Pros
1
Excellent, knowledgeable, and responsive legal representation
“Peter Calabrese handled a case against the mishandling of the security deposit by my landlord. Very analytical he walked me through the legal options, and laid out the methods, time and money needed to follow through with each option and which possible outcomes each one may have. Very methodological and professional. Highly recommend!”
2
Effective communication and client-focused approach
“Amber Lee was an impressive advocate for me. She helped resolve an issue with a previous employer regarding back wages owed. She was knowledgeable and skilled but also truly empathic to my situation. I knew my case was in good hands and I had one less thing to worry about which absolutely helped make this process more bearable.”
3
Thorough and timely legal services
“Danielle and her team did a fantastic job guiding me through a lengthy and curbensome immigration process! My situation was very unique given the issues and they were always professional, courteous, and above all understanding and patient as we put together the documentation needed in an effective manner.”
4
Positive client outcomes and satisfaction
“I have used the expertise of Peter Calabrese, Esq. for many different types of legal issues over the course of 2 years. He is respectful, fair, competent, effective, efficient, and professional. I cannot say enough positive things about him, and his firm. I would not hesitate to use his services in the future, and would recommend him to anyone.”
5
Experienced and trustworthy legal professionals
“As someone also in the legal profession I held Attorney Glickman to a remarkably high standard when I hired him to assist me in my very personal and complicated legal matter. He surpassed every one of my expectations and I would enthusiastically recommend that anyone in need of legal assistance hire him.”
Cons
1
Billing and communication issues with some lawyers
“I 100% agree with Mel. I gave my banking account number and was told they'd be a deduction on the 1st and the 15th of each month. (which I agreed) The problem is I was never told how much those withdrawals would be. My husband is a disabled veteran and only gets a check once a month. We never even appeared in court.”
2
Lack of responsiveness and professionalism from some staff
“Called for representation. Told lawyer what I thought about investigator. Glickman is friends with her so didn't want the case. Not sure about you, but I wouldn't want an attorney that prioritizes their relationship with the opposing side over a client.”
3
Disappointing outcomes and unmet client expectations
“Peter promised to help in our real estate problem, he was totally incompetent and useless. After 20 months and outrageous expenses, nothing, nothing was accomplished. His lack of commitment and pathetic efforts left us with only bills, enormous stress, and broken promises.”
4
Issues with billing transparency and accuracy
“!!!!!!DO NOT GIVE THIS MAN YOUR BANK ACCOUNT INFO!!!!!!!!!
Worst lawyer I ever had the displeasure of working with. His entire billing collection practice is uncomfortable. Example: I paid the retainer via checking account. On two occasions Peter randomly and without any notification proceeded to take money from my account (bills not officially stealing).”
5
Concerns about the firm's ethics and integrity
“Most people don't take the time to write the real & honest poor reviews. Read all the 1* reviews and believe them. Peter Calabrese is unprofessional and has poor manners, It also appears that he is dishonest as well, according to some reviews. Don't use this firm. You have much better options.”
