Marshall and his team were absolutely amazing! Throughout our 2 year fight following my devastating car accident in 2022, he checked in on how I was recovering from the injuries I suffered as well as asked about my family, he eased my fears and remained confident while reassuring that all will be well for us despite the long road it would take. He was right. I can’t thank Marshall enough for delivering on his word that I will be ok. That level of self assurance he consistently displayed was not only motivating, it was invaluable. I would highly recommend Marshall and his all-star caliber team to anyone. Trust me, it’ll be one of the best decisions you ever made.

The Hirshfeld and Hirshfeld law office practice was and has been incredible. Timely response, great knowledge of the law, fair and honest communication. Mr. Hirshfeld and his staff always made sure I knew what was happening throughout the entire process. They made great recommendations and always made sure I was protected. This was the first time I've ever had an attorney where I felt like I had someone in MY corner, rather than someone who was just "representing" me. If you need an attorney that really has your best interest in mind and will be guide you in the right direction, look no further than Hirshfeld and Hirshfeld.

I hired William's law office to handle my child support order, paying in full upfront. Despite waiting four weeks, the petition was never prepared, and I received no updates. After two months of unreturned calls and emails, I canceled my case and requested a full refund. Initially, they agreed, but the refund check was never received. Eight months later, I'm still trying to resolve this issue, with no solution or communication from William's office. I strongly advise against using their services.

There are few people I could write a glowing report about, but Jody is certainly worthy. Ms. Cucolo has demonstrated legal knowledge and dynamic litigation skills beyond words. My family has been through so much, yet Ms. Cucolo never rushed me off the phone, over billed me, or became unprofessional. She listened and cared. She knew who to work with in the system and if she didn't, she figured it out quickly. I am forever grateful for her time, experience and strategic defense. Thank you Jody!!

Jody handled my divorce many years ago. From my perspective, the most important aspect of the ordeal was to make sure I ended up with as much time with my daughter as possible. I wasn't going to settle for alternate weekends and end up barely knowing my daughter as most divorced dads end up. Jody got me that time. It's been over 12 years since my divorce and I am closer with my daughter than many full time married dads. Each case is different and offers different challenges as each ex-spouse and their associated attorney will put up a variety of defenses and arguments all to screw you and perpetuate the fight. Jody is a fighter when she has to be and a settler when it works in your best interest. She is a true advocate for the client - which is the whole point of what an attorney is supposed to be. I now have the luxury of a significant quantity of passed time to look back and objectively evaluate my outcome. I can honestly tell anyone who is searching for an attorney - if you are in that terrible moment in life - when you need to hire a divorce attorney because things just aren't right - Jody is THE right lawyer.

Mark embodies the quintessential sleazeball lawyer; it is astounding from where he got his degree. He is ridiculous and embarrassing since all he does is make ridiculous, false promises and believes he is above the law. I could continue but not even this brief review is worth my time.

So today I called the district attorneys office in Rockland county to complain about the Clarks county police in Rocklin stating that they will ID everyone going through the tribute on Friday the 20th just to get home which is a violation of any constitutional rights and the freedom to travel. OK the district attorneys office did not care again they did not care what I had to say about the violation and it should be noted that they are not for the people OK they are for the police and their agencies Rockland county district attorneys office does not support the people. They actually encourage the police to violate all rights and ID us just to get home because there’s a tribute. please understand that I support the police 100%, but I cannot support violation of the constitution. please understand tribute or no tribute. This is a clear violation of the peoples rights violates the constitution and people should not have to ID just to get home.

I'm a colleague and friend of Mr. Murphy, and I can attest that he is an organized and competent attorney. He actually helped me pass the bar exam by suggesting a unique approach for studying for it. I've also had an opportunity to work with him over the last several years, and he is unfailingly helpful - readily available by phone, and diligent and reliable in going to court and making a good presentation. If you are looking for a criminal defense attorney in Rockland County, I can't think of a better person for the job.

STAY AWAY! A foreclosure was entered against me although I'd received no notice from plaintiff at all. I told Lauterbach I wanted the default vacated and case dismissed. I asked him to contact the Court to let them know we were negotiating a retainer agreement. Long story short, he repeatedly presented a proposed retainer agreement which did not reflect the plan I thought we agreed on, he delayed contacting the Court, then literally hours before we were to show up in Court he sent me an email--at 7:30AM in the morning!--"I wish you luck," knowing the Judge consistently rules against anyone who shows up without an attorney, regardless of the case facts. Sure enough, I showed up to Court alone, and the Judge ruled against me (which is another lack-of-due-process/ethics problem, but that's another story). What would possess Lauterbach to behave in this manner is a complete mystery. He KNEW the harm he was causing. Not only unethical, but mentally twisted, in my view. Protect yourself!!! Pick someone else!
