I met with 3 different lawyers before hiring Steven Grocott to represent me in my divorce. I went…read morewith Steven because he was the only lawyer that made me feel like he was actually going to fight for me. He was the only lawyer that did not bring up money and how much he charged per hour in the first 5 minutes of meeting him! Steven Grocott listened to what I wanted, answered every question (and reassured me that my questions were not dumb) and most importantly, told me everything was going to be ok! He took my phone calls, even on a weekend and answered all my texts! If he was busy, his wonderful assistant Sue would do everything in her power to help you and/or get the answer you needed! Going through a divorce is HELL but if you want to make it less painful, hire a great lawyer...and that would be Steven Grocott!!!

Especially beware of Henry Nowak Supreme Court Justice Erie County he is especially against Fathers. As a matter of fact I think he hates men altogether. After spending tens of thousands of dollars for Steve to get me a Parenting Agreement. A Parenting Agreement That was supposed to hold up in all states. He even personally told me on the phone if I ever had a problem seeing my child to call him and he would take care of it. Well I'll tell you what he took care of, he let my court case get pushed off to another state. Every single thing that was litigated for 4 years was called Nel and void through Oregon State Court. They completely destroyed my entire Parenting Agreement and I have not seen my child in over 4 years now. He also convinced me I needed to sell my house. I had a house worth $80,000 that was in my family for over 55 years. I lost everything. Everything! Nobody in my family is allowed to see my child at all. Her grandparents nobody. Her grandfather just recently passed away and she was completely denied access to his funeral which was going to be paid for by me. And you know the real sad thing is is that when the court case got pushed off to Oregon I could have appealed it in New York state. But you know what Steven grocott said about this. He said oh I didn't think about that. Well that's what you get paid to to think about shit like that!

I counted 5 times, in our brief conversation, that she paused to pick up her cell phone and text someone. Doesn't matter who, it's unprofessional. In no other profession would that be acceptable. I was about to spend all of my life savings for someone that clearly wasn't fully listening to me, as she gave the same generic statement every time she put her phone back to. I was not thrilled! In some professions, that could cost you your job!

Ok - how many folks review lawyers? Well - I know of one and that's ME!…read more After talking to a few local lawyer (Dunkirk - Fredonia area) we were told by one to contact Chuck Beinhauer because he was the best for what we needed. In an attempt to save our parents home from being taken by the state due to health issues - we were lucky enough to have the money to hire Chuck and save our parents estate from the clutches of the State! This lawyer doesn't just know what he is doing - he teaches it! I believe he might be the best in WNY, but the 4 star rating is because with this expertise comes a very high price. However, everything but filing costs are part of the package and when you are talking about saving an estate - the money is being well spent. The staff at this location is excellent and you are treated with dignity and respect while making you feel like part of the family.

I had a SIMPLE case...and he insulted the judge, saying that he didn't think she was right. ..and here's the thing. Whether you think that the judge is wrong, or the attorney thinks that the judge is wrong, is fine. You keep that information to yourself. But he pretty much told her, "Well, I think you're wrong." And I lost my case. He's got a big mouth, he can't control himself under pressure, and I'd stay away from them. I feel like I lost my case because of him and his big, fat mouth.

Chris Mikienis kept swearing at me (f-word) and walking away yelling at me that I wasn't listening. I was just asking for clarification when he suddenly walked out saying, "I've got more important things to do than listen to you." When I fought back by saying, "You were swearing at me already in there." (meaning the large room I'd waited in), he told me, "Get the hell out of my office." He then took several steps toward me and finished the encounter by screaming at me, "Get out and go back to your miserable fucking life." He should be immediately disbarred. S. Naylor
