I’m so grateful to have found Larry. He secured us a 7 figure settlement when no other lawyer would even take our case. It was an extremely sensitive and difficult matter to discuss but he helped us through it with great compassion. I’m so grateful for his expertise and professionalism. And I don’t think anyone could have fought harder for us

I recently had the experience of working with Larry on a medical malpractice case, and I must say, he exceeded all my expectations. Finding a good lawyer can be daunting, but Larry made the process much more manageable. One of the things I appreciated most about Larry was his communication. He was always available to answer my questions, no matter how small, and he made sure I understood each step of the legal process. Larry was able to break down complex legal and medical jargon into terms I could understand. His professionalism in handling my case was evident from the start. He was thorough in his investigation and left no stone unturned. He also understood the emotional and physical toll the situation had taken on me and was incredibly supportive throughout the process. I highly recommend this attorney!

When my dad passed away unexpectedly due to a wrongful death. I was so lost and my heart felt so heavy and painful. I kept on saying to myself that my dad will still be alive if this is not a wrongful death. Then I decided to go online to search and browse for malpractice attorneys to fight for justice. I have attorneys turned me away or by speaking to them on the phone, they make me feel very uncomfortable and more lost. Finally and luckily I found Mr. Larry Deutsch, just by talking to him on the phone for the first time, he made me feel so comfortable and understand what we be going on for a wrongful death case. Mr. Deutsch was knowledgeable, honest, trustworthy, courteous, patient, kind and most importantly, transparent and managed our expectations. When we had questions, he will made sure himself available to answer in person or over the phone. He kept my family and I informed and understand through the entire process. It was a long process, but Mr. Deutsch's work helped us obtain justice for my dad’s wrongful death and a settlement. On behalf of my family, I will highly recommend Mr. Deutsch. Also Mr. Deutsch and his office were a pleasure to deal with during an overwhelming process. Thank you for your service and I would recommend him highly.

At work, driving the company car, I collided with a wall at about ten miles per hour as I looked down at google maps to check my routing. The old and loose stone wall collapsed and crumbled on impact. I waited for two hours on the scene for the homeowner, rang the bell, googled them, found their number, called them. Nothing. The accident took place near the Scarsdale Public Library and my supervisor drove from our office in Eastchester to assess the situation. Given that we expected no contact with the residents, my supervisor and I deemed it reasonable that I could visit the library to use the lavatory. Remarkably, as I entered the library parking lot, my supervisor called to bring me back to the scene of the accident. The police had arrived. The homeowners were present. Insurance covered the wall but I was issued a summons for leaving the scene of an accident. Joe and Barbara were the first people I called. I’ve been in the area long enough to know who to go to in Scarsdale when I’m in hot water. They argued my case and won it. No points. I paid a parking ticket. Thank you Joseph Villanueva and Barbara B for knowing how to handle a crisis and doing so with grace and humanity.

I really don’t have enough good things to say about working with Joseph and his firm. I got a speeding ticket and hired Joseph’s firm because I couldn’t attend on my court date and the entire process just made me anxious. He was able to plead me down to just a fine with zero pints! Do not hesitate to hire them! The process was easy, smooth, and worth every penny..

I came to Kym through a referral, and all of the great things I heard about her couldn’t have been more true. Kym was able to help me navigate a situation regarding lack of payment for work that I had rendered for another business. Kym explained all of my options thoroughly and at a pace that allowed me to fully comprehend the situation from a legal perspective. When dealing with the other party’s attorney, the professionalism she exhibited was truly remarkable. Multiple situations arose where the other attorney was out of line, and instead of becoming frustrated and “stooping to their level,” Kym remained calm and collected and took care of business as a professional. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Kym’s services to anyone, and I look forward to continuing to work with her in the future for all of my business needs.

During our initial phone consult, we were on the phone for over an hour like we had known each other for years. She made me feel comfortable and explained what I needed in detail without it seeming overwhelming which so much of starting a small business is.

At first I was very worried that there was no hope for my case or situation. But without fail John has been there every step of the way with me easing my anxiety and reassuring me that he’ll get the best outcome. He’s kind and patient and has taken his time to explain every detail of the case and the defense. He even had a meeting with family members to dismiss their worry. He was very caring and took my case seriously and although I doubted that the case could get dismissed he made that happen. My case was completely dismissed and I could not be more grateful for the work and time Mr. Cromwell has put into this. I had a DUI case that was dismissed. If your looking for a great lawyer to do what’s in your best interest always this is the guy.

After being arrest for a criminal offense and finding myself in a situation that could effect my entire future, I went ahead with the grueling task of having to find legal representation. I went through a few consultations with other lawyers but I felt extremely confident and at ease with Mr. Cromwell throughout the whole process of my case. He keeps a very calm and kind demeanor. This truly helped with my level of stress and anxiety I was going through. Never once did I feel as if he was judging me. He answered my text and calls in a very timely manner and was always available to answer any questions I had. While in court I can see the other attorneys in the room come to him to seek his advice. He got me the best possible outcome and he gave me back my life!! For which I am truly grateful. I recommend John M. Cromwell to anyone that needs a knowledgeable and professional criminal attorney that gets the job done. Thank you John!

