    I've worked with them twice on my various physician employment contracts. I reached out initially 2…read moreyears ago and received a response right away. Alex gave me a call just a few hours later that evening, the office sent me an engagement letter the next day, I was going over my contract with Laura later that same week. Of course I reviewed the contracts myself, however I don't know what I don't know. On our phone appointment, Laura walked me through every paragraph to make sure I understood it all correctly and made sure to add in what I needed before sending a drafted revision. By the end, I was comfortable with what we drafted and I signed the contracts. I recently worked with her again, and the process was seamless. I had a very last minute opportunity and needed the contract reviewed quickly. I actually forgot to send her a copy of the contract ahead of time and sent it in minutes before our phone appointment. She was able to look it over anyway and we continued with our phone appointment as scheduled! We had our phone appointment on a Friday and she had the drafted revision back to me on Monday. I did not expect the turnaround to be so quick, but I am grateful that it was. The initial fee was $1200 I believe (I had 1 contract and a second smaller contract). It would've been a bit less if only had the one contract to go over. The second time I was given a discount as a returning client, around $800. Worth every penny in my opinion. All of my communication with Granovsky & Sundaresh has been pleasant and efficient. I'd absolutely recommend working with Laura. She's personable, friendly, and quick to respond.

    Excellent, practical legal advice about employment and disability that saved a family member's job.read more

    ** Tully Rinckey's response to my reviews is disingenuous. We already addressed this matter…read moredirectly with the firm. The only options presented were to continue paying them to correct mistakes in their work--despite their already having the necessary information and documentation--or to close the matter and receive only the unused portion of the retainer. They had the opportunity to resolve this privately and chose not to. * My experience with Carol Crossett at Tully Rinckey was extremely disappointing and counterproductive. My 88 year old Mother and I retained the firm for a serious matter involving breach of contract, fraud, discrimination, and retaliation under NY Real Property Law § 223-b. Despite having all the necessary information, documentation, and a detailed timeline laid out directly in front of her, the draft demand letter I received was fundamentally flawed.  The work product contained significant, avoidable errors: it was addressed to an employee who no longer worked for the organization, failed to direct the demand to the correct corporate decision-makers, included factually inaccurate information, and omitted critical claims. Rather than producing the strong legal demand we retained the firm to prepare, the draft read more like an invite to a kid's roller skating party than a serious legal document. The worst part about this is the firm expected us to spend more of our money to correct the mistakes that occurred because the firm failed to review the materials they already possessed.  My interactions with Carol Crossett were dismissive and condescending. She refused to consider reasonable requests for property management reassignment--incorrectly labeling such a request as tortious interference--and minimized our concerns regarding accessibility, safety, and my mother's well-being with comments such as "this is not a nursing home".  Carol Crossett's legal analysis was also deeply concerning and disconnected from the reality of our living situation in Latham, New York. She incorrectly asserted that the parking lot was not a common area and suggested that sidewalk maintenance was the responsibility of the individual residents whose apartments they front, rather than the landlord. Incorrect. Ultimately, I did not receive the courteous consideration and/or the zealous advocacy we were promised. The firm's failure to properly review provided materials and their insistence on billing for a defective work product only added to an already stressful situation. We were left with an unusable draft and nearly depleted retainer. I cannot recommend Carol Crossett or Tully Rinckey. Run.

    HIRED April 2021. FIRED February 2022. I would describe my experience as "PATHETIC." Dictionary…read moredefines Pathetic as -miserably inadequate; of very low standard. I communicated nearly every month and sometimes more than once. I would repeatedly communicate the same content because I would go months without a reply. And when I would receive a reply it had to be edited. Through perseverance I was able to resolve one issue myself. The remaining issues are still pending. I was never more disappointed in a professional than with this law firm. The last charge to my account was September 2021 with a balance due. It is now May 2022 and I received a bill. The bill arrived 8 months after my last charge and 3 months after they were fired. Glad to move on. Not satisfied with the quality or quantity of work performed. I recommend you go elsewhere. This is a sample of a communication from October 2021: I contracted with you in April 2021 to resolve the aforementioned issues. As of October 20, 2021, not one issue has been resolved. I asked you if there would be a conflict of interest with either the Association or the Managing agent that would prohibit you from representing me. 1. Our roof has not been repaired. (9 months) 2. I have no direct line of communication with our Board of Directors. (9 months) 3. The Board of directors has not been forthcoming with any evidence of a Pet violation. (8 months) 4. I have not received either approval or denial of a satellite installation (5 months) The rules and regulations clearly state that the Board of Directors must approve prior to installation - see attachment 5. I asked if I had sufficient legal standing to take the Board of Directors to court to recuperate my legal fees - No response (4 Months) June 27th communication Nine months may not be a lengthy amount of time for you. When your property has been damaged and you are accused of wrongdoing nine months is an eternity. Not one issue has been resolved. If you are unable to produce results or merely answer my questions then you leave me no other choice.
