Attorney Justin Padway at Padway & Padway LTD, was referred to me by my business liability insurance legal team. Communication between them was impressive. Justin was very thorough with the situation of the case and honest about my chances in resolving the case. Justin was upfront and updated me regularly. He has many resources to help with evidence. I was very happy with the resolution of my case. Sincerely thanks for your hard work. Justin made me feel he believed in my innocence. I highly recommend Justin Padway.

Where do I begin? Justin Padway was nothing short of amazing! He has a passion for not only his job but a passion for helping his clients, their futures and his clients families as well. We’ve been going through these cases for over 3 years and had trouble finding a lawyer that we feel would’ve did right by us. It’s hard seeing your loved one not get the true help everyone knows they deserve. This whole journey has been a roller coaster of emotions and Justin coming in, immediately put the family at ease. He’s organized, very thorough, hard working and just compassionate about every case he takes on. He listens to understand, he digs deep into the case, finds any and every flaw, and he always made sure to put his client first. He gave us all the information step by step, detail by detail and made sure he never left a piece of information out. We searched high and low for an attorney that we were comfortable with and actually trusted and Justin Padway was just that! An amazing person inside and out and truly has a passion for what he does.

We turned to Vladimir Gorokhovsky when another lawyer did not take our case. He carefully listened to our story, asked his questions and explained what we needed to successfully complete the business. When all the documents were collected and sent to him, Vladimir very quickly and professionally decided everything in our favor. From the very beginning, he inspired us with confidence that we would win. Although we were in different states, I always felt his presence and support. This lawyer is the best I have ever met. He is a high-class professional, a subtle psychologist and a wonderful person. I recommended him to all my friends and I advise you to contact him only if you really have a serious problem and need professional help.

Alex did everything he said he would and in a timely fashion as well. I was a doubting person and basically said I'll believe it when I see it... Well. I saw it and he was totally honest about what they could do and did it...

I had the pleasure of working with Attorney Alex and his assistant Emily who were both great! I honestly felt that they cared about me and my family. When I first called Tabak I was not sure if I was eligible to get anything else from my work comp claim since the claim was already conceeded. However, Attorney Alex informed me that because it was a back injury that the insurance company owed my money for a loss of earning claim. He got me what I deserved and his law firm was able to help me with my disability claim and get that approved right away. Tabak Law has honestly changed my life.

My lawyer was very candid about my case and the expectations. The defendant, however, was extremely hostile and my attorney remained professional, empathetic and compassionate.

Hired Jason for a work comp case. I know my case was going to be rather involved so I sought out a lawyer through my Teamsters union. The Teamsters Lawyer out of Washington state recommended Jason.
After initial consult, I felt quite confident with Jason. However, at this point I felt compelled to write this review.
Over the months and months at this point of my surgery, having difficulties with the insurance company with TTD benefits, and not receiving medical devices needed for recovery that the insurance did not want to cover, I made several phone calls to Jason‘s office.
The first phone call I placed to him with questions about the insurance company/ work comp carrier went unanswered for more than three weeks.
When I contacted his office again, I was told that I needed to set up an appointment for him to call me back. This was accomplished with an appointment date, however, I did not get a call back.
I called his office again, and was put on hold for him to finally pick up the telephone. this was after my scheduled appointment time.
The Work Comp insurance finally came through approving the medical device with the help of DWD Madison Wisconsin work Comp division, (not Jason) that I needed after my surgery, but once again, I did that with the help of the Work Comp division in Madison Wisconsin not Jason. I also needed Jason to help me fill out a hearing request with the state of Wisconsin against the work comp insurance carrier because they were not paying me the correct TTD benefit amount. TTD benefits at this point in time are still stalled. The Work Comp carrier hasn’t done anything to adjust the weekly benefit amount.
I finally got the division DWD Madison Work Comp involved. Jason Oldenburg was not. I had to do this on my own. The state took a look at all of the monetary/medical equipment that I needed. And they have been the only ones that could give me any kind of help at this point seeing that Jason did not.
The state did all the TTD financial calculations, (which at this point the Work Comp carrier has not adjusted ) and stepped in about the medical device that I needed after my surgery six weeks after the surgery.
I also requested the paperwork for hearing with the lawyers from the DWD Work Comp division in Madison. I received the paperwork and it was quite perplexing, and I didn’t want to try and fill it out myself.
When I received the paperwork from the Work Comp division in Madison Wisconsin, I looked over the paperwork, called Jason‘s office, and talked to Ashley at the front desk, requesting a return phone call from Jason.
After 2 1/2 weeks it never happened, he never did call me back. That’s enough for me. If you can’t count on someone upfront before things get complex, how can you trust him when things start to get dicey/complex.
He apologized to me after the first unanswered phone call months ago, and said he would do better, keep me informed, “and to give him another chance” retaining him as a lawyer. I agreed to give him another chance and he did it again (no call back) I need help with my TTD benefits, he has been no help. I will not give or put my trust in a lawyer that cannot simply return a phone call. Anybody who Reads this review may think I am distraught, upset, or angry. I am not, just just very disappointed.
I wish Jason Oldenburg and his law firm well, he’s just not for me! I dissolved the client/lawyer relationship.

