Ms. Cynthia Devasia and the offices of Isaacs, Devasia, Castro, and Wien saved my career.
When faced with insurmountable odds Ms. Cynthia saw through all the history that made my case a muddled mess and put the best, most succinct, argument forward to help save my career from a machine determined to ruin me.
Ms. Cynthia was integral in making all the right decisions and I will forever be grateful for her counsel and her offices resources that helped make my case a success, all things considered.
I was being railroaded and she fought the powers that be with my truth, incorporating all pertinent information necessary to preserve my employment. I was facing dismissal. Ms. Cynthia was able to help me preserve my career from people who were targeting me.
I highly recommend Ms. Cynthia and her law office for excellent service and the best counsel you can get.

Having worked with a number of attorneys in the past, this is the first review I’ve ever written for one—and it is well deserved. I had an A+ experience working with Russel Morgan and his team at Morgan Legal Group. From start to finish, Russel handled my legal matters with professionalism, integrity, and transparency.
What stood out most was the genuine care he showed in resolving my concerns. I highly recommend Morgan Legal Group to anyone in need of trustworthy and efficient legal representation for estate matters. Their commitment to clients is truly top-notch.

I recently worked with Brain for my estate planning needs, and overall, it was a positive experience. The office was professional, and Brian S. Lyda was knowledgeable and attentive, answering all my questions clearly.
The only downside was the elevator situation in the building—it was slow and made getting to appointments a bit frustrating. However, the quality of service made up for it. I feel confident in the plans we put in place, and I appreciate the thoroughness of the process. I would definitely recommend Brain to anyone looking for estate planning assistance!

I called Sarah Gold's law firm to ask about forming a LLC in New York. I did some research prior to my call but was confused as heck and was not confident in dealing with the state. Ms. Gold walked me through the process, answered my questions, and told me her fee. I thought the fee was competitive, keeping in mind it included state fees and public notice fees. We communicated online, she had to search to see if my LLC name was not prohibited or duplicative. I also asked for her to set up a DBA and she did that. It was so obvious that she new what she was doing, a true expert professional . She did all the filing, advertising and DBA in a day and I had what I legally needed hours later. she emailed me copies of the application filing, receipts and most important my official LLC. I would use Sarah Gold without any hesitation and I highly recommend you do too.

In the realm of legal representation, finding an attorney who not only possesses expertise but also genuinely cares about their clients can be rare. However, our experience with Ira Maurer has been nothing short of exceptional, prompting us to share our satisfaction with his services.
One of the standout qualities of Ira Maurer is his unwavering commitment to keeping his clients informed throughout the legal process. From the initial consultation to the final settlement, he ensured that we were always in the loop, providing clarity and transparency at every step.
Accessibility is another area where Ira excels. Despite his busy schedule, he consistently made himself available for discussions via phone or email, sometimes even accommodating both modes of communication to address our concerns promptly and effectively.
Beyond his availability and communication skills, Ira's depth of knowledge in the legal field as well as medical field is truly impressive. He navigated complexities with ease, offering insights and strategies that showcased his mastery of the law.
What sets Ira apart is not just his legal acumen but also his genuine care for his clients. He took the time to understand our unique situation, offering personalized advice and solutions that reflected his dedication to achieving the best possible outcomes for us.
Our journey with Ira Maurer began with my first case, where his representation led to a satisfying settlement. When my husband faced a similar situation after being rear-ended, I had no hesitation in referring him to Ira. Once again, Ira's diligence and expertise shone through, resulting in a settlement that exceeded our expectations.
If you're seeking a knowledgeable attorney who combines expertise with genuine care for his clients, Ira Maurer is an excellent choice. Our experiences have been nothing short of outstanding, and we wholeheartedly recommend his services to anyone in need of legal representation.
Ira, my husband and I Thank You from the bottom of our hearts for all your hard work, expertise and dedication to our case and for the many many many phone calls and emails I send you throughout these two cases and for always getting back to us promptly.

