Ben worked on one of my family members child custody case and domestic violence and he was awesome!! We had been through 2 attorneys and spend thousands of dollars with the previous attorneys and no results they took the money and did nothing. Ben showed up and was God send in a very difficult time which got messy with other attorneys . Definitely would recommend Mr. Haber he is hardworking, and Fights hard for his clients. Don’t waste your money and time with other attorneys Ben delivers results!!

He is the most honest respected attorney in Staten Island . MOST ATTORNEYS. PROLONG AND ADD FRIVOLOUS MOTIONS. NOT MR. HABER. I can. Tell you what attorneys to avoid since I battled a 10 year Divorce .

Mr Haber handled my custody case and delivered on every count. His manner in the courtroom was successful and forthright in presenting the evidence. Additionally, his staff was
readily available to always assist in a speedy and efficient manner. He is an honest and competent individual who delivers not on “over-promise” but on the base of presenting hard facts.

I am writing to wholeheartedly recommend my divorce lawyer, Adelola. If you are looking for a trusted, reliable, and confident attorney to guide you through one of the most challenging times of your life, she is the one you need.
Adelola not only provided me with expert legal advice, but she also helped me reclaim my dignity and joy for life. She was there for me when I needed her most, and I have no doubt she will be there for you too. With her by your side, your worries are over.
Kency,

I cannot say enough great things about Ms. Dow and her incredible team. From start to finish, they have been nothing but professional, knowledgeable, and truly dedicated to my case. Their attention to detail, expertise, and commitment to achieving the best possible outcome have been outstanding.
I’ve worked with top attorneys in the past for other legal matters, but I can confidently say that I wish I had Ms. Dow representing me from the very beginning. Had I know about Ms.Dow during my divorce, I am certain I wouldn’t have had to return to court. She and her team approach every aspect of the case with precision and care, ensuring no stone is left unturned.
If you’re looking for an attorney who truly fights for you, communicates effectively, and delivers results, look no further than Ms. Dow. I highly recommend her and her team to anyone in need of exceptional legal representation.
Thank you, Ms. Dow, for everything you and your team have done!.

Mr Camporeale helped us through a difficult time after my mother had passed away suddenly with no will. We were lost and had no idea what to do and Mr Camporeale successfully helped us navigate the probate process and administrative distribution of her estate.

My experience with this firm was great! My contact was Mr. Antonelli. He was always available even after hours or on weekends and explained how the medical was going to be paid, how the claim against the car that hit me was filed, and the limits of that policy . He meticulously explained what supplemental under insurance was and how it worked. Needless to say, my case was settled with the full limits of the policies. I highly recommend this firm. The staff was polite and terrific.

I cannot recommend Jon Ryan D’Agostino and his team enough! I experienced a traumatic accident where I tore ligaments and nerves in my right hand due to a local establishment's negligence. As a right-handed film and video editor based in NYC, this injury was devastating—not only to my career but also to my livelihood. I faced months of lost wages and the heartbreaking uncertainty of whether I’d be able to edit again.
To make matters even more stressful, I’m a single parent with a teenage daughter who’s preparing for college. The stakes couldn’t have been higher.
Thanks to Jon Ryan D’Agostino’s exceptional legal expertise, we won the case. His dedication, professionalism, and understanding of my situation gave me hope during a very dark time. I’m thrilled to share that I’m back to editing again and can now focus on the future with confidence.
Choosing D’Agostino and Associates was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. If you’re looking for a compassionate and skilled attorney, look no further. Thank you, Jon Ryan and the entire team, for your incredible support and guidance!

Para legal handling my case was extremely rude and anything but helpful. Please ask for someone other than her. She is a roadblock to getting help within this company. If her bosses only knew what she does to hinder the help of their clients. Do yourself a favor and deal with someone other than Laura. She thinks she is a lawyer and cuts you off without listening to your concerns. Anyone there would be a be help than her.

This attorney has 5 stars on most of his reviews because he tells clients he will reduce your bill by $500.00, if you write a good review of him on google to get more business. Guess what? After your 5 star review has posted, he charges You, the Client, triple. Stay far away!

I retained Mr. File to represent me in my divorce. At that time I had been married for over 30 years and was going through a very difficult period in my life. My husband had abandoned me and I felt I was going to be left with nothing. When I first consulted with Mr. File, he reassured me put my mind at ease. I left his office feeling confident that I was in good hands. He fought diligently to get me what I deserved and was rightfully entitled to - believe me it wasn't easy - my ex-husband wanted to leave me high and dry. I am grateful to Mr. File for giving me the courage to keep fighting for what I deserved, even when I wanted to just give in. I would recommend him highly.

