I am incredibly grateful for the exceptional service provided by Greenberg Law P.C. during my recent personal injury case. From the very beginning, the team demonstrated an unwavering commitment to my case, giving it the attention and respect it deserved. Their professionalism and dedication were evident in every interaction.
What truly stood out was the personal touch and genuine care I received from my attorney. They were not only highly skilled and knowledgeable but also incredibly patient and understanding. They took the time to explain every detail of the process, addressing all my concerns with compassion and clarity. This level of personal attention made a significant difference in my experience and gave me confidence and peace of mind throughout the entire process.

I could not have been happier with Greenberg law.
They were efficient, caring, , easy to deal with, and helped me receive the appropriate compensation for my broken wrist due to a car accident.
Alan Greenberg took my calls when necessary and would call me directly. He also has an excellent office staff.
They removed all the stress that I might’ve experienced from my claim , because they handled all of the paperwork and I did not have to deal with any of that.
I recommend this firm without hesitation.

I was facing 5 tickets which all contained points and high fee penalties. I contacted Mr.Ricca and from there he made it super easy, affordable and kept me updated on my case. Ultimately he got 4 of my charges dismissed and 1 lowered to a minor infraction that would have no impact on my record. Amazing work and definitely recommend!

The alchemists at Oved & Oved turned our complex federal jury trial into a triumph. Their relentless “never give up, never give in” attitude resulted in a decisive win for our organization. A huge shout out to the exceptional team of Darren Oved, Terrence Oved, Aaron Solomon, and Tim Savitsky who provided masterful representation from first touch through jury verdict and post-trial briefing. Their professionalism and dedication are unmatched. For top-tier legal representation, Oved & Oved is the gold standard.

When I sold my house, owned by my irrevocable trust, my accountant said I would have to pay tens of thousands in taxes. The Littman Krooks lawyer I saw was both extremely thorough and very personable. He wrote a masterful letter to my accountant who passed it on to her legal office which then agreed with the Littman Krooks lawyer. The IRS accepted the filing, saving me tens of thousands of dollars.

Julia Santo and Kris Slifkin are wonderful! I found myself in desperate need of an Elder Care attorney last spring and Julia literally came to the rescue!! Julia and Chris “held my hand” through the overwhelming process of paperwork, Medicaid, provided resources, gave clear direction on how to navigate the various systems and just as important, were there for me any time I needed them. I highly recommend Lamson and Cutner and specially, attorney Julia Santo!!! Thank you!!!!

As a caregiver for many years of a family member who had Parkinson's disease, our Licensed Clinical Social Worker at our hospital Neurology Department presented me with three names of eldercare law firms as my family member's health was declining.
I interviewed all three firms, then selected Lamson & Cutner to proceed with our eldercare requirements for help in navigating the ever changing legal requirements as to long term nursing home care when on USA Government health care insurances.
I am so happy to have found this law firm for help , my family members agree ,that it was the wisest decision for me to make.
No one can do this complicated legal work alone and it is best ,if possible to proceed with legal issues when the ill person can still understand and contibute their own desires as to what their assets distribution ,usually but not exclusivly into an Irrevocable trust, as well as critical end of life decisions to their family which should be then ultimately drawn up in legal documents by an Attorney .
As the LSCW stated to me when I hesitated thinking "I had so much time to get to this issue" ...'Don't put it off"!

Watching so many of William Mattar’s funny commercials, I never thought I’d be needing the assistance of his office. My son made the call for me as I lay in the trauma unit at Rochester’s Strong Memorial Hospital after a car crash close to my home on Christmas morning 2023. The folks at the Law office were kind, considerate, efficient, and checked in on me frequently. The case had a very good resolution and I’m very pleased with the results. I’d recommend William Mattar’s Office to anyone in a serious car accident. These people work for YOU.

I recently had the privilege of working with Aaron who turned my perception of legal services completely around. Facing two felony charges was one of the most daunting experiences of my life, but thanks to this skilled attorney, I can confidently say that I walked away with my head held high.
From the moment I reached out for a consultation, I was impressed by his professionalism and responsiveness. He took the time to listen to my situation, addressing all my concerns and providing me with a clear overview of what to expect moving forward. It was evident that not only did they have a wealth of legal knowledge, but they also genuinely cared about my case.
What truly stood out to me was their strategic approach. In less than six months, Aaron was able to negotiate effectively and get my charges dropped. This accomplishment speaks volumes about their expertise and dedication to his clients. The attorney navigated the complexities of the legal system with remarkable proficiency, continually keeping me informed and involved in the process.
Another significant factor was their reasonable pricing. Legal fees can often be exorbitant, leaving clients feeling overwhelmed and stressed about financial commitments on top of existing legal troubles. However, Aaron provided transparent pricing and worked with me to create a plan that suited my budget. This honesty and clarity were refreshing and made a stressful situation a lot easier to manage.
Overall, I cannot recommend this attorney enough. He skillfully transformed what could have been a dire situation into a successful resolution. If you find yourself in need of legal assistance, especially regarding felony charges, do not hesitate to reach out. You will find not only a competent attorney but also a trustworthy ally in your corner. Thank you for your incredible work!

