I came…read moreto Gouchev Law by a friend's referral, I believe they had client agreements made, but my own experience began with a trademark and the entire process and customer service was great! Jana, the managing attorney at the firm, explained everything I needed to know about trademark registration. As I'm on the other side of the country, she was gracious enough to hold a video conference with me. She has been so helpful with the trademark application that I decided to involve her services in other business matters such as reviewing contracts and helping us form legally sound working relationships. I really never thought our business attorney would become so valuable. I'm glad I gave them a try, and truly cannot recommend them enough - great to work with, very helpful, well connected, insightful, and honest.

I finally have the opportunity to write a review on my experience with Jana and her law firm. If…read moreyou are a SMALL BUSINESS I would NOT look to Jana for services or guidance on anything legal. The only reason I'm giving the law firm 3 stars is because Jana put two separate paralegals one on each of my two issues/cases, which I paid the firm to handle. Dorthy was one attorney Jana put in charge of one of my cases. Dorothy was very kind, took time to call and speak with me often. Even though the outcome was not in my favor, Dorothy explained EVERYTHING to me, as I was trying to get a better understanding of my rights etc. Now the second attorney did not explain anything to me when it came to my second case/issue. I explained to Jana that I wasn't happy with that and she got on a call right away to explain things. However, I still never received a clear understanding of what I was paying for and once I realized I was charged $1,900 for only a google search with no real explanation or insight I was rightfully upset! I complained a second time to Jana via email and she replied back with disgust that she never received complaints or has never had unhappy clients. She was clearly annoyed by my lack of understanding and my asking for understanding, as well as my dissatisfaction with the lack of service I received for what I payed. Let's be clear. If you want to spend $1,900 for someone to only do a patent search and not explain anything to you once the search is done, then definitely hire this firm. However there are other attorneys who will jump on a call, not limit you or the amounts of time you to 3 calls only. Look for an attorney/law firm who definitely wants to see your small business win! Not one who is looking for their next pay check aka you!

The…read moreschool had entered into an unlawful agreement with me and flagrantly violated consumer finance laws by sending threatening demand letters for debt when there was no debt. John clearly explained my rights to me and the school backed off. John took on my case when most other lawyers didn't see it as worth the time. For other lawyers who would take my case, these people wanted me to settle and pay this school a settlement payment and sign an NDA. John helped me avoid paying any more money to con artists and I don't have an NDA binding me to silence.

Most people looking for a litigation attorney focus on the wrong things -- responsiveness, bedside…read moremanner, how the consultation feels. None of that wins your case. What wins is the quality of what your attorney puts in front of the judge and whether they know the system well enough to use it. Gary represented us in Kings County Supreme Court. The landlord retained Rosenberg & Estis -- one of the largest landlord-side real estate litigation firms in New York City, with over 200 attorneys. Case dismissed in its entirety. All arrears waived. New caselaw established. He assessed the case within hours, identified the legal theory that won, made his own calls about what evidence to use and what to discard, and moved for summary judgment at exactly the right moment. Litigation is slow, Gary won't sugarcoat anything while you learn how to manage patience. His role isnt to keep you comfortable. He's working the case, not managing your anxiety. His work on our case established new caselaw -- the court held that Good Cause Eviction protections apply to common law ejectment actions, closing a loophole landlords were exploiting to bypass tenant protections. That precedent now protects tenants across NYC. Every other tenant in our building -- facing the same landlord, the same facts, the same condo conversion -- either lost their case or gave up. We were the only ones who fought and won. The difference was the attorney. If you're dealing with anything involving real estate in New York -- landlord-tenant disputes, lease issues, ejectment, condo conversions -- Gary knows these courts, this body of law, and how to make procedure work in your favor. That's what you're paying for.

If you have a landlord/dispute or rent stabilization case, don't hire this guy! I paid this guy…read morealmost $1,300 and he is the laziest shiftless lawyer I have every worked with. I booked a consultation and paid $90. He gives you a two hour window that he will call you with and not an exact time. When he finally did call, he was in his car, driving half paying attention. He has a good online presence and I already invested $90 so I decided to move forward with him a couple months after the consultation. He charges $1,200 for out of court negotiation. $4,500 if your landlord/tenant sues first and 10K to sue your landlord/tenant first Long story short. He makes excuses, has very little communication and there is almost a week between emails. I paid him $1,200 to review my documents and get back to me with the full intension of paying him the $4500 when my landlord tried to sue me because my landlord illegally deregulated my apartment from rent stabilization. I ended up hiring another lawyer, who I won't name on this review but he did what Ari could not do in 3 weeks in 1 hour. The other lawyer I spoke to kept me on hold, asked me questions and we sent documents back and forth over the line. He told me I had a good case and within a week, we were ready to file. When you send Ari a document, instead of responding immediately or asking a question. He waits a week, then asks a question and then it will take another week to hear from him and then he simply asks another question. Instead of anticipating an gathering all the things he needs up front. He plays the waiting game with you. He once told he would get back to me in a week. 9 days passed and I HAD TO REACHOUT to him. He said he had 'covid' and was behind. If he was so behind, why not be pro-active and reach out to your clients ahead of time. Seemed like a lie. I could go on with more stories and anecdotes but he doesn't know what he is doing. I paid out money to another lawyer and a consultant and they didn't need 3 weeks to tell me whether or not I had a good case.