I was reluctant to try for disability, even with long standing multiple sclerosis. I knew I could no longer work full time, with my symptoms, but I questioned if I would win a disability case. I was referred to Jason, and he treated with respect from day one. He was very thorough in explaining the process, and answered all my questions with patience. He stayed with my case, even though I was denied a few times, but I finally won. Jason, thank you for all the time that you spent on my case. I appreciated his approachable demeanor, his honesty, humor and professionalism. A down to earth attorney who made me feel comfortable. Thank you.

Eugene was a great help to our family, very understanding and quick to access a very complicated situation. He impressed me with his knowledge and preparation and his people skills, including a great sense of humor, which helped to put a very nervous defendant at ease. Should we need additional help from an attorney in the future he would definitely be our first choice.

Mr. Bykhovsky is a very talented and capable attorney that listens to his clients and fights for their rights. He treats each and every client with the utmost respect and he has given me personalized attention and fought for my rights as though I was his only client. I am very pleased to have him as my attorney and I would recommend him to anyone looking for a top notch lawyer who cares about the little guys and the law.

I attempted to retain Mr. Tepper's services, and after a brief conversation, he said he would call me back the same day after reviewing the file. He never called back...ever. I tried to call him numerous times thereafter, and he never returned my call. In my opinion, this shows an extreme lack of character and professionalism. With so many attorneys available, why would you choose someone who truly doesn't care.

Jerome Tepper represented me in a divorce case and a follow-up for child support reduction due to change in employment circumstances (non-W2 to W2). I found him reliable and very patient, considering I am not. Jerome handled my case professionally. Contrary to his own financial interests, he always encouraged me to "work things out" with my ex-spouse and seek an agreement to avoid unnecessary legal hassles and fees. While this proved difficult, it was definitely worth the effort pursued, and Jerome's encouragement of this approach says much for his personal character!
I also found Jerome to be accurate and (yet sometimes) intentionally vague in his explanations of how family law is suppose to work. Jerome would rarely state with certainty how a judge would (or should) rule for my case. I'm not sure if Jerome was simply being cautious or if judge rulings are inherently unpredictable in family law cases. This uncertainty was unsettling to me during my divorce, yet Jerome maintained his professionalism by providing me with the accurate information he could and not speculating on outcomes he couldn't guarantee!

A nightmare that doesn’t end. Never was explained by anyone st the firm on how anything works with a SSD hearing. Never met her until a 20 min. Meeting. Never reviewed evidence. Asked how I would know if they received everything, was told there was 1800 pg.s I never received a copy of my rescission. Somehow got lost. But shaheed called to tell me it was denied. She sent me a copy a yr. later. SSD found me disabled but because Jillian never had me fill out a new FCF the judge went off an original one that I filled out in 2015 when I couldn’t work any longer. My health declined so rapidly , that that form wasn’t even current 2 months after it was filled out. I was denied under the basis that even though the drs. Found me disabled and so did the judge they were confused by the the old capacity form that indicated that I was able to due things that I stated I couldn’t. When retanded, apparently they have u fill out a new FCF. She didn’t. She never received any of the dr.s notes that were sent in to social security. As it showed multiple documents that were the same . She didn’t due anything to prepare for my hearing. I lost 4 yrs. of fighting to an atty. who didn’t care. This is a repeat of the new case she filed on my behalf which came a year later. A case worker wasn’t even in contact before the case was up for review. They hurt my case so bad it’s near repairable! No empathy. Where is the justice?
