I found him to be measured, thoughtful and caring. He offered not only wise legal counsel but also proved to be compassionate and thoughtful in helping the process stay centered on what was best for our child.

A great lawyer who understands the human side and was tough when he needed to be too! Thank you Tyler so very much!

**Caution Advised Before Retaining This Firm**…read more Based on my experience with Maya Murphy, LLP, I cannot recommend their services. My full story is below if you care to read on, but here are alternative firms to engage in CT and NY: **Connecticut** * Lucas and Varga, LLC: [https://lucasvargalaw.com](https://lucasvargalaw.com) * Richard L. Pate Law Offices: [https://www.richardlpateconnecticutemploymentlawyer.com](https://www.richardlpateconnecticutemploymentlawyer.com) **New York** * Granovsky & Sundaresh PLLC: [https://g-s-law.com](https://g-s-law.com) * Phillips & Associates: [https://www.newyorkcitydiscriminationlawyer.com](https://www.newyorkcitydiscriminationlawyer.com) While initial consultations were promising and the firm appeared engaged after I paid a \$5,000 retainer, the quality of service quickly declined. Communication became sporadic, and billing lacked transparency--there were long stretches with no updates, followed by a sudden, substantial bill. After partial payment, they indicated they would no longer negotiate on my behalf unless the outstanding amount was paid in full. At several points, it appeared the firm prioritized their fees over my case. Promises of strong representation and an optimistic outcome did not materialize. In fact, the handling of the matter ultimately weakened my position, and the final settlement amount covered mostly legal fees--with little benefit to me as a client. Key issues I experienced include: * Long periods with no attorney contact * Last-minute reassignment to a different lawyer with little context * Missed or delayed meetings * Poor communication and apparent lack of case familiarity * Settlement pressure with little room for discussion These concerns mirror those raised in other negative reviews. I urge potential clients to research thoroughly and consider alternative firms before proceeding. This review reflects my personal experience and is intended to help others make informed decisions.

James Maye was my attorney for my purchase of a residential property in October 2019. Because it…read morewas a newly constructed property, the closing was delayed for more than 6 months. James Maye had always been on top of my case for the long process and treated my case as if he was buying his own property.

Basically a mess! Jonathan is absolutely amazing. I would 100% recommend him. As I searched through a long list of over 20 lawyers, Jonathan was the most responsive, very professional, understanding and straight to the point. He is extremely thorough in his work, very reasonable pricing, and provides legal advice and services that exceed the value of his compensation. His work and educational background in social work also assured me that he strongly supports justice against those who look to scam others, and after speaking with him I was only further assured. After being scammed, Jonathan has been a saving grace for me.
