I wanted to share my amazing experience with Tetro Legal. Following an accident, they worked tirelessly to secure the highest compensation for me. I am extremely grateful for their support. It was nearly two years ago when I was involved in a serious car accident while visiting New York. After my release from the hospital, I knew I needed to seek legal representation as the accident was not my fault.
I reached out to several law firms in New York over the course of several days. After speaking to two other firms and feeling overwhelmed by the situation, I decided to contact Tetro Legal based on their positive reviews. I was pleasantly surprised when Beth personally answered the phone and immediately connected me with an attorney. She was the only attorney who truly made me feel like she had my best interests at heart. Beth spent over 30 minutes on the phone with me, explaining everything in great detail. Unlike the other firms that pressured me to sign with them, Beth advised me to take my time and do my research.
After taking a day to consider my options, I called back the next day, and I'm so grateful that I did. Beth recommended Jonathan as the best lawyer to handle my case, and she was absolutely right. Jonathan was incredibly tenacious and exactly the kind of advocate I needed in my corner.
A few months later, my case settled for the maximum amount available from the other party's insurance. I received the highest possible compensation, far beyond my expectations.
I am deeply thankful to Beth and Jonathan for their outstanding work. They are truly amazing and my heroes. Their support means the world to me.
Warm regards,
Mark

Noreen was on top of my case from the moment I contacted her.
She was very punctual with responding to all my calls and texts.
She explained everything that was going on, what I should expect from my situation. and answered all my questions I had regarding my case. Noreen went above and beyond for me, she truly cares. I would give her 100 stars if I could. I highly recommend her.

I am so grateful to have called Zucker Law Offices. Evan Zucker was readily available and if he wasn't at that moment he would text to let me know and call me back as soon as he could. He gave me such great advice and insight into the legal system. He explained things thoroughly and answered all of my questions. He is very upfront in a way that you want in a lawyer. I would 100% recommend his services.

Evan is a real mensch. Knows his stuff, tells it like it is, not afraid to look something up or say he doesn't know. Not afraid to tell you when you're wrong. Doesn't try to get money out of you unless it's in your best interest. Doesn't beat around the bush. Respects your time and communicates well. A lot of rare qualities in a lawyer.

I am so happy to have been able to work with Evan Zucker and his team. Evan is an intelligent and honest attorney. His team is very reliable and competent. I felt as if Evan and his team went above and beyond for me. Evan won my child support case for me against my ex-husband, as well as other things. I wish I would’ve have met him sooner. I would 100% recommend Evan.

Expert in negotiations. A true professional. I was facing a long term jail sentence. I had 7 criminal charges and didn't appear for my trial hearings. I jumped bail and with several warrants out for my arrest I was certain to do some serious jail time. But DOUGLAS TAUB made my Situation extremely manageable. He worked out a plea for my surrender. Vacating all of my warrants and allowing me to return to work Immediately. I was blessed and fortunate to have DOUGLAS and his team as my defense attorney's. Allowing me to spend the holidays with my family. I Can't believe my luck. But I believe that DOUGLAS TAUB is one of the best attorney's in ALL of NEW YORK. The results speak for themselves. Thanks for your representation. HAPPY HOLIDAYS.

Doug brought my probation violation case to the best possible outcome (under the circumstances) of continued probation. Doug kept me updated throughout with letters after every appearance including the last one. Doug is highly responsive to e-mails and phone calls. Throughout the process Doug explained everything thouroghly. He is also very caring and works as if you are his only client. I would highly recommend Doug for any criminal defense situation.

I called Albert Morse with some questions, he was very professional, spent a lot of time addressing my inquiries and referred me to attorneys who deal with my issues. I would recommend him based on that one call!

Attorney Morse provided a free consultation that lasted 30 minutes on a landlord tenant issue and let me call him back the next day. The consultation was substantive and I was impressed with the detailed information he gave. After the free consultation, I was very informed on the direction I needed to go in and I was able to take a few steps with the landlord without his assistance as my attorney. After having spoken with other attorneys he was clearly the one I wanted to hire. Other attorneys wanted hundreds of dollars to look over my case and their tone and information they gave me was cursory and did not give me confidence that they cared if I won or lost. I am confident that I have found the best attorney for my case.

Mr. Kave refused to follow requests to settle my case despite him stating in writing that he would. He was not honest with an judge about having information that he was provided in writing. Both behaviors had drastic detrimental repercussions. His response to being presented with these deficiencies were to fire him. I researched him and hired him based on reviews, but feel something may have caused a drastic decline in his capabilities because my experience was terrible. He missed a court date and regularly spend great lengths recounting his past experiences unrelated to my case verbally and via written word at a high hourly rate. He will repeat the same information via phone and text and bill you for both while forgetting what you tell him about your case. Time was further wasted listening to him bad mouthing opposing counsel and giving advice based on theory instead of fact while being found wrong on every interpretation of the law he provided. If you have risk of potential losses, don’t gamble your fate!

Not sure where my review went from 2021.
My sister and I trusted in this firm in 2019 to help us and they did the opposite. “C” would always chat to me and my sister on the phone (not always about professional stuff) saying different things and created a family conflict at a very hard time in our life.
I feel they were unprofessional as then served an outrageous bill for almost every minute that they spent in which a lot was useless in my opinion.
When someone passes away it's a very hard time and should be handled with care and empathy.
Years later and still hurts to think of what was done.

I was a client of Barry Silver and his office let me down. I tried to write a detailed review but this site flagged it but I'm not sure why. I hope they will let me at least say that I had a very bad experience after paying almost $8k to him. I ended up firing him and getting a much better deal using a free attorney. Pretty sad when a paid attorney is so bad that a client wpuld rather fire him and risk it all with a free court appointed attorney.
If you want to win your case, I advise using someone else.

Very unprofessional and in retrospect, incompetent, vindictive and vile. She will waste your time. For her fees you can go to ANY other lawyer and not have to worry about whether they are deliberately messing things up to charge you. She is lucky I did not file a complaint against her with the bar, but I still might. Lesson learned, if it looks like a beast, then it is.

We used Ms. Geronimo for a brief time, and ended up switching to a more competent, professional, responsive attorney. Ms. Geronimo will spend lots of time in conversation (and time is money!), and takes a very long time to get things done. There are much, much better attorneys in the area, whose practices are run in a much smoother, more professional manner.
