I wanted to take a moment to thank the team at Sullivan & Brill for helping with my injury case. Monica was great, replied to emails and calls in a timely manner, kept me informed of updates to the case. Took a year to resolve and am truly thankful for their Sullivan & Brill's service.

Yogi Patel is an exceptional employment attorney. He provided me with timely and valuable guidance through a complicated separation from my former employer. He was well-informed and knowledgeable of labor laws, and a great communicator in speech and writing. Don’t let his calm demeanor and affable personality fool you, he is also a tough negotiator. He coached me through an evolving situation, working through various complex scenarios, and continually helped me understand my choices, identifying pros and cons and prospects for success. He fought tirelessly for me which ultimately resulted in a much better outcome for me.

I had an urgent legal matter that needed immediate attention. Without any delay whatsoever, on the day of the issue arising, Russ was able to strategize on the correct actions providing multiple options, and we selected the optimal strategy moving forward in order to deal with the problem. The turnaround was astounding, impressive, and much needed.
The issue was resolved the same day, and the immediate connection and ability to speak directly greatly helped everything within the process.
Unlike other law firms that you have to work through an army of admin assistants, working with Russ was easy, fast, and I received expert-level resolution without any back and forth or time wasted.
I always prefer working directly with the experts due to efficiency and getting the right answers instead of wasting time or any miscommunication and Russ's law practice was able to to resolve my issue efficiently and exceeded my expectations. Thank you, Russ, for all your support and expertise!

I was terminated by my employer and I thought I had a case. I was either ignored or turned away because of "conflicts of interest." Russell came by way of a referral from a Labor Rights website and I am so grateful. He really looked into my case and listened to me. When Russ believes in something, he's passionate about it. I don't know anything about law and he made sure to explain each phase and had multiple courses of actions so I always knew all my options and was fully involved in each decision. At first, I was so worried. My employer had a team of legal professionals and a lot of money to pour into litigation and I definitely do not. Russ was a one man army and handled each interaction with tact and grace. In the end, we won the claim and I know it was all due to 2 things; the truth and Russ. I will continue to recommend anyone having any issues with current or former employers to Russ.
Thank you for all your hard work and dedication. Thank you for all your patience and mental fortitude!

I was hesitant to contact an injury lawyer at first, as my accident was still fresh, but I am so glad I reached out and found Dan Smyth. He was massive help during a turbulent time.
I wish there were 10 stars on this review because I would give them all to Dan. I could not recommend him enough. He showed such compassion and took care of every little thing for me during the duration of my case. I relocated mid-case to the other side of the country and his communication and care did not waiver.
No question all other lawyers at the practice will possess the same great qualities.

Stephanie is the type of lawyer you would want on your side whenever you are facing an unfair justice, She took me under her wings during a time of need and cared enough to further research better terms for my stipulation agreement working strategically with the the opposing attorney to finish the matter outside of court, saving me time, money and unnecessary energy. You won't find a lawyer who is human and cares the way this firm does, I highly recommend it.

Hook and bait. Overpriced. Charges for everything single second, even for bathroom breaks. The lawyer is old as stone and slow. He coughs dust. Forgets things and should have retired 6 years ago. He’s not flexible with dates since he has early bedtimes and naps. Save yourself time and money. Go find yourself a younger lawyer with more stamina.

I was living a nightmare for almost four years. I sold my home and the buyers' attorney fell for a scam e-mail, wiring my mortgage payoff to a fraudulent account at my servicing bank. All of the funds were completely withdrawn from the fraudulent account in a few days. I had no idea that any of this happened until the bank deducted a mortgage payment from my account weeks later. After my real estate attorney discovered what happened, the bank was notified of the fraud and told me not to worry, and that they would freeze the account until the situation was rectified. The buyers' attorney refused to take any responsibility, claimed to be a victim, and never notified the buyers that their home was subject to a lien from an unsettled mortgage. The local police and the FBI were notified and investigated and found that the scammers succeeded in getting the funds overseas. Everyone involved in the transaction denied responsibility and then the bank denied saying that they would freeze the account and referred me to collections, destroying my credit and putting my security clearance and livelihood at risk. I hired Tim and PLG to represent me in this matter, and when the bank refused to even discuss what had happed, he filed a civil suit on my behalf. Tim and PLG were relentless in fighting for me and helping me navigate through dealing with my employer as my clearance was in jeopardy. Were it not for Tim, I would have lost my clearance and my job. Unfortunately, there is little recourse for victims of this type of fraud and it is impossible to fight major banks, insurance companies, and attorneys without having the best on your side. I was lucky to have Tim and PLG on my side and I received a favorable outcome. Tim is passionate about what he does, seeking justice for his clients, fighting for "the little guy"! I hope no one ever has to go through what I did, but if you do, you need Parlatore Law Group in your corner!

