I have used other services before and David's firm has by far been the absolute best. Initially I spoke with Jenn and she was very professional and knowledgeable and put my mind at ease. I knew I was in great hands when I spoke with her. David was awesome and worked my case with a sense of urgency that I needed. My account was reinstated faster than I expected. I will never choose any other firm to handle my issues with Amazon. I highly recommend!!!.

I recently had a consultation with Ali Shahrestani and I can't recommend him highly enough.

"Tim" Dennin has the experience, proven skill set, and track record to assess, understand, and lead the charge in achieving the best results to protect investors.

Tim leads clients on the straightest path from problem to resolution. I do not hesitate in recommending Tim Dennin. He is simply the best in protecting the rights of investors.

This was my first experience with an American attorney, in fact with any attorney.
I researched the internet and consulted my American friends with legal background (two retired lawyers) before contacting Mr Dennin.
At the outset I was impressed by his approach, which was encouraging: rigor of his questions, logic in reasoning.
Later I learned one of his basic principle that "preparation is everything", which I particularly liked.
Mr Dennin spend enough time to research all relevant material of the case.
On that basis he was in a position to prepare legal papers that were comprehensive and specific and supplemented by facts and most relevant legal precedents.
He took time to outline and explain to me legal proceedings, and consulted with me - in person, on the phone, via e-mail - on all important matters.
He presented me with copies of legal papers which allowed me to follow rather lengthy development of the case.
Mr Dennin's legal strategy was realistic and results oriented. This was particularly evident during a mediation event.
He was always available for me if I wanted to contact him.
I think that we have established a very good communication.
Being represented by him made me fill assured and comfortable.
As a person, I have found him a pleasant, courteous and ready to listen.
As a professional, he has vast experience spread over many years and success in defending rights of his clients.
All in all I think that Mr Dennin is a kind of attorney which I would recommend with full conviction.

I have known Gary for most of my life, and I can attest to his strong character, and his commitment to excellence both personally, and professionally.

Few attorneys possess the commitment, competence, and skills to handle the types of cases and issues as Gary does. He is honest, hard-working and selfless in his representation of his clients. In the more than 10 cases we have handled together, I have never ceased to be awed by his command and conviction to zealously represent our clients. I cannot recommend him enough to anyone in need of solid legal advice in the areas of employment law and social justice.

I highly recommend Gary Ireland for his compressive presentation on “Employment Law – Addressing Legal Issues During Employment Transition”. Gary engaged an audience of over 55 participants who were mostly 50+ and whose backgrounds ranged from middle to upper-level management. Gary received outstanding reviews for the program, with 96% stating that the program would be worth repeating in the future. Topics included Making Yourself Essential, Severance Agreements, Changing Positions, filing Complaints for Discrimination. Typical comments included “Timely overview and quality discussion on crucial elements of employment that are oftentimes not discussed” and “Atty Ireland is extremely knowledgeable and answered all questions presented to him in an excellent way. If I ever need an employment attorney, I'll definitely speak with him.” I highly recommend Gary Ireland as a presenter regarding employment matters.

Navigating a divorce is never easy, but Todd Spodek and his team especially Claire Lou made the process far less overwhelming. They took the time to listen to my concerns, explain my options clearly, and always kept my best interests in mind. Their responsiveness and ability to provide practical, well-thought-out advice made a difficult time much more manageable.
Thanks to their expertise and dedication, I felt confident and supported every step of the way. I’m incredibly grateful for their help and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone in need of an exceptional divorce attorney.

I asked Jonathan to review my employment agreement. I sent it to him on a Sunday, and he gave an answer in 30 minutes. In our follow up discussion at 9 PM (!) two days later, Jonathan was very thorough. He pointed out a number of flaws in the agreement. Ultimately, he put my mind at ease on the matter.
It is evident that Jonathan has many years of experience and great insights. I would definitely engage him again and I would highly recommend him to everyone.
Bottom line: Jonathan has great experience and knowledge and works 24/7 for clients - what can be better than that!

