It was clear to me almost immediately that Jeremy was someone with deep legal knowledge and experience, who understands exactly what it takes to win a case. I found Jeremy to be generous, efficient, highly strategic, and quick to respond. If you work with him expect a direct, concise, and no-BS style of communication. He's a kind person with a great sense of humor, but he also won't allow you to waste his time (and won't waste yours either) -- a great quality for a lawyer to have tbh.

Mr. Pasternak, you did not keep your scheduled telephone appointment with me. You did not bother to…read morecancel or explain. I do not understand why you have so many positive reviews because they do not reflect my experience with an insensitive and arrogant person. Moreover, you lack wisdom. You assume that because the potential client's salary is not high that the case is not worth your time. You are wrong. I am thankful that you did not take my case because I did very well without your assistance.... justice prevailed and I don't need to share my win with you. It's been a learning experience for me. I now understand that for lawyers, it's all about money and that reviews are not reliable.

I was referred to Gomerman Bourn & Associates by another law firm after experiencing employment…read morediscrimination, retaliation, and lack of accommodation following a work-related injury at a large academic medical health system. From the very beginning, communication with the office was excellent. The office assistant, Salma, was responsive and helpful, and attorney Anthony Tartaglia provided outstanding representation. Maria Bourn also oversaw my case and was involved through the process. I communicated in detail and at times I was concerned that I might be providing too much information. Anthony welcomed that communication and reassured me that sharing too much information was always better than leaving out something that could be important to my case. That level of care and concern gave me a great deal of confidence throughout the process. The guidance, communication, and representation I received from Gomerman Bourn & Associates were excellent. As a result of their efforts, the university medical center agreed to provide some accommodations before we moved forward with litigation, although litigation remains an option if necessary. I highly recommend Gomerman Bourn & Associates to anyone seeking knowledgeable, responsive, and dedicated legal representation. I am very grateful for the support and guidance I received from Anthony Tartaglia, Maria Bourn, and the entire office.

It was a 4 year long battle and Arkady never gave up on me even though at times it appeared there was no light at the end of the tunnel. The employer had 3 well paid attorneys vs. a lone Arkady so it was a David vs. Goliath situation. You may think you are looking for an attorney to do all the work for you but you really should be looking for a good partner that you can brain storm and collaborate with because each industry is unique and each industry represents a different set of challenges that your attorney may not be familiar with. A good case is built on a good partnership between you and your attorney. Arkady quickly got up to speed in my specific niche industry and we formulated a plan of attack specific to my unique situation. In the end Arkady helped me build an amazing slam dunk case and negotiated a wonderful settlement 1 month before our jury trial was scheduled to start. I was so grateful with what he did for me and my family that I named my son after him.

I rarely write reviews anymore and almost never write bad reviews at all…read more The background -- I am an enterprise salesperson working in a high tech industry. I had an issue where my company was withholding a large sum of commission, probably somewhere in the ballpark of ~$200k. When I reached out to Minnis & Smallets, I received a prompt response to my inquiry that I was not a client they wished to represent -- was not even granted a brief call with an actual attorney to explain my situation. They literally have an entire page on their website (too wordy btw) devoted to NON-PAYMENT OF COMMISSIONS. So, I'm very curious as to what level of compensation issue cases they are handling if they have the privilege to turn down a probable six-figure judgment in my/their favor...? Oh, and the woman I spoke to was very inarticulate as to why the representation was denied, which was also odd. Bad experience and am happy to go elsewhere.

This was my experience with Nichols Law during a litigious situation that still stings. Amid many tears and sometimes a sense of hopelessness, the entire team at the firm, including Sarah, Brooke and Leslie, was always there for me. Yes, they were my counsel, but it went far beyond that. Despite all the pain, suffering, and stress, I win because I had the most amazing women lifting me up, reminding me of my worth, making me laugh and keeping me sane. There aren't enough adjectives to describe how special these women are, but what I can do is give them five stars on all counts. I encourage anyone in need of legal assistance to reach out to Nichols Law and tell them I sent you! Forever grateful!

From the very beginning, Dylan brought a rare combination of intelligence, empathy, and integrity to every step of the process. He is exceptionally sharp, deeply strategic, and also genuinely human. He took the time to explain things clearly, answered questions patiently, and stayed consistently communicative throughout a long and emotionally demanding legal journey. What stood out most to me is that Dylan truly cares about people. He intentionally does not work with large corporations, and that value shows in how he practices. He understands how ugly these situations can be because he has seen the other side, and he uses that knowledge to protect his clients with thoughtfulness and precision. When it came time for mediation, Dylan was outstanding. He handled it with calm confidence and skill, and he was able to navigate the process in a way that prioritized my well being while still advocating effectively. I felt supported, informed, and safe the entire time. Legal matters like this are not just technical, they are deeply personal. Dylan never lost sight of that. He stood by me for the entire duration of my case, and I will always be grateful for his professionalism, compassion, and steady presence. If you are looking for an attorney who is brilliant, ethical, and genuinely on your side, Dylan is someone you want in your corner.
