Mr. Altschuler is the best out there. He is the definition of professionalism. Other attorneys turned my case down-but he was fighting for what's right for me not how much the case is worth. Today I'm still enjoying the compensation that he fought for and WON. Thanks again Mr. Altschuler. Call! Call! Call him NOW!

Frederick Altschuler is an outstanding lawyer. He has successfully represented me, my family and friends over the years and has always done an exceptional job. He's thorough, detailed and his years of experience makes him an expert at what he does. He makes himself available whenever you need him and takes the time to make sure you understand every detail of your case. Frederick's professionalism and knowledge of the law gives his clients the confidence to know that they are well taken care of. I have recommended Freddie and his partner Dan to many friends and colleagues and will continue to do so with certainty. He's the absolute best in his field!

Mr. Altschuler kept me abreast of the status of my case without me having to ask. I am the type of person that does not like to be left in the dark and hate to have to ask for information that I feel should be provided to me without having to ask or beg for it. I cannot tell you how impressed and appreciative I was of him and his staff on how they handled my case and kept me in the loop as things progressed. I highly recommend Mr. Altschuler and will certainly use him again. He's honest, fair and trustworthy.

James is a professional, who cares about his clients. Throughout my case, James was persistent and precise with each situation that came our way. However, he was always conscience of what was most important to me. I never had a question that was unanswered with detailed information. He was very clear of what the expectations were for my case and he was relentless in navigating my case in the directions that would be satisfactory to me. He established realistic goals for our outcome, however he never lost sight of what was important to me. He handled every situation with compassion and was sensitive to even to the most delicate issues. He took the stress and worry out of my hands and handled everything with a level of confidence and competence that was very much reassuring. I could not have been more satisfied and pleased. I am truly grateful to have known James and to have had him work so hard on my case.

James helped me during my divorce after two other attorneys led me astray. he guided me with patience and sensibility that I didn't possess because of the highly emotional process I was going through. James always had my wellbeing (emotional and financial) at the forefront of his practice. I suspect being a good person makes him an even better lawyer.

James and his team are extraordinary advocates, counselors and advisors. Going through a divorce is obviously a highly emotional and charged process and while I felt (and knew) I was receiving exceptional legal counsel and representation, I also felt it came with genuine care and compassion. James helped me deftly navigate the hardest period of my life. I would recommend James and his firm without hesitation.

Jayson Wolfe and his legal assistant Donna are the absolute best legal team and the one that you need to navigate the complex world of elder care law. Before meeting Jayson and Donna, I attempted contact with two other attorneys to discuss my case, which involved getting my 97-year-old aunt approved for Medicaid and in-home care.
The first attorney I tried contacting came well recommended but proved to be impossible to reach, as she never returned phone calls or responded to email messages. The other attorney I chose did have an initial consultation with me by video call, but when it came time to hire him, he suddenly stated that he was too busy to take on my case.
I called Jayson’s office feeling overwhelmed, and Donna answered the phone. She was able to schedule an appointment to meet with Jayson within a day. We sat together for an initial meeting that lasted over 90 minutes, during which he answered all of my questions (as I had a lot of them). Within the first 5-10 minutes, I knew that Jayson Wolfe would be the attorney I would hire. Here is what he and his team did for me:
• Advised me on the financial transactions that I needed to execute immediately in advance to prepare my aunt to qualify for Medicaid
• Walked me through the process of obtaining an irrevocable burial trust for my aunt
• Completed and submitted the paperwork needed to obtain certification of my aunt’s disability
• Set up an account with a pooled trust to allow my aunt to qualify for Medicaid
• Obtained approval for Medicaid in-home care for my aunt
• Advised me on the in-home evaluation process
• Fought to get me a new placement with a different MLTC (despite me ignoring his initial recommendation) which led to me getting my aunt qualified for a full-time live-in aide
All of the above was done for a fixed retainer, saving thousands of dollars.
While the above speaks to his competence as an elder law attorney, there is much more to know that explains why Jayson and his team are the best:
• Jayson and Donna are kind, caring, and compassionate people who fight for their clients
• They treat you like a human being and even more – they treat you like family
• They understand the need for communication and are always calling, texting, emailing to keep in touch
• They recognize that the process of elder care law is complex and that you will have many questions along the way
• They return every call you make to them and answer all of your questions, even after the point at which their legal work is completed, and will never send you invoices to bill for those calls – which is unheard of in most law firms.
I would highly recommend contacting Jayson Adam Wolfe if you are struggling with elder care issues. Thanks to him and his team, my aunt will not run out of money and will be able to stay in her home where she feels safe and comfortable. Furthermore, she will save over $10,000 a month from not needing to self-fund her in-home care.
My luck changed for the better the day I met Jayson and Donna.