It took me some time to write this because of all the emotions I have been going through, but in a nutshell, my purchase transaction for a condo in Manhattan fell through last week. I believe that Weidenbaum and Harari bears primary responsibility for the deal falling apart, and I deeply regret ever hiring them.
A summary of what went wrong:
• My case was assigned to a lawyer (Eugene Sarantis) who was on vacation and would not return until the following week. I was not happy that my case was being assigned to an associate out on vacation but I let it go.
• It was virtually impossible to get in contact with my lawyer. Despite my repeated attempts to reach Eugene via phone and e-mail, he did not respond to my request for an update until I directly asked one of the partners, Jack Harari, to intervene. The first time I was actually able to speak with Eugene was 13 days after the contract had already been sent.
• I was not brought into the contract negotiation process until the very end. I was not even sent a copy of the contract and riders until several days after they had been sent to Weidenbaum and Harari, and as referenced earlier, I was unable to speak with Eugene about the contract and provide input until 13 days into the contract negotiation process.
• Revisions were made to the contract and riders without my knowledge or consent. During the 13 days before I was finally able to speak with Eugene, negotiations and changes were being made to the contract and riders without my consent, and in many cases, without my even knowing about the requested changes.
Although I was initially told by Jack that the entire contract negotiation process would likely take 7-10 days, the contract was still not finalized 14 days after it had initially been sent. By that point, the seller had become extremely frustrated with the process and pulled out of the deal.
In hindsight, I believe that my biggest mistake in this condo purchase transaction was hiring Weidenbaum and Harari to represent me. If I could do it over again, I would have hired a different legal team, and I genuinely believe that the outcome would have been different if I had.

This was my first time pursuing a lawsuit and I couldn’t have went with a better lawyer. Ismail was checked off all the boxes when it came to a great lawyer. He was excellent with explaining things to me and he was a great listener. There was never a time where he left me in the dark about my case, and I can’t name a time when I called him and he didn’t answer. He worked very hard on my case and I can’t thank him enough for all of his compassion and kindness. He was very compassionate and most importantly he was trustworthy, and handled my case with care.

On August 27th at 2:00 PM EST, I called your office seeking legal advice and assistance. Unfortunately, I encountered an individual who displayed an unprofessional and discourteous attitude. When I initially explained my situation, she abruptly informed me that your office does not handle such matters and hung up without allowing me to ask any further questions.
I called back to inquire about the specific cases your office does handle, as I believe my civil rights have been violated. However, before I could fully articulate my question, she interrupted, stating, "I said we don’t handle this, and I said have a great day," and then hung up on me once again.
Frustrated by this lack of assistance, I called a third time to request to speak with a supervisor. On two separate occasions, she answered the phone only to immediately hang up. When she finally responded, she simply said, "Please stop calling."
I would like to bring this matter to the attention of her supervisor, as this behavior reflects a lack of customer service skills and professionalism. It is disheartening to encounter such a response, especially when reaching out for help in a difficult situation. Individuals who prioritize dismissing potential clients over offering assistance should not be in positions where they interact with the public. As a college student in need of legal help, I expected better treatment.
I hope this feedback is taken seriously and that appropriate steps are taken to ensure others do not experience the same level of disregard.

I cannot thank John Virdone and his team enough for their exceptional expertise in elder and family law. From the moment I contacted the John Virdone Law Firm, I felt reassured and supported, despite the complexities of my case. John quickly understood our unique situation and crafted a solid legal strategy to protect my and my mother's rights and our family's unity.
I have witnessed John Virdone’s competence as a skilled litigator and defense attorney in every interaction and courtroom appearance. I am impressed by his personal attention and his ability to clearly explain legal matters. He has shown a remarkable commitment to addressing my questions promptly and thoroughly. John genuinely cares about achieving the best outcome for his clients.
Although my case is still ongoing, I feel compelled to share my experience, at this time, to help someone else who may need a trustworthy, dedicated, and knowledgeable advisor in elder law and family law. I look forward to updating my review, at the conclusion of our case. Thx, MCoppin

I hired Mr. Henry in August 2023 for a medical discriminatory employment matter. I have reached out to him several times, but he only returns my calls after I beg and plead for an update. He reassures me that the matter is being taken care of, but he has not taken any action. He provided a link to my proof of documents he supposedly sent to the employer, but the link was broken. Despite promising on many occasions to provide a working link, he has not done so.
Additionally, Mr. Henry has been unavailable frequently due to sick days, family emergencies, and now he is on vacation for a month. This matter is time-sensitive, and his prolonged absences are causing significant delays. He even promised to refund the money through Affirm, but Affirm cannot help me without his response, and it has been almost a year.
Mr. Henry has not handled this matter professionally. When I mentioned consulting with his board, he accused me of threatening him. I am extremely dissatisfied with his services and the lack of communication and progress in resolving my case.

