We retained Michael Beer to fight a ticket our daughter got in a Suffolk County. He was professional and very easy to deal with. He was very responsive and answered every question that we had.
He got the result he thought he could and kept us in the loop throughout the entire process.
Traffic violations are a fact of life and having Michael Beer on one’s side is essential. We would strongly recommend him.

My previous divorce lawyer wasted two years putting me through hell, leaving me in a quagmire with no end in sight. I sought new counsel to try and salvage what I could. I consulted several other firms, but thankfully chose John. He went to work on my mess with strategic agility, outmaneuvering the opposing counsel at every turn. John was diligent, communicative, whip-smart and tenacious, and made sure I understood what was happening and why. With John on my side, I was able to sleep at night. Within a few months, John had achieved a settlement which I was thrilled with. Had I gone with him from the beginning, it would have saved time, money, and all that unnecessary turmoil. My advice: trust this attorney.

My ex had seriously unlimited coffers, hired some of the most expensive lawyers in the USA, and in the end had 5 of them against Mario. My ex paid off school officials with donations, and used financial strength to bully anyone who would have helped testify about the reality. And guess what? Mario still won! And he did it with style!

Mr. Karasik recently concluded a case on my behalf. I was extremely impressed with his diligence, intelligence and ability to cut to the chase. He kept me informed of all developments along the way, educated me about the court process, and resolved everything to my satisfaction. I believe that I could not have made a better choice in picking an attorney.

Simon is an excellent lawyer in all areas in which I have had experience with him. He is knowledgeable and focused. He is excellent as an all-around general attorney from fields as disparate as real estate, litigation, mediation and commercial transactions.
He is also honest and that is , unfortunately, often not the case in this profession.

Ayalah helped me navigate a very difficult divorce and custody situation. She outlined very clearly all the steps in the process. She was quick to reply to my questions and emails. She was very honest and upfront with the financial and emotional costs involved in the process. She used her experience with mediation in helping me understand that it would be more helpful to cooperate rather than go to war. In the end I was able to get almost everything that I wanted, including shared custody. I would definitely recommend anyone to schedule a consultation with her.

Mario Joseph has a high success rate as an attorney of getting results of his clients requests. He is very professional and knowledgeable in the divorce court proceedings. He goes beyond the call of duty to make himself available and being on top of things making sure no issues fall the sidelines. You as the client wants results and Mario Joseph as the attorney delivers, cant ask for a better attorney!!

I have personally had a few matters with State and Federal Taxation where Mr. Blaustein excelled at identifying solutions/remedies; he also demonstrated an acute ability to communicate and negotiate with agencies and third parties to bring about my desired results.
As a Consultant and Expeditor to business owners, I have on many occassions referred clients with sizeable tax issues and indebtedness to Mr. Blaustein. All have been very satisfied, some even were elated to have successful outcomes brought on by Mr. Randy Blausteins' professional efforts.

Blaustein was recommended by a friend when I was having difficulty with an IRS audit. His recommendations were in the final analysis not helpful and his negotiations with the IRS unsuccessful. For this work he charged me well over 10,000 and I not only received little value, but his handling resulted in a number of years of successive audits which were not in question when he began to work for me. I feel that he misrepresented his ability to achieve successful results for me from the outset and have since discussed his poor performance, high fees and over-promising results with other dissatisfied clients.