Mark is an excellent lawyer. He is brilliant in his field and is exceptional in explaining things no matter how easy or difficult the questions may be. Best of all , he and his team always answered my phone calls. He made me feel at ease during this very difficult and emotional time. He obtained over 10 times more in a settlement amount than the insurance company initially offered, without ever taking a deposition or going to trial. He did this in less than 1 year and the case was fully resolved. He is highly recommended.

Mark is a phenomenal attorney! He handled my son’s complex criminal case like a true professional, a case that could have ended with my son being branded a felon, which would have scarred him for life and ruined his future plans. The case lingered on for over two years without resolution, no thanks to our previous attorney who constantly left us terribly anxious and in the dark. I only wish I found Mark sooner, it would have saved me time, money and aggravation. Mark is brilliant, genuine and responsive, he really knows the law and is well respected in the legal community. Having served as an Assistant District Attorney for many years, Mark is exceptionally talented and has the ability to put people at ease. This is no easy task, especially when one’s child is caught in a legal entanglement where multiple charges hang over his head and his freedom is at stake. To say that this has been a daunting experience is definitely an understatement! Thanks to Marks strategic approach and determination, the final outcome was a misdemeanor. We couldn’t be happier. I will definitely recommend him to everyone I encounter in need of legal counsel. We are very grateful to you Mark! Thank you again for everything!! DN

Mark Panzavecchia was amazing in regards to my case. He maximized the recovery amount on my case. From working in the legal field myself for a number of years, I know that there are other attorneys who would have just setttled. This was not the case with Mark. Because of his tenacious attitude and professionalism not only did the case not go to trial but he obtained the maximum value of all the policy limits in just a little over a year. I have recommended Mark to both family and friends because I know they won't be disappointed!

I learned of Mr. Kusnetz services after my divorces was finalized but I wish I had Mr. Kusnetz from day one. His firm has been tremendous in helping me with some of the things I didn’t original consider when my uncontested divorce was done by another firm. He has helped me with all of my post-divorce issues such as visitation with my son and my child support obligations. He is a true partner who has been there for me providing solid advice every step of the way. He has also provided me with advice on getting my house sold and brought in one of his many competent associates to further move things along. I am truly grateful for the service he has provided me and his willingness to put in the extra effort that makes me feel at ease with such a stressful situation. I would recommend him to anyone no question about it.

Phil Kusnetz is an attorney like no other. From the moment I calls his office, I knew this was the attorney for me. My case was dismissed years ago on the issue of grounds. I felt like there was no hope.
Phil explained no fault divorce and answered all questions. I was particular impressed with his confident attitude, and reassuring tone. A few months later, my case was settled and I received a significant distributed award. You will not find a better lawyer at any price.

This past August, Phillip Kusnetz represented me in a case that took place in Family Court. Although I cannot discuss the specific details of the case, Mr Kusnetz represented me in a professional, zealous manner. He was able to have the case withdrawn and settled the case in my favor.
I habpve worked with many attorneys in the past. Mr Kusnetz is first rate, straightforward, and more importantly, a highly skilled and intelligent attorney.
I have already recommended him to associates who are in need of immediate legal advice and will continue to recommend him in the future.

Irwin Klein is truly a god send. I had a complex case that put me under a tremendous amount of pressure. Not only was he resourceful, understanding and patient, he was also thorough. After he completed my first case, i had a unrelated landlord tenant issue that he resolved effortlessly in the middle of a pandemic. I would be in a unfavorable position today if I didn’t chose him to represent me in my legal matters. I’m glad to have used him as my counsel.

