I had no idea how ruthless the insurance companies and defense lawyers would be after my car accident. My attorneys at Denlea & Carton were my champions. They took the time to explain the process from the very beginning, and were by my side every step of the way. Having them fight for me, and help me to explain the feelings I was struggling to express, was life changing. I am forever grateful for their compassion, help and toughness.

"Recently I found the need to hire an attorney. I hired the firm of Denlea & Carton and highly recommend them. They are very professional. Their expertise and knowledge were exceptional. They stayed in touch with us every step of the way, and made a very stressful situation for our family so much more bearable. They were a pleasure to work with, and brought about a very positive result for us."

Dear McBean family,
My name is Ronald. I got the details of McBean on the website as I was reviewing lawyers in New York.
I made a request for a consultation.
It was very professional right from the booking , a reminder call an hour before our scheduled appointment and the appointment was right on time. The consultation was way above my expectations. I was guided not only about what I wanted but the spaces were opened up with a number of options.
I’m truly thankful and will definitely engage the firm for the next phase and also give positive referrals to friends .

I want to say that Erica, Laura and especially Maribel have been exceptionally helpful, caring and supportive.

They helped and are still helping to make sure I get all the treatment and benefits that I’m entitled to receive. I am forever grateful and appreciative of their help.

I highly recommend Lever & Ecker for their exceptional professionalism and support. During my initial consultation, the staff demonstrated remarkable empathy and understanding of my situation. Although my case fell outside their area of expertise, they diligently followed up to ensure my well-being and provided valuable information relevant to my case. Their commitment to going above and beyond in assisting me, even when they could not represent me, was truly impressive. The care and consideration shown by the team surpassed my expectations. I am sincerely grateful for their assistance.

Joe, as someone else said, is "The best of the best" for estate planning purposes and estate matters.
He is extremely busy so sometimes he comes off as being abrupt. My parents used his services, their friends used his services and now I use his services. You will do yourself a big favor using Joe for your estate planning - he loves what he does and he does it so well.

Tracey Daniels and Seamus McDonough helped us in the sale of a 1-bedroom apartment in Brooklyn. They were both knowledgeable and great communicators and the cost for their services was fair. I highly recommend Daniels O'Connell PC.

I had a difficult time communicating with Tracey. Specifically, I asked her to "clarify" why the final bill was more than "twice" the estimate she gave. Her response was "I will put down my pen" if you do not pay. No clarification. In fact her response is against the code of ethics for the New York Bar which advocates resolving disputes "amicably". Tracey was not resolving disputes "amicably" in this instance. In fact, she is often less than "amicable", and unprofessional, if she feels challenged.
As well, her office "makes mistakes". For example, I have the same documents notarized "twice" because they "expired". The reason they "expired" is because we were missing a Certificate of Death. I expect Tracey to be on top of required documentation and not come up "short" the last minute.
Bottom line, the transaction took six months because of Tracey's lack of attention to details (such as the missing Certificate of Death). To rub salt on the wound, she charged more than twice the estimate because it took "so long" to close.
Do not recommend.

Tracey was not resolving disputes "amicably" in this instance. In fact, she is often less than "amicable", and unprofessional, if she feels challenged.
As well, her office "makes mistakes". For example, I have the same documents notarized "twice" because they "expired". The reason they "expired" is because we were missing a Certificate of Death. I expect Tracey to be on top of required documentation and not come up "short" the last minute.
Bottom line, the transaction took six months because of Tracey's lack of attention to details (such as the missing Certificate of Death). To rub salt on the wound, she charged more than twice the estimate because it took "so long" to close.
