In 2011, Barket represented me in a criminal case. After being in correspondence with the FBI, Barket advised me to come back from Singapore to meet with the FBI. He GAVE the FBI and Homeland Security my flight details. Needless to say, I was met at the airport by 30-40 armed federal agents with no Barket in sight. At the bail hearing, Barket was incredibly bad not only not advocating for my release, but actually arguing the Governments case. Needless to say, I was never given bail althoug Barket told me he has had mafia captains with prior records given bail. His fees were astronomical and he extorted my fiance into signing a retainer agreement without my knowledge. He once came into prison complaining about his former partner, Rick Quadrino, and how he needed to make his "nut" of at least $1mm to cover rebuilding his house, getting his kids through private school and of course his country club. He left Quadrino exactly at the time of my trial for my life and was always distant. He rarely visted me in prison. At time of my trial, he brought in Kevin Kearon to prepare me for testimony. Kearon had stolen money from a different case years earlier, and I had met him in the courthouse one day and screamed at him what a scumbag he was. So, Barket brings him in to see me, and Kearon tells me he is not there for me, but at Barket's request. Then he drops a bomb and states that the day I yelled at him, he filed a complaint. Barket wouldn't advocate for me when I needed health care for a ruptured achilles and cancerous growth on my finger, and actually requested to the AUSA and jail that they put me in isolation for suicide watch. He extorted me into agreeing to a plea in which the Government was free to argue for higher prison time anyway. I would have been sentenced to federal guidelines even if I had went to trail. So, he outright lied. At a private prison, GEO in Queens, I did time with a young man who was there for 2.5 years without being sentenced!!! Barket wouldn't even visit him. My advice from firsthand knowledge. Stay as far away from Barket, and stay further away from Kearon unless you like being broke and going to prison for a long time.

I am 42 years of age and have been using attorneys for various legal matters for over 20 years. I have not been this satisfied with the services of an attorney in a long time. Scott is extremely knowledgable and good at what he does. He is always able to be reached (very rare with attorneys). He always has an immediate answer for any question I have. He is easy to talk to and always has a great strategy plan for me up his sleeve. I'm telling you this is the attorney to call. If you call someone else then "good luck".

My divorce proceedings and child support battles were a complete failure with my prior attorney. It was almost as in my old lawyer was playing for the other team. That was until I retained Scott. He reviewed my case and got me the most relief (which if your a divorced man in the state on NY, you know is an uphill, if not impossible battle). I am so confident in Scott's abilities that, he will be my "hired gun", with any of my personal or corporate legal matters now and in the future.

I cannot say enough about my experience with Scott. As most people going through a divorce know, the choice of an attorney is most important and essential. Scott and his staff have more than fulfilled this, with his attention to detail, thorough understanding of matrimonial law, and his ability to move the process along while always being available to attend to your needs. In short, he makes this sometimes unbearable process, bearable. Anyone who is looking for an attorney who will work for you tirelessly, honestly, and can think on his feet should consult and hire Scott Gross.

Scott was consistently organized, knowledgeable and assertive in presenting my case. He always promptly returned my calls and was able to answer my questions and calm my fears. He's an extremely friendly and amiable person and yet represented me in court with vigor, tenacity and good judgment.

Scott Gross recently helped me on a criminal matter. The DA wanted me to go to jail. But Scott fought every step of the way and I got a very favorable disposition. He was caring and helpful. He picks up his phone every time I called. I couldn't be happier with his services.