I still remember that morning when I was confused, scared, and lost in my situation. I had found Paul online and decided to call him very early on a Sunday morning. He spent a lot of time with me, helping me work through my case, even though I couldn't express myself clearly. It was a great experience working with him and his team from start to finish. They truly had a solid game plan, and the prices were more than reasonable compared to others. When you're in a moment of uncertainty and darkness, you need a trustworthy lawyer by your side, and Paul and his team delivered exactly that

Gets to court late if he even shows up at all. Doesn't answer calls most of the time. Disappointed my sister who was counting on him.

He made promises he couldn't keep
Didn't care about her.

I had the pleasure of working with Attorney Peng and Attorney Kong on my O-1B visa application last year, and I cannot express enough how grateful I am for their expertise and dedication throughout the process. From our initial consultation to the final approval, they demonstrated an exceptional understanding of the O-1B category and provided invaluable guidance tailored to my specific field. They were always available to address my questions, providing clear and concise explanations, making the complex immigration process much easier to navigate. I highly recommend their services to anyone seeking dedicated, knowledgeable, and highly professional attorneys for their immigration needs.

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!!!

Richard Roth is the consummate attorney. The scope and depth of his legal knowledge, courtroom and negotiating skills in commercial litigation has impressed me for the many years I have known him on a professional basis. If you are ever in need of a sharp, insightful and aggressive litigator, he is the one to call. His results speak for themselves!

To be perfectly clear I do not think that there is a smarter more effective litigator in the country. He has not represented me and won in federal court litigations, but also large scale arbs, and achieved results in both, as well as mediations, that well exceeded my wildest expectations. In a world drowning with lawyers, Richard truly sets himself apart not just by his superior work but the fact that he genuinely cares about his clients as people. He has fought for me with all of his heart ( literally ) and for the past 16 years I have chosen only Richard as my go to, trusted attorney. I have also referred him a MASSIVE AMOUNT OF BUSINESS and they are equally as satisfied.

I had an extremely disappointing experience with Sharova Law. I trusted them with my case, but it quickly became clear that they were disorganized and lacked the expertise they claimed to have. Communication was poor throughout the process—I rarely received updates, and when I did, they were vague or last-minute. my case was shuffled through three attorneys, which two of them left the firm.
Despite paying a thousands of dollars, the firm failed to properly handle key aspects of my case, leading to unnecessary court delays and a poor outcome had I had stayed with the firm. I feel like my concerns were not taken seriously, and they seemed more focused on collecting fees than achieving results.
I would not recommend this firm to anyone seeking reliable legal representation. I regret trusting them with my case and would advise others to look elsewhere for a competent attorneys.

As a former member of the New Rochelle City Council I have worked with many attorneys. Stephen Donaldson is above and beyond the best!! He is grace and class under pressure which is so rare these days. Stephen helped with my recent sale of my home. He was outstanding and so helpful in the plethora of advice and information that can too often seem overwhelming to process. Stephen efficiently and calmly guides and supports you every step of the way. If you were to call central casting and ask for the perfect attorney to help you, Stephen would be it. If you want the best attorney in the Hudson Valley, call him right away

Stephen Donaldson, exemplifies everything one could hope for when seeking legal help. Stephen has been a part of my life for 5+ Years and has been serving as co guardian of my brother. He’s a life saver, as mentioned in the reviews below he is Kind, understanding, and brilliant.
While his practice may have shifted to a different type of Law, there isn’t anyone else I’d call first for advice, guidance and legal help. I’d want him in my corner any day of the week.
The world could use more folks like Stephen.
Thanks for your time and help over the years it’s been a blessing.

There's no amount of money that could buy out the suffering with headache's and everything else that goes along with the tumor, but the people (same people who made some COVID injections) (Pfizer) let millions of women get the Depo- Provera shot for over a decade while neglecting to label the side affect that it could cause brain tumors. At least they could do is compensate/ Settle out of court with us women who did develop a brain tumor due to their negligence

Israel was recommended to me by a colleague at the large international law firm where I work. I retained him to represent a low-income friend whose neighbor filed a frivolous and baseless claim in Small Claims (Kings County) . Israel did a superb job. He explained things clearly, was very kind to the client (who is elderly and was frightened), and he was a forthright and fearless advocate in all appropriate ways. I work with excellent attorneys all year long, and now he is on that list.

