistence. professionalism (despite the opposing counsel being rude and unprofessional - Mitchell always took the high road), knowledge, strategical tactics, and intuitiveness were second to none. Our family would contract with Mitchell again in a heartbeat. He is a Mensch in every sense of the word.

Marc Weissman of Cobert, Haber & Haber has been wonderful! My husband died in 21 and left us with a mess! Marc has been a. professional, b. kind, c. unbelievably reasonable with fees, d. gone above and beyond a lawyer's responsibilities! My husband had a coop in Brooklyn and the coop board has been impossible! Marc worked with their lawyers and the buyer's lawyers to get the apartment sold. I know the sale would not have happened without his involvement. I highly recommend Marc Weissman!

William Petrillo is just an amazing blend of magnificent attorney and wonderful human being. When I stepped foot into his office the warmth and genuine concern shined immediately. His knowledge and ability astounded me. I knew within 5 minutes of speaking with him that this was the man I would entrust my future too. Today the outcome of my case is proof positive I made the right choice. After this experience I am left thinking there are attorney’s you could hire to protect you and there are those that you enlist to be your guardian angel. Bill falls squarely and unequivocally into the second category. Anytime I needed reassurance he was there. His staff was there. They were always there insulating me from the fears of possible incarceration and the complete ruination of my career. You truly know a person has your best interest in mind from the bottom of their heart when they stand to make more money the longer your situation drags out and they dedicate themselves wholly and tirelessly to expediting the process as much as humanly possible. That’s Bill Petrillo. I cannot recommend this man enough. 5 stars just doesn’t give his ability the justice it deserves. If my life were at stake in a criminal matter ever again I would trust NO ONE besides Bill. No one at all!

I retained Wendy through a recommendation from a close personal friend. I thought I wanted a "pit bull" but after I hired Wendy I realized, I needed someone that would fight for my rights without destroying my relationship with my soon to be ex-husband and blowing through all of our money. What I needed was someone who was firm and effective not "aggressive" and that is exactly what I got when I hired Wendy. I worked with her, and Anna Rusanov in her office. They advocated for me and my children and got me a settlement which I was extremely pleased with and did so without trashing my ex.

A few years back Len Sperber handled a lawsuit against our company for a liability claim. The company that handled our insurance found a loophole in our policy and denied insurance for that claim. End result several months later, what could have been a financial disaster ended in a sigh of relief. It was settled for $1000. Need I say more

If you're searching for an attorney, you must consider one's experience, temperament, personality, responsiveness, and legal finesse in dealing with "divorce" especially when children are at stake causing an embattlement the likes of which the movie Kramer vs. Kramer looks like a Disney movie. Tony and I never went to trial, but fully prepared for it up to the day of trial. His responsiveness is uncanny. He does not raise his voice, is not aggressive, but when arguing points, he will back his opponent into a corner with untenable arguments. He responds to emails almost immediately. He knows the law. We dealt with the opposition consistently lying, as did my Ex, about all matters and were prepared to expose the truth at trial. Go for a consult. Its a no brainer to higher such a qualified, personable, and knowledgeable lawyer who is a regular guy. His office staff were also friendly, competent, and compassionate. He will also make you aware of all strategies, and the costs for applying each. After, forensics, law guardians, parenting coordinators, full trial prep, I'm satisfied with the outcome as much as one can be. I was ready to see this through to the very end, and did, with a competent attorney in Tony beside me.

Eiber Translations has provided interpreting services to Lewis Bartell, Esq. for over 10 years through L'Abbate Balkan Colavita & Contini, Esqs. and more recently as a partner at Kaplan, Belsky & Ross, LLP. Our interpreters have commented about Mr. Bartell's extensive knowledge in complex personal injury litigations, malpractice litigation, estate and trust litigation, tax planning, guardianship proceedings, matrimonials as well as real estate matters, providing individuals as well as large corporate clients, the attention necessary to win their case. Mr. Bartell has been relentless in providing his non-English speaking clients all the preparation needed prior to testifying at depositions and trials and he has shown linguistically-aware leadership to all language service providers. We highly recommend Mr. Bartell to anyone seeking a top attorney who will fight for their case.

Top Questions to Ask a Lawyer
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 potential outcomes can I expect from my case?
