We just had an initial consultation with David regarding compliance for our Amazon launch, as well as upcoming IP defense strategy for our brand, Grappling SMARTY. David was very helpful in terms of providing expert advice. He took the time to understand our position and explain the pros and cons of each option while weighing the risks and potential rewards. Very knowledgeable and helpful, don't hesitate to contact him for all your e-commerce needs.

I had a great experience working with Sekendiz Law group. Ismail is professional and diligent. He walked me through the entire process, set realistic expectations, and addressed all concerns. It was very easy to communicate with Ismail throughout the process as well. Ismail is a true champion for his clients. I highly recommend Ismail and the Sekendiz Law group.

09 Sep, 2024 by Robin thomas

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.

Samantha called me and asked for the details of the case. I was speaking to her a mile a minute because having to regurgitate all of this up again was a bit scary. Samantha stated that if it were okay, I could write my experiences down, and she would contact me the following Monday or Tuesday. Therefore, I gave her a prewritten document about 4-5 pages long. I thought there was no way she would chop this up over the weekend and be ready to proceed with the following steps by Monday or Tuesday. I readied myself again to speak a tad more slowly and calmly. However, once Monday came around, Samatha summarized all of my information as if I had said it. She read it. She detailed precisely what I wanted to say. She is brilliant and fast in distilling information while being pragmatic enough to distinguish between what will be relevant and what isn’t. It was a pleasure speaking and working with Samatha.

18 Jan, 2023 by Karl

After hiring the law firm Ms. Hudler works for, she was tasked with handling my case. Whenever I needed some information or help with anything pertaining to my case, I never had to wait for her to contact me or assist me when I needed her help. She is an enormous reason in my opinion why I now have my Union finally going to bat for me. I can't thank her enough for all her help.

05 Aug, 2022 by Anonymous

Although certain criteria were not met to help me obtain a desirable outcome, Samantha pushed for me and got me a settlement in less than a month! I’m very happy I came across her office and will be sure to refer their office to potential clients. Samantha was kind over the phone and very helpful. Her candor convinced me I had made the right choice.

Outstanding support, customer service if you will, which is rare these days. Communication, a response from Zach, was rapid, thorough and effective. I would trust him and this firm 100%

07 Aug, 2024 by Barbara king

My experience with Zackary Meyer was incredible. He made me feel comfortable in explaining my litigation matter that had been going on for over 5 years. You can’t imagine the frustration I’ve been dealing with for that long period of time. I explained my side of the story as he reviewed my case and he understood exactly what was going on and agreed to take my case. He also explained to me he didn’t offer any promises or guarantee on the outcome but he said he would do his very best. When this firm offers to do their best “look out” because that is exactly what you will get. On my trial date at court, I thought I would be nervous but I wasn’t because a very polite young man by the named Ali Jaffery partner of Zackery Meyers Firm attended. He presented the facts in a very dignified manner. The facts were proven for this trail and the lawsuit against me were dismissed at its entirety. I am so grateful for this firm. If you are ever in need for a law firm that gives a client 100%, I highly recommend Sutton Sacks and Meyers. The expertise of this firm is one that I am so grateful for and will be long lived. Again, Kudos to Zackary Meyer and Ali Jaffery.

First starter he is very easy to work with! I never worried about my case. He makes you understand every single detail. I got my greencard as short as 7 months and we didn’t even go through interview process. He is so professional and knows what he is doing. You can always reach out to him very easily. So grateful to work with him after hearing all this bad stories from other people. You won’t regret to work with him I can tell you that. Definitely highly recommended!!! Thank you for everything David!

From our initial consultation to the final resolution of my case, their team provided clear communication, thorough legal guidance, and consistently demonstrated a deep understanding of the law.

If you're seeking compensation and want a firm that genuinely cares about its clients, look no further. They truly stand out in their commitment to client service!

I was in a bad car accident 2023 and had no idea of what to do. Cohen & Jaffe were recommended by a friend. The first person I spoke to was Carola Sanchez. She was understanding and compassionate and helped me navigate this situation. From there Melissa Petronis also got involved. Dara Kohl helped with my doctors appointments as well. Mr Stephen Tiger was my lawyer. Every conversation with him, he was sympathetic and listened. The entire team was truly so helpful and made me feel like I was their only client. Phone calls and emails were always returned promptly. They all worked with me and helped me resolve this case to my satisfaction. I highly recommend their offices.

