My family and I needed a probate attorney. We needed to settle my mother’s estate after she passed away. I looked for a probate attorney and they never got back with me after leaving several messages and I had to keep calling. When I did received a call back they did not explain the process just told me what their fee was and I had to pay it upfront. Needless to say I seek help from someone else. I called Mr. Lorenzo on a Saturday afternoon and he answered and explained the process of what to be expected. He sounded very knowledgeable and also caring. I felt so relieved after speaking to him and I knew I had found the right attorney. Mr. Lorenzo was there for my family and I through a difficult time and case. Mr. Lorenzo showed us empathy and trust which are two important factors to me.Through out the process he kept us informed of every detailed of the case. I’m so glad we did not stay with the other attorney. We made the right choice. I would highly recommend Mr. Lorenzo to others who are looking for a caring and trustworthy attorney who is knowledgeable of the law. Thank you Mr. Lorenzo. My family and I are very grateful to you.

Jennifer Waterway guided me through the entire process with compassion and professionalism in this difficult, confusing and complicated time.
She was always right on point and explained the pros and cons of my particular case.
She helped me tremendously through the entire process and listened attentively to my needs.
She was always quick to answer my calls and kept me informed at all times.
Jennifer was an excellent advocate during this stressful emotional roller coaster called a Divorce.
She has great communication skills, strong ability and willingness to listen in difficult times.
I also want to recognize her assistant Maribel and all her office staff for making me feel at ease.
Too many people fail to put in the time and effort to fully understand and comprehend what the client need or say.
Jennifer had to clean the mess I was left with by prior representation and got me to mediation within few month and finalized the divorce in timely manner.
I couldn’t have done without Jennifer and glad I found her.
I highly recommend Jennifer for her hard work ethic and perseverance, knowledges, responsiveness and great communication skills.

When divorce hits you unexpectedly you find yourself scrambling to sort out your life. Finances, where to live, how to cope emotionally, and then there are the legal aspects to deal with. You need someone you can trust to help you navigate the process.
That is what Jennifer Waterway did for me. She guided and educated me about the law and my rights. I always felt that she advocated for me especially through the process of dividing a marriage financially. She listened and helped me learn to think about divorce in terms of the legal aspects (when I was overwhelmed by emotions!). She helped me come to a reasonable result. I highly recommend her services. Thank you, Jennifer.

The most important thing for me was that Brian Karpf initially was very positive that he could help me reduce my permanent alimony. Brian explained to me the entire process and guided me through how the legal process would work.
Brian was very diligent about keeping my legal expenses as low as possible. Brian made sure that the Associate attorney's did as much of the leg work as possible.
I was also impressed with how fast my calls, emails and texts were responded to.
In the end , an amicable mediation was achieved. I was very satisfied with my representation

I was referred to Levinson & Capuano because my ex was not supporting my daughter with a prior agreement. I felt so hopeless, bulldozed and tried to avoid legal action for fear of cost and just nastiness in general but I could no longer afford to go on without any child support from my ex.
Amanda, Arielle and Cary were very caring, reassuring when things got heated and I am pleased to announce we were able to settle via mediation instead of a nasty court case. The cost was less than I was quoted from other firms and I was happy with a peaceful resolution. I highly recommend them and if I ever needed help again in similar matters I won't hesitate to contact them again.

I recently saw Mike about a commercial leasing matter, and he is a truly reliable, dependable, committed, hard-working attorney.

Mike assisted my husband and I with the documents on the sale of our house; as well as our wills. He was very knowledgeable and professional with all proceedings. When it came to our wills, he was able to provide guidance on questions as to how to direct assets such that the process would be easy for our executors. While simplified, it accomplished what both my husband and I had in mind from a beneficiary standpoint.
Mike is extremely trustworthy. We left power of attorney with Mike when we closed on our home, as we would not be present at the time of closing. He was also able to counsel us during the sale process, as counter-offers were not the most straight forward.
I would highly recommend Mike to a friend or a colleague; and, would not hesitant to use Mike again for my own personal legal counsel.

Glenn was able to secure a substantial settlement from a health insurance company based on a contract dispute. The case settled before commencing arbitration resulting in significant savings in time and legal expenses. I believe the ability to communicate to opposing counsel his understanding of the facts in preparation for the case was a major reason for the expeditious settlement.

