Mischaracterizes himself as a "full service attorney"; however nonsuch thing exists. Any "attorney"…read morewho advertises themselves as such is misleading and should be avoided. The other fallacy is that Mr. Kleiner is a person that "walks the walk" as shown on his website. He is a very experienced chameleon who will over-promise and guarantee...and fail to deliver. To date, I am still unable to receive billing that would afford me the opportunity to gain compensation as a survivor of domestic violence...and it is very improper to be placed in such a position with a person who has purposely taken an oath to service the public with decency and respect. One must wonder why that is his choice. In addition, Mr. Kleiner fails to file timely replies to adversaries and initiate filings on behalf of his clients. This has cost me significant amounts of hardships and loss of credibility and time with my family as a result given the scope of my matters that he has had the privilege of handling (despite his lack thereof). Mr. Kleiner has apparently conducted himself as I have stated previously with a multitude of others. Recently, a local forum has been discussing historic behavior and very similar experiences to my own. As one woman labeled Mr. Kleiner "The Harvey Weinstein" of Bergen County, the best approach to avoid being caught in the web of inappropriateness would be to avoid Mr. Kleiner completely and seek reputable attorneys that have a strong track record (and reviews) which demonstrate their expertise and integrity. Mr. Kleiner has only gained so many "reviews" over the last weeks via close friends given the current events and his name being mentioned in the forum I have referenced. Of the 37 years that he has been in practice, there are just as many "reviews"; with the majority being posted only recently to recover the fire that he is under within the local community. It's disappointing that any person serving the public would opt to conduct themselves so egregiously. As the phrase goes, "Old dogs can't learn new tricks". Mr. Kleiner's tricks are surfacing.

Review of the Law Office of Susana Gutierrez Manna, LLC…read more Law Office of Susana Gutierrez Manna,  LLC 277 Closter Dock Road, 2nd Floor, Suite 5 Closter, NJ 07624 T 201-750-7564 F 201-750-6919 MannaLaw@MannaLaw.net My teenage son and I came to know real estate attorney Susana Gutierrez Manna, LLC, through our wonderful realtor, Liza Rogala, and they worked together like a dream team in enabling us to sell our 2 bedroom and 2 bathroom apartment in the cooperative building known as Mediterranean North, in Fort Lee, NJ, in 2024. For those of you who are unfamiliar with selling an apartment in a cooperative apartment building complex, it a very complicated, time-consuming, bureaucratic as well as frustrating process with the need for sellers and buyers as well as their realtors and real estate attorneys and movers etc. to comply with archaic and seemingly-endless not to mention illogical rules and regulations. It can be nerve-wracking and infuriating at times for sellers and buyers and the teams of people assisting those sellers and buyers in navigating the required real estate procedures they are inherently obliged to adhere to in order to sucessfully achieve their real estate goals. We found Susana Gutierrez Manna, LLC, to be the kindest and most patient as well as polite real estate attorney we had ever encountered. She kept her calm and patience throughout our professional engagement with her from February to May 2024 to sell our apartment in preparation for our impending relocation to another US state. The same can be said about Janet who works with Susana and who replied to my many queries when Susana was not immediately available to respond. To put things into perspective, I wanted to point out that Mediterranean North has an extremely complicated and excessively bureaucratic administrative set up with its domineering and overbearing building management team, cooperative board and cooperative board attorney's office and their unnecessarily rigid and ridiculously archaic rules and regulations that must be complied with in order for any real estate transactions to commence, proceed and be concluded. At times, it felt like we were cautiously and with much trepidation trying to carefully navigate a perilous journey through a proverbial and extremely dangerous minefield. Susana never lost her cool and she as well as Janet working seamlessly with our realtor, Liza Rogala from Christies International, to assist my son and me with the eventual closing on the sale of the apartment we had purchased at Mediterranean North so that we could relocate to another state. Thank you very much, Susana and Janet! Thank you very much to Liza for finding and engaging the services of the Law Office of Susana Gutierrez Manna,  LLC for my son and me! Thank you very much to Liza, Susana and Janet for working hand-in-hand with each other to enable my son and me to finally conclude the sale of our apartment at Mediterranean North! We could not have done it without the "Dream Team" of Susana, Janet and Liza!

