Ms. Bermudez was always on top of my case, ensuring nothing fell through the cracks and following up and ensuring the case was moving. Also as someone who is hard of hearing, I appreciated how she prioritized accommodations to make sure I could fully participate in the process. Her dedication, clear communication, and genuine care made an overwhelming process so much more manageable. If you need a lawyer who truly goes above and beyond, Ms. Bermudez is the one to call!

I went into this divorce process scared and hoping someone would just tell me everything would be…read moreeasy and work out perfectly. That's not what Debbie did, and honestly, I'm glad she didn't. She told me the hard truths right from the start. There was no sugarcoating, no false promises. She's a total straight shooter, and in a situation like this, that's exactly what I needed. It wasn't always what I wanted to hear, but it helped me make real decisions instead of living in denial. She takes the initiative without me having to chase her down or beg for updates. She's always two steps ahead, thinking about what needs to happen next. Super involved, very personal, like she actually cares about how this affects me and my life, not just another file on her desk. She got me remote court appearances when I really needed that flexibility, which made a huge difference with my schedule and stress level. And the communication? Unreal. Emails at all hours; early morning, late night, weekends. She was always prompt with her responses and never left me hanging wondering what was going on. If you want someone who will fight for you, keep it real, and actually be there when you need them, she's the one. Highly recommend.

Right after I hired her, she begged me to write a good review about her because she said that her…read moreother clients wrote bad reviews about her and she was worried that she would lose her business. So I did her favor for writing a good review about her. However, later I learned that she is a full of scams. She refused to provide evidences that could end the case right there to the judge to prolong the case in order for her to gain more money. She took $30,000 within 10 months from me and didn't resolve anything. I just fired her. She claimed herself as " Children come first" however, she kept ignoring my concerns about my children"s safety and laughing. Even when I have a audio recording of my children"s father abusing my child physically and crying and calling mommy for help.... She does not care about the children at all. She only care about how she can fool people to gain more money. She is abusive, toxic, disrespectful, manipulative and twist everything. She constantly gossip about her other clients disrespectfully. I would never recommend her to anyone. I'm palling to take this to the court.

I wasn't sure exactly how mediation actually worked when I first contacted Gene Barr, but he fully explained everything and after only 6 weeks, 4 mediation sessions and about $4,000 dollars, Gene was able to accomplish what my attorney and my ex's attorney couldn't accomplish after years of litigation and tens of thousands of dollars. Gene is a very knowledgeable, very professional and very genuine guy. A true gentleman in a field full of vultures. Gene was an absolute pleasure to work with and returned calls and emails in a timely manner. He truly made a difficult situation palatable. It would be impossible for me to recommend him highly enough in this review, but if you are in need of mediation services, look no further. I was truly impressed with Gene.

From the beginning, she was professional, knowledgeable, responsive, and truly committed to helping me achieve the best possible outcome.

The eviction process is never fun for a landlord, especially in a state that is more friendly to tenants. But I was happy with the result, that I got the eviction warrant in about 6.5 months, even though it was during the holiday season, I was very grateful to get a trial a few days prior to Christmas, and the trial went very well. I got my rental home back about 2 months later, after waiting for the sheriff to put it on schedule, because Long Island has many homes on its list waiting. Glad that everything turned out well, and I made the right choice choosing David.

I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS IRASCIBLE MAN and here is why…read more On November 16, 2023 Mr. David L. Witkon, Esq was appointed Guardian Ad Litem to represent the interests of my adult handicapped son in eviction proceedings. Through no fault of my own (my ex ATTORNEY husband stopped paying the mortgage without my knowledge - resulting in foreclosure, auction and subsequent eviction proceedings from our home). Mr. Witkon first contacted me on Friday, December 15, 2023 at 4:30pm. We were scheduled for court the following Monday, December 18, 2023 at 9:30am. So to say he waiting until the last possible moment to call and obtain information is a complete understatement. He was appointed 30 days before making initial contact, and until the last minute! When Mr. Witkon called I explained to him that both Luke and I were home with a terrible flu like illness for the past three days and I was in no shape to accurately speak to him (medicine head), but because it was so late in the game due his lack of consideration and calling at the 11th hour, I acquiesced and attempted to answer his questions. Mr. Witkon was dismissive and disrespectful in that conversation, speaking speaking over me. When asked if he needed to actually meet Luke he said, "based on your description of your son, I see no need to met with him." On Sunday evening, December 17, 2023 Luke and I took a rapid Covid test at home which was positive. I went to court (wearing a mask) to notify the court of the situation. As a Physician Assistant practicing medicine for more than 30 years I am more than aware of the Covid safety guidelines. When Mr. Wiitkon, (25 minutes late), arrived he was informed of the positive results. He IMMEDIATELY started shouting at me to get out of the building. Mr. Witkon called me and asked me if I could produce a photo of a positive test strip proving Covid. I explained it was a home test, and my garbage is collected on Monday mornings, so I could not produce it, but, I stated I would happily get a doctors note as we were seeing a physician 3 days later. Mr. Witkon was incredibly rude, shouting and speaking over me to the point that I had to say several times, "If you continue to speak over me you will not be able to hear my answers - remember God gave you two ears and only one mouth, so you should listen twice as much." I can't even begin to describe the horrible, condescending manner in which he spoke to me, a 9/11 First Responder, handicapped child, a woman he had never met and knew nothing about........ Mr. Witkon actually said, "Your lucky I was able to get this case adjourned." Sir, Covid got this case adjourned, you Sir showed up 25 minutes late, proceeded to lie to the court by saying you told me to bring my son, when you clearly stated on the phone there was no reason for you to meet with him. Mr. Witkon actually had the audacity to say that he did the best he could for Luke. Again Sir, if your best is contacting your client at the 11th hour and browbeating them after they clearly tell you they are sick in bed with your overbearing, rude, over talking, condescending manner, than I am truly sorry for the rest of your "clients". I realize that Mr. Witkon was court appointed, and therefore this case was pro bono for him, but did he have to be so incredibly rude? In a text message with Mr. Witkon I informed him that I would NOT be able to work with him and I further informed him that I would accurately reflect our interactions in a thorough review. On December 20, 2023 Mr. Witkon filed paperwork with the court requesting to be removed as Guardian Ad Litem, stating that I threatened him. Well, Sir, if stating that I would write an accurate review clearly reflecting all of our communication is a threat, than I suggest you conduct yourself in a more professional manner with respect and kindness. I look forward to sharing our text conversation with the court at our next scheduled date, as I firmly believe Mr. Witkon should at the very least, receive some type of sanctions for his treatment of both me and my son, Luke.
