I cannot say enough positive things about Jeff Rich and his team! Jeff is an amazingly brilliant attorney that not only empathizes with his clients, but advocates for them in an unwavering way.
I suffered an unexpected injury that completely changed my life. When this happened, I truly did not know where to turn. Once I got connected with Jeff, the new turmoil I was undergoing in my life did not seem quite as intimidating because I immediately felt confident that Jeff would advocate for me in a way I couldn't advocate for myself. Jeff is kind, patient, has amazing communication skills, and is unbelievably knowledgeable. On top of that, he is determined in the best way when it comes to supporting his clients. Not only did he support me from a legal perspective, but he was always the first person to make recommendations or provide me with resources to help me manage my personal issues with pain and mental health during this extremely difficult time. Any time I needed Jeff's guidance, he was there, no matter the time of day.
I worked with Jeff for a few years, and I never once questioned his judgment. I continuously felt confident that he'd guide me in the right direction, and that is exactly what he did. Although I will always have this injury, Jeff truly made everything surrounding my injury less intimidating and more manageable. I am forever grateful for Jeff's guidance and advocacy, and I would recommend Jeff and his firm to anyone without hesitation. Rich and Rich truly goes unmatched!
Thank you, Jeff! I will never truly be able to put my appreciation into words for all your hard work, advocacy, kindness, guidance, and unwavering loyalty.

Michael was referred to me by my cousins good friend. He is absolutely hands down the most down to earth attorney you'll find these days. He never ignores my calls. He doesn't bill you for tiny miniscule things like all the other lawyers in town. He makes you feel as though he's your personal in house attorney.

John took care of my will, my medical proxy, my power of attorney, and all my end of life requests. He was concerned that I make very informed decisions and to that end he provided detailed information in response to my questions. He even shared his knowledge and experience about issues that I didn't know enough to ask questions about. He was flexible about timing and very easy to work with. I have hired him to be my attorney going forward and highly recommend him.

Excellent Work ! After a high end law firm previously failed to obtain results and most wouldn't take the case due to it's difficulty and likeliness of poor results due to complications regarding insurance law or precedent ... Mitchell j Winn
succeded in winning our case and basically leaving behind hopes in creating new case law in the lower courts that challenges delivery and proof of loss requirements . The big insurance companies can be evil and deny, deny ,deny. When insurance companies don't want to pay they look for technicalities or loopholes to deny . If you need an attorney that can deal with obstacles and difficult insurance cases he's your guy . Thank you Mitchell Winn...

This woman does NOT have the child’s best interest at heart. She takes the easy way out. Does not read reports from doctors or schools ( or if she does ignores the advice of professionals) and in fact does damage to the child and family.

A family member and I consulted with Shalom Schwartz about a conflict we were having with another attorney. Schwartz then referred us to Michael B. Schulman, Melville, NY. (Schulman endorses Schwartz on both Avvo and Schwartz’s LinkedIn profile: “I have worked with Shalom on various projects over the last 5 years.” So there is more than a casual familiarity.)
Once we hired Schulman, he proceeded directly in an attempt to defraud us out of many thousands of dollars. It took a 3-year fight (on our own) to recover more than half of what he’d taken.
After this bitter experience, we wrote to Schwartz to inform him of the outcome from his referral. We also told him of our discovery that Schulman has a long history of legal malpractice, was sanctioned by the NY Bar and FL Bar in the 1980s, and has been personally embroiled in numerous civil disputes related to professional misconduct since at least 2003.
We believe that, at best, Schwartz was negligent (lack of due diligence) in his referral; at worst, complicit with Schulman; and we stated that to him in our emailed letter.
After a long wait, we have received NO reply from Schwartz, no explanation, no response to the question: “What responsibility do you take (for this 'negligent referral,' to use the legal term)?”
We think Schwartz's judgment -- if not his honesty -- is sufficiently in doubt to warrant this review.

Being an attorney, he is very unprofessional and very rude. Whenever a message is left at his office, he takes forever or sometimes never to return your calls. I would never recommend him to anyone.
