Had Mike handle a speeding ticket in Queens for me, and I have to say he was very professional. The process was so easy, everything done by email, and did not even have to appear in court and was able to get a mandatory 6 point ticket dropped down!!! Wouldn't go anywhere else for any tickets I get (hopefully I don't get anymore lol).

I have been a practicing attorney in NY for 22 years, but do not handle real estate matters. When I asked three fellow attorneys who I should retain to handle my house closing, I was told that Sam Shusterhoff was the best in Westchester. I can confirm that this was true. Sam was professional, walked me through the process and was available to answer my questions and my wife’s questions at all times from when I first contacted him until we closed and took the keys to our new home. Its only been 3 days since my closing and I already recommend Sam to family and friends. I was thrilled to hear that he also does wills, estates and could help one of my clients who wishes to purchase a local moving company.

Sam helped my fiancé and I with our first home purchase in Orange County. He was very responsive, knowledgeable and very understanding since it was our first home purchase. And as stressful as the process was, Sam was very understanding and helped to keep us calm from beginning to end. I highly recommend! Thanks again for everything Sam!

Samuel Shusterhoff sets the bar for how lease attorneys should represent their clients. I retained Sam to negotiate the lease for my restaurant last year and have been using him ever since. The level of professionalism, attention to detail, and personalized service I received was unprecedented. He is exceptional at what he does and most importantly, he cares! I highly recommend that anyone in need of a multifaceted and trusted attorney reach out to Samuel Shusterhoff.

I got a ticket with a potential 5 point penalty for just holding my cell phone on the dashboard (I was not actually using it). Palumbo and Associates managed the entire process smoothly (I didn't have to do anything) and delayed the hearing for almost one year. At the end of the day, after pleading "Not Guilty", they were able at the hearing to get the ticket dismissed and I was found not guilty. I couldn't think about a better outcome. Thank you, Palumbo and Associates! I hope not to need their services again... but, if something should happen, they will be the first Law Office I will call!

Fran is a detail-oriented and outstanding professional who I have known for 15 years and over the course of two family-related legal situations. I have had the ability to see how she works in relation to her colleagues and I have never ceased to be impressed by her abilities, intelligence and dedication to excellence. She has impressed me on every occasion. I also find Fran to be an extraordinary and kind human being. This is never lost in her work. I would recommend her without reservation.

As Fran's client, I found her to always conduct herself with professionalism and calm in the midst of a stressful time. She has the ability to focus on achieving the end result desired, and provided the guidance to get me there. I am very satisfied and would highly recommend her to others going through a divorce or child support issue.

I have known Frances since 2002 when I contacted her to assist me with my divorce. Since then, she has helped me with related issues including child support. I have found her to be extremely knowledgeable, friendly and responsive. In addition, she has common sense and has kept me focused on the important matters at hand, even in the midst of my own emotional turmoil. Time has proven, for me, that her decisions on some critical issues (such as what to pursue and what to drop) were good ones. Since the beginning of my relationship with her, she has provided me with peace of mind and the assurance that all will be well... which it is!

Mr. Verna has been a Competent Attorney who was able to complete tasks that took other lawyers years to complete. On May 24, 2022, I retained Mr. Verna's Services to represent my Company on a Copyright Infringement case and an Action in Paris, France with our Company having Jurisdiction and Governing Law in New York, USA. In the Span of less than one year, Mr. Verna managed to File a Summons and Complaint in US Federal Court and Served (put on notice) Several Companies in Paris, France which require service to be done through the "Hague." This resulted in Complete Service and Accomplishment under French Law. The Case is Currently on the Calander with the United States Federal Court. Mr. Verna was effective and efficient at a fraction of the Cost I have paid other lawyers to Represent me in Similar Court Cases Internationally (London, Rome, etc.) I give Mr. Verna a "5 Star Review" and I am 100% satisfied. I would Highly Recommend Him. Sincerely, Alfredo Leone

The team at Verna Law was a first call for me when I was in-house and faced with trademark issues. I have referred many clients over to Anthony over the years for his wise counsel on intellectual property issues.

Barbara Cummings is unfailingly professional and dedicated to the swift, equitable conclusion of separation/divorce matters. After reading a review that claims she allegedly "churned" client relationship, I found no evidence of such. In fact, she was willing to inform opposing counsel of procedural protocols about which said counsel was uniformed such that matters would resolve more quickly. I give her the strongest, unqualified recommendation.

Barbara kept preventing settlements that could have ended my case in half the time and cost a fraction of what it finally cost. She is the typical divorce lawyer that thrives on confrontation and keeps the two parties fighting until their money runs out. The strategy was to make the other side spend so much and get so aggravated that they would settle. That didn't work and just made it painfully expensive for both of us. We lost, the lawyers won.

We provided Joan every document needed for the divorce and time after time, she would request the same documents over and over and over because she did not keep a record. This wasted time and money as she would ask for more money for the SAME documents we would send her repeatedly. The best part was that she didn’t communicate with the other party’s divorce lawyer causing us to miss court dates, and important documents. She would claim that she didn’t “receive” messages or emails about this…. everything has a time stamp Joan so Get your act together. In the end Joan proved to be a nasty lawyer and rude because she couldn’t accept responsibility that she wasted years to complete a divorce that had simple requests. If you’re looking for a divorce lawyer, run the other way. She’s horrible and not worth the time. She’s also rude because when visiting her office she would be on Facebook and neglect your concerns. She even admitted she took the case because she has to “cater” to lower income households. So she basically didn’t care to begin with. If we would’ve known she was a money hungry gold digger we would’ve never done business with her. Thanks for nothing.

I hired her for a Real Estate matter to draft a seller's Contract she totally didn't know what she was doing so had the buyer's attorney write the contract. This is highly unethical behavior. She never provided any of the closing documents after the close and paid herself way above market rate with out having a letter of representation to justify her new high rate. This was the most horrific legal experience I have ever had in my entire life. I have sold three properties and this was the most unprofessional experience of the all.

I engaged Nirmala in december 2013 to apply for an E2 visa. We put together the package to send to the UK immigration, which took just over 6 weeks. This cost me $6000. I have heard NOTHING since. It's been over a year. Nirmala intermittently responds to me seemingly at her leisure. A friend got the same thing done in two weeks I am now using her lawyer, which would be great if nirmala would send over our filed docs to him. I strongly advise against working with Nirmala. She is unprofessional, unresponsive and has cost me $6000 for NOTHING. I have left messages and emails for days.

How to Check the Credibility of a Lawyer

  1. Verify Their License:
    Check with your state's bar association to confirm the lawyer is licensed and in good standing.

    Read reviews on legal directories like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to gauge client satisfaction.

    Membership in professional organizations or specialty bar associations can indicate a commitment to their field.
  6. Awards and Recognitions:
    Honors from reputable organizations reflect expertise and a positive reputation.
  7. Consultation Assessment:
    Use the initial consultation to evaluate their communication skills, responsiveness, and willingness to address your concerns.
  8. Ask for References:
    A credible lawyer should be willing to provide references from past clients.

  1. Relevant Documents:
    Bring all documents related to your case, such as contracts, correspondence, legal notices, court papers, or evidence.
