Recently we were hit with an outrageously frivolous civil lawsuit. As someone who never had any experience with the court system, we had no idea where to start. We only had 3 weeks to hearing and I frantically called every lawyer in town and surrounding area, but everyone was booked or wouldn’t even return the call. A terrifying place to be. I called this firm and I was promptly transferred to Mr. Schwartz. (WOW! A FIRST!) He listened to my story, asked me some details about the case. I emailed him the court papers and some of my supporting evidence. Quite a bit of it too. He took the time to evaluate the case, consult with his partners, and next day agreed to represent us on such a short notice. Due to logistics, we ended up hiring a local lawyer. (and pray we didn’t make a mistake) Mr. Schwartz was extremely gracious when I told him we’ll go with this other person, wished me all the best, and said he would gladly assist me in the future, if the need ever arises. Not a word about his time spent on my behalf or mention of a payment owed to him. The humanity and character of this lawyer was absolutely astounding, especially after going through the despair of not finding any legal help anywhere else. I SO wish he was local!!! I felt comfortable talking to him, I didn’t feel rushed or a burden. He was not condescending, as most lawyers are I find out, but warm, patient, with a healthy dose of humor, which God knows I needed, didn’t make empty promises, but gave me a realistic picture of the process involved. (also a sobering one). Now, that I blew my chance to have him in my court, if I only get lucky enough that he would not represent the plaintiff! That’s how good I think he is. A shout out to all unresponsive lawyers/firms out there: take a lesson from this gentleman on how to treat a potential client in distress. Return the call in a timely manner, even if you won’t take the case: just say so! It’s common courtesy, so we can move on to the next person. In my experience with him, Mr. Schwartz proved to be an absolute 10* first class act. Highly recommend him (just not to my plaintiff…)

Mr Schwartz is someone you want on your team. He is reliable, resourceful, and has a strong sense of justice. He believed in my cause and he helped me win my case.