Had a CS Findings and Modification case. Anyone who has experienced these hearings knows how daunting and stressful it could be. Luckily I was able to find Stephen Riebling to represent me on the matter.
Mr. Riebling is very knowledgeable, professional, prompt when contacted and understanding. His representation definitely alleviated my concerns.
For someone who is going to go the extra mile, I would recommend Stephen Riebling. He is going to do what is necessary for both parties to reach an amicable agreement.
Thank you, Mr. Riebling.

Terrible attorney. Took my money while I was fighting cancer and a terrible betrayal by my husband and made a terrible deal without my consent or permission to sell my home and lose my family pets all before I ever stepped into a courtroom.
I fired him immediately and hired some great attorneys and they got the court orders to sell my home and remove my animals reversed. It’s 2 years later and I won my home, the contents, my kids, my family pets and much much more thanks to Wexler Law Group.
Be very very careful who you retain for your divorce you could lose everything with the wrong attorney.

I cannot say enough positive things about Kate Ryan. Going through a divorce is never easy, but Kate made the process so much more bearable with her professionalism, knowledge, and genuine care. After firing my first attorney for unnecessarily prolonging my divorce, Kate stepped in and got things moving immediately. Within just a few weeks, she was able to resolve my case efficiently and professionally. From the start, she took the time to understand my situation, patiently explained all the legal options, and always made sure I felt heard.
Her expertise in family law and the court system is outstanding, and she handled my case with precision and attention to detail. Kate was always available to answer questions, provide updates, and offer sound advice. She fought hard for a fair resolution, and the outcome of my case exceeded my expectations.
If you're looking for a highly skilled divorce attorney who will prioritize your needs and advocate for you every step of the way, I highly recommend Kate Ryan. She truly made a difficult time in my life so much easier, and I cannot recommend her enough. Thank you for your unwavering support and exceptional representation!

Katherine was my divorce attorney and I don't feel she represented my best interests with any sincerity and her focus was on billing until I was wrung dry, at which point, she dumped me as a client against my wishes. In the long run, she did me a favor but at the time it was very stressful and I was left unrespresented because I couldn't afford to lay out another retainer, as she was aware.
She was not successful in securing a good deal with the other side, repeatedly brushed off my concerns and didn't bother to inform me of any strategy or what to expect. Her "bedside manner" was pitiful.
When I had a status conference coming up again, she threatened that if I did not come up with the balance several days in advance that she would not go on my behalf. I scraped up most of it but could not come up with the entire amount. She accepted that and seemed ok with the small balance left.
She went in to the conference and announced to the lawyer, court clerk and judge that she would not be represnting me further, without having informed me. Afterwards, she explained to me what had transpired, urged me to take the paltry offer from the other side and only then let me know that she wanted off my case because I had lost faith in her. I told her that we did not need to like each other in order to continue, should be keep things professional and that I had no recourse to replace her as my funds were dry. If perhaps she had secured spoousal support from my ex who earned far more than I did, I could have afforded to pay her but she was not interested in pursuing that. She did not seem to care about the dire financial situation I was in and had ignored my suggestions that she try to get court ordered compensation from the other side as well. I knew this was possible from other separated people I knew in simiar situations on both counts.
It had been approximately 6 months since forward progress had been made in our case. I kept paying for status conferences and to only keep hearing how the other attorney does not return calls. The offer she was suggesting I consider was ridiculously low and I truly believe she wanted to move on to someone with deeper pockets and had lost interest in my case.
I asked her not to take herself off my case because I needed representation and she said if I did not sign to allow it, she would go to court and would get the judge to let her off anyway. She agreed to waive her fee for the last court appearance because if I had known she was quitting, I would not have wanted her speaking on my behalf. I felt coerced into letting her resign.
I am now being pursued for the balance on my account at a larger amount than agreed. I offered her a settlement but instead she hired a lawyer to pursue it in court. That feels like bullying again from someone who knows the law against someone who cannot afford professional representation.
I was referred to her because my prior attorney made a large financial mistake that, luckily, I caught when discussing it with someone who was more experienced than I am. The person who referred her said she would fight for me and be a pit bull. Unfortnately, rather than feel like she was representing me, I felt that she was fighting me rather than fighting for me.
In the end, she did me a favor because I represented myself and got a far more favorable deal than she had pushed me to take. It involves retirement funds which I can't touch yet so that doesn't help me with affording her current bill, which is higher than she last agreed to accept. I was stressed about going in on my trial date without a lawyer for almost 6 months. Divorce is stressful enough already but she left me to feel defenseless for months, literally.