I was fortunate to have found Paul! I tasked him with writing my prenup, and he was attentive and helpful throughout the entire process. I had zero prior experience with marital law, and I came to him with a ton of loose ideas for what my partner and I were looking for in the document. I knew it would be a difficult task to come to an agreement between all parties, and draft a legal document that satisfied everyone’s interests, but Paul came through. We worked together, and I found him very personable and easy to work with. He was able to break-down complex topics easily for me to understand and was extremely meticulous. Prenups can be a difficult endeavor for the parties involved, but Paul made the process extremely doable. We ultimately achieved the perfect document for our needs, which I am very grateful for. Will be recommending him to my friends and colleagues. If you need a prenup lawyer, Paul is your man.

Just wanted to let everyone know that Konstantin Burshteyn is one of the greatest lawyers ever. He fought for me relentlessly and always was available even in some of my darkest times during my injury and recovery. His team at Wingate were always ready to help and available without delay. I don't think you would be able to find anyone better at representing you than this man. Don't waste your time with any other firm, these people know how to get outstanding results and life changing outcomes. His professionalism is second to none. As a former member of the operating engineers I would recommend any union member for his help when injured because of his extensive experience with labor laws and how our benefits are structured.

On a good day Guardianship can be confusing and challenging, especially for a new Guardian. You are constantly familiarizing yourself with new information pertaining to a wide array of topics that come along quickly and consistently. At times you require help and insight from those with more experience specific to the legal intricacies that you may suddenly be encountering. I am thankful that in the vast sea of attorneys to choose from, that I was referred to Alison Arden Besunder of Goetz Fitzpatrick to assist me and the Guardianship in addressing an appeal brought on unexpectedly. Appellate work appears: unique to your case, detail focused, time consuming and requires nuanced skill and approach in response and execution. Ms. Besunder and the members of her team understood the record at hand and responded professionally, with a tone that was very much welcome and tracking with my efforts and focus as Guardian. They were: kind to me, understanding of the situation, communicative, along with being clear in their directions and in the answering of my questions. Ms. Besunder's experience and knowledge along with the efforts and kindness of her team in dealing with this legal matter were welcome during this unexpected and challenging time. Ms. Besunder and Goetz Fitzpatrick have represented me as Guardian and responded to the appeal on my behalf- which I'm very thankful of their efforts. Highly recommended and much appreciated.

