We met virginia leasure at an informational meeting on real-estate at Syracuse University. Her presentation relayed an impressive knowledge base. She was very apprachable and answered our many questions providing in-depth valuable information. Several months later we contacted her to represent us in a real-estate transaction. There were many obstacles that she cleared for us and additional valuable advice that brought us to a successful conclusion. We will always be grateful for her expertise and kind and generous manner. We have referred freinds to her who report having similar positive experiences. I am so glad that we had the good fortune to meet her and feel empowered to enter into future transactions with her capable representation.

I met Mr. Copani for the first time and immediately felt comfortable. I've met some lawyers who talk down to you as if they are more important than the client they are talking to. He was friendly, informative and honest.

I worked as Mail Clerk for a Medical Management Company in Syracuse, New York. As I was lifting a box, I injured my shoulder. I sought out the help of Fine, Olin & Anderman, LLP to file for Workers’ Compensation benefits on my behalf. I was extremely pleased with my Attorney Kevin Burgess, Esq. and Legal Assistant Patricia Glick. Kevin was very informative about everything and was a real advocate for me. I would highly recommend FOA to anyone who is in need of a Workers’ Compensation attorney.”

I retained Randi on a Grand Larceny case which she successfully defended me against. In Court, the Judge complimented me on my choice of Attorney and described her as tenacious. She is definitely the lawyer you want to have on your side if you are facing criminal charges. She answered all my questions, kept in touch so I wasn't wondering what was going on, and really made me feel at ease.

Constance represented me in a custody issue as a court mandated attorney. She believed in me as a loving father and fought for me. I will never be able to repay her for the many joyful days I have had with my children. My children will never be able to repay her for the ability that she provided in getting to know their father better. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Atty Mehallow was straight forward. He was confident on my case. Very pleased with his expertise and handling of my situation. I have recommended him to another person for like reason of my case.
We really do not have anyone in our area that has a good reputation or knowledge of these kinds of cases. Mostly criminal in nature, in this area on CNY.

Attorney Edmond Ordez assisted us in settling a dwi case in Syracuse, NY. This was a case that was ignored out of fear and anxiety and Mr. Ordez's consciousness of these issues made the process easier. He walked us through each step and made sure that we understood what we were facing. He was extremely helpful and made the process stress free and resolved quickly. We highly recommend Mr. Ordez for any case. He is an exceptional attorney.

Had a pretty complicated land sale that these folks handled for me. Complicated because the land had been in the family for well over 100 years and there were no surveys. They coordinated all the details on the abstract, etc and got the job done. Thoroughly professional and maintained great communication with me on the inevitable issues that needed resolution along the way.

Janelle has been my lawyer for over three years and has done an excellent job in not only fighting for me, but also protecting my interests! She has amazing communication skills, is very patient and great at negotiation. Janelle’s legal skills are excellent, but just as important she's a supportive attorney who truly cares and will have your back the entire time. Hands down the best law firm out there and I would highly recommend! Thank you again Bandoblu Office for absolutely everything!

This is who you want representing you. I was not experienced with family court and had terrible anxiety. Janelle has consistently been there for me from day one. Even after the case, she has shown her support.
Words that I would use to describe this practice would be professional, compassionate and knowledgeable. When I thought no one would understand, Bandoblu Law Office DID. I am eternally thankful!

Alex is the best attorney out there. He has helped my family close on 2 homes and also does our taxes.
He stays on top of everything and takes care to make sure everything stays on schedule.
If you have ever closed on a buy and sale at the same time, you know how stressful and difficult it can be to line everything up just right. Alex made sure that both our recent sale and purchase stayed on track.