Mr. Klein was recommended to me by a very good friend of mine. Unfortunately, it was after I had retained a lawyer for the purchase of my home. The previous lawyer (J. Bradford Kenealy) had not taken the time to thoroughly and competently review my contract. After I took the time to review the contract, I decided that I needed someone else to represent me. That is when, after sitting with Mr. Klein for over an hour, I retained Mr. Klein. I felt completely confident that if I were to be absent at closing that he could sign for me and I would be able to sleep at night knowing that all bases were covered.
My title for this review was based on his ability to rectify all that was wrong with my contract after it being fully executed by both parties. Mr. Klein spent days emailing and calling the sellers' attorney's office. all on the premise of having a forum at which to renegotiate the contract since there was an unfavorable appraisal. Where some may have given up and sent back the amended contract, he was very persistent in seeing it through despite the sellers' attorney's lack of communication skills. It was then that Mr. Klein was able to eradicate all my fears about moving forward. Which would have been extremely frustrating to be left in limbo just before you are about to leave the country for 2 weeks.
Even though I could go on with details of the transaction and paint a more favorable light for Mr. Klein, the best detail to leave behind is that I will never look for another counsel in matters which are legal.

My wife and I hired Nino to negotiate the sale of home in Garden City. The sale price was close to $2,000,000, so we needed someone very capable. We also were not going to be at the closing, so everything needed to be pre-executed. Nino made everything seamless and easy for us, and everything was done perfectly. He's also very accessible.

I hired Mr.Ford after consulting 10 lawyers prior.He listened to what I wanted out of my divorce and educated me on the process and my rights in this matter. I found that Mr.Ford also was their for support and was able to leave the worrying aside.He filed all the papers and documents on a very timely schedule,court dates and what to expect.Mr.Ford was very professional and his office kept me up to date every step of the way.My case was complicated and other issues were addressed concerning property and maintenance.Mr.Ford called or emailed me with information and he stayed on top of things,which is very important as the court system is backed up so time was very important to me. I found that Mr.Ford was very educated in all aspects by book and his many years of experience...he was able to "think outside the box"..In the final out come my divorce was granted and all property matters etc. were finalized and I was made whole again..Mr.Ford did get me everything on the list that was requested at our very first meeting.It went down exactly as he planned and said it would go. I highly recommend Mr.Ford and will continue to use him in the future..he LISTENED to my wants and needs and met them in all aspects.He's a great lawyer and very compassionate and dealt with sll my issues with care and understanding.

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.

He handled everything with incredible skill and easy communication, especially when it came to managing the complex emotions involved.

Going through a long divorce was extremely stressful for me. Neil was there every step of the way fighting for me at every turn and calming my fears.

Neil was my attorney during a long and torturous divorce.

Made me feel like I was his only client, like we were a team. And the outcome bore this out.

Sunshine & Feinstein consists of an amazing team of intelligent, hardworking, and honest attorneys who take pride in their work and strive to get the best outcome for their client!
From the moment I met Joel Sunshine, Janet R. Faber, and Brian Feinstein, I knew my case was in the best hands!
From the start, they explained how the process works and prepared me for what I could expect.
I was truly fortunate and proud to have Joel Sunshine as my talented and experienced litigator!
Joel is a highly intelligent attorney and has a gift of being able to think quickly, outside the box and argue a case extremely well! I was impressed by Joel’s knowledge and how he was determined to get me the positive outcome I wanted!
Janet is a highly intelligent and talented matrimonial attorney who has an exceptional memory and knew my case inside out!
I cannot thank Janet enough for her determination and dedication on my case, in addition to going beyond the call of duty and genuinely caring about my wellbeing. Janet should be extremely proud of her work and the positive difference she has made in my life!
I also thank Brian Feinstein who is a highly intelligent attorney, for all the valuable input he contributed to my case!
I could not have wished for a better team of professionals, and I highly recommend Joel, Janet, and Brian for any type of matrimonial representation.

Hiring Joel Sunshine took away the worry and fear. From the moment I met with Joel and his team I knew I was in good hands with my Separation case. The intefgrity came through when he spoke and this was of the utmost importance to me. I did not want someone representing me who was going to spin lies. And this is what came through with my husbands lawyer-they lied and made up stories from the beginning. During deposition Joel was so smooth as extremely caring and courteous to my husband. Afterwards my husband remarked what a good guy Joel was and he even said he would recommend him to friends! (He switched attorneys a couple times during our separation). From the beginning Joel told me exactly how things were going to go including what the costs and outcomes and even timelines would be. He was right on the money with all these accounts. I have already recommended him and Stacy-his wife out to several friends and will continue to do so.