What a Lawsuit / Dispute Lawyer Can Do for You
A lawsuit or dispute lawyer, often referred to as a litigation lawyer, specializes in handling legal conflicts between individuals, businesses, or organizations. These lawyers represent clients in civil lawsuits, helping to resolve disputes through negotiation, mediation, arbitration, or litigation in court. They can assist with a wide range of disputes, including contract disagreements, property disputes, business conflicts, personal injury claims, and more.
If you are involved in a legal conflict and need representation, a dispute lawyer can guide you through the litigation process - from filing or defending against a lawsuit to negotiating settlements or representing you at trial.
When Should I Hire a Lawsuit / Dispute Lawyer?
You should consider hiring a lawsuit or dispute lawyer when you're involved in a legal disagreement that cannot be resolved informally and may require legal action. Common reasons to hire a lawyer include:
- Breach of contract: If someone has failed to fulfill the terms of a contract, a lawyer can help you file a lawsuit to seek damages or enforce the agreement.
- Business disputes: Whether it's a partnership disagreement, shareholder conflict, or a dispute with a supplier or customer, a lawyer can help resolve business-related issues.
- Property disputes: If you're involved in a dispute over property ownership, boundary issues, or landlord-tenant conflicts, a lawyer can assist in resolving the matter.
- Personal injury claims: If you were injured due to someone else's negligence and are seeking compensation, a lawyer can represent you in a personal injury lawsuit.
- Debt collection or defense: If you're being sued for unpaid debts or need to collect a debt owed to you, a lawyer can represent you in court or negotiate settlements.
- Employment disputes: If you're involved in an employment-related dispute, such as wrongful termination or discrimination, a lawyer can help you file a claim and represent you in court.
- Defending against a lawsuit: If you've been sued, a lawyer can defend you against the claims, challenge the evidence, and negotiate a settlement or represent you at trial.
Hiring a lawyer early in the process can help ensure that your case is properly managed and that your rights are protected throughout the dispute resolution process.
What Does a Lawsuit / Dispute Lawyer Do?
A lawsuit or dispute lawyer provides a wide range of services to help clients navigate legal conflicts and seek resolution. Their tasks typically include:
- Evaluating your case: Reviewing the facts and evidence to determine the strength of your case or defense and advising you on the best course of action.
- Filing lawsuits or responding to lawsuits: If you're the plaintiff, the lawyer will file a lawsuit on your behalf. If you're the defendant, they will respond to the lawsuit and build a defense strategy.
- Gathering evidence: Collecting and reviewing evidence such as contracts, emails, financial records, and witness statements to support your case.
- Handling negotiations: Negotiating with the opposing party to reach a settlement before the case goes to trial, which can save time and money.
- Representing you in court: Presenting your case in court if a settlement cannot be reached, including presenting evidence, questioning witnesses, and making legal arguments on your behalf.
- Exploring alternative dispute resolution (ADR): Suggesting mediation or arbitration as alternatives to a trial, which can be faster and less expensive.
- Drafting legal documents: Preparing and filing necessary legal documents such as complaints, motions, and responses, as well as drafting settlement agreements if a resolution is reached.
How Are Lawsuit / Dispute Lawyers Paid?
The fee structure for lawsuit or dispute lawyers varies depending on the complexity of the case, the type of dispute, and the lawyer's experience. Common payment methods include:
- Hourly rate: Many lawsuit lawyers charge by the hour, especially for cases that require extensive preparation, research, and trial work. Hourly rates typically range from $150 to $500 or more, depending on the lawyer’s experience and location.
- Contingency fee: In certain cases, such as personal injury or breach of contract claims, a lawyer may work on a contingency fee basis. This means they only get paid if they win the case, usually taking a percentage (typically 25% to 40%) of the settlement or damages awarded.
- Flat fee: For specific services, such as filing a simple lawsuit or representing you in mediation, some lawyers may charge a flat fee.
- Retainer: In complex cases or long-term litigation, a lawyer may ask for a retainer, which is an upfront payment to secure their services. The lawyer will then bill against the retainer as they work on the case.
Discuss the fee structure with your lawyer during the initial consultation to understand how fees will be handled throughout the case.
How Much Does a Lawsuit / Dispute Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a lawsuit or dispute lawyer depends on the complexity of the case, the lawyer's experience, and the fee structure they use. General cost estimates include:
- Hourly rates: Lawyers may charge between $150 and $500 per hour, with higher rates for more experienced attorneys or cases requiring extensive trial preparation.
- Contingency fees: If your lawyer works on a contingency basis, expect them to take 25% to 40% of any settlement or court award. For example, if you win $100,000 and the contingency fee is 33%, the lawyer would receive $33,000.
- Flat fees: For less complex disputes or tasks, such as drafting a settlement agreement or representing you in mediation, flat fees may range from $1,000 to $5,000, depending on the scope of work.
- Retainers: Some lawyers require an upfront retainer fee, which can range from $5,000 to $20,000 or more, depending on the case complexity and expected litigation length.
Make sure to ask for a detailed breakdown of fees during your consultation so you know what to expect.

-
What experience do you have with cases like mine?

- Check their bar status: Confirm with your state bar association that the lawyer is licensed and has no disciplinary actions.
- Look for relevant experience: Review their website or professional profile to ensure they specialize in litigation or dispute resolution.
- Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for feedback on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google.
- Ask for references: A credible lawyer should provide references from past clients.
- Check for professional affiliations: Membership in organizations like the American Bar Association’s Section of Litigation can indicate expertise.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To make the most of your initial meeting, bring the following:
- Contracts or agreements: Copies of any signed contracts or relevant agreements.
- Emails and communications: Any written communication between you and the other party.
- Evidence of the dispute: Receipts, financial records, photos, or witness statements related to the conflict.
