Going through a divorce is never easy, but from my first meeting with David Wolkowitz, I knew I was…read morein good hands. David and his team made the process as smooth and stress-free as it could possibly be. He answered all of my questions, walked me through the entire process clearly, and made sure I understood what to expect every step of the way. David remained available throughout the process, and I worked closely with Sam, his paralegal, who was outstanding. Clear, concise, and always timely -- every interaction with Sam was exactly what you need during a stressful time. David's expertise and Sam's exceptional support make The Wolkowitz Law Office one I would not hesitate to recommend to anyone navigating a divorce.

Our 15 year old knew to stay away almost from the very start and asked why if I get multiple opinions with doctors why did I not do this with a lawyer. Money was Mike's main concern ie making it for himself. If he doesn't even give professional courtesy and consideration for a member of the bar and takes advantage of their emotional state in terms of a guardianship, I can just imagine what he's like to other clients. Kept repeating "we are all lawyers" and how everyone wasn't a "flamethrower" while laughing his way to the bank. The bill went up in one week @$7,000 ie $1,000 a day and nothing that was done was in the "best interests" of the "alleged disabled". What nerve! All I can say is karma is b-tch Mike! Should have never been advised to file especially in "Crook County". This was my second mistake. First was calling Mike!!! Stay away!!! "All the best" to you and your's Mike....

We met with Johannah Hebl. During the course of a delightful conversation, my wife spoke of the sort of the changes she wanted to make. When we received a draft from Johannah, we were both impressed by how perfectly she had captured what my wife wanted. There was no need for any back-and-forth regarding subsequent modifications. This is the sort of experience you want from any professional but sometimes seems all too rare.

Lynn Wypych was appointed as my child's GAL, so I had no say in the matter. She was just awful!…read more My child hated her, she screamed at me on several occasions for things completely out of my control, she was consistently rude to my child's therapist, and she neither fought for nor protected my child. My ex refused to agree to anything I wanted for our child and I had to spend thousands of dollars on court orders for things like physical therapy, orthodontia, and surgery to remove a small tumor. She still wouldn't back even temporary medical decision-making for me, choosing instead to make us wait until the custody evaluator's report came out. Then I had to pay for the court orders on top of all of the medical bills, because my ex wouldn't chip in and Lynn didn't think that was important. She called my child a liar, to their face. Then, after doing nothing to help my child and only making the situation worse, she got the judge to order that her fees couldn't be discharged in bankruptcy and came after me HARD for the money I still owed her. I spent six figures in court and will now never retire. My child needed therapy once our case was closed, just to deal with the trauma of having had to work with Lynn Wypych. Don't waste your money -- run to different attorney, and fast!

Warning...do not retain Caidi Vanderporten or her father, Evan Mammas. During your consultation…read morethey will present as kind, caring, and ready to fight hard at trial. However, they will do everything to avoid trial. I paid Caidi bout $200 for her free consultation as token of my gratitude, appreciation, and respect for her time. However, after retaining her and her father, and paying them thousands to argue at trial, Caidi did the unimaginable within ~3 weeks. FIRSTLY, against my repeated objection, Caidi converted the trial from in-person to Zoom. SECONDLY, at the beginning of the hearing, she requested a PRIVATE breakout room for her to talk with the judge, opposing counsel, and child representative (all women). The trial NEVER occurred because she lied to the judge that I wanted to cancel the hearing in exchange for an agreement to see my infant son (and only child) TWICE PER MONTH for 45 minutes each "visit." I brought the matter to her father's attention, and he explained that he saw nothing wrong. I even had the transcripts of our conversation for evidence. THIRDLY, she filed an Order of Protection against me in an attempt to prevent me from publicly exposing her. LASTLY, she had the nerve to bill me an additional ~$5,000 after I complained about what she had done to me and my infant son. I hired them to argue, at the IN-PERSON EVIDENTIARY TRIAL, for me and my son's entitled rights to a sufficient amount of WEEKLY parenting time. They took advantage of me while I was a desperate father and full-time graduate student that could not even make ends meet. I've had to use $7000 of my student loans to hire a new attorney to undo the mess they created. I'm heartbroken and hope no one else becomes a victim of her firm.

Unfortunately last year, the CEO of the company I was working for decided that it would be a fantastic idea to bring his enormous dog "Tank" into the office. I'm not against dogs in the workplace but the dog should be well behave... at least a little. while I was grabbing my lunch from the fridge Tank decided that my lunch was his and snatched my lunch from my hand. I did not know that retrieval of my lunch was going to set him off and boom he bit me on the face. He ripped my lip and cheek. Long story short the company legal said I should have contacted the CEO to get my lunch back and it was my fault because I provoked Tank. They decided that they weren't going to cover the reconstruction surgery that was required to make my face back in working order. I was referred to Mike Orzoff from a friend who said the guy was legit. Not only did Mike Orzoff get me the money for the surgery but also got a bit extra to make sure I could pay my bills while in recovery. I am truly grateful to Mike for getting me through the entire process. If you need legal assistance I suggest going through Orzoff Law.

Being injured at work is a horrible experience. Hope no one else has to go thru it. Happened to me…read moreand it the most scary experience of my life. My injuries required surgery and extensive rehab. I received a referral for the founder (father) of this firm but my case went to one of the sons. The father (Stewart) has good recommendations here. The son, not so much. I truly regret not doing better research. My case was not represented as aggressively as it should have been. The insurance company dictated everything, including cutting off my physical therapy early. My lawyer told me in advance not to worry if this happened because he could fight it. When it happened, he did NOTHING to fight for me. My physical therapist did more to fight for me to get the doctor-prescribed therapy for me than my lawyer did. Two separate lawyers reviewed (without knowing settlement) and confirmed it should have been higher. I felt like my lawyer was more interested in settling than aggressively fighting for me. If you're injured, learn from me and do your research before hiring a lawyer.

After I called several on the list who did not impress me, I spoke to Mr Teichner and knew I had found my man. He listened to what I wanted to do and explained to me how I could accomplish it. I met with him at his office and he explained the steps. We kept in contact by email and phone. I talked to him, not an assistant and did not have to leave unanswered emails. I am not used to dealing with lawyers. I have only used one when I purchased my home and wrote the original will. I loved the "personal" touch, the explanations of how the legalities of wills work. We handled everything and I only had to come back to the office 1 more time to sign the will.
