Bill was not only knowledgeable, he was also personable and understanding. He explained all the "legalese" in plain English and this provided me with a genuine comfort level. Bill's fees were more than reasonable. His staff is absolutely wonderful. Great phone coverage and the best paralegal. Tonianne was incredibly responsive and always so kind - not to mention smart! They gave you the feeling you were working with friends and with someone who had your interests at hand. Never once worried that I wasn't being represented by the best. Highly recommend Bill and his team. Will actually utilize his services again when we sell my Mom's home in NJ. Great job all around! Santa Melazzo

Because of that he wasn't getting my medical records so when I called the doctor's office is they all said that he never sent the request. He also said that he was going to take care of that I didn't have to pay back New York City HRA for cash assistance but he never reviewed my case so I end up having to pay over $13,000. Find yourself a better lawyer and if you are on cash assistance or get SNAP benefits from New York City you can use hra's lawyers for this I wish I never left them and that I continued my application with them. He lied to me about having to pay back HRA or I would have never signed the agreement for 25% of my settlement find yourself a better lawyer do not use them

Gail Kenowitz is extraordinary! I divorced in 1991 and, at that time, I was too stressed to even…read morethink about the future. I remember telling her at that time that I did not care about his pension and wanted nothing from him. I remember her standing in her office with her hand on her hip saying "I will not allow you to do this - you may need it someday". Move forward to 2018. When it was time for my ex husband to retire he had to give me part of his pension. Although I am in a better place today than all those years ago I decided to take it so my children could benefit from it. I am very grateful to Gail for having the vision so many years ago!

From the start, I felt very comfortable discussing my concerns with Ms. Kenowitz. She is incredibly knowledgeable and truly dedicated to making certain her clients understand all aspects of divorce law as well as making sure that the agreement put forth is just. She took all of my concerns into account, always kept me in the loop and provided a sensitivity often absent in such matters. I recommend her most highly - and am grateful to have found her.

My boyfriend and I closed on our NYC co-op last week and if it wasn't for Michael Simon, I would…read morehave been driven mad. Buying a co-op in New York takes a long time (between 3-6 months) and requires far too many people and a lot of coordination. Michael's involvement in our transaction unequivocally made for a smoother process. Michael's prices were higher than other real estate attorneys that I compared him with; however, his responsiveness and willingness to wrangle those with poor communication made it worth the extra cash. Above all, his response times were impeccable: I was regularly able to reach him with a single phone call and he nearly always responded to missed calls and emails within the hour. It was easy to schedule with him and we dealt with Michael directly 90% of the time, though his assistant Lillian is also great to work with. Out of the cast of 8 involved in our transaction, Michael was without question our most valuable player -- as well as the most humorous. My boyfriend and I highly recommend Michael Simon and would happily work with him in the future.
