Reviews

Dan Rathbun and Dave Bateman represented me in a partition matter. Dan and Dave were experts in setting my expectations and providing insights on the most likely outcomes. My questions were responded to quickly and thoroughly using language and examples I could understand. While legal representation has its price, I walked away from each conversation/email knowing the path forward and feeling that I was getting the best representation and return on my investment. As a result of their strategic thinking and expertise, the court made a determination that was extremely favorable. I very strongly recommend Rathbun Bateman -- I would trust them again to represent my interests. Having observed Dave Bateman in deposition and trial settings, there is nobody I would rather work with. He is professional, quick on his feet, and used all available resources to secure my win.

Dave Bateman represented us most admirably in a difficult property ownership litigation, with the result a very favorable settlement for our side. Throughout the process, Dave was accessible, patient, and understanding, helping to put us at ease during an uncertain time. I highly recommend Rathbun Bateman.

Thank you Mr.Belkowitz.I appreciate your time and effort. Mrs.Cate also.😁

We could not have asked for a better representation than David Bateman. He made things happen and quickly helped us settle a very sticky situation.

Prompt and courteous service. My title insurance company had retained Rathbun Bateman to file a lawsuit to correct my deed. This isn't as adverse as it sounds; the relief we sought was merely for the seller to sign and notarize a deed correction of mistakes made by the real estate attorney who drafted the original deed. We only resorted to filing a lawsuit after the title claim representive had reached out to the seller multiple times, but she didn't respond. The lawsuit enabled us to, based on the evidence, to get my deed corrected whether she cooperated or not. It wasn't adversarial to the seller; we just wanted the right thing to be done, so it wouldn't complicate future sales of the property. Mr. Bateman was courteous and sympathetic to both parties and was able to calmly and gently explain to the seller that there was no need for her to panic, as all we wanted was for her fix something that wasn't her fault, but only her notarized signature could fix. She complied with the request and Mr. Batemen expeditiously moved the court for a final order and dismissal for the convenience of all parties. Now that my deed has been corrected, it no longer presents a possible barrier to future title settlements, insurance claims, or matters where the property could serve as collateral.

Great experience with the firm, they were knowledgeable and supportive

Adrianna was fantastic! She and the firm were absolutely critical is helping us change the dynamic in negotiating an IEP for my daughter with the school district. Will definitely return for any future legal needs as they relate to special education needs, she is a fierce advocate and I always felt like the most important client in our interactions with them. Highly recommended!

My organization works with this Law Firm on several business transactions. This firm is professional, tactful, and effective. They represent their client in the best light and advise the clients appropriately in every situation. They are a results driven entity and I would absolutely recommend them to any organization looking for and outstanding law firm and Superior service.

Our family received white glove customer service from Richard and his team. Richard had prepared my parent's original Will and set up the trust in 2007 and they had a great experience. When my father passed last year, I contacted them again to change things to my mom's name only. The process was so easy and they were so helpful in every step of the way. The whole team made things so easy for my elderly mom to review and sign the documents without any hassle. I highly recommend Richard and his team as they will take care of you and you can be secure that their knowledge and guidance will ensure your family's wishes are clearly & legally conveyed.

David and Dan did an incredible job for us. They are top notch litigators. They took a difficult legal family situation we were facing and did the heavy lift for us. Dave is meticulous, objective and highly intelligent. Dan is amazing. They are also highly ethical and good moral people. I can tell you without any doubt, this firm is the one you want in your corner. They are a significant force in the courtroom and a powerhouse at all times. - Phil Martin

Very professional and clear approach.

I can't recommend these wonderful people enough. I came to them in shock and grief. They were so kind and understanding and helped me navigate a very difficult time. When my case completely changed direction it left me worried and scared that we may be looking at a long, drawn-out probate dispute. Without blinking, they came up with a solution. I was very shocked that we were able to settle this with a solution I truly believe my Dad would be proud of. Dan listened to me and my needs, and suggested strategies in my best interest. When Dave stepped in, he was understanding and kind. He was able to get a solution with quick thinking and a good understanding of the law. Let's not forget Joan- always helpful and kind. I appreciate all your firm has done for me. I truly believe that this is the best for all parties. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart!
