Arrogance and swagger sums up this attorney. Divorce became more complicated due to his grandiose approach. He prepared me for trial knowing that the trial would either never happen or pushed off to infinity.

I retained Sy Reisman after being highly recommended and he and his team lived up to their reputation! In a divorce or marital settlement, you can never be 100% satisfied but I got most of what I was looking for in a case that went to trial and lasted about 3 years!

when i retained him for my divorce he gave me a pep talk that we held the upper hand. as the negotiations proceeded his arrogance and swagger continued. the other attorney outmaneuvered him at every point. at one point i made a suggestion as to strategy and he said the judge would see right through it and hold it against us. after 3 more months of setbacks he suggested the strategy that i had suggested and when i said i suggested that, he denied ever hearing it. i fired him hours later. his negligence cost me almost $25K in fees and put me in a position that the new attorney told me was untenable. my ex got almost 70% of our assets including 50% of the value of my medical practice which i started way before i even knew her. the new attorney was shocked how he bungled my case.
