I do not recommend using Pardalis & Nohavicka. P&N took too long to analyze my case. During this…read moretime there was a chain of emails sent back and forth. I paid them on 5/20/25 10,000 dollars. By 6/5/25 their team of lawyers failed to give me a proper analysis of my case. I asked for a refund. I had to pay over 5000.00 just for P&N to tell me that they still had not a full analysis of my case. The lawyer I spoke to was not even a real estate lawyer. I had to find another lawyer to take my case. This was an absolute waste of time, energy and money.

There are rockstars and there are lawyers but every now and then the stars align and a unicorn of a…read morerockstar lawyer appears. Tara is one such almost impossible rockstar lawyer. In the middle of the day a tragic miscarriage of justice occurred to someone I know, we turned to Tara for counsel to help that person. In half a day things transformed from a seemingly dire situation, with confusing information passed to us from law enforcement, to a complete resolution, with clear and accurate information about the process from Tara. I have worked with attorneys from GT, Latham Watkins, DLA Piper, and more big name firms but rarely experienced this kind of expertise in the matters I've needed counsel on. There isn't another attorney in Manhattan I would trust with someone who need a criminal defense lawyer.

Highly recommend to anyone looking for someone reliable, knowledgeable, and truly dedicated to their clients.

Richard is knowledgeable, very confident, and experienced attorney. I paid $400 to have him…read morerepresent me in traffic court, where I had three tickets related to a fender bender. The tickets carried 2 points each, and the fines were $330-$800. In our consult, Richard said he would get two tickets dropped, and the third ticket amended to no points. He cautioned me that the prosecutor will give me a higher fine to drop the ticket. I was excited at the prospect so I hired him on the spot. I didn't speak to him again until the day before the court appearance. He informed me that he was able to get one ticket dropped, but there would be no points on my record. I'll admit I was disappointed that I had to plead guilty to two tickets, but I was still very grateful for no points. On the day of the court appearance, it was another attorney that I never spoke to before. He spoke with the prosecutor just before court began. I pled guilty and had to pay $230 in fines. Considering the $450 surcharge for 6 points & fines over $400, it was worth it to hire an attorney. Admittedly, I could have spoken with the prosecutor and negotiated a plea before seeing the judge. However, I wasn't willing to take that risk! Overall, I was pretty satisfied & hopeful that I'll never be in traffic court again.

a friend of mine gave me his name and number a few years ago when i told him i was thinking about…read morecreating my will. yes, it took me a few years to finally decide to do it so i called him on december 4, 2023. he, himself, answered the phone and we had a nice phone conversation for 24 minutes and 57 questions. he took down my information and asked me various questions making it a point to get generalities without any details. since i own a house, he suggested 2 strategies to avoid probate (putting my heir on the deed now or setting up a trust. i immediately chose the trust option). at the end of the conversation he said he had to do some research on the trust option (since we only talked generalities i didnt understand why but i didnt question it - he could have been extremely busy with other cases). well, friday, 12/16/23 came and i didnt here from him. christmas 2023 and new years day 2024 came and went and i didnt here from him. now its the end of january 2024 and i still havent heard from him. while the will itself probably wouldnt have netted him a very large fee from me, my research indicated the setup of the trust isnt a cheap thing to do. if he didnt want to do the work because he was that busy, why didnt he just tell me. if he called the person who gave me his name and number and found out that we are actually not friends anymore, why didnt he just tell me he couldnt work with me. if he no longer does wills and trusts, why didnt he just tell me that. i would have understood any of the above and about any other excuse not to do my will and trust. my rating should be half a star but that option doesnt exist. i knew he wasnt interested in my business in mid december but i officially gave him this time just in case he got hit by a car or something else along those lines. finally i would like to officially say to mr birch - YOU ARE FIRED!!!!!!!!!! dont use him. he is not professional at all. by the way, if i could figure a way to print my call log from my cell phone and block out my other calls, i would have included a pic showing i did talk to him on december 4, 2023 for 25 minutes.
