This review is far from its originally intended due date but better late than never…read more.. A few months prior to the pandemic shutting us down, I was going through (what seemed like) a divorce. Given how the normed culture of society tends to lean/favor the mother, I feared I wouldn't see nor have equal rights to raising my newborn daughter. Warren Hoffman started working for me, my rights, days before I retained his firm. At that moment I felt protected and represented- he was calm, cool, knowledgeable, no bells and whistles. I felt good going into their office and finalizing our agreement. Instead of Warren Hoffman, I was assigned Andrea Scampoli. Not knowing her name or reputation, I trusted the firm and agreed to her taking point on my case. What followed in the weeks to come was hard but hopeful because of Andrea. Andrea Scampoli was / is nothing short of a heroic, sharp, intelligent, as-a-matter-of-fact, don't F with her, dangerously good attorney. I'm into superheroes and she genuinely behaved like Wonder Woman. She was stoic, understanding, supportive but not wavering. I must say, she did put the other side's attorney to shame in our first meet. The poor guy seemed flustered and searching for pocket-change comebacks but couldn't find any. Whatever the cost, I knew I invested well. I knew I invested well when Andrea fought for my rights and gave me (and was giving me) all that I wanted: My daughter and the my rights to exercise my fatherhood. She made sure I was equal (if not gaining more) in any deal or agreement or compromise. You just have to work with her, be upfront, be honest, and she'll get you what you need (if your requests are reasonable and sound). That was all of February 2020! And some of March before the pandemic hit and we went through our lockdowns. Happily and warranted, it gave me and my suppose-to-be ex-wife time to heal and understand what happened between us. While the courts went quiet, my wife and I took the time to figure things out and ended up on the better side of it. Despite working things out, Andrea still advised and guided me. Every possible process she took care of without any pain or minimized it. One year since our first court appearances, my wife and I and our daughter are happily and lovingly together. Sometimes you have to get through the dirt in order to raise your garden. Thank you Warren, for picking up my call on Saturday, January 11th, 2020. Thank you for being an exceptional and skilled lawyer. Thank you for finding/hiring Andrea. To the front desk staff, thank you for praying for me and always being sweet, kind, and precise. Andrea, thank you for being my hero, truly. You are gifted, fearless, and a force to be reckoned with. You truly embody Wonder Woman. I am grateful you represented me. I had and have my daughter because of you... To those searching: Please consider Hoffman and Behar if you ever need such kind of help... Ask for Andrea (or Warren!)

I've had the pleasure of working with Mr. Thomas Weiss for a second time. The first time Mr. Weiss…read morewas able to attend to my aunts urgent issues with her landlord. Mr. Weiss was able to review our issue the same hour I contacted him. We felt at so much ease with the services. So it was no question when it came time for me to purchase my home I had to call Mr. Weiss. Once again the services were exceptional. Mr. Weiss was available whenever I needed him and he thoroughly took his time and explained all documents. I can't say enough positive things about Mr. Weiss's services. Happy client. Thank you from me and my family Karena Powell

UPDATE TO PREVIOUS REVIEW!!! Filed professional misconduct…read morecomplaint with the New York Bar Association regarding fee dispute. Retained Thomas Weiss in a nasty divorce in 2014. When I relieved Mr. Weiss of his duties because the cost of the contested divorce exceeded my ability to pay and take care of my children with no child support, Mr. Weiss continued to bill (without my knowledge) for court costs associated with withdrawing from the case to the tune of 5k....Three years later!!!!. Nov. 2017, I get a demand to pay from him and I am still not divorced! Feeling victimized by my husband and attorney. Mr. Weiss offered to settle for 2k if I remove negative reviews warning others about his services. I refused. The public has a right to know and I will not be strong-armed (or bought) by someone I retained initially to protect my interest. Horrible personal experience made worse by this attorney. Regret I ever retained....total waste of money.

would never recommend this lawyer. I really don't understand how others do when all she does is…read moreovercharge her clients. She rarely returns calls and has unreasonable fees. For example, a simple two-second phone call reminding you of a court date--something you didn't even request--costs $50. An email is $150, and sending an email on your behalf is $250. Her hourly rate is $600, and she charges $600 for travel and $60 to $100 for parking. To review her own file before going to court costs $400. The basic things for any lawyer to do is meet with their client before any hearing she does not even though she did not see or hear from the person for over 6 months. How can you speak for that person? And turn around charge the person $4500 for that 30 minutes court hearing? If that is not scam I really do not know what is . For her to show up for a hearing, it could cost you between $3,000 and $4,000. She seems indifferent to her clients, focusing only on dragging out cases. Whenever the opposing side makes requests, she does not advocate for her clients; she allows things to drag on unnecessarily. A friend of mine hired her, and she completely ruined them. They had to file for bankruptcy, and the other side won everything. She lied to them throughout the hearing and essentially sold them out to the opposing side. If you are currently represented by her, I urge you to leave; it will not get better, and you may face serious consequences. Her retainer fee is $5,000, which quickly disappears in charges. It's a shame to see how divorce court allows people like her to exploit vulnerable individuals. She was even late for court once, and when the person called to check on her arrival, they were charged $160 for that brief phone call. A case that should take three months to a year took over four years. For a trial, she charges over $12000 for just that one day. Ultimately, the individual lost everything and is now homeless. I will go on every platform and expose this person. She should not allowed to scam and misleading people like that.

Mr. Soffer represented me in my divorce and I think he did a very good job. After speaking to…read moreseveral other attorneys, his price was reasonable (comparatively), he was communicative and helpful and knew the law. He was a tough negotiator, which is what I wanted. Like any lawyer, (I would assume) he pushed to get the most for me, and I eventually had to put the brakes on and say, "this is good enough" or he would have kept fighting. But even in an amicable divorce you want someone who's smart and aggressive and even a bit intimidating to be on your side. I'd definitely recommend Mr. Soffer if you're in need of a divorce lawyer.