Wonderful office to do business with! After spending several months researching an attorney to assist with my unusual circumstances, Meier Law Firm was my "saving grace". From the time I first called -Penny was able to help me right away. The document signing was seamless. Christina and the Office Staff were right on the ball! Extremely professional and forthcoming with information. I highly recommend Meier Law Firm!

The Meier law firm has done a tremendous job working with us on our parents estates which were recently closed.

We also worked with Christina and other members of the staff and were pleased with everyone. This is a great firm to work with.

I had a question regarding court appearance for a traffic ticket. I wondered if I needed to retain an attorney. Ms. Olivia Lupolis gave me a rather detailed rundown on what to expected, after hearing my situation. This is the very first time I've faced a situation like this and Olivia has been very nice and generous in her advice, all over the phone without charge. I am very grateful for that. Unlike the very first law firm I called.

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! :)

I am not a client of Mr.Arce however I inquired about retaining Mr.Arce's services. Mr.Arce not only swiftly replied to my inquiry, he spent the time to write me out a detailed response to my inquiry and give me guidance and how to proceed forward. Good people like this who go out of their way to help the least I can do is let potential clients know how great Mr.Arce treated me.

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.

From the outset, he demonstrated an unwavering commitment to addressing every challenge that arose, ensuring a seamless experience throughout. John's tenacity and genuine kindness were evident in every interaction, and he provided personalized service that exceeded my expectations.

I wholeheartedly recommend John to anyone seeking a broker who not only delivers exceptional results but also prioritizes the individual needs of his clients.

This is a review on Kurta Law and specifically Jonathan Kurta. Jonathan reached out to me a few months back and was representing a group to recover funds on a stock loss. When I first discussed the issue he was very easy to talk to and I didn't feel pressured to join. After talking with him I agreed to move forward and he kept me informed as progress was made and ultimately got an excellent outcome. This is especially eventful due to the fact that the case was older than aloud but we still won the case. I highly recommend this company and Jonathan. Mike

Innocent, dismissed, withdrawn, are what you want to hear throughout your case. Accusations are upsetting, you’re angry, you want to get up and fight. That’s your Attorney’s job, to reassure you that we’ll get to the bottom of this. Have patience, be calm and cool, understand the process. I couldn’t have asked for a better Attorney to represent me than Ashleigh Russell. Ashleigh was responsive to me throughout the entire case, even before and after court hours. She’s not just some ghosting lawyer with a mountain of cases that you think you’re doing all the work for and takes days or weeks to get an answer from. In the end, my son was freely back in my arms again 😃 Thank you Ashleigh, so much, and the team at Picarello & Saciolo, PLLC

My experience here was horrible willing to take your money but don’t put in no work I had Brian first for my first court date then he got drop from me and I got Catherine the worst ever she showed no care for what I was going through due to the fact of me trying to get my son back home in Connecticut. It’s like she was working against me with the other party. I would email her and she takes for ever to respond I won’t get a respond until the next day if so. Then she try to tell me oh I should be glad dad didn’t put me on child support for my son because dad have temporary residential custody mean while dad is on child support and never paid a dollar since be been on child support now tell me how that make sense?. The front desk lady got upset with me when I wanted to change her and get somebody else who would actually care about my situation asking why I wanna change Cathrine as if they doing me a free job like I’m not paying these people my hard working money. Cathrine should no compassion to how I feel as a mother about my situation regarding my child. would I recommend anybody to this law firm HELL NOOOOOO!

I am very impressed with Mr. Slepian's work ethic. I consulted him with a question about possible actions to take, and he took the time to thoroughly understand the background of my immigration process. He was the first lawyer to do this, and as a non-native speaker, I really appreciated that he spoke slowly and clearly. He also didn’t try to push his services on me. Instead, he made me feel very relieved. If I ever need an immigration lawyer, he will be my first choice.

My husband and I had a very positive experience with Andrew Slepian, who assisted us in adjusting my husband's immigration status from visa to green card. Andrew made the process smooth and easy to understand. He answered all of our questions thoroughly and clearly outlined exactly the steps we needed to take. We look forward to continuing to work with Andrew on the next steps in our journey, as my husband works toward obtaining his U.S. citizenship.