Jacob Silver is an outstanding attorney! My partner was dealing with bad debt and went through a hard time with not being able to make ends meet. I found Mr. Silver on google and saw the amazing reviews and had my partner make an appointment ASAP. Within 2 months Mr. Silver did everything with paperwork, meetings, etc. for the bankruptcy as he felt necessary and let me add that he is always responsive and available for questions when his clients need him because my partner would email at some random times and always received a response! My partner is now debt free. This was such a big weight lifted off of both of our shoulders, and I am happy I found Jacob Silver. Thank you for giving my partner a new start in life. I would recommend this attorney in a less than heartbeat, 10 stars! :)

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.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Jason Bassett as my attorney, and I cannot recommend him highly enough.

What an Appeals Lawyer Can Do for You
An appeals lawyer specializes in representing clients in appellate courts, challenging or defending lower court decisions. If you believe that a legal error was made during your trial or that the court’s decision was unjust, an appeals lawyer can help you appeal the ruling to a higher court. They work to identify mistakes made during the trial, such as improper application of law, exclusion of key evidence, or jury misconduct. On the other hand, if you're defending a favorable judgment, an appeals lawyer can help protect the decision from being overturned.
Appeals lawyers don’t retry the case but instead focus on legal arguments and procedural issues to convince the appellate court to either overturn, modify, or uphold the lower court’s decision.
When Should I Hire an Appeals Lawyer?
Hiring an appeals lawyer is necessary when you are involved in a legal appeal, either as the appellant (the party appealing the case) or the appellee (the party defending the lower court’s ruling). Common situations in which you should hire an appeals lawyer include:
- Appealing a conviction or ruling: If you’ve been convicted in a criminal case or lost a civil case and believe the decision was based on legal errors or improper procedures, an appeals lawyer can review the case and file an appeal on your behalf.
- Challenging a sentence: In criminal cases, if you feel that the sentence is excessively harsh or not in line with legal standards, an appeals lawyer can work to reduce or modify the sentence.
- Defending a lower court ruling: If the opposing party has filed an appeal to overturn a favorable ruling, an appeals lawyer can help defend the judgment and argue that the lower court’s decision should be upheld.
- Complex legal issues: If your case involves complicated legal issues or interpretations of the law, an appeals lawyer can provide the necessary expertise to argue those points effectively before an appellate court.
- Reviewing trial errors: Appeals lawyers can examine whether mistakes such as jury misconduct, improper exclusion or admission of evidence, or incorrect jury instructions occurred during the trial.
You should hire an appeals lawyer as soon as you decide to appeal or are informed that the other party is appealing the case, as appellate procedures are time-sensitive.
What Does an Appeals Lawyer Do?
An appeals lawyer provides specialized legal services to challenge or defend a lower court decision. Their role focuses on legal arguments, reviewing the trial record, and persuading the appellate court to either reverse or uphold the ruling. They can:
- Review the trial record: Appeals lawyers meticulously review transcripts, evidence, and rulings from the original trial to identify any legal errors or procedural mistakes that could be grounds for appeal.
- Prepare and file briefs: Appeals lawyers write legal briefs that present persuasive arguments to the appellate court. These briefs focus on the legal errors made during the trial and how they affected the outcome.
- Present oral arguments: In many appeals, lawyers present oral arguments before a panel of judges, explaining why the lower court’s decision should be reversed or upheld based on legal principles.
- Monitor case law developments: Appeals lawyers stay updated on changes in the law and precedents set by higher courts, which can be crucial in shaping the arguments they present during the appeal.
- Provide legal advice on the likelihood of success: Appeals lawyers can offer a realistic assessment of your chances of winning the appeal based on the legal errors and evidence from the trial.
How Are Appeals Lawyers Paid?
Appeals lawyers typically charge for their services based on the complexity of the appeal and the amount of work required to prepare briefs and present arguments. Common payment structures include:
- Hourly rate: Many appeals lawyers charge by the hour due to the significant amount of research, writing, and preparation involved in appeals. Hourly rates can range from $200 to $600 or more, depending on the lawyer’s experience and the case’s complexity.
