Renee handled a long standing issue I had with the Town of North Hempstead. What took me almost a year to complete, took her just a few court visits. She was extremely knowledgeable, professional, patient and most importantly for me, effective. Renee kept me informed throughout the process and saw it all the way through to the end. I was extremely happy with my outcome, as well as her service and her ownership of my issue. My business is in a much better place and I couldn't have done it without her assistance.

Renee helped my husband and I to gain residency, and at first I was not sure about her, but after consultation I realized we could not have picked a better lawyer. She knew exactly what she was doing and was on the ball with our case. I would recommend her to anyone. Thanks Renee, we really appreciate all you've done for us.

This attorney , Mr Penn saved me one thousand bucks at my home closing because of his knowledge and experience of real estate law. I don't trust hired guns but this guy knows his stuff ,and you want him on your side.
He is honest and explains everything that's going on.He is very experienced and holds his own opposing the large white shoe firms.
I have experience with lawyers since my son graduated 10 years ago from Georgetown Law Center.He works in the DC area .

I consulted Attorney Victoria Brown Douglas on 2 separate cases for friends who had felony charges against them. I watched her in and out of court working professionally and diligently to get them justice.
She is a hardworking lawyer on the cases of her clients. She treats them with dignity and respect, with an extremely caring heart. Lawyer Victoria is also very knowledgeable and competent in the criminal justice system and with a broad range of judicial experience. I would recommend her services to anyone seeking an excellent Attorney.

Brian was very helpful when my partner and I got into an accident. He not only guided us through the legal proceedings of the case, but he assisted in referring me to a convenient physical therapist in my area. Accidents aren't a good time for anyone, but he made sure to contact us and make sure to keep us updated on how everything was moving along.

From the beginning, they showed genuine concern and work with me. They answered all my questions and addressed my worries. They were always working to get me a decent settlement. Brian, Adam and Tom are the best. I want to thank them and their team for all their help. To them it's not business because they really showed they care.

I called to get some legal advice. Once the attorney advised "no money in family cases" the call was cut short with no legal advice at all. It just had a very cold feel to the call and if a law firm is dealing with victims they should be more self aware of their tone and handling. I only gave it a 2 star because the website was helpful with some information. But the customer experience from the first call with the front desk to Bryan was not a great experience at all. Rushed, cut short.

If you are looking for a lawyer who combines expertise, professionalism, and genuine care for their clients, look no further. I am extremely grateful for Seth Rosenfeld and would recommend him to anyone in need of legal services.
In addition, I have to mention Seth Rosenfeld’s secretary, Teresa, who is truly one of a kind. She’s always professional, patient, happy, and caring. Teresa consistently goes above and beyond to assist in every way possible, making the entire process so much smoother and more manageable. Her warm and helpful attitude makes a world of difference, and she’s a true asset to the team.

Lisa you replied to my review and again your not forthcoming with the truth. On January last year I asked for my divorce to be withdrawn from any court proceedings. You are still pursuing this matter one year later. You didn’t have to pursue asking the court for you to be removed as my attorney when you were asked to withdraw the case in its entirety.Your only trying to gain additional fees and I’m not the only client who has been
Bamboozled by you. It’s your pattern! Any potential clients need to read all of your reviews before considering your representation. However, I confided in Legal shield who I pay for their services every month to refer an upstanding divorce attorney. However they referred you. You never reached out to me to try to resolve this matter. You actually were very disrespectful when I informed you of my reconciliation with my husband and referred to me by my Maiden name. Your firm was not supportive or knowledgeable of my case and wasted a lot of time. When I asked to be present in court through zoom I was purposely not informed. Documents needed to be amended because of your firms incompetence at my expense. In a pandemic without any court appearances and without any participation from my husband your firm is trying to charge me 10,000 dollars! I have the emails regarding all of my concerns and issues since the beginning when Your firm was hired. I also have the request for a breakdown on my bills because the very first bill was inflated and you agreed to credit it and the revised bill was never sent.Your unprofessional and I have all the other people who have lost thousands to your firm. Run and properly do your homework before you hire Lisa as your divorce attorney!

Lisa D’Agostino served as my lawyer for two separate legal matters. Having a lawyer that you truly trust, and that you know has your best interest in mind is priceless. From the first time I sat down with her, Mrs. D’Agostino was up front and honest. She explained her role, expectations, cost, and the process set by step. She didn’t make any promises that she couldn’t deliver. If you have worked with a lawyer before, you know that they are busy and don’t always get back to you as quickly as you might like. This was definitely not the case with Mrs. D’Agostino. She was always responsive to my emails and phone calls. If she couldn’t speak to me right away, she let me know when she would be available to talk. Mrs. D’Agostino always made sure that I was prepared before court, she followed up with me after court, and most importantly, she did her homework. She put my mind at ease if I was uncomfortable or worried about a situation. Before Mrs. D’Agostino was recommended to me, I unfortunately retained a different lawyer. I truly wish I would have found Mrs. D’Agostino first. Her communication style, expertise, compassion, efficiency, and timely manner in which she handled things truly made the process of going through a legal situation less stressful. I hope to never have to retain a lawyer again, but if I do, I would definitely go with Mrs. D’Agostino.

Please run for your life. This law firm does not care about your case or how they can really help you. I was recommended by Legal shield and did not research this law firm. This law firm has caused me mental distress and financial losses. This matter has been a complete nightmare. This firm only care's about money. I requested my case to be withdrawn/dismissed from court in January 2021 because me and my husband were reconciling. After signing documents for the case to be withdrawn in January this lawyer proceeded without my knowledge or consent to continue adding additional fees. This lawyer disregarded my request and proceeded to want my husband to sign documents in order to withdraw the case. This lawyer than filed a motion to be released from the case instead of doing what was instructed which was to withdrawn the case in its entirety because we were not pursuing with the divorce. This matter is yet not resolved because Lisa refused to follow my instruction. Before you hire this attorney, please look up her reviews on Yelp this is her Pattern!

I was purchasing a home on Rosedale she wanted money up front a check payable to her for$ 1,800. So I made it out to her, we were dealing with these people since November 2012 towards the end she informs me she has some information that the owner wants to try to buy his wife out so she doubts we are closing. To make a long story short we never closed now I am questioning whether she was worth 1,800 dollars.

Ms. Hannam lacks the basic level of customer service/professionalism one would expect from such a high priced lawyer. I retained Ms. Hannam's services to prepare a residential lease. After receiving payment she did not provide a lease suitable for use with the tenant, forcing me to seek the services of another lawyer or pay her another $1000 for another lease for the same apartment. Ms. Hannam does not believe in negotiating, it is her way or no way in terms of time frame, mode of communication and in my case, product delivered. Ms. Hannam presents well initially but in due time her unprofessional way of dealing with people shows itself but it is too late.
