Rebecca Supple Mensch is very incompetent. Low IQ, very poor judgment. You can use her if you are really in the wrong, she could not tell.

I was one of 3 equal partners in a horse farm/real estate LLC; unfortunately the other two were grifters and in many deliberate ways sabotaged the corporation, They submitted an unsigned by me agreement to buy out one of the partners who was a lawyer who, acting pro-se while receiving SSD due to incapacity to practice law, sued me to buy him out despite the fact that the second suit began after the time limited contract had run out. He placed a lien on my house. Despite the Appellate Division's decision that the Supreme Court Justice had no legal rationale to order me to pay, (as the deep pocket), who never signed the time limited buy out; the lawyer partner proceeded with his dissolution cause of action. When the dissolution of the LLC case was resumed, Ms. Weigert overcharged me to "think about" my case and review almost every document in this large file despite my telling her the facts to focus on for the action brought by the attorney partner to dissolve the LLC. I separated the documents that were necessary to review and wrote a history of the lawyer and horse trainer grifter partners and what they had done and how much money they cheated me out of and how they worked to sabotage the LLC including not paying their share of the mortgage payments nor fixing the rate; non- payment of taxes and a phoney $90,000 construction agreement that the trainer illegally signed; which all contributed to the land being forclosed on. The operating agreement of the LLC stated that all 3 partners had to agree on anything over $2500 spent. The lawyer partner was to act as the business officer. Ms. Weigert did nothing to work out the financial losses that these grifters caused me and only agreed to dissolve the LLC. She also "advised" me not to appear in Court do as not to get involved in any arguments with the other two. Even with being grossly overcharged for unprovable and obscure "work" on the case and incorrect information, (the name and address of the person who bought the forclosed property at auction after the construction company signers of the phony work order- lien, could not afford to buy it and who, in addition, removed all the good farmland topsoil and did not reimburse the LLC, I still have not received any justice in this travesty and probably never will.

Miriam Citro is the most unprofessional, rude and condescending person I have EVER spoken to in my life . I was yelled at by her , and she rudely hung up the phone on. Like if I was being prosecuted, but people is was the other way around . I felt like I was victimize twice by the person and Miriam Citro who is there “supposedly” to do the right thing for the plaintiff . Guess we on our own in Wappingers . Is not what’s right is who knows who in this town and court system .

Incredibly rude, unprofessional, & incompetent worker Josephine kept speaking loudly over me, repeatedly calling me the wrong name. She wouldn't listen to me AT ALL & the reason I was calling. This call was a waste of time. She didn't listen to a single word I said how could she being so loud, obnoxious & speaking over me. I just called for an update on a case involving my child & to provide them with some info regarding the case that might be useful to them. I felt very judged & attacked from the moment she picked up the line. There to help?? I think not. I've worked in offices before & if I spoke to pple like that I'd be fired immediately. I hope this woman does not work directly with victims of crimes that's incredibly frightening to think so.

Incredibly rude, unprofessional, & incompetent worker Josephine kept speaking loudly over me, repeatedly calling me the wrong name. She wouldn't listen to me AT ALL & the reason I was calling. This call was a waste of time. She didn't listen to a single word I said how could she being so loud, obnoxious & speaking over me. I just called for an update on a case involving my child & to provide them with some info regarding the case that might be useful to them. I felt very judged & attacked from the moment she picked up the line. There to help?? I think not. I've worked in offices before & if I spoke to pple like that I'd be fired immediately. I hope this woman does not work directly with victims of crimes that's incredibly frightening to think so.
