Ponzi scheme! These lawyers will seduce you into signing retainer, make you pay and then you will never hear from them again. They take any frivolous lawsuit knowing they will lose and they don’t put client money in a trust , they spend your money as if it is their own personal piggy bank, like frauds and con-artists ! They are loser who never win cases !

I was a student at one of the most prestigious educational institutions in the US, and undoubtedly, the world. I had been away on a medical leave of absence for a year after my first year and the school was giving me a difficult time getting back in. I contacted several lawyers, consulted with quite a few, all to have each and every one of them say there was nothing that could be done to get this institution to allow me to continue at that point in time. I had to do what the school asked. In the mix of lawyers contacted was Mr. Ricotta's firm. One morning, soon after I had left that message on their answering machine (I had left the message on a holiday), Mr. Ricotta called me back. Both Mr. Ricotta and Mr. Marks treated me with respect, and as a human being, not just as a client. They talked me through the whole process, gave me good advice and got the job done! It was smooth sailing for me, and I am sure that this was all because they worked hard for me. To go head-to-head with this school is no mean task. They have some of the best lawyers money can buy, but this firm came through and worked without the least hint of apprehension when all others turned me down. Today, almost a year from when this all happened, I can proudly say I am a graduate of this prestigious institution, all thanks to Mr. Ricotta and Mr. Marks!

Tom, thank you for all you have accomplished for me. There are not enough hours in a day to tell the world of what a great lawyer you really are. Each and every time I needed you to answer a question you got back to me and were quick with a response and I do thank you! You don’t have that very often with many lawyers! If you are looking for someone to represent you and who believes you are a winner! He is your guy. Great attorney!

Thomas Ricotta is efficient, compassionate, and respectful attorney. He had helped to win a good settlement award for my case with NYC DOE. He explains the legal process and gets right into it. It took three years due to the DOE lags. I would highly recommend him if you have an employment discrimination, disparate treatment, sexual harassment, suspension, etc. It is worth the 40% they charge upon winning the settlement.

Matthew Marks helped me with a situation regarding my daughter, and I would definitely recommend him to anyone. Two other law firms were not interested. He wanted to help despite there not being a lawsuit. He was so kind and generous with his time, without charging me. He said that my emails and calls added up to about the 30 minute consultation time. (It was probably a little bit over that.) He has a very pleasant way about him, and it was so helpful to have his advice. I am left being impressed by him.

As an attorney with more than 25 years of experience, I have twice needed expert legal advice about employment issues—an area of the law in which I do not practice. I consulted Ricotta & Marks, a firm I knew would be able to deliver the best results. They did not disappoint. The first time I reached out to the firm, it was on behalf of my sister. Ricotta & Marks’ interaction with the other side brought immediate, favorable results. Needless to say, I went straight back to them when I recently experienced my own employment issue. Matthew Marks and Tom Ricotta listen to the details that matter to your case and then provide expert legal advice with compassion. They are both thorough and articulate, relay their message on an understandable level and their writing skills are outstanding. The partners treat their clients with respect, take your matter seriously and meet with you quickly in order to reach the best outcome as soon as possible. I highly recommend them to anyone who is in need of experts in the field of Employment Law.

Matt is an extremely talented attorney who fought hard for me....he was always very honest and took my case when others wouldn't....i recommend for everybody

This firm cares and knows how to properly assess the merits of your case. I know because I'm an attorney. I had retainer agreement offers from 4 other firms and Ricotta was my 1st choice based on their belief in my case and fair terms. Good people work here.
