It is hard to realize the amount of years that my family has dealing with Emil Lax. There are no words no describe the commitment, energy, wealth of knowledge, and even the sense of humor that he brings to his dealings with the clients. His calm, effective and stable presence in a very busy and constant evolving legal arena gives us (the clients he serves) the trust and confidence we need to go through any legal process with assurance that the outcomes will be just. I am personally and professionally delighted to be able to write this review.

Jordan helped me with my employment agreement and I was very happy. He was very thorough and took the time to explain everything to me in a way that made me understand what I was signing. He was able to get my employer to cover the costs of my CME classes which was not included in the contract originally. I highly recommend Jordan Fensterman.

Jordan Fensterman, of Abrams Fensterman, recently wrote my lease agreement for a rental property I acquired. Overall, I was very satisfied with the job performed by Jordan and his firm. I did not realize how good and thorough a job had been done with the lease agreement until I had our problem with one of my tenants. The lease agreement enabled me to recoup damages that the former tenant had done to the apartment and enabled me to continue to collect rent from said tenant after the tenant had vacated the apartment and broken the lease agreement early. I would highly recommend you consult with Abrams Fensterman for your small and large business needs as you do not know what problems are going to arise in a business transaction whereas Abrams Fensterman with their decades of experience has already seen most of the problems you are likely to face with their other clients and they can help protect your interest from various issues as well as hopefully preventing them from occurring by making you aware of the same.

Michael is an incredible attorney and a wonderful person. He was extremely professional, friendly, honest, and diligent. Thanks to Michael's hard work, we obtained a result much greater than what I could have hoped for and I could not possibly be happier. He was always easy to reach and would gladly answer any questions or concerns I had. There is no doubt that I would recommend him to any family or friends who are in a similar situation as I was in. With Michael, you not only get an extremely talented and hard working attorney but also a kind, caring friend.

When my wife got crushed by an out of control 18 wheeler in Orange County NY a friend recommended I call Mr. Feldman. It turned out to be the best decision for my family. Not only did he represent us fairly and honestly, he listened to our needs and saw when we needed to be calmed through the process. He was kind to my wife and I, and a bulldog in court. Very professional, and secured us a jury verdict we could've never imagined.

Mr. Gallagher turned my life around in 1991. I was a single parent and had to file bankruptcy. I was able to start over and turn my life around. I became a CPA and remained within a budget. Mr. Gallagher compassion and professionalism left a lasting impression even after 30 years.
In 2022, I hired Mr. Gallagher as a consultant on ESTATE issues. My aunt Mary passed away. There was the sale of a home, a living trust and filing of a 1041 involved. Mr. Gallagher helped me to navigate through the ins and outs of the process which transcended over a year and a half. I highly recommend this attorney for his knowledge, his compassion, his professionalism and his ability to give the client what they need in all aspects.

We found Mr Steven L. Weinberg, Esq. and his team at Wildes and Weinberg during a tumultuous point in our legal journey. Not only were they extremely welcoming and attentive to our situation, they were also able to pull off, what we were told at the time, a near-impossible legal dispute with what happened to our case due to our previous counsel. Their meticulous attention to detail regarding our already complicated case was the saving grace that put us back on the right track. Incredibly thankful for Mr. Weinberg and his team! Additionally, I would like to give special attention to Ms. Mia Ganotice-Olis, Esq. and Ms. Stephanie Fabian. Ms. Mia was assigned with our case and handled it with the utmost grace and professionalism. She did not fail to update us every time a development had happened with our case. She took care of us and our case with the most passion and care that I've ever seen in a legal setting, and my family and I cannot thank her enough for every ounce of effort she put in for us. Ms. Stephanie was also on top of our case for the entire duration. She was excellent in researching ways to amend our legal troubles in the best possible ways. Without them, we would have been completely lost navigating through the intricacies of the world of immigration law, and thanks to them that we were able to fully understand the scope of our journey. I would, without a shadow of a doubt in my mind, fully recommend Mr. Weinberg and his team at Wildes and Weinberg to anyone.

As a Canadian, I was encouraged by many Canadian lawyers with US state credentials that their competency and expertise was comparable to top US immigration lawyers. This is not accurate. I am so thankful that I chose Wilde’s Law instead. Michael Wilde’s and his team understand US immigration law better than anyone, it’s all that they do. Michael or his son will call you themselves if you have any questions. This top immigration law firm makes you feel as if you are their only client. I cannot begin to express the peace of mind that I had dealing with this law firm. Going with a lower priced firm or a Canadian law firm will likely result in wasted time and cost in the long run. Spare yourself the trouble and go with this firm. These are good honest people who have true passion for what they do.

A friend attorney recommended me to contact Michael Wildes since we were embarking on what would become a very tenuous and prolonged process. I am blessed to have been directed this way, because with this team - Michael, Walter, Kenya - we had the best possible support (legal, but also in a personal way) that we could ever find. The team has helped us navigate the complexities of the process (over close to 2 years!!), always being there for us, very responsive, helpful, proactive in advising for solutions, very professional and worth every penny. Thank you Michael, Walter and Kenya!!

I was hesitant to contact an injury lawyer at first, as my accident was still fresh, but I am so glad I reached out and found Dan Smyth. He was massive help during a turbulent time.
I wish there were 10 stars on this review because I would give them all to Dan. I could not recommend him enough. He showed such compassion and took care of every little thing for me during the duration of my case. I relocated mid-case to the other side of the country and his communication and care did not waiver.
No question all other lawyers at the practice will possess the same great qualities.

There are no superlatives that fully capture this lawyers skills. We faced a rash of attorneys working for the government to avoid salient points and deny relief. Chad calmly cut through all the excuses. He quickly grasped all of the nuances of the case with minimal need for clarification. He laid out a comprehensive argument on our behalf. I could find no holes or errors in his case. Evidentially, neither could the entire rash of attorneys. The argument sailed through ahead of schedule and full relief was granted. If you need legal assistance, there is likely no one better than Chad to assist.

I cannot say enough good things about the Morelli Law Firm. From the moment I contacted them, I was treated with professionalism and respect. The entire team went above and beyond to handle my case efficiently and effectively. They kept me informed every step of the way and were always available to answer any questions I had. I am extremely satisfied with the outcome of my case and would highly recommend the Morelli Law Firm to anyone in need of legal assistance.

For Tomek it all comes naturally, as if he was born to be a Lawyer. Thankfully the destiny has brought such a great professional for NY clients. Tomek has an outstanding sense of responsibility to deal with a case and manage it until the end with every effort. He is very empathetic and tireless and builds up very detailed analysis with his clients. I think the most important part is that he does this job from his heart and helps people who would otherwise lack such a great representation.