Andrea Gundersen has been representing me for over 1 year now. I was fortunate enough to find her at the time that I did. She's literally been the biggest blessing , I like to call her a Miracle.
Andrea Gundersen has brought life and hope back to what seemed to be a very dark place at one point. She's been my family's lifeline.
As we all know, Family Law cases can be extremely sensitive and draining, and at times seem impossible to deal with. Andrea Gundersen has always made me feel secure and confident and very hopeful throughout this difficult process.
Andrea Gundersen has extensive knowledge in Family Law and has tons of experience. She is super sharp, aggressive and very intense. I could not ask for a better litigator. She is a SHARK in that courtroom. She has the degree of strength and capacity that this job demands. She is FIERCE!!! Her knowledge for the law speaks for itself. She always exceeds my expectations. I feel totally protected when she is sitting by my side representing me.
With that said, at the same time she manages to be one of the most compassionate and understanding persons I have been fortunate enough to encounter throughout my life.
Andrea Gundersen has a very unusual way of explaining the law, and its
process and procedures that makes it very easy to understand exactly what is happening.
She is very realistic, straight forward, and honest. She has never left me with a question or concern unanswered. She is overall a amazing person and the best Attorney in the entire UNIVERSE!!!
I write this review for Andrea Gundersen with great honor. Whomever chooses to be represented by her will have made the best decision of their lives. Andrea Gundersen is 100% reliable, responsible, diligent, caring, and EXTREMELY BRILLIANT!!! She fights for her clients like no-one else.
Thanks to all her hard work, and all her countless hours of nothing but pure brilliance and passion she puts into her cases ..I am able to sleep in peace at night knowing that I have the best representation possible. It does not get better than Andrea R Gundersen "Family Law".
Who Andrea Gundersen is and what she represents is priceless!!! I am and will always be truly grateful God put her in my path!!!

I am most honored to be writing this review for Andrea Gundersen. My case was extremely difficult and with my inital phone conversation, prior to even hiring her, she took the time to explain the law and provide insight on my options. She showed care and concern before meeting me and taking my case. Once hired, she immediately started working on the case and throughout her concern was always - the best interest of the child. She spoke to you(not at you) by explaining the law so that you can understand - each step of the way. She is an extremely intelligent and professional woman that cares about her clients. I highly recommend this attorney.

As the owner of an 18 year old Internet company, I had the pleasure of working directly with Lori on several employee/HR issues. Lori was responsive, offered very good advice and put forth ideas which we, quite honestly, had never even considered.
In addition, Lori was available even on weekends as some of the assistance she was giving our company was time sensitive and extremely confidential.
We would definitely re-hire Lori for future legal matters.

I have had legal matters and litigation with Ms. Atlass and she was exceptionally effective on behalf of her clients, as well as highly professional. I recently used her services as a mediator, and she resolved the prototypical unsettleable case gainst all odds. She demonstarted an unusual level of insight into the issues and the personalities of the parties, she was upbeat and easy to work with, and she stayed until late in the evening in order to get the job done.

Long overdue review, but better late than never. I consulted with Kristen in early 2020, right after the consultation I was really happy, she was right to the point, she was very attentive. She understood the assignment and got it done. Within a few months of hiring her and after years of fighting and searching for the right lawyer to represent me. It only took Kristen a few months to help me to obtain my son's documents, she represented me very well. Thank you Kristen. I haven't forgotten your good works towards me and my son. I am forever grateful.

Vincent Law was able to successfully defend me in my landlord-tenant dispute. After vacating my unit and leaving the premises in impeccable condition, the landlord had decided not to follow the statue and not return my security deposit. With the help of Arthur Vincent I was able to receive my full security deposit and legal fees. Mr. Vincent was a reassuring presence throughout the legal proceedings and made sure that the law was followed. Based on my experience, I would certainly recommend Vincent Law to others who may need legal assistance in similar matters. It is always reassuring to have an experienced and knowledgeable lawyer on your side, and Mr. Vincent was that lawyer.

I had an extremely disappointing experience with this law office. Over the course of 8 months, there was no clear strategy or meaningful advice provided by the attorney. It felt like my case was being dragged on unnecessarily, with no real effort to reach a settlement or move things forward. Instead of receiving proactive legal guidance, the case seemed to be left to 'go with the flow,' which left me feeling misrepresented and frustrated. I would not recommend this office to anyone seeking effective family law representation.

He took special care to understand the issues in my case and the needs of my family during a difficult time. In my opinion, his office never let anything fall to the wayside. They were on top of it. It is clear that Dan has a wealth of knowledge and experience. I always felt confident in him. He never made me feel like I had to concede on the things that were important to me in this case. If you need a strong lawyer, go with Daniel Forrest!

I was unfortunately involved in a serious auto accident that involved a county school bus that hit me after running a stop sign, my car was totaled and I was injured and required surgery and was out of work for about 9 weeks. I was referred to Blake Dolman for legal advice and representation. The county's initial offer for compensation was ridiculous. Blake and his team worked very hard for months to make sure that I got the amount that I was entitled to after this terrible accident, they involved me at every step and did not allow the county to minimized the damage caused to me, my life and my job. I can very strongly recommend Blake Dolman to get the job done and make sure you feel heard and cared for and he will get you the compensation you deserve for your injuries, your time and your trauma after an accident.

What a Mediation Lawyer Can Do for You
A mediation lawyer specializes in resolving disputes outside of the courtroom through a process called mediation. Mediation involves a neutral third-party mediator who helps the disputing parties reach a mutually acceptable agreement. Mediation lawyers can represent clients in various matters, including divorce, business disputes, employment conflicts, contract issues, personal injury claims, and more.
Unlike litigation, mediation is a less adversarial and more cost-effective way to settle disputes, often leading to faster resolutions and preserving relationships between the parties involved.