Mark was emotionally attentive and supportive from the start. His legal knowledge was reassuring and made me feel safe, but with particularly sensitive legal proceedings, support is necessary. Mark provides that. He is realistic and prioritizes the client’s comfort. Although it was a less complicated divorce proceeding, he was able to initiate it and bring it to a close within 6 months. I am forever grateful.

I had the most incredible experience being a client at Hamilton Clarke. Phil, in particular, not only handled my case with the utmost grace and professionalism, he also gave me the confidence in knowing that I had the support that I needed. Through every step of my legal case, I trusted that Phil, as well as other members of the firm were really there for me. They were easily accessible, made sure I fully understood what my process would look like, and fully committed to seeing things through for me. During one of the most toughest times that I've experienced in my life, Phil brought so much positivity to a situation that seemed so negative at the time. I was represented by not only an amazing attorney, but a very thorough, sharp, compassionate, go the extra mile human being, that I recommend to anyone who needed support. Thank you for all of your help on my case!

Phil is one excellent lawyer. He helped me get out and resolve a complex legal matter that lasted for several years. Once Phil was on the case I saw results and the issue got resolved. Phil is not only a brilliant attorney, sharp and always on point but he is also a great guy and I always feel confident when he handles my legal affairs. Alongside Phil I want to mention the entire team and especially Carl Forbes who represented me on a sell of a RE property and did a highly professional work for me! If you want the best service and expertise look no further than Hamilton Clarke! 5 stars in my book.

Collaborating with Adam and his assistant Ishwar made a horrible incident in my life turn out sooth and effortless and I am BEYOND grateful! Honestly, as a person who would have never thought I would’ve needed a lawyer, I dont know how things would have turned out if it weren’t for Adam. He had called me at the right time to take on my case. I was doing alot of calling around town and had just gotten off the phone with one lawyer who had zero confidence in herself , gave me no hope, and was absolutely no help. Adam was the complete opposite. His aggressive and positive efforts assured me that there was light at the end of the tunnel and that everything was going to be okay. He was confident the entirety of my case and was extremely thorough! He made sure no details went untouched and made sense of everything turning my entire case around! I’ll say it again, I am beyond grateful to Adam and his team! I would HIGHLY, HIGHLY RECOMMEND anyone who is in need of legal support to come here! The Best of the Best!

I've been a solo business owner for 25 years and for those first 15 when I needed legal assistance, it was usually prompted by proximity to someone's recommendation - I didn't even realize there were law firms that specialized in small business legal needs. I also thought a business of my size didn't require a dedicated lawyer. That is something only BIG companies, not my teeny tiny one should have. Upon meeting with Cliff Schneider ten years ago, I learned how flawed my logic was.
The practice is now my go-to for all legal concerns - they handle my multiple service agreements, trademark renewals and any potential issues. When I have questions that are not exclusively legal, but business related, Cliff provides extensive and comprehensive explanations. Although he may be a fast talker, he is never rushed or makes me feel as though my concerns aren't valid or legitimate. He kindly breaks down complex issues and advises me what would be the most beneficial.
Above all, Cliff is kind, generous, knowledgeable and feels like a partner in the success of my business.

I met Sabra Sasson when she was singing with a group of lawyers at a
Rehab. Center in Manhattan's U.E.S. (where my husband was a patient).
I spoke to Sabra as she had a pleasant smile and demeanor and I was interested in revising my will. I saved her tel. no. and called her when I was
ready to work on the will.
Sabra was amazing how she helped me with all the details. She carefully covered all the necessary areas that were needed.
I would highly recommend Sabra and her Law Group as she is knowledgeable, intelligent, caring, insightful, thoughtful and fair. In essence my experience working with Sabra and Sabra Law Group was
top-notch.

Top Questions to Ask a Family Law Lawyer
Before hiring a family law lawyer, it's important to ask questions to ensure they're the right fit for your case. Here are key questions to ask during your consultation:
-
What experience do you have with family law cases like mine?
Make sure the lawyer has experience handling cases similar to yours, whether it's a contested divorce, child custody dispute, or adoption. -
How will you charge for your services?
Clarify whether the lawyer charges by the hour, a flat fee, or requires a retainer. Ask for an estimate of the total costs involved. -
What are the possible outcomes of my case?
An experienced lawyer should be able to give you a general idea of what to expect based on the facts of your case. -
What is your approach to resolving disputes?
Ask whether the lawyer tends to favor negotiation and mediation or whether they prefer to take cases to court. This can help you determine if their style matches your goals. -

While it’s difficult to predict, the lawyer should give you an estimate based on similar cases. -
