Mr. Casale would have to be one of the most intelligent and well educated attorneys in all areas of law that I have ever been fortunate to meet. I was introduced to him through one of my colleagues at the hospital. As the President of my Nurses Union at the time and a staff nurse I had encountered an issue due to the vaccine mandate. He was extremely knowledgeable in all areas of law including constitutional. Mr. Casale explains everything clearly and always returns calls. Anyone who is looking for an attorney rest assure if you utilize Francis X. Casale Jr's services you will be in competent hands.

One of long island's top lawyer's! His manner is very welcoming and understanding. Frank takes his time to understand your case as an individual; Not just another case. Whenever anyone is in need of a lawyer i immediately give them Frank's number. He is always just a phone call away!!!

If I could give negative stars I would…after receiving their latest invoice I was shocked and disgusted because my case has been delayed in court and they probably made a mistake and billed me for their mistake. I heard nothing from them for months and when I inquired about my case status, I received a useless answer by another lawyer who charges $550 an hour. Her email response was not that long and they charged me half an hour for it. It was ridiculous! I plan to fire them and hire another lawyer…

I had the pleasure of working with Jason Newfield as my attorney when getting disability. I highly recommend Jason as an attorney. What impressed me most was his high level of education in the area of disability insurance, his patience and the clear path that he established for me in my effort to reach my goals. He managed the process and insurance company representatives well, resulting in me achieving my goals. I must also add that his compensation is very fair. If you are looking for disability compensation, do not go through this process alone. Let Jason be your representative. He knows how to win. Impressive

Top Questions to Ask a Lawyer
When meeting with a lawyer for the first time, it's important to ask the right questions to understand their expertise and determine if they're the right fit for your legal needs. Here are some top questions to consider:
-
What experience do you have with cases similar to mine?
Ensure the lawyer has relevant experience in the specific area of law pertaining to your case. -
How do you charge for your services, and what are the estimated costs?
Understand the fee structure, including hourly rates, flat fees, retainer fees, and any additional expenses. -
What potential outcomes can I expect from my case?
While no lawyer can guarantee results, they can provide an assessment of possible scenarios based on their experience. -
What is your approach to handling cases like mine?
