Attorney Dan Trunk was so caring and helpful during a most trying accident. It took almost 5 years to reach a settlement but Dan was there by my side the whole time. It was a complicated case due to separate municipalities involved. But in the end, Dan won for me! Thanks!!

Let’s be honest... no one wants to need an attorney, ever!
However, if you do, as we did, this is THE only firm to consider on LI. From partners, Rob and Sarah, to junior attorneys, associates and support staff, their services are simply unmatched.
And wowza! There’s even a real human, extremely competent, receptionist that answers the telephone. No push this and speak that and try to muddle thru some silly automated phone system; a consistent personal, caring approach to business at every level.
Rob Valli is thorough, on point and straight forward, mixed with kindness and compassion. Don’t mistake his kindness for weakness, tho! He can be a “bulldog”, if necessary and definitely precisely when needed. make no mistake, he knows his business and gets the job done.
There’s no “sugar coating“ and telling you what you want to hear, refreshing! He, and his associates at every level, provide everything you need and want on your side. Strong communication skills are a must for me and they deliver information clearly and concisely. Always, in a professional and succinct comprehensive manner. They know lay of land on LI and have the skill set to get job done.
Recently, I was asked how I know Rob when referring him, again. I paused... just for a moment and said “...Rob is my friend!”. I suddenly realized I do consider him my friend. I trust him implicitly, he’s kind, thoughtful and adds a true human element. It’s exactly what we all want and need when we unfortunately find we need an attorney. What more would you ask for in a friend!?
I’d use Rob for any and all legal needs and highly recommend him, and his firm, to anyone looking for a complete legal team package. It simply doesn’t get any better.
Don’t look any further, he and his colleagues are it!

Danielle is a very responsive, diligent and caring attorney. Her motions and filings are well thought out and highly professional. Danielle will work hard and she will put in the extra effort to help you. Some divorce attorneys do not perform well during a trial, however, that is not the case with Danielle. Before the trial even begins, Danielle will show up well prepared, well organized and she will be ready. Danielle is a highly confident trial attorney and she will demonstrate her years of relevant experience during the actual trial. It is important to have confidence that should your case go to trial that you have a competent trial attorney. Danielle is also very responsive to my phone calls and always provides sound legal advice.

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.

The receptionist does not even know what kind of law the law firm covers and is just interested in collecting your contact info. Don't waste your time here.

update: My insurance paid for the attorney's time (you are making it seem like it was a free consultation) for this services. I paid my insurance with my money. Yes, indeed, this is not a free service but a paid consultation. It seems the attorney hung up on me rather than the call being disconnected because I called back, emailed, and texted the office afterward, but nobody responded, apologized, or at least returned my call. His last words before the call ended—or was disconnected, based on his own words—were that "his time is valuable." Such an unprofessional and stuck-up attitude. I was never informed beforehand that I only had 45 minutes to talk.
I believe I talked to Ron Cook. We had an appointment at 4 PM today, and while he was helpful in sending the information, he seemed annoyed when I asked questions. He expects me to read everything on my own and doesn’t want to provide further explanations when I asked him to give me a simple breakdown of how things work again because I was a little confused, and he did not want to provide all the information. He is getting payed to explain things, not to dismiss our concerns. He even mentioned that his time is valuable, but isn’t that exactly why he is getting paid—for his time and expertise? By the end of the conversation he hung up the phone, it felt unprofessional.
This experience reinforces my decision to go to law school. There’s clearly an opportunity in the market for professionals who know how to communicate effectively and treat clients with respect, no matter where they come from or what questions they ask. So far, 7 out of 10 attorneys seem to be quite stuck-up simply for having a JD and whatever piece of paper they get from the government. similar to medical doctors.

I appreciate Anthony for his great Professionalism, his ability to get the job done, and his responsiveness. Throughout the entire process, he held open communications to keep me within the loop and also provide me reassurance.
My ticket was a right in a non-turning zone during certain hours of the day at a stop sign. He was able to turn it into a no-point and a timely result within 3 months.
I hired him for his expertise and can't thank him enough for providing me a great result for my case. I will be recommending Anthony Guistino for all my traffic-related matters. Thank You Again Anthony!

With a house full of drivers, I've had experiences with other attorneys who have fought traffic tickets for me. Most simply negotiate the points and fines with the district attorney.
Anthony Giustino went the extra mile. He filed a motion that challenged the ticket's validity. He won. My ticket was dismissed. No fine. No points. His fee was far less than any conviction would have cost.
Want to deal with a gentleman? Someone who gives you time, someone who listens? This is the man you need.
Thank you Mr. Giustino.

To answer: I was never given the option to become a client of your firm.
Your offices reviewed my matter and declined to represent me.
I don't have a problem with this, but what does bother me (and the reason for my 1 star review) is that your attorney didn't even offer a cursory explanation of why he declined to represent me. He simply had his secretary call and tell me that he wouldn't pursue the matter.
It's a lack of basic professionalism, and bothered me enough to rate your firm 1 star.

What a Sexual Harassment Lawyer Can Do for You
A sexual harassment lawyer specializes in representing individuals who have experienced unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, or other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature that affects their employment or creates a hostile work environment. These lawyers help victims understand their rights under federal and state laws, such as Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, and guide them through the process of filing complaints, negotiating settlements, or pursuing litigation. They also assist employers in implementing anti-harassment policies, conducting investigations, and defending against claims.
Whether you're an employee facing harassment or an employer seeking to address or prevent harassment claims, a sexual harassment lawyer can provide the legal expertise needed to navigate these sensitive issues.
When Should I Hire a Sexual Harassment Lawyer?
You should consider hiring a sexual harassment lawyer in the following situations:
-
For Employees:
- Experiencing workplace harassment: If you are subjected to unwelcome sexual advances, comments, or behavior that creates a hostile or offensive work environment, a lawyer can help you understand your rights and the steps to take.
- Retaliation for reporting harassment: If you've reported harassment to your employer and are facing retaliation such as demotion, termination, or other adverse actions, a lawyer can help protect your rights.
- Failure of employer to address complaints: If your employer does not take appropriate action after you've reported harassment, a lawyer can advise on how to escalate the matter legally.
- Constructive dismissal: If the harassment is so severe that you feel forced to resign, a lawyer can help you pursue a claim for constructive dismissal.
- Negotiating settlements: If you're considering a settlement with your employer, a lawyer can negotiate on your behalf to ensure you receive fair compensation.
-
For Employers:
- Receiving a harassment complaint: If an employee has filed a harassment complaint, a lawyer can guide you through the legal obligations for investigating and addressing the complaint.
- Implementing anti-harassment policies: A lawyer can help you develop and implement policies and training programs to prevent harassment and protect your organization legally.

Hiring a lawyer early can help ensure that your rights are protected and that you take the appropriate legal steps.

How Are Sexual Harassment Lawyers Paid?

- Hourly rate: Lawyers representing employers usually charge by the hour, with rates ranging from $200 to $600 or more, depending on their experience and the case complexity.
- Retainer: Employers may pay a retainer fee for ongoing legal services, especially if they require regular legal counsel on employment matters.
It's important to discuss fees during the initial consultation to understand the cost structure and any additional expenses.
