I can't say enough about Steven and his team. After weeks of searching for someone to represent us with a residential property issue I came across him and his firm. I immediately received a response to my email and a consultation was set up. What a relief to me and my family. That was just the beginning. From the moment my siblings and I walked into the office for our consultation we felt welcomed and put at ease. Steven gave us his honest opinion and advice on how we should proceed. We immediately trusted him as he is the expert. He took control along with his colleague Christopher Rienzi and things started to move very quickly. We were kept informed and received expert guidance/advice every step of the way until a positive outcome was reached. A+ to Steven and his team. I highly recommend.

I am thrilled to write this testimonial for Keith Betensky, my attorney who represented me in obtaining a permit that I was told we could not acquire. Keith was nothing short of phenomenal throughout the entire process. He worked tirelessly on our case, never giving up and always believing in us.
From the outset, Keith demonstrated a deep understanding of the legal system, use variance for various towns and was able to provide clear guidance on what we needed to do in order to succeed. He was always available to answer our questions and address any concerns we had along the way. His unwavering dedication to our case gave us the confidence we needed to persevere, even when the odds seemed stacked against us.
When it came time for the hearing, Keith was fully prepared and ready to fight for our cause. His attention to detail and meticulous preparation paid off, and we were able to secure the permit we needed. We could not have done it without Keith's hard work and expertise.
I highly recommend Keith Betensky to anyone in need of legal representation. He is an outstanding attorney who truly cares about his clients and is willing to go the extra mile to help them achieve their goals. Thank you, Keith, for all that you have done for us!

Rex is not only a great Attorney, he is the right Attorney. Early on when I enlisted his services, I was nearly in panic mode. I explained the situation to him, honestly and the words he said to me calmed me right down. I knew right there I made a good decision in hiring Rex. Furthermore, as things were not progressing as fast as I hoped, he told me the progression what how things would work.
After that I let him do his thing and now I am good. I would definitely, hire him again.

Rex got my speeding ticket in NY State reduced to a parking violation with 0 points towards my license! The consultation was impressively efficient, he quickly collected the most essential details about my case based on his experience, told me what I can expect and then went to work. He achieved the result I was hoping for - I definitely recommend.

Our son got a speeding ticket at a very high rate of speed. He faced the loss of his license and significant points. Rex helped us come up with a strategy that fit our needs and executed the strategy perfectly. Rex was forthright, honest and professional throughout. Ultimately we were fortunate to resolve the ticket with a fine and NO points. A fabulous result. Thank you so much for your guidance and help Rex.

I met Mr. Conte at a fundraiser years ago not knowing that I would be in need of his services. There were changes in my circumstances and I needed to update my will and prepare a trust. I remembered Mr. Conte who made everything easy for me to understand and cover my needs in the present and the future. He treated me like family and was attentive to my needs. Best of all he 'knows his stuff". I highly recommend him.

I can't say enough good things about Ivan. Of course, there's the fact that he was always responsive and made himself available. However, even more importantly he provided sage advice, understanding the emotions of the process of divorce, and making sure you understood all the factors and implications of decisions you needed to make. If you find yourself in this situation, I highly recommend Ivan as your attorney and partner in the process.

Harold Dee represented me on a speeding ticket. He listened carefully and explained things clearly to me beforehand. Then, he was able to achieve a fair judgment that included no points.

Found myself in a tricky situation with Larchmont court (a court with a rep for being "difficult") that I unfortunately had to handle while out of state.
Harold was efficient and simple to get a hold off and get started with. He picked up where I left off, had great communication, and ended up getting me even better results than we discussed in our consultation - from 5 pts to a complete dismissal. Very fair pricing and honest business. I interviewed a handful of lawyers, and I am elated I chose him to handle my affairs.

I am extremely happy with the services rendered from Harold. He helped me handle a speeding ticket and get a more than reasonable outcome. He was very responsive when I first reached out to him. He gave me advice once I explained the situation. The process was easy, I just had to sign a few documents. He periodically gave me update (my court date was schedule almost a year later). I did not have to appear in court. He handled everything. Afterward he sent me the judgement right away. I am very thankful for him and would highly recommend his firm. Oh and his rates are reasonable as well.

I initially hired a mediator for my divorce, when things took a turn for the worse I was referred to Ken Novenstern. Ken help me trough some of the most difficult unreasonable negotiations in and out of court. I have often referred to Ken as the big quiet man with the big stick, the stick of expert negotiating and knowledge in a court room. Ken and the rest of this outstanding legal team helped through the most difficult time in my life. I would highly recommend Ken for anyone seeking counsel for a divorce. Thank you Ken for all you have done for me.

It's a bad feeling when you can't even trust your own lawyer. It's worse when you feel misunderstood and unsupported. Ken didn't get it, and in one of my darkest hours, showed I couldn't depend on him. Many reviews here love Ken. This was certainly not my experience. Even considering a mutual acquaintance recommended him, I could not believe the shoddy/sloppy service I was offered. To be specific: early on, Ken forwarded an email to the opposing attorney, that had confidential communications between me and him; Ken routinely started our sessions late (a few minutes to 10 or more minutes.. he always apologized, and seemed very busy. Too busy to keep track of things, as he also regularly didn't have the proper paperwork in front of him, and wasn't adequately prepared for our conversations. - this despite my attempts to set agenda items beforehand At least a few times, he didn't forward key information/documents to me, that had been circulated to all parties, except me (namely: apartment appraisals, and the request for judicial information (RJI).. I learned about these developments in a surprise manner.. this is just unprofessional/too busy to attend to detail.) Finally, just about every meeting we had, he would take a phone call, or at least twice, someone came into the office to ask him a question unrelated to my case. This become normal. He always apologized, and it only took a minute, but I never liked it.) I addressed our communication issues twice with Ken. The second time I got a smirk from him, in response to communicating my genuine concerns. You're not going to take me seriously?! That's not going to fly with me. Not for $550/hour, are you kidding me!? From that moment on, I communicated to Ken that we should hold off on any communications with opposing attorney, to keep costs down, and to give me time to interview other attorneys. I didn't want him in my corner.. it didn't feel he was there anyway. Ken explicitly and brazenly, after that communication of mine to put a complete pause on all activities, in fact communicated with the lawyer. He thought he needed to, as it had "been some time". And I got charged for that communication! Unacceptable. Illegal? I don't know, about the latter. I appealed that charge, and it was removed from the bill, but the multitude of unconscionable, unprofessional, or sub-standard/sloppy acts and behaviors should be brought to others' attention. All this happened months ago (I still owe the firm $).. rarely have a felt more betrayed. (As a side note: I see Ken's response to the other negative review, outlaying detailed personal information about the reviewer, parts of which strike me as ethically questionable... let's see how Ken decides to treat this other negative review, and what that says about him, and what he's willing to say.)

I’ve worked with Jessica on two real estate transactions now, both as buyer and as seller. Jessica is smart and tough. She will not take BS from anyone, including her own clients. Rather than sell you an opinion, Jessica will question you in a way that forces you to articulate your opinions, which is the best preparation for making sound decisions, I think. Don’t work with Jessica if you want a yes-man. But work with her if you want a conscientious, experienced and formidable attorney!

I’ve worked with Jessica on two real estate transactions now, both as buyer and as seller. Jessica is smart and tough. She will not take BS from anyone, including her own clients. Rather than sell you an opinion, Jessica will question you in a way that forces you to articulate your opinions, which is the best preparation for making sound decisions, I think. Don’t work with Jessica if you want a yes-man. But work with her if you want a conscientious, experienced and formidable attorney!
