Thank you so much for all of your advice and help!
“I can’t say enough good things about these guys. Their service is worth every penny, super responsive and have a wonderful staff. I had consulted so many other lawyers and just didn’t feel they were a right fit. From the moment I spoke to Mr Kofman, I felt so much better and confident in him. Everything he said he would do, he did. I was not charged a penny more than what I was quoted, which was surprising from my previous experiences with other lawyers. On top of that, I feel like the whole team went above and beyond for us. I highly recommend these guys to everyone.”

“For the past year I’ve been fighting for my freedom. My world seemed like it was crashing before my eyes. I had 2 felony gun possession cases in Manhattan. From the beginning Russ and John were there. I was denied bail at my first hearing but they fought to over turn that so I can fight the case from the outside world instead of a jail cell. They even got my bail reduced to a reasonable number afterwards. Moving forward they faught hard and relentless. Until ultimately BOTH cases were dismissed. Miracles do happen.”