The planning of estates and weddings amongst persons of the same gender were two of the issues that we discussed throughout our conversation. Those individuals who paid attention to what we had to say were able to extract a great lot of value from his professional advice, which was of the highest possible quality and presented a large amount of support in a practical sense.

What a Civil Rights Lawyer Can Do for You
A civil rights lawyer focuses on protecting individuals whose constitutional rights have been violated by government authorities, employers, or private organizations. These lawyers specialize in cases involving discrimination, police misconduct, freedom of speech, and other fundamental rights guaranteed under the U.S. Constitution and civil rights laws, such as the Civil Rights Act, Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), and the Fair Housing Act.
Whether you've been discriminated against due to race, gender, religion, disability, or other protected characteristics, or you believe your civil rights have been violated by a government entity, a civil rights lawyer can help you seek justice, hold wrongdoers accountable, and secure compensation for any harm you've suffered.
When Should I Hire a Civil Rights Lawyer?
You should hire a civil rights lawyer when your constitutional rights or other protected rights have been violated, and you need legal assistance to seek justice. Some key situations in which you may need a civil rights lawyer include:
- Employment discrimination: If you have faced discrimination at work based on race, gender, age, religion, national origin, or disability, a civil rights lawyer can help you file claims under laws such as Title VII of the Civil Rights Act or the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).
- Police misconduct or brutality: If you were the victim of police brutality, unlawful arrest, racial profiling, or other forms of misconduct, a lawyer can help you file a lawsuit for violations of your Fourth and Fourteenth Amendment rights.
- Freedom of speech or assembly violations: If your First Amendment rights to free speech or peaceful assembly have been restricted by the government, a civil rights lawyer can represent you in challenging the violation.
- Housing discrimination: If you’ve been denied housing or faced unfair treatment due to your race, ethnicity, gender, or disability, a lawyer can help you file a complaint under the Fair Housing Act.
- Voter rights violations: If you believe your right to vote has been unfairly suppressed or you’ve faced discrimination in the voting process, a civil rights lawyer can help you fight for your rights.
- Disability rights violations: If you’ve faced discrimination in accessing public spaces, employment, or services due to a disability, a lawyer can help enforce your rights under the ADA.
- LGBTQ+ rights violations: If you've experienced discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender identity in employment, housing, or public services, a civil rights lawyer can help you pursue legal remedies.
Hiring a lawyer early on can help you understand your legal options and build a strong case to protect your rights.
What Does a Civil Rights Lawyer Do?
A civil rights lawyer provides legal representation and advocacy to individuals whose rights have been violated. Their work can include:
- Filing lawsuits: A civil rights lawyer can represent you in court by filing lawsuits against individuals, businesses, or government entities that violated your rights.
- Advocating for policy changes: Civil rights lawyers often engage in advocacy work, pushing for reforms to laws and policies that infringe upon people's rights.
- Representing clients in discrimination claims: These lawyers help clients file claims with federal or state agencies, such as the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) or the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).
- Negotiating settlements: In many cases, civil rights lawyers work to negotiate settlements for their clients before a case goes to trial, securing compensation for damages such as lost wages, emotional distress, or legal fees.
- Defending freedom of expression: Lawyers may represent clients whose rights to free speech, assembly, or protest were violated by government restrictions or other actions.
- Handling appeals: If your civil rights case has been decided but you wish to appeal the ruling, a civil rights lawyer can help you through the appeals process.
How Are Civil Rights Lawyers Paid?
Civil rights lawyers typically charge for their services based on the complexity of the case and the type of legal work involved. Common payment structures include:
- Contingency fee: Many civil rights lawyers work on a contingency basis, meaning they only get paid if they win your case. Their fee is typically a percentage (usually 25% to 40%) of the settlement or damages awarded.
- Hourly rate: For cases that require extensive legal research or litigation, some lawyers charge by the hour, with rates ranging from $150 to $500 or more, depending on the lawyer’s experience and location.
