Eleni helped me with my purchase of my first home. She spent as much time as I needed explaining the process, documents, bank requirements, inspections and anything I wasn’t sure about. I trusted her cause she fully explained everything to me and was always available. Wonderful person!

We recently sold our home. Mara went above and beyond to make sure the entire process went smoothly and was as easy as possible for us. She was extremely thorough and 100% without a doubt, always had our best interest in mind. I would highly recommend her to anyone. 10/10

It was a pleasure working with Mara. She was always very responsive and professional

23 Apr, 2016 by Akash

We appointed Mara and Alexandra to be our attorneys for the sale of our NY condo. She had previously helped us buy another condo 12 years earlier. I thought they did a great job - they were thorough, experienced, competitively priced, easy to get in touch with, and a general delight to work with. Although it was a cash sale, there was an added complication that we were foreign nonresident aliens, and she had to talk the buyer's attorney through how to complete the FIRPTA witholding docs - which she did very well.

I used mr. Curcio for some legal matters for my business. It was painless he handled everything for me. It was very nice to have a sound mind that I knew I did not have to constantly check on progress of the matters he briefed me with any information I needed to know and had it all handled very neatly and very smoothly.

Anthony recently represented me as I purchased my first home. He was extremely organized, professional, understanding, easy to get in touch with, and patient with my questions. I have recommended him to friends and would highly recommend him to anyone in need of an attorney.

08 Jun, 2016 by Anne

Anthony quickly and efficiently resolved and issue for me related to a lien on my property from an old mortgage by a bank that no longer existed. He was able to accomplish in a few weeks what I had been trying to do for more than a year.

If you are reading this in search of finding an attorney, you don’t need to look anywhere else. My experience with use of a different attorney unfortunately gave me huge disappointment until I found GAYLE ROSENBLUM'S office, located in Melville. After my latest extremely negative experience with alaw firm, I was horrified to retain someone new. Time was extremely precious. My custody trial was approaching and I was desperately looking for a new representation. I reached out to Gayle's office on Friday morning and Liz (Gayle's paralegal) was able to accommodate meeting with Gayle on the same day, (FRIDAY 5PM!). During the consultation, Gayle took the time and explained things to me, I was not rushed (English is my 2nd language). Gayle provided clarity, honest upfront information. Maybe not all that I wanted to hear but she was honest and said all the real expectations up front. The legal advice I received from her was spot on. My consultation fee was worth every single penny. From the day GAYLE ROSENBLUM took over my case, she resolved every single thing we went after. She was the help my children and I needed to get out of a horrible situation during extremely difficult times in our lives. After experiencing disappointing work practices of the previous lawyer, I found Gayle extremely dedicated to her clients, honest, and most of all, always on the top of the things and on time with things. Gayle gave me the confidence and strength to take the action needed during uncertain and scary transition. Gayle was always keeping in mind my children's best interests guiding me, so the right decisions were made throughout my case. The level of care and compassion I received from Gayle and her paralegal, Liz, blew my mind. Gayle made me feel I mattered and that my children mattered. It was a big boost of confidence knowing Gayle had my back. After the custody case was resolved, Gayle also represented me in Child Support Modification case in Family Court. Gayle again delivered fantastic representation and fought for increase of the child support with positive final outcome in this matter. Anytime someone is in need of a family law attorney, I’m quick to refer them to Gayle Rosenblum. I recommend her without any hesitation. I will always be grateful to Gayle for her expert legal representation, care toward my children and I, guidance, and support. This feeling towards Gayle comes from the bottom of my heart after the fantastic work she did in my cases.

05 Mar, 2024 by Anonymous

Gayle was at my side throughout. She offered guidance and direction. She made certain that I used my head and not only my heart as we counter offered to any demands or expectations that were placed "on the table". We have remained in contact over the years.

25 Jan, 2021 by Jeffrey

Gayle Rosenblum is an excellent attorney. She helped me enormously throughout my recent divorce agreement. After working with her and her staff I highly recommend her to anyone seeking a top notch professional matrimonial attorney. attorney.

Mr. Vogeney did a great job in knocking down the points I was facing on traffic tickets. At the time I was facing possible license suspension. I was very pleased with the results.

Ms. Elefante was instrumental as our attorney in the closing on the sale of my parents' house. Rose made sure we had gathered all documents needed, explained things clearly during the closing and had a very good rapport with the buyer's attorney, enabling the whole process to be completed in an efficient & professional manner. We were all very pleased with her services.

05 May, 2017 by Pam

Rose helped our family out during crisis. She established a Trust and a will for both of my parents. At the time I consulted with her, both of my parents were hospitalized and I did not have a clue what I needed to do. Rose walked me through the process! When my father was released from the hospital and put in a rehab facility, she came to the rehab facility as my father was unable to come to her. Rose was kind, patient and caring throughout this process and thoroughly explained what was in the best interest to our families needs. I HIGHLY recommend Rose as an elder care attorney.