- Flat fee: For some straightforward appeals, a lawyer may charge a flat fee that covers all the work necessary to complete the appeal.
- Retainer fee: In complex or high-stakes appeals, a lawyer may require a retainer, an upfront payment that covers the initial stages of the appeal. The lawyer then bills against this retainer for ongoing work.
It's important to discuss fees and costs upfront with your lawyer during the initial consultation to ensure you understand the financial commitment involved.
How Much Does an Appeals Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring an appeals lawyer varies depending on factors such as the complexity of the case, the lawyer’s experience, and the amount of work involved. General cost estimates include:
- Straightforward appeals: For simpler appeals, such as those involving minor legal errors, fees can range from $5,000 to $15,000, depending on the scope of work.
- Complex appeals: Appeals that involve complicated legal issues, multiple grounds for appeal, or high-stakes outcomes can cost anywhere from $20,000 to $100,000 or more, especially if the case requires extensive legal research, brief writing, and oral arguments.
- Hourly rates: Many appeals lawyers charge hourly rates ranging from $200 to $600 per hour, with higher rates often associated with more experienced attorneys or particularly challenging cases.
Before proceeding with your appeal, it’s crucial to ask for a clear estimate of the costs involved so you can budget appropriately.
Top Questions to Ask an Appeals Lawyer
Before hiring an appeals lawyer, it’s essential to ask questions to ensure they are well-suited for your case and that you understand the appeals process. Important questions include:
-
What experience do you have with appeals?
Ensure the lawyer has substantial experience handling appellate cases, particularly in the area of law relevant to your case (e.g., criminal, civil, family, etc.). -
How do you charge for appeals?
Ask whether the lawyer charges an hourly rate, a flat fee, or a retainer, and request an estimate of the total costs for handling your appeal. -
What is the likelihood of success for my appeal?
A good appeals lawyer should provide an honest assessment of your case’s strengths and weaknesses and the chances of winning the appeal. -
How long will the appeal process take?
Ask for an estimate of how long the appeal process might take, from filing the initial briefs to a final decision by the appellate court. -
Will you personally handle my appeal?
In larger law firms, junior attorneys or legal assistants may handle some of the research or drafting. Clarify who will be responsible for preparing and arguing your case. -
What is your approach to handling appeals?
Some lawyers may be more inclined to focus on procedural issues, while others emphasize broader legal arguments. Make sure the lawyer’s approach aligns with your goals.
How to Check the Credibility of an Appeals Lawyer
To ensure that you’re hiring a reputable appeals lawyer, take the following steps to verify their credentials and experience:
- Verify their bar status: Check with your state bar association to confirm that the lawyer is licensed and in good standing, with no history of disciplinary actions.
- Look for appellate experience: Review the lawyer’s website or profile to ensure they specialize in appellate law and have successfully handled appeals similar to yours.
- Check client reviews and testimonials: Look for client feedback on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to get insight into the lawyer’s track record and client satisfaction.
- Ask for references: A credible lawyer should be willing to provide references from past clients who can speak to their expertise and success in handling appeals.
- Look for recognition in appellate law: Membership in organizations like the American Academy of Appellate Lawyers (AAAL) or awards and recognition in appellate law can indicate a lawyer’s expertise in this specialized area.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To make the most out of your first consultation with an appeals lawyer, it’s important to come prepared with relevant documents and information. Here’s what you should bring:
- Trial transcripts and court records: The lawyer will need a complete record of the original trial, including transcripts, motions, exhibits, and the final judgment or order.
- Legal briefs from the trial: If any briefs or motions were filed during the trial, bring copies so the appeals lawyer can review the legal arguments that were presented.
- Written decision or verdict: Bring the court’s written ruling, verdict, or decision so the lawyer can identify any potential errors or issues to raise on appeal.
- Questions about the appeal process: Write down any questions you have about the appeal’s timeline, costs, and potential outcomes.
- List of potential legal errors: If you believe specific mistakes were made during the trial (e.g., improper evidence, legal misinterpretations), provide a list of those issues.
Being well-prepared for your consultation allows the lawyer to assess your case more effectively and provide the best guidance on how to proceed with your appeal.