I am so thankful to have had Danielle Seid-Vazana as my divorce attorney. Danielle is a very professional, responsive, diligent, a caring attorney. She listens to every detail and her approach is well throughout. I would highly recommend her for anyone dealing with a highly contested divorce. She stood by my side the entire time until the end. I truly can't thank her enough as she helped me get through a difficult time in my life.

Danielle is a compassionate, caring and present family law attorney. She is responsive, timely and actually cares about the best interest of your child. Before I started working with her I referred a few clients to her based on a recommendation, and I’m happy that I hired her as well once I had respond to litigation for the first time in four years. It’s important to have someone who cares because otherwise the attorney will get bored of your case, won’t respond and you’ll be put on the back burner. Danielle is unlike the others and I highly recommend her.

All credit to Danielle and Linda for the incredible outcome in my case. Their experience and knowledge of the courts protected me and my interests. Reasonable and realistic is what I asked and that is what I was delivered. I felt the entire office cared for me as a person and friend. I followed their shrewd advice throughout and benefitted with a great post divorce life. Thank you!

What a Discrimination Lawyer Can Do for You

A discrimination lawyer specializes in handling cases where individuals or groups face unfair treatment based on protected characteristics, such as race, gender, age, religion, national origin, disability, or sexual orientation. These lawyers assist clients in filing discrimination claims, representing them in legal proceedings, and ensuring that their rights under federal, state, and local laws are upheld. Discrimination cases may arise in employment, housing, education, public accommodations, or other settings.

Whether you’ve been discriminated against at work, denied housing, or treated unfairly in other areas of life, a discrimination lawyer can help you navigate the legal process and seek compensation or corrective action.

When Should I Hire a Discrimination Lawyer?

You should consider hiring a discrimination lawyer in several situations where unfair treatment occurs based on protected characteristics. Common scenarios include:

Employment Discrimination:
- Workplace discrimination: If you’ve been treated unfairly at work because of your race, gender, disability, religion, age, sexual orientation, or another protected status, a lawyer can help you file a claim with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) or a similar state agency.
- Wrongful termination: If you were fired due to discrimination or retaliation for reporting discriminatory behavior, a lawyer can assist with filing a lawsuit and seeking compensation for lost wages, emotional distress, and other damages.
- Failure to promote: If you’ve been denied a promotion or opportunities due to discriminatory practices, a lawyer can investigate the claim and represent you in legal actions against your employer.
- Harassment: If you’ve experienced workplace harassment, such as sexual harassment or a hostile work environment based on your race, gender, or other characteristics, a lawyer can help you pursue legal remedies.
Housing Discrimination:
- Denial of housing: If you’ve been denied housing due to your race, disability, family status, or other protected factors, a lawyer can help you file a complaint with the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) or sue the landlord or property manager for violating the Fair Housing Act.
- Unfair rental practices: If a landlord or property manager treats you unfairly based on discriminatory factors (e.g., refusing reasonable accommodations for a disability), a lawyer can help you enforce your rights.
Education Discrimination:
- Discrimination in schools: If you or your child has faced discrimination in an educational setting based on race, disability, gender, or religion, a lawyer can help you file complaints under laws like Title VI, Title IX, or the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA).
Public Accommodations:
- Denial of services: If a business or public service has discriminated against you based on race, gender, disability, or other protected characteristics, a lawyer can assist you in filing a complaint or lawsuit under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) or other anti-discrimination laws.

Hiring a discrimination lawyer early can help protect your rights and ensure that your claim is filed within legal deadlines.

What Does a Discrimination Lawyer Do?

A discrimination lawyer provides a range of legal services to help individuals and groups fight against discriminatory practices. Their responsibilities often include:

Filing discrimination claims: A lawyer can help you file a complaint with government agencies, such as the EEOC, HUD, or your state’s human rights commission. They ensure that your claim is properly documented and filed within required time limits.
Investigating discrimination claims: Discrimination lawyers gather evidence, interview witnesses, and review documents to build a strong case for proving discriminatory practices.
Negotiating settlements: In many cases, a lawyer can negotiate a settlement with the employer, landlord, or other party involved in the discrimination case, seeking compensation or corrective action without going to trial.
Representing clients in court: If your case goes to court, a lawyer will represent you during hearings, present evidence, and argue your case before a judge or jury.
Handling retaliation claims: If you face retaliation for filing a discrimination complaint or reporting discriminatory practices, a lawyer can help you pursue a retaliation claim.
Advising on legal rights: A discrimination lawyer explains your legal rights under federal and state anti-discrimination laws, such as Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, the ADA, the Fair Housing Act, and others.