We couldn't have asked for a more professional and helpful attorney. As first-time home buyers, my wife and I were stunned and overwhelmed by all of the legal steps and administrative hurdles involved in getting an accepted offer and then closing. Allyson guided us through each step and did a lot of hand-holding along the way. She was incredibly responsive - to calls, emails, texts, etc. - and was happy to answer even the most basic questions that came to mind. Even when we were slammed with work and unable to respond quickly to her inquiries, she managed to keep the ball rolling. Where she really shined, though, was during the actual closing. She was by far the most knowledgeable, professional, and well-prepared person in the room and her attention to detail (which my wife is particularly attuned to) was amazing. Buying a home is an emotional process, but it made SUCH a difference to have someone in our corner that we could trust 100% and that we truly enjoyed working with.

Allyson did an excellent job at stewarding us through the purchase of our first home. Along the way we faced challenges in navigating an extensive portfolio of COIs due to various extensions and renovations that had been conducted on the property by the sellers over a period of 20-30 years. In addition to explaining all of the contractual, title, closing and escrow considerations associated with the real estate transaction, Allyson helped us gain comfort with the legalities of all renovations and extensions on the property as well as the status of all permits. Allyson delivered significant value during the purchase of our home and I would recommend her to others.

Ben provided consistent and timely updates, minimizing my involvement on a day to day basis so I could remain focused on my own career. Relying on his depth of experience, Ben shoots straight in relation to predicted outcomes. He respected and listened to my input when required putting me at ease in making informed decisions along the way. Hats off to Ben and his staff for a job well done!

Ben Babcock was part of a team that represented me in a case that lasted almost a year. The case was resolved very satisfactorily -- due in no small part to the smart and diligent way in which Ben researched the case and then assembled and managed the relevant documentation. Ben asked me careful questions and listened, if possible, even more carefully to my answers. In his calm and thoughtful manner, Ben took me through some very difficult material--clarifying and substantiating facts of the case from my point of view and finding corroborating information that I would not have imagined possible to discover. I was very impressed.and could not have been more pleased with the work he did.

I would highly recommend her to anyone. She is so attentive and assertive in what she does and takes her job very serious. During my custody case, my son was being majorly abused being in the company of his mother and her associates. The home was a very negative environment and toxic to my son and the custody case was only brought about because of his constant running away from home and ending up at my doorstep. I had no experience in the transitional phase of obtaining custody but Mrs. Mandel made it so easy for me. So easy that on the first court appearance Veronica was so prepared and was so determined, I got temporary custody of my son on the first go!! As a dad I didn't think it was possible that quickly. It brought me to tears. She even took the time out to make calls whether it was 4 in the afternoon or 10, 11, 0r 12 midnight to check up on me and make sure everything was ok with me and my sons transition. She has a beautiful soul and never backed down to anything in court that was thrown at her. I felt so protected by her will to make sure my son remained in safe environment. She made sure I knew my court dates, made sure i brought the proper documents to court and never ever made me feel I was alone in this fight. My son had it rough in the beginning but after her advice to seek therapy for him, 5 years later he's doing extremely well. I can't thank her enough for what type of impact she's had on me and my son's life. She's a game changer and I love her to death!!!! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!!!

Leslie represented us for a very complicated sale of our Co-op. The Co-op's attorney is notoriously difficult, going radio silent for weeks and then popping up with a last-minute need. Leslie stayed on top of them and helped make sure we handled any needs immediately to prevent the process from being delayed any further. She helped mitigate the headaches of the process extremely well. There was even an 11th hour issue with the co-op's attorney not having any checks left at the time of our closing, and she worked with the buyer's attorney to resolve the issue without impacting us further. I could not recommend her more highly and without any reservations. You will not be disappointed using Leslie and her office.

Leslie helped my husband and I with our closing and even afterward when we had continued issues with the seller. She was knowledgeable, friendly, patient, communicative, and went above and beyond after the closing to make sure all of the issues we had with the seller and seller’s attorney were resolved. My sister and her husband used her as well and were equally as impressed. I can’t recommend her enough and would absolutely use her again!!

Leslie helped us throughout the real estate purchase process, from offer through closing, and even post-closing. She added important provisions to our contract. She was also a guiding hand to us throughout the whole process. Our transaction involved title issues and she navigated all of them skillfully. Leslie was so thorough and helpful. We highly recommend her for any real property transactions in the Westchester area. Our transaction was successful as a direct result of all her hard work. She is the ideal real estate attorney.

I’m so grateful to have found Larry. He secured us a 7 figure settlement when no other lawyer would even take our case. It was an extremely sensitive and difficult matter to discuss but he helped us through it with great compassion. I’m so grateful for his expertise and professionalism. And I don’t think anyone could have fought harder for us