- Pro bono or sliding scale: Some civil rights lawyers or organizations may work on a pro bono (free) basis or use a sliding fee scale for clients who cannot afford typical legal fees.
- Flat fee: In specific cases, a lawyer may charge a flat fee for services like drafting legal documents or filing a complaint.
It’s important to clarify the fee structure during your initial consultation to avoid unexpected costs.
How Much Does a Civil Rights Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a civil rights lawyer varies depending on the complexity of the case, the lawyer’s experience, and the type of legal issue. General cost estimates include:
- Contingency fee cases: For cases taken on a contingency basis, the lawyer’s fee will typically range from 25% to 40% of the settlement or judgment awarded.
- Hourly rates: Many civil rights lawyers charge hourly rates ranging from $150 to $500 or more, depending on their experience and the complexity of the case.
- Flat fees: For straightforward legal tasks, such as filing a complaint with a government agency or drafting legal documents, flat fees may range from $1,000 to $5,000.
- Pro bono work: Some civil rights lawyers or nonprofit organizations provide free legal representation in certain cases involving important constitutional or civil rights issues.
Be sure to ask for a detailed estimate of costs during your consultation to understand the financial commitment involved.
Top Questions to Ask a Civil Rights Lawyer
Before hiring a civil rights lawyer, it’s important to ask the right questions to ensure they are the best fit for your case. Key questions to ask include:
-
What experience do you have with civil rights cases?
Ensure the lawyer has experience handling cases similar to yours, whether it’s employment discrimination, police misconduct, or First Amendment violations. -
How do you charge for your services?
Clarify whether the lawyer works on a contingency fee basis, hourly rate, or flat fee, and ask for an estimate of the total cost of your case. -
What is the likelihood of success for my case?
Ask the lawyer to provide an honest assessment of your case, including the strengths, weaknesses, and potential outcomes. -
Have you handled cases like mine before?
Inquire about the lawyer’s experience in cases with similar facts and legal issues. -
What is the timeline for resolving my case?
While exact timelines can vary, ask for an estimate of how long your case may take, from filing to resolution. -
Will you handle my case personally?
In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may work on parts of your case, so it’s important to know who will handle your legal matter directly.
How to Check the Credibility of a Civil Rights Lawyer
To ensure you are hiring a reputable civil rights lawyer, take the following steps to verify their credentials and track record:
- Verify their state bar license: Check with your state bar association to confirm that the lawyer is licensed to practice and has no disciplinary actions against them.
- Look for specific civil rights experience: Review the lawyer’s website or professional profile to ensure they specialize in civil rights law and have a history of handling cases like yours.
- Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for client reviews on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to see what previous clients have said about the lawyer’s professionalism and success rate.
- Ask for references: A credible lawyer should be able to provide references from past clients who can speak to their experience with civil rights cases.
- Check for advocacy or nonprofit work: Lawyers involved with civil rights organizations, such as the ACLU or NAACP Legal Defense Fund, may have a strong reputation in the civil rights legal community.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To get the most out of your first consultation with a civil rights lawyer, it’s important to come prepared with relevant documents and information. Here’s what you should bring:
- A detailed account of the violation: Provide a written summary of the events, including dates, times, and any people involved in the violation of your rights.
- Documentation and evidence: Bring any supporting documentation, such as emails, letters, photos, or video footage that may help prove the violation of your rights.
- Records of complaints or reports: If you’ve filed complaints with a government agency or reported the violation, bring copies of those documents.
- List of questions: Write down any questions you have about the legal process, costs, and potential outcomes of your case.
- Information on damages or harm: Be prepared to discuss the harm you’ve suffered due to the violation, such as emotional distress, financial loss, or physical injury.
By preparing thoroughly for your consultation, you can help the lawyer assess your case more effectively and get the best possible legal advice on how to proceed.
