Judy is remarkably thorough and efficient, but she also brings a level of empathy that is hard to find. I immediately enjoyed working with her because she is compassionate and never made me feel like she was forcing a decision on us or just 'trying to make a buck.' What I appreciated most was her honesty. Her delivery can be blunt, but it was exactly what we needed to cut through the endless legal options and streamline the process. She clearly respects her clients' time and doesn't like to waste a second, so she does speak quickly. However, if you come prepared with your questions, take diligent notes, and show a genuine interest in the work, you will have a very successful partnership. She took the time to walk us through everything with visual PowerPoints and answered every follow-up email with patience. She is a brilliant resource, worth every penny, and we will be retaining her for all our future needs. We feel so much more secure knowing Judy is our lawyer!

She answered all of our questions and took the time to make sure we were ultimately comfortable with the decisions. She was available and did not pressure us in any way.

We will be recommending her to all of our friends.

Dealing with the justice system for the first time after an unfair situation can very stressful and…read moreunfamiliar. To me, having to meet David was a blessing. Not only he's an amazing attorney, but he also guides you through the process and gives you the moral support and guidance one needs during tough moments. After researching and hiring the wrong attorneys before meeting David, I was recommended to David by a friend. I recall texting him in the middle of the night. He immediately responded and counseled me even without being my attorney then. After meeting other attorneys that took days to respond and were more interested in my wallet, I knew David was by far the most attentive; his fast response can calm someone in the worst moments. David is an honest person. He dedicates his time to make sure you get the best outcome of whatever the situation is as he knows all the cards on the deck and players. Monica and David will treat you and care for you like family and fully dedicate to their clients. I feel blessed to have met David, and I'm very happy with my case's outcome. He raises the bar for lawyers in a professional and personal way. A true warrior that fights until the end.

David Levine is not cheap and he does not have a calming bed side manner…read more with that said: i've been in trouble in the past and unfortunately have had to hired many lawyers. David tells it like it is, explains everything with a paper and pencil, gives his opinion, and conducts his business like it should be done. It's easy to go thru every detail as my case took over a year to finally end in probation, but i will say that David predicted the outcome very early on. He knows everyone in court and is well liked, he showed up every time and communicated any absence during court negotiations thru his friendly staff. My situation got a little sticky in the end with dates and times as i had to serve 1 day in jail to complete the sentence, David was like a concerned parent and seemed to ride out the day tracking my status and even contacting people who were running my business. David also agreed to help terminate probation after 18 months and his secretary Monica helped with detailed instructions on how to get bail money back. This is after they are paid and after Davids job was done. i hope to never need another lawyer but if i do, and not to sound like a commercial here, I'll be calling David Levine.

GOT A TRAFFIC TICKET? CALL JAMES AND HIS TEAM, YOU WONT REGRET IT!…read more I received a speeding ticket for going 51 in a 25 zone and for an uninspected vehicle here in NYC. James Meadows was my first call shortly after receiving my ticket. He promptly responded to my inquiry, provided me an upfront price, gave me a straightforward way to pay, and explained to me what he can, cannot do and what to potentially expect and not expect. His communication is clear and concise. His level of professionalism and integrity is phenomenal, at least in my experience. He went above and beyond while trying to do everything in his ability to get my tickets dismissed however, he was not able to do so not because of anything he did or didn't do but just because NYC does not plead tickets down and 99.9 % of the time the police officers show up in addition to their verbal deposition there's also the body cam footage and other evidence that is very hard and difficult to get thrown out. Despite a partial negative outcome, he was able to secure a warning from the judge instead of a suspension in addition to the points, which is my eyes is a good outcome thanks to James! Although it's not the outcome I wanted, it's a reasonable one that I am content with. If I ever get cited for any other traffic infraction in the future, he will for sure be my first call again. The moral of the story is do not break traffic laws, but if you do call James because he and his team will do everything reasonable in their ability to secure the best positive outcome possible. Also, James has a pretty sexy voice and is pretty hot to look at!

Every lawyer I contacted turned me away--except Geoffrey Schotter. When my employer, New York…read moreState, broke me under extraordinary conditions, causing an acute mental health crisis, Geoffrey didn't just take my case--he built it into something undeniable. He is not just a lawyer; he is a force for workers' rights. Schotter Millican LLP Doesn't Just Represent Clients; They Redefine the Fight for Justice I walked into this case knowing the odds were stacked against me and ready to do it alone if necessary. But with Geoffrey Schotter, I didn't have to. I had already reached out to multiple attorneys, and every single one turned me away, but not because my case wasn't real, but because it was too difficult, too risky, too untested. Geoffrey Schotter was the last lawyer I contacted before I was prepared to represent myself. He was my last hope. And, as it turned out, he was the most important one. When my employer, New York State, had pushed me beyond my limits, breaking me under extraordinary and extreme conditions until I suffered an acute mental health crisis, Geoffrey was the one who stepped in. He worked through every detail, saw the full weight of what had happened, and built a case that refused to let my suffering be dismissed as 'just part of the job.' Beyond Representation: A Relentless Pursuit of Justice What sets Geoffrey apart is that he doesn't just argue a case; he builds it with intention, precision, and an acute awareness of every possible challenge. Every potential counter argument was anticipated and addressed before it could be used. Every detail that might have been questioned was already accounted for. By the time we got to summation, there was no shaky ground left to stand on. And he didn't just take one route; he gave my case multiple paths to victory. * A clear argument for my claim as a work-related accident under the Workers' Compensation Law. * A strategic foundation for establishing it as a novel occupational disease case if needed. * A preemptive dismantling of any attempt to claim that my breakdown was a direct consequence of a lawful personnel action. Each argument stood on its own, but together, they created something undeniable. Sharp, Focused, and Completely Unapologetic Geoffrey can be snappy, short, frustrated, and even frustrating at times. But that's what it takes to push the law forward. When you're forcing the system to acknowledge its own failures, when you're fighting for something that hasn't been fought before, there's no time for hesitation or unnecessary pleasantries. He operates at a level of focus, intensity, and precision that makes lesser arguments collapse before they even begin. He doesn't waste words. He doesn't waste time. He gets to the point, and the point is razor-sharp. If you're looking for someone to soften the truth or go through the motions, he is not your guy. But if you want a lawyer who will force the opposition to answer for every single thing they overlooked, dismissed, or ignored; who will push through legal barriers that most attorneys wouldn't even think to challenge; this is the lawyer you need. Staying Three Steps Ahead of the Opposition Geoffrey didn't just respond; he dictated the pace. The defense barely had room to move because he didn't just prove my case, rather he forced them to confront their own failures in a way they couldn't ignore. He took their best possible arguments and preemptively turned them against them. And it wasn't just about me. He made sure the court saw the bigger picture; the systemic failure, the pattern of harm, the need for change. This case was never just about compensation. It was about holding a system accountable for what it had done to its workers. The Lawyer You Call When You Refuse to Be Dismissed This isn't just about winning a case. This is about fighting for what's right in a system that often hopes people like me give up. Geoffrey didn't just refuse to let me give up, he made sure I had the legal firepower to fight back. I walked into this case expecting to fight for myself. Instead, I found someone who fought with me, for justice, for accountability, and for every worker who has ever been told that suffering is just part of the job. The work of protecting healthcare workers, public servants, all of us--is far from finished. The fight does not end in the courtroom. The law does not evolve without those who are willing to challenge its limits. Geoffrey Schotter is not just a lawyer; he is proof that the battle for workers' rights is still worth fighting.
