I love Beck Law! They helped me with my car accident in November 2023 and settled it today. It was a long process but very seamless and smooth on my end. They are very professional and has walked me through the entire process. Their office is right in Atlas Mall and so it is convenient too. I would definitely recommend this firm and Atty. Beck to anyone with your personal injury cases!

I wish I could give this place a 0 star. Sadly it isn’t an option. Sebastian worked on my family’s landlord/tenant case and he never even showed up to court. You want a lawyer who doesnt send the correct and proper court papers, you found your guy. I really wish I could give him 0 stars had to hire another lawyer after Sebastian’s “2 month case “ is now over 2 years. Thanks again Sebastian, you didn’t do anything for us. 2 months in it felt like he was working for my tenant and not for me.

Daniela, pound for pound, may be one of the best discrimination attorneys in New York. Her practice may be small, but she punches far above her weight. My complaint was against an academic institution with resources and clout that made them appear to be invulnerable. Through her dedication, wit, and grace, we stood toe-to-toe with the defendant -- and their massive, predatory law firm -- at every step of litigation. Her confident, commanding presence, and willingness to stand up for you, is deeply reassuring, and she earnest regards you as a partner and an equal in the process. I am beyond grateful for Daniela and would highly recommend her.

I consulted Daniela concerning an employment discrimination matter. Even before being retained, she was very generous with her time. Although I was able to give her only short notice, she prioritized reviewing many gathered documents and provided suggestions to me. This enabled me to meet important deadlines. She impressed me as a very sensitive and detailed-oriented lawyer. She seems to have exceedingly strong loyalty to her clients.

I had some concerns about my car insurance company after I filed a claim. I found Mr. Battisti's info online and contacted him. He was very friendly, listened to me and gave me advice. Consultation was free but it felt like I paid because he did not rush me off the phone like other lawyers I contacted. I ended up not needing a lawyer but if I did it would definitely be him. I 100% reccommend him.

As an attorney seeking counsel on a sensitive matter, I was very impressed with the overall package that Mr. Battisti brings to the table. He makes an excellent appearance, is well spoken, and chooses his words only after carefully weighing the best options. His vast and precise knowledge of law and procedure in his field made me feel at ease and was extremely happy to have him as my attorney.
He exudes his many years of Courtroom experience and wisdom. Mr. Battisti's mastery also shows in quick wit, and his zealous nature to get every inch he can for his client. If you want to sleep well he's your guy. Thank you.

Steven represented me when selling my 2-family property in Ridgewood, Queens. It wasn't a particularly smooth transaction at times regarding the seller's lender, but Steven is very knowledgeable regarding real estate law in the city and was always accessible to answer my (often detailed) questions and put me at ease. He responded quickly and that is very important for such a complex transaction. In the end, it was a successful real estate transfer and I appreciate his service. I recommend him wholeheartedly. A+++
