Firm-Wide Negligence, No Accountability from Leadership
I retained Cohen, Feeley, Altemose & Rambo for a time-sensitive civil case. After months of vague updates, their attorney, Michael McKarski, told me my case was "ready for litigation." That same day, he withdrew--without filing anything and without providing any transition support.
What followed was worse. The "case file" I received was incomplete, missing over 100 internal communications, strategy notes, and documentation I later had to reconstruct myself. There was no written litigation plan, no summary of findings, and no effort made to preserve continuity.
I sent multiple formal requests for clarity--copying senior partners, including Mark Altemose and Martin Cohen. None of them responded. No explanation. No follow-up. No acknowledgment of what happened.
The firm had every opportunity to intervene, correct the damage, or at the very least, ensure a professional transition. They did nothing.
The result was a total breakdown in legal process, documentation, and trust--during an active and ongoing dispute. These aren't just procedural mistakes. They're failures of basic legal responsibility.
The entire situation is now documented, timestamped, and submitted to oversight authorities. If you're entrusting this firm with serious legal matters, understand that when things go wrong, you may be met with silence from the top down. read more