He was extremely rude and bullying. He disappeared for several days several times during the entire process. It's just a nightmare to deal with such a "professional" so to speak.

She put my dad and me at ease, and we felt we were in very competent hands when revamping a will as well as a few other legal documents we needed guidance with. I highly recommend Abigail and this warm and caring law practice.

I would strongly encourage anyone who is considering hiring this attorney to do their own research…read morebefore making that decision. A simple Google search of her name will bring up information about her professional history that I believe prospective clients deserve to know about before entrusting her with an important legal matter. In my opinion, her conduct demonstrates a serious lack of professional integrity, accountability, and the basic ethical values I would expect from an attorney. There is also a documented history of professional discipline, including a prior reprimand, which is a matter of public record. see below: The two complaints against Lowell contained forty-eight counts~ and alleged violations of RPC 1.2(d) (counseling or assisting a client in conduct that the lawyer knows is illegal, criminal or fraudulent); RPC 1.3 (lack of diligence); RPC 1.5(a) (excessive fees); RPC 1.10(b) (imputed disqualification of law firm); RPC 1.16(d) (failure to return an unearned retainer upon termination of representation); RPC 3.3(a)(1) (false statement of a material fact to a tribunal); RPC 3.3(a)(2) (failure to disclose a material fact to a tribunal when disclosure is necessary to avoid assisting an illegal, criminal or fraudulent act by the client); RPC 3.3(a)(4) (offering evidence the lawyer knows to be false or failure to take remedial measures after the lawyer ascertains that false evidence has been offered); RPC 3.3(a)(5) (failure to disclose a material fact to a tribunal knowing that the tribunal may be misled by such failure); RPC 3.4(c) (knowingly disobeying an obligation under the rules of a tribunal); RPC 4.1(a)(1) (false statement of material fact or law to a third person); RPC 4. l(a)(2) (failure to disclose a material fact to a third person when disclosure is necessary); RPC 7.1(a)(1) (false or misleading communication about the lawyer or the lawyer's services); RPC 8.4(a) (knowingly assisting or inducing another to violate the Rules of Thirty-eight of the counts against Lowell and Vellekamp concerned specific instances of alleged excessive fees. 2 Professional Conduct); RPC 8.4(b) (commission of a criminal act that reflects adversely on the lawyer's honesty, trustworthiness or fitness as a lawyer); RPC 8.4(c) (conduct involving dishonesty, fraud, deceit or misrepresentation) and RPC 8.4(d) (conduct prejudicial to the administration of justice). The complaint against Vellekamp contained forty counts and alleged violations of RPC 1.2(d); RPC 1.5(a); RPC 3.3(a)(2), (4) and (5); RPC 3.4(c); RPC 7.1(a)(1); and RPC 8.4(b); RPC 8.4(c) and RPC 8.4(d).

I grew up in Westchester County, NY, but no longer lived there and needed to update my parents…read moreWill. After asking several people for referrals and getting very little help, I decided to use Yelp to search a local "Will & Trust" lawyer. I read over several reviews for lawyers who were relatively close to my parents location and the only one that popped out was Anthony Nigro. With that said, I picked up the phone and called him. His receptionist was very friendly, and put my call right through to him. Anthony was very friendly and answered all of my questions concerning their Will. It was just before the Holidays and his schedule was full but after I told him my situation and that I was flying in from LA, he made time to fit us in right before Christmas. He answered all of my emails right away and confirmed our appointment the day before we met. I knew that I had made the right choice in working with him but my parents are tough, and I wasn't sure how they would feel. However, as soon as Anthony walked in the door and brought us into the conference room I could tell that they were impressed. He made the process very simple and explained the updates that would be made then asked both of my parents if it was what they wanted before he proceeded. When we left the meeting, he assured me that I could have the new documents signed and copied before I headed back to LA. Now let's not forget, this all took place just a few days before Christmas (Anthony has 2 young children)! He worked on them over the weekend and contacted me to see if we could do the signing on December 27. He also offered to come to my parents house to make it easier. At the signing my cousins who were witnesses to the new Will, also liked Anthony and asked for his business card. So, a HUGE Thank you to Anthony Nigro, Esquire! We were all very impressed with this young lawyer. Anthony went above and beyond for my family! I HIGHLY recommend him xoxo!