01 May, 2017 by Helen

I hired Rose for my first case in 2011. Rose worked to get my Mother on Medicaid. My Mother required to be cared for in a nursing home. I would not have been able to complete this task on my own. It was very complicated and Rose did an outstanding job. My experience with Rose is like going to a friend or family. Rose was able to protect my home by setting up a trust. I also had to have power of attorney and healthcare proxy set up for myself and for my Father to care for my Mother. I had the same documents completed in the event I would need to care for my Father.Rose helped to draw up a will for myself and a will for my Father. When my Mother passed away, Rose attended the funeral. In 2015 I put my home on the market and Rose referred my to a real estate lawyer who was excellent .Rose advised me as well in the process. Again in 2015 I hired Rose now for my Father who became very ill. My Father required to receive Medicaid and she successfully got him approved. He has a different situation than my Mother and he can stay home, so Rose was able to guide me through that complicated process as well. Rose helped to set up another type of trust for him. In 2016 my Father was hit by a car and injured, I turned to Rose and she referred us to an accident lawyer who also is excellent. Rose continues to check in with me and I can contact her at anytime for any advise. Rose is the best.

Mr. Krangle was very attentive to my needs every step of the process for my class action suit. He took the time to field emails and answer questions never making me feel like I was being a burdon. He even called late one night when he found out that I would be awarded money to tell me and let me know how much. I am so greatful for all of his time on my lawsuit.

01 Dec, 2015 by Natasha

Where should I start from day one Mr. Krangle was on the phone for me making sure I get all the therapy I needed , He's great about getting back to you right away should he happen to miss your call. Although, he's usually available. He is extremely attentive, and informative throughout the whole process. It's already stressful enough situation with all your injuries, doctor's appointments, etc., so it's good to have someone on your side taking care of all the legal issues. He is also very concern about your situation .. Always stayed in contact he was just a phone call away literally .. If I can give him 10 stars I will . He's the guy to see Thanks for everything, David

How to Check the Credibility of a Lawyer

Before hiring a lawyer, it's crucial to verify their credibility and ensure they're qualified to handle your case:

Verify Their License:
Check with your state's bar association to confirm the lawyer is licensed and in good standing.
Experience and Specialization:
Ensure the lawyer specializes in the area of law relevant to your case.
Disciplinary Record:
Look up any history of disciplinary actions or complaints through the state bar association.
Client Reviews and Testimonials:
Read reviews on legal directories like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to gauge client satisfaction.
Professional Memberships:
Membership in professional organizations or specialty bar associations can indicate a commitment to their field.
Awards and Recognitions:
Honors from reputable organizations reflect expertise and a positive reputation.
Consultation Assessment:
Use the initial consultation to evaluate their communication skills, responsiveness, and willingness to address your concerns.
Ask for References:
A credible lawyer should be willing to provide references from past clients.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To make the most of your initial meeting with a lawyer, come prepared with:

Relevant Documents:
Bring all documents related to your case, such as contracts, correspondence, legal notices, court papers, or evidence.
Written Summary:
Prepare a concise written summary of your situation, including key dates, events, and involved parties.
List of Questions:
Write down any questions you have about your case, the legal process, or the lawyer's experience.
Financial Information:
If applicable, bring financial documents like pay stubs, tax returns, or bank statements.
Contact Information:
Provide details of any witnesses or other parties relevant to your case.
Personal Identification:
Bring a valid ID for verification purposes.
Pen and Notebook:
Take notes during the consultation to remember important points.
Budget Constraints:
Be ready to discuss your budget and any financial limitations.

How Much Does a Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a lawyer varies widely based on several factors:

Fee Structures:
- Hourly Rate:
  Lawyers may charge anywhere from $150 to $500 or more per hour, depending on experience and location.
- Flat Fee:
  For routine legal services like drafting a will or handling an uncontested divorce, lawyers might offer a flat fee.
- Retainer Fee:
  An upfront payment against which the lawyer bills hourly fees.
- Contingency Fee:
  Common in personal injury cases; the lawyer receives a percentage (typically 25% to 40%) of any settlement or award.
- Monthly Retainer:
  For ongoing services, businesses might pay a monthly fee for a set number of hours or services.
Factors Affecting Cost:
- Complexity of the Case:
  More complex cases require more time and resources, increasing costs.
- Lawyer's Experience:
  Highly experienced lawyers may charge higher fees.
- Geographic Location:
  Legal fees can vary significantly by region or city.
- Additional Expenses:
  Court filing fees, expert witness fees, travel expenses, and administrative costs may be extra.
Estimating Total Costs:
Request a detailed fee agreement outlining all potential costs.
Discuss any additional expenses that may arise during the case.
Negotiating Fees:
Some lawyers may be willing to negotiate fees or offer payment plans, especially for clients with financial constraints.
Pro Bono Services:
For those who cannot afford legal services, some lawyers or legal aid organizations offer services at reduced rates or for free.