How Are Discrimination Lawyers Paid?

Discrimination lawyers typically charge for their services based on the complexity of the case and the expected duration of the legal process. Common payment structures include:

Contingency fee: Many discrimination lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, meaning they only get paid if they win or settle the case. Their fee is usually a percentage of the settlement or court award, typically ranging from 25% to 40%.
Hourly rate: For cases that don’t involve a contingency fee arrangement, some lawyers charge by the hour. Hourly rates for discrimination lawyers generally range from $200 to $600 or more, depending on the lawyer’s experience and the case’s complexity.
Flat fee: For simpler legal tasks, such as drafting a discrimination complaint or providing legal advice, some lawyers may charge a flat fee.
Pro bono or reduced fees: Some discrimination lawyers offer pro bono (free) or reduced-fee services, especially in cases involving low-income clients or significant civil rights issues.

It’s important to discuss fee arrangements during your initial consultation to ensure that you understand the total cost of legal services and how payment will be handled.

How Much Does a Discrimination Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a discrimination lawyer depends on factors like the complexity of the case, the lawyer’s experience, and the potential for a settlement or trial. General cost estimates include:

Contingency fees: If the lawyer works on a contingency basis, their fee will typically range from 25% to 40% of any settlement or court award. For example, if you win a settlement of $50,000 and the lawyer’s fee is 30%, they would receive $15,000, and you would keep the remaining $35,000.
Hourly rates: Discrimination lawyers who charge by the hour typically bill between $200 and $600 per hour. For example, a case that takes 20 hours of legal work at $300 per hour would cost $6,000 in legal fees.
Flat fees: Some legal services, such as filing a discrimination complaint or providing a legal consultation, may be available for a flat fee ranging from $500 to $2,500, depending on the complexity of the task.
Pro bono or sliding scale fees: In some cases, particularly for low-income individuals, lawyers may offer reduced fees or work pro bono.

Always ask for a detailed estimate of costs during your consultation, and clarify whether the lawyer offers flexible payment options.

How to Check the Credibility of a Discrimination Lawyer

To ensure you are hiring a reputable discrimination lawyer, take the following steps to verify their credentials and track record:

Check their bar status: Verify that the lawyer is licensed to practice law and in good standing with the state bar association. You can check this on your state bar’s website.
Look for discrimination case experience: Review the lawyer’s website or profile to ensure they specialize in employment law, civil rights, or discrimination cases and have successfully handled similar cases in the past.
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 their experience with the lawyer.
Ask for references: A reputable lawyer should be able to provide references from past clients who have worked with them on discrimination matters.
Check for certifications or memberships: Look for certifications or memberships in civil rights organizations or employment law associations, such as the National Employment Lawyers Association (NELA).

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To get the most out of your first consultation with a discrimination lawyer, it’s important to come prepared with relevant documents and information. Here’s what you should bring:

Detailed account of the discrimination: Provide a clear description of the discriminatory actions, including dates, locations, and individuals involved. Document specific incidents and any witnesses who can support your claim.
Workplace or housing records: Bring copies of relevant employment or housing documents, such as job performance evaluations, rental agreements, emails, or written correspondence related to the discrimination.
Company or organization policies: If the discrimination occurred in the workplace or housing, bring copies of company policies, employee handbooks, or housing agreements that outline anti-discrimination policies.
Evidence of damages: Provide evidence of any financial losses, such as lost wages, job termination, or increased rent, as well as emotional or psychological distress caused by the discrimination.
Previous complaints or actions: If you’ve filed previous complaints or taken any action related to the discrimination, such as reporting the issue to HR or filing a complaint with a government agency, bring copies of those documents.
Questions about the process: Prepare a list of questions about your legal options, potential outcomes, and the lawyer’s approach to handling your case.

By preparing thoroughly for your consultation, you can help the lawyer assess your situation more effectively and provide the best possible legal advice for pursuing your discrimination claim.
