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!

Danielle is a compassionate, caring and present family law attorney. She is responsive, timely and actually cares about the best interest of your child. Before I started working with her I referred a few clients to her based on a recommendation, and I’m happy that I hired her as well once I had respond to litigation for the first time in four years. It’s important to have someone who cares because otherwise the attorney will get bored of your case, won’t respond and you’ll be put on the back burner. Danielle is unlike the others and I highly recommend her.

All credit to Danielle and Linda for the incredible outcome in my case. Their experience and knowledge of the courts protected me and my interests. Reasonable and realistic is what I asked and that is what I was delivered. I felt the entire office cared for me as a person and friend. I followed their shrewd advice throughout and benefitted with a great post divorce life. Thank you!

Robert is the best of the best in regards to criminal law. I’ve known him for many years but recently worked with him in a professional capacity when a close friend needed a criminal lawyer. Robert was a bulldog in court and made the entire case disappear with no criminal record. I didn’t even know that was possible! Worth every penny!

Very professional. Hired him when my other lawyer just couldn't get the job done. In the unfortunate event, I would 100% hire Joe again.

I contacted Mr. Megale to represent my younger brother last minute. We didn’t have an attorney nor did we have thousands of dollars lying around to hire just anyone. Mr. Megale was our savior to say the least. He’s extremely personable, understanding and straight forward. He gets to know his clients in addition to knowing the facts about the case. He took the time to explain all legal issues to ensure we knew exactly what was going on at all times. The communication between us, him and his paralegal Jessica was always timely and sufficient. We were never left in the dark. Additionally, he was able to help us achieve the best outcome at such an affordable rate. Mr. Megale is the only guy for the job. We are so grateful for the work he did and will recommend him to anyone!

Joeseph Megale represented me in a traffic/criminal case. He was knowledgeable, informative, sensitive, and most important; likable to myself and to the judge overseeing my case. I walked away with just a small fine. Joe did a magnificent job.

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.

My experience with this law firm so far has been outstanding. Each and every one of its employees that I’ve come across from the it’s partners to the receptionists have treated me and my case like I was it’s main priority and I needed that support with the circumstances that I was facing. Mr. Riordan even took personal calls on his days off and that kind of support you won’t find at just any law firm. Thank You McIntyre, Donohue, Accardi, Salmonson & Riordan!

Hello I am leaving this Gentleman Matthew A Freer a very good review because he definitely deserves it. I had traffic court in Suffolk county Ny . I needed a good Attorney so I called his firm which is very good with calling back. Mr Freer was very polite, professional and helpful in my case which turned my situation with tickets of mine and had them all dismissed except one that was dropped down to a parking ticket so if you are in need of a very professional, smart get the job done attorney he definitely is it! Thank you again Mr Matthew A Freer!

Matt helped me and got me a better deal at Nassau traffic court than what I was offered. He got less points and a smaller fine, so it was definitely worth it. He came from a referral through my friend and really saved my bacon. Thanks Matt!!!

I was facing some pretty serious charges resulting from a bad situation and even worse decisions. He was responsive and caring. He took the time to help me even when I was difficult.
He definitely knew the right people at court and did exactly what he promised- to handle it and if I do what he says to do I would be ok…and that’s what happened.
Not only did I avoid jail which someone else told me was a real possibility, but I even avoided any criminal charge. This really gave me a second chance to get my stuff together. Thanks Matt Freer.

I retained Mr.Polk for my immigration case and it was the best decision I’ve ever made. He is very thorough, knowledgeable and professional. He took time to answer all my questions and assured me everything would end positively and it certainly did. I cannot thank him enough for his hard work.
