My husband and I retained Mitchell Katine to handle a dispute with our HOA. We consulted (on a pay as you go arrangement) with him a couple of times prior to retaining him for legal advice on the matter, since we were initially hopeful that we could settle the matter without having to retain an attorney. He was very helpful and we did not feel pressured to retain him - he just patiently answered all our many questions. Once we determined we needed an attorney, we retained him without hesitation. He was very responsive to us throughout, he handled all matters in a very timely fashion and his billing was very reasonable. He also refunded the unused portion of our retainer promptly. However, the most important part is that we prevailed and the HOA dismissed the lawsuit!!! I highly recommend Mitchell Katine - you will not be disappointed in his services. He will be honest and direct with you, which is what you need when you are dealing with a lawsuit. You need to know exactly where you stand and what your legal options are. He is highly knowledgeable and highly skilled.

Mr. Katine saved us thousands of dollars in HOA fees that we ultimately did not owe. I highly recommend him without reservation. He was very responsive and promptly answered phone calls and emails.

I was referred to Mitchell Katine by my doctor to discuss filing a long term disability claim with my employer's group insurance. I had been talking with my doctor for years about seeking disability and was very nervous about moving forward with a claim. I finally met with Mitchell for an initial consultation and to discuss the LTD process. I brought some of my medical papers, along with company plan documents for his review and recommendation. We discussed what the possibilities were and he put me at ease right away. I had lots of questions and he was very patient with me. I appreciated this, since I have some cognitive disabilities, which can be very frustrating to others. I listened and felt very comfortable with hiring Mitchell to help with the initial filing of the claim. He told me what he thought was missing and gave me sound advice on what I should include before filing the claim. I did exactly what he said and he helped guide me through the process and before I knew it the claim was approved. I totally trust Mitchell for any future legal advice and will be using him for estate planning and any additional LTD issues. He is extremely knowledgeable and was accessible by phone or email whenever I needed to ask a quick question. I highly recommend him to others in need of legal counsel for LTD claims or any other legal work.

Mitch was superb, explained clearly and honestly, was excellent in dealing assertively with the other side, and got great results. I couldn't have chosen better!

After being terminated from my employer abruptly and unexpectedly for false accusations, I was lost and confused. I had never been fired before, nor had I ever been accused of the things they accused me of. They were quick to try to get me to sign a severance agreement that waived all of my rights. I did a quick search for an attorney and came across Mitchell Katine. I sent in a contact us form on his website and he immediately contacted me. The initial phone conversation was genuine and not rushed, and ultimately he asked me to bring all of my documentation into the office so that I would be able to show him what was going on. Though I was dealing with lack of income during the holiday season from being out of work, I knew I needed guidance and needed to spend the money. Best $250 I had ever spent on a consult. When meeting with Mitchell, he took his time to get to know me and the issues that came up. He reviewed the severance agreement they gave me and provided his opinion on how to proceed but ultimately let me make the final decision with the facts of how to approach this situation I was in. After we came up with a game plan of how to handle the severance agreement, Mitchell offered to handle communicating the change requests to the severance agreement with my former employer's HR team. When they did not answer and sent an email to me about contacting their attorney, Mitchell stepped in and took the lead on handling it all for me. He did not stop helping even through the unemployment filing process. Every time I had a question or a thought or just needed some guidance, Mitchell was available by phone or email and was very quick to respond. Mitchell truly cares about his clients and his community and it shows. He not only went above and beyond what I originally paid for to help me out, but he also took the time out of his busy schedule to learn about me. He helped me understand what was happening and helped me plan how to get back on my feet with health insurance and unemployment. He's not just an attorney, he's an amazing person who wants to help those who need it. I would highly recommend anyone who finds themselves in a situation where they feel burdened or overwhelmed to reach out to him. You'll find his personality infectious and his desire to help will give you reassurance that despite the negative you're going through, there is still positive people in the world. He will definitely be the person I will always turn to and have in my corner when I need him. THANK YOU SO MUCH MITCHELL!

Mitchell prepared estate planning documents for myself and my partner (now deceased). Whenever I had occasion to use one of the documents he prepared -- at the hospital, hospice, funeral home, bank -- the first reaction was invariably something like, "Oh, thank God you have this!" Losing a loved one is already painful enough. Had it happened without estate planning documents, it would have been a nightmare. The fee for the document preparation was very reasonable, and Mitchell himself is not only obviously competent as a lawyer but also very welcoming and pleasant. I definitely recommend him.

My husband and I were referred to Attorney Mitchell Katine to guide us through our disability claim and it has been a very positive experience. Mr. Katine is extremely knowledgeable and provides sound advice at each step of the process. He makes a point of being accessible and provides timely responses to our emails and phone calls. As an advocate in dealing with our insurance company, Mr. Katine ensured we understood the process so that we did not make any errors. We would recommend him to others in need of legal counsel for LTD claims or any other legal work that is required.

Mitchell and his staff developed wills and associated estate planning documents for my wife and me at a very reasonable price. The process was very smooth and all our questions were answered promptly. Mitchell and his associates were all very professional. I will definitely recommend Mitchell to friends and family.

In the brief time we had for our consultation Mr. Katine looked over my paperwork and listened to what was going on. His advisement and continued help after our consultation is what help us the most. I can not say enough on how well he did.

I had a very positive 1 hour consultaion with Mitchell, he answered all of my questions and got our civic club off to the right step. I strongly recommend his.

Two words come to mind when reflecting on Attorney Mitchell Katine and his help with my legal matter, Super Lawyer! My HOA would not correct several deficiencies that affected my home, the roof leaked continually and the siding on the home was deteriorating and had fallen into disrepair. Despite many conversations, emails, and letters with HOA board members, the management company, and the HOA attorney the issues persisted. Attorney Katine contacted the necessary parties on my behalf and counseled me on the most prudent course of action. After Attorney Katine’s intervention, the necessary repairs were made, and the issue was resolved favorably and economically. Attorney Katine’s services were invaluable in bringing about a common-sense solution. I recommend Attorney Katine’s services for anyone seeking assistance in resolving HOA matters.
