Apparently I was "too much time spent on" not worthy, charged me a premium and had someone who didn't even get his law degree yet represent me. By the way spodek will not represent you. His unqualified "lawyers" who didn't pass the bar exam will. Shady business Absolutely disgusting behavior from front desk ms Williams. And empty promises. Honest opinion. Never met Spodek once. Representation and communication was weak and the rate for service were high. After 32 hrs of community service $5000 and a stain on my record, DEFINITIVELY WOULD NOT RECOMMEND FOR HIRE Mind you my charges were 2 misdemeanors and I had a clean record. Funny part is. I was actually the victim in it all. Not pleased. Please save your money and go to another firm. I've attached a photo of how dismissive spodek is and even talked in a way that made me fear him for not taking down the honest review. But I think people should know the kind of firm this is.

Any unjust offense can take a toll on your family, however, I couldn't be more grateful for their expertise and dedication to help resolve this matter.

Reviews are not a reliable way to determine if an attorney is good or not…read more Rely on referral from family and friends. The reviews on here are not a good reflection of my experience with Julie Rendelman. I am a Persian Gulf/ Iraq Freedom Veteran and was framed when my sons mother made a false race based 911 call against me. Unfortunately I did not record her with my cell phone to prove that. Moreover, I was relying solely on my attorney to give my case the attention it deserved. This incident happened on March 11th. It is now August. COVID did more work than her. She did absolutely nothing besides ask me if I would accept my charges dropped down to a violation. And dump her load onto a lesser experienced junior attorney. I made it clear in the beginning that I would not accept any plea. I explained to her over and over about being empathetic to my circumstances of having my son kidnapped from me using the corrupt broken system. They seemed so dull, close minded or blinded by the court room politics. Institutionalized by the court room that they forgot what it's like to be a human being. And what really happens when people are going through a custody battle. Take your head out of the law books and put your eyes and ears to the streets and pay attention to what really goes on. My experience seems very similar to the other bad review on here. She seem to be better at accepting deals with the DA. Conflict of interest rather than doing what's best for the client. I question the integrity of the reviews on here. They seem exaggerated, fabricated and a misrepresentation of this firm. I certainly did not have a five star experience and would like to inform others of that so you are not fooled by it like I was. She did not do any work in the court room as all of my dates kept getting adjourned. I still haven't received my detailed invoice, so I will be taking further action including filing a grievance. I think it's very important that the public stay informed on this. Enough is enough. #BLM
