I had the opportunity to work with Mr. Hameetman on a complicated real estate matter and was extraordinarily impressed. One would rightly expect a high degree of legal knowledge from any attorney's area of expertise, but what impressed me was the depth of Mr. Hameetman's understanding of the deal from a business perspective (which I find lacking in far too many attorneys). He remained focused on accomplishing the deal and was creative and innovative in finding solutions. Others, I have found, are more interested in creating roadblocks and reasons why NOT to move forward. And so, while all the appropriate cautions and potential pitfalls were discussed, the ability to triumph over adversity (and not just the ability to say "watch out!") is my true measure of excellence -- as to which, I am delighted to share, Mr. Hameetman has no equal.

I have had the pleasure of working with Anthony Cannizzo on over 100 cases over the last 2 years, and I can say with great confidence that he always does a phenomenal job. He responds to all inquiries promptly, always has relevant and useful answers to general or specific questions, and fairly represents the time and interaction with me and my staff. I highly recommend him for Work Comp cases, but have also utilized his services for other areas of practice with the same, excellent results.

I've battle Dan Goodkin of Goodkin & Lynch in Los Angeles on a major contractor fraud case. His legal skills are superb. The case took five years to conclude, with about 2,000 filings and included 19 defendants. If you have a real estate problem, Mr. Goodkin is a great lawyer to hire for representation. I even tried bringing Mr. Goodkin in one of my cases as co-counsel.

I strongly recommend Robert Sheinbein to all who need the services of an attorney. I am so satisfied with Robert Sheinbein's services that I feel obligated to let everyone know what kind of an attorney he is. He represented our company when we were sued, and due to his knowledge and skill the other party settled without us having to pay anything to them. That is not all. He recovered the money that we had paid him for his services by reviewing our business insurance policy and determining that we were covered for the legal fees. We had no idea that our business insurance even had that coverage. Surely, after reviewing the policy, Mr. Sheinbein sent several letters to the insurance company after which we were finally reimbursed the legal fees on this matter.
Mr. Sheinbein also represented my father in a different matter and had settled the case to his satisfaction. The way this man works amazes me. He is thorough in examining the case and very informative in explaining it to you. He tells you the different possibilities that may arise from the case and how each possibility could be handled. He gives you enough information so that you, yourself can make the right decision regarding the case. Even though he is very persistent in collecting documents required for the case (which by the way works for your benefit), he is very nice and tactful all of the time.
His charges were very fair and reasonable; and his billing detailed all of his time, work and expenses.
Lastly, I am very certain that Robert Sheinbein is the best attorney out of all the attorneys that I have met in my life. I have been lucky to find him.

Five words describe Jonathan: caring, competent, personal, tireless, unrelenting. Last February, I hired J.P. to get my inheritance from a sluggish passive-aggressive trustee. My former attorney, to whom I had paid nearly $20,000, did little during the year. But when J.P. took the case, the tables quickly turned in my favor. He really kept the trustee and her attorney in line. What's more, J.P. obtained more money for me than anticipated—and months ahead of schedule. I recommend Jonathan Park wholeheartedly.

Mr. Ross went above and beyond for me in a time of need. I had a time-critical letter that had to be completed before a deadline. We stayed up until 1AM on a Saturday in order to get it done. He also is representing me in litigation on the plaintiff side in another matter. He is professional, knowledgeable and listens to his clients' concerns. He has my full 5-star endorsement!

I retained Russ to represent me in a very complex legal dispute. The dispute was with a large multinational organization that was able and willing to spend significantly more resources than me.
As I said, the litigation was very complex. It involved litigating two arbitration cases and two federal civil cases - at the same time. During this process I came to appreciate and respect just how good Russ is at his craft.
Russ was able to navigate us through these multiple cases and complex proceedings. He developed a narrative for our position (one that I had not even considered) and positioned the arguments to our strengths.
Mind you, he was doing this while being bombarded by three opposing legal firms and a gaggle of a dozen or more contentious attorneys. There were times where it was just Russ and me in a room with 10-12 opposing lawyers. As intimidating as that might be to some, it was not to Russ. He defended me and my position with vigor, skill & solid arguments. I believe the opposing counsels came to realize - pretty quickly - that they were not going to intimidate Russ.
Russ and I went through this highly charged contest for two years. One cannot help but learn something about a person when spending that much time - in a high stress environment with them.
Here is what I learned. Russ is a consummate professional. No matter how the opposing side tried to get under his skin or treat him with disrespect, his responses were always cool and level headed. Russ is a strategic thinker always looking to position for the "end-game". Russ is excellent at cross examination and he knows how to develop and present arguments that will carry the day.
Russ is also passionate about practicing "law". I once asked Russ if my case was difficult. He said "yes", then added, "but it is cases like these - the bully vs. the little guy - that made me want to go to law school.....lawyers dream of defending cases like this". It is that kind of passion about exercising his craft of "law" that, I believe, makes Russ a great lawyer.
In case you are wondering. We prevailed in all of our cases - two arbitrations and two civil cases. It was a complete victory and Russ was the one responsible for making it happen.
I cannot recommend Russ highly enough to anyone looking for a great advocate.

Ms. Sed represented me in a real estate case. Despite having an option to renew a lease before expiration at market rate, the landlord was trying to renew the contract at a much higher rate. She sued the LL on my behalf. Court ruled in our favor and forced to pay for my legal fees too.

My home was in the process of being sold and I lost my case in the trial court because the judge made bizarre rulings and would not let me hire another lawyer to replace my prior lawyer who after taking my money abandoned me. Mr. Klein took over my case and took it to the appeal court and was successful in convincing three judges to reverse the trial court decision. All efforts to foreclose and evict me have been halted! I found Mr. Klein to be dependable and caring.

I initially contacted Claire S. Fox of The Law Firm Of Fox And Fox regarding my father’s Trust after he passed away. The Trustee was refusing to provide any information about the Trust, refused to provide a copy of the Trust, refused to provide financial status of the Trust and refused to account. I was denied my rights as a beneficiary of the Trust. Claire S. Fox of The Law Firm Of Fox And Fox provided intellectual guidance and instructions. I followed and communicated with Fox over a period of months before I retained Fox. I have been a trial attorney for more than 16 years and have no experience in the Trust, Estate Planning, probate, wills and trust, and conservatorship proceedings. With Fox’ brilliance, I collected my entitled share and Fox and her partner, Frank O. Fox, were able to obtain an Order surcharging the Trustee and had the Trustee removed from the Trust. Although the procedure took over 3 years due to Trustee’s relenting adversarial position, it was well worth it. what a relief thanks to FOX