Jay Meyers was referred to me by another bankruptcy lawyer who did not want to take on my case (too complicated, of course). Jay came very highly recommended.
No one ever plans to get into financial problems and become financially desperate but life happens. Those who experience this know that it is both physically and mentally crippling - the amount of stress can become unbearable. It really feels like the end of the world.
Never in a million years did I think I would ever have to file for bankruptcy but if I was ever going to file for bankruptcy boy am I glad that Jay was my lawyer. He really is the whole package! Jay has over 30 years of experience in his field, is fairly priced, and well-intentioned. I am one of those people that has an annoying amount of questions because I need to understand what and why I am doing things - Jay was always available to answer my many questions, always patient with me, explained everything to me in a way that simplified complicated things, and never made me feel like I was a burden. More importantly, he really helped me in my path to psychological recovery - I went from feeling like a failure (I felt like I failed my wife and kids), feeling embarrassed of myself, and from a nervous wreck to someone who was still struggling financially but was mentally healthier. Jay gave me reassurance and he also gave me hope! He helped me understand that there is a life past all of this and that he would help me get to a better place. AND HE DID!
Before I share the results of my case below, please don't kid yourselves. Yes - at the end of the day the results are what everyone remembers but let me tell you the journey to the results is equally as important. Jay's confidence, knowledge and experience with other clients really shows - he helped me keep it together throughout this extremely challenging process and reassured me along every step of the way. Jay helped me believe that everything was going to be okay. Think of Jay as the bankruptcy doctor - he'll save your financial life and do so with a 5-star bedside manner.
Thanks to Jay's experience, knowledge, and dedication the results of my case are better than I ever hoped for! I will forever be grateful to Jay for turning a dark, stressful and scary situation into an future with hope and opportunity for better. Jay helped me leave my mistakes behind me and start off with a clean slate to do right by my family and myself.
I hope that you never find yourselves in a situation to require Jay's services but in the case that you do HAVE ZERO DOUBT that Jay is the man you want by your side. He is worth every penny and more!!!

I feel so free and relieved, as if a heavy weight has been lifted off my shoulders. In my custody matter, I almost had to go to trial. I was ready and confident that we would win. My lawyer prepared me thoroughly, and I was fully prepared for the trial. Despite ongoing settlement discussions, it seemed unlikely that we would reach an agreement. However, on the day of the trial, the lawyers continued negotiating in the courtroom. I was sincerely hoping for a settlement.
Finally, after some intense negotiations, we were able to reach an agreement and settle the case. This resolution brings an overwhelming sense of peace and joy, especially considering this matter has been a lingering burden for so long. To finally have closure on an issue that has been dragging on for years feels incredibly liberating. The stress and anxiety that have been a constant presence in my life are now replaced with a profound sense of relief and newfound freedom. It's a tremendous relief to see this long-standing issue finally resolved.
Rosa, I want to express my deepest gratitude for your exceptional work and unwavering support throughout my custody case. Your thorough preparation and confidence gave me the assurance I needed as we faced the possibility of going to trial. Your dedication and expertise were evident every step of the way.
Your persistence in negotiating a settlement on the day of the trial was truly remarkable. Thanks to your efforts, we were able to reach an agreement that brings immense relief and a sense of closure to a matter that has weighed heavily on me for so long. The peace and freedom I now feel are beyond words.
Thank you once again for your hard work, professionalism, and compassion. I am incredibly grateful to have had you as my lawyer during this challenging time.
Sincerely,
Ismael

I had a custody issue with my son's father and showed up to court with no lawyer. The court assigned Ms. Tragni to me and as soon as she showed up she helped me understand the case and helped me out with all of my questions. She was available for me anytime through call, email or text.
She helped me win the case for residential custody and joint custody that works for both of us.

Because of the professionalism dedication and hard work of Valerie Camacho I have custody of my children. Before I hired Valerie I met with quite a few attorneys and none of them gave me the confidence I needed for an uphill battle as a dad trying to get custody after a divorce case. Phone calls and emails were always returned ASAP. If you are looking for someone who actually cares about you and your case Valerie is the one.

Ralph and Steve are both attentive, professional and experts at what they do - I used Ralph in the closing of selling my house and had such an amazing experience that I used him AGAIN when I recently purchased my new home. Ralph is truly amazing - he was always easy to access and quick to speak to directly, went up and beyond to help me choose between mortgage brokers, explained everything in detail and looked over paperwork for me that I did not understand. My closings were so easy and stress free. Ralph always gave me his undivided attention and I truly felt like I was his only client when he was speaking to me - he never rushed me off the phone and encouraged me to ask questions. Ralph is professional yet personable - something you don't find in lawyers. My husband and I trusted Ralph and because of that, we will be using him AGAIN to draw up papers for our estate planning.

Very personable and easy to talk to. Takes time to answer all your questions. Helped me with an employment issue also help me with a case not involving employment law. For over a year he got me thru some felony charges and everything he promised he was right about. I got thru it and eventually moved to Florida and have a new life. What a difference between another lawyer I had hired !! He was always early to court , would even give me a ride. I had first hired a recommend Manhattan lawyer and he was awful , showed up to court late every time, did not understand or review my case , would not let me speak to him but only a few minutes, very rude and only cared about the money. Mr P comes highly recommended, he is like having a friend with a law degree, would answer my emails and texts, got me thru the anxiety and depression of a very complicated case. Thank you so much Mr. P, you saved my life and I can’t ever pay you back. I was even allowed to bring my dogs to the office. I can’t thank you enough!! His secretary is very helpful and nice also!
