I wouldn't recommend this law firm !
This is not a bogus review! I was one of their client's. However, they dropped my case, and I have proof. Wow ! So, if you read the lawyer comment below that how they're treat their clients clearly 🤔 displays disrespectful words and can't take criticism well. Furthermore, none of the information below is correct! Someone has amnesia, it took them a whole year what a waste 🗑 of time.

I'm a disabled person who is currently being harassed by Nancy from this firm on behalf of the Town of Pawling who is and was discriminating against my rights as a disabled person living in a rental home that violates state laws and tenants rights. they have gone out of their way to enable the building department, who had been refusing to do their jobs for weeks, fully aware that my health is being negatively impacted everyday by the presence of mold, possible asbestos, leaking pipes, faulty electrical work, landlord harassment, and much more. The building department secretary, Mary, created a situation that never should have existed and that she refused to deescalate and for that I will pursue holding her personally legally accountable. If you're a disabled person you should avoid this law firm as they probably won't treat you like a human being.

Some ginger guy agreed to be my lawyer but he kept insisting I take his 'vision'? He also said "Hey girlie hold still'" a lot. He was strange but 10/10 would recommend! I even got to fight a strange whale at the end of it all.

I asked this guy to be my lawyer for something regarding a vision and he said "Sure thing girlie, I'll take care of it." And he somehow got thrown into jail. Next thing I know, a big whale emerges through the floor. It was a very odd experience having him as my lawyer but he's chill enough.

4 months ago Mom was sent to a nursing home for rehab and then was transferred to long term care. We fought long and hard to get her out and bring her home. We were given excuse after excuse as to why she needed to stay there. Without Nicholas Khayumov and his team none of this would have been possible! Mom is now home where she belongs being cared for by her family. We are looking forward to many happy days ahead. We cannot thank you enough!

I called Mr. Gacovino when my son got into a pretty serious car accident while he was delivering pizza for a local pizza shop. He is the ultimate professional, very easy to communicate with always there to answer my questions and walk us through the process. I would highly recommend his services and will absolutely work with him and his firm again in the future. Thank you Mr. Gacovino for making a VERY stressful situation a lot more barrable!

Sean O Hara has no business in law, came off nice, seemingly, except he contradicted himself several times. Claiming he never heard from the company, but knew where they sent my w-2…Did nothing for nine months and when I gave him crucial information he tried to get money, completely unaware that I had another attorney related to this case. His terrible work caused me to go through their employees and that’s a no for me dog, all white men. Fired and replaced. Don’t waste your time, not my first rodeo, but apparently his. Mind you the case was easy, pictures, text messages and he blew it, lazy, lazy, lazy. Easily the most important client you’ll ever have too.

Aaron Ferri consulted with me on a matter, and his insight and professionalism is something I don’t experience everyday. He is proficient, thorough, incredibly articulate and responsive. He and his firm are reliably competent and highly successful. You should definitely consider them if you have labor issues and require representation. I’d give them more stars if there were more to give than five.

Aaron Ferri and Scott Cholewa at Leeds Brown Law handled my case with such professionalism and expertise! I can't thank them enough for the attention they paid to my case, even as it spanned over a number of years. They never lost focus, communicated regularly as the case progressed, and fought for me until the end! Leeds Brown Law is the place to go for good, honest representation. If I were to ever need a lawyer again, I would definitely be calling Aaron and Scott!

Just wanted to Thank you for all your hard work on my case! I know it was a long tedious road! But! A special Thanks to Katie, she was such a doll! She always got right back to me in minutes if not seconds when I emailed her or left messages! And I never have gone thru anything like this before, so painful, and frustrating, she made it less painful! Im sure I was quite annoying too! With my million ?'s! Katie even helped answer some questions, when my SS lawyer, couldn't be bothered! When you get hurt at work it's so hard to know what to do , and it's so scary with the bills and medical, I'm here to tell you the first thing you should do is call David Snyder's Law Firm and his Very Understanding and Friendly Staff!
Thank You Again!

Tracey Daniels and Seamus McDonough helped us in the sale of a 1-bedroom apartment in Brooklyn. They were both knowledgeable and great communicators and the cost for their services was fair. I highly recommend Daniels O'Connell PC.

I had a difficult time communicating with Tracey. Specifically, I asked her to "clarify" why the final bill was more than "twice" the estimate she gave. Her response was "I will put down my pen" if you do not pay. No clarification. In fact her response is against the code of ethics for the New York Bar which advocates resolving disputes "amicably". Tracey was not resolving disputes "amicably" in this instance. In fact, she is often less than "amicable", and unprofessional, if she feels challenged.
As well, her office "makes mistakes". For example, I have the same documents notarized "twice" because they "expired". The reason they "expired" is because we were missing a Certificate of Death. I expect Tracey to be on top of required documentation and not come up "short" the last minute.
Bottom line, the transaction took six months because of Tracey's lack of attention to details (such as the missing Certificate of Death). To rub salt on the wound, she charged more than twice the estimate because it took "so long" to close.
Do not recommend.

We had a complex sale and purchase that needed to be carefully coordinated and happen as close together as possible. Tracey and her entire team worked seamlessly to ensure that everything took place without a hitch. They communicated clearly and timely with me every step of the way and made sure I understood everything as we went along.