I have known Heather for close to 20-years. Without hesitation Heather is one of the most honest people I have ever known. When it comes to the practice of law Heather is unequivocally at the top of my list of attorney’s to consult and hire.
I have hired Heather twice. The first time was in 2005 when I needed an experienced matrimonial attorney. The second time was in in 2015 when I needed a real estate lawyer that knew every nook and cranny of the home selling process. Both times I retained Heather at the moment that I knew I would need an expert to guide me through two of the more difficult aspects of life that one sometimes has to contend with legally. As it related to my real estate transaction, Heather was there for me from before the house was listed with a Real Estate Broker to the afternoon when I signed the last document of the sale. Throughout the process Heather made sure that I understood how the home selling process would take place (it was my first time selling a home) and what the legal aspects would entail.
I have also consulted Heather over the years on several legal questions including what constituted an emergency when I needed to have a Power-of-Attorney drawn up extremely quickly. Heather drove to where I was with the papers in hand to be sure that the legal issues I was facing could be dealt with as smoothly as possible and within the legal boundaries needed.
Heather is a professional of the highest caliber and integrity. Heather and her staff are incredibly responsible to calls and emails, and Heather’s rates are very reasonable when I look back on the exceptional level of customer service that I was provided.
I would highly recommend Heather and her team if you need legal representation in the areas of real estate, family and matrimonial law. She is an exceptional person and incredibly talented attorney.

I had a very positive experience with Heather Winters. Heather Winters was my attorney when I sold my co-op in Great Neck in 2015. Heather was very professional and thorough at our consultation and going forward was extremely helpful and insightful with her advice. She took me from contract to closing. She always returned my emails and phone calls promptly and I heard the same from the broker I used in the sale. I would use Heather's services again in the future and I highly recommend her.

I have known Brian for a few years now, however it wasn't until recently that my company had retained him and his firm to represent us regarding a severe breach of contract situation, within the entertainment industry. I've always known Brian as an excellent attorney, but seeing him get to work first hand has been quite the positive experience! The man certainly knows what he's doing, not to mention his partners are equally as capable as he, with all facets of law covered. Brian's connections run deep, and he has been able to consistently hook us up with countless people, and opportunities for upcoming projects that we are producing. To say I am very pleased with his services, would be a severe understatement! Brian is by far the best attorney I've used (out of 3 others in the past) - HIGHLY recommend he, and his firm for any of your potential legal needs!

I met Mr. Lo Piccolo after a very difficult and unsavory experience with another attorney. I was having a difficult time, and was facing a charge that was quite frightening for me. Mr. Lo Piccolo was extraordinarily professional and thorough from the start. At no time did he pass judgements about my situation, just looked at all the facts and went from there. He was very clear with me about what my options were, the potential outcomes, and demonstrated a keen knowledge of and extensive experience with the law. His office ALWAYS contacted me with a reminder the day before a court appearance, and everything I needed to know was provided to me in writing. In the end, the result he helped to obtain was highly satisfactory in both his opinion and mine.
If you are looking for someone who will be straightforward, direct, and honest with you and not try to blow smoke up the proverbial rear-end, I would certainly recommend meeting Mr. Lo Piccolo. His consultation with me was free, and was enough to convince me of his value. I am glad I listed to my instinct to retain him, and believe many of you out there would feel the same way.
Good luck on your search.

He did make contact in a very timely manner with the contractor on our behalf and in a few weeks we got our full refund.
Thank you for doing a good job.

My wife and I have known Neil since college. We have used him to draw up our wills. I also hired Neil in order to recover a substantial amount of money in a business investment. I have consulted him over the years regarding issues where I needed an informed, intelligent and discrete opinion. I value his knowledge of the law, and his ability to achieve results.

I contacted Neal's office in 2014 to discuss concerns over my fathers estate. Made an appointment with Neal for a free consultation and decided after that meeting to retain Neal as my attorney. Took awhile to resolve my fathers estate which had nothing to do with Neal. Neal is very kind hearted and very supportive. Neal was always in touch with me as things developed. I never felt uninformed or lacking information. I couldn't ask for more from an attorney. I highly recommend Neal.
