We were purchasing a home in Orange County and needed legal representation. Jeana Pinto came with outstanding references so we hired her. Jeana is friendly and is especially knowledgeable in the real estate area. She does not talk down to you like some lawyers I know. Jeana is responsive, detailed, and to the point. Jeana reviewed the contract from the seller's attorney and looked out for our interests which is important. We also worked with Alyssa and she arranged and prepared everything. You can tell they have done this many times. It is important to note that Sobo and Sobo has a satellite office in NYC which is helpful when we had to do a signing in the city. Overall, we got outstanding legal service. A+. read more

I had a very disappointing experience with this law firm. The paralegals handling my case changed frequently, which made communication inconsistent and frustrating. I often had to follow up myself, and updates were rarely provided without prompting. It has been nearly a year since my accident, and there have been significant delays in obtaining records from the clinics I attended for imaging and rehabilitation. Throughout the process, I did not feel that my case was being handled with urgency or genuine care. Overall, I am not satisfied with the level of service I received and would not choose this firm again or recommend them to others. read more

I will never use this firm again. I was moved around to four different attorneys three different paralegals just to ultimately get screwed in the end. They referred me to Oasis Financial for loans during my case and said that they would negotiate the interest on loans which they never did. Was told that the insurance company wanted to settle I said if it was done right away then I would settle. Was told that they agreed to the terms but the insurance company didn't. When the attorney asked me did I want to take it to court I said yes. At that time he sent a motion to sue to the insurance company but didn't file it saying it was a scare tactic. I wouldn't trust this firm for anything. When brought to the attention of the head of the firm he seen nothing wrong with what his attorney's are doing. read more

Communication was poor at best! Never return phone calls. Lied daily if not weekly. 1000% shit show! Being juggled between different attorneys and most of them, not knowing which way they're going. James Smith is about as handy as a screen door on a submarine. Dont waste your time! Get a real attoney that calls you back and makes you feel that your human. I had to beg for call bacl and action from them. After 7 weeks of waiting check never came. Yes you read that right, 7 weeks. Could you imagin going 42 days with no form of payment. They have no heart, no morals no nothing. As a military vet, I got treated like shit. Broken promises, days and weeks waiting for a simple call back, had enought yet. Safe yourself time, energy and fustration. Stay away from them! read more

Horrible service, they don't call you or return calls or emails for over a month, they don't update or work with each other. Very unprofessional from the paralegals to the attorneys read more

I am extremely disappointed with my experience with Sobo & Sobo Law Firm. I was involved in a car accident in August 2024 and trusted this firm to help me. Since then, I have called multiple times, left messages, and even spoken with staff members yet I am constantly told that someone will call me back. That has never happened. On several occasions, I have also been told that they "cannot find my case," which is shocking and frustrating. Then someone else will say that my medical records were just pulled for review. It is clear that there is little to no communication within the firm or with their clients. This has been the worst legal experience I've ever had. As of today, I still have not received a call back or any real update on my situation. I truly regret trusting this firm with my case. read more

5 years, 10 different attorneys, a 3 level fusion in my cervical spine, and I still havent seen any compensation. Now im being told there are leans on the little bit of money that I thought I was getting. After Sobo & Sobo, and the Dr's. Take their cut. I will end up with nothing. I was asked by one of the attorneys if my health or money was more important. I would absolutely want my health back, but thats not going to happen. Im missing 2 disc's in my neck. I hope if I do see any money that I get it while Im still alive!! Horrible attorneys right out of law school, all very young, no experience, and it's a revolving door. What a major disappointment going with this law practice. They did nothing but practice on me!​ Some of them were also rude, and argumentive with me for voicing my disappointment and concerns. The sad thing is I have 2 cases with them read more

This law firm is HORRIBLE. Before you even read this review know this: do not bother on retaining them for any services. From the customer service from the paralegal up to the actual attorney, no one has any knowledge about your personal case. I retained this firm a few months ago and still have yet to be updated on anything regarding the case. Whenever you call-NO ONE HAS ANY INFORMATION EVER. You are constantly told you will be called back by days end, days end comes and goes and no calls. The attorney is never available to answer questions and whenever you do get in contact with them once again they say they will look into it and never call you back. For months I have sent over the paperwork regarding the case and they email back saying they received yet, and then in a few weeks when you ask for an update they say "oh we didn't receive it can you send it again?" Meanwhile there is an email thread where you and the paralegal have confirmed they received it. No one in this firm is here to help you. I do not know how they are rated #1 injury attorney because they are truly some of the most unprofessional people I have probably ever dealt with. The values of this company are to treat their customers as a number, there is no customer service or knowledge on your case or anything for that matter. If you do decide to go with this firm, do so at your own risk. Once again, I do NOT RECOMMEND this firm. Overall they are horrible from the beginning. I regret going with this firm and am happy I will no longer be utilizing them. read more

The absolute worst law firm in NYC! The lawyers that I dealt with and paralegals are very unprofessional, lack communication skills and has an excuse for all their shortcomings. When I complained about an unprofessional paralegal attorney Matt made 1000 and one excuses as to why she was a good person, never once apologizing for her rudeness only to find out she was fired 2 weeks later. The same above-mentioned lawyer is the absolute worst at returning calls and emails as is his partner attorney Ash. It took them 1 year to get a dismal settlement from an insurance company which I could have done myself. I will never under no circumstance utilize this law firms services nor will I recommend them. read more

I was in a motorcycle accident. The following day i signed a retainer with sobo and sobo. I was assigned a paralegal that was on vacation and a lawyer that i never heard back from after 2 days. After calling countless times and speaking to no one but intake staff telling me theyd send emails to my lawyer, i became fed up. They were unable to assist me in seeking further medical attention and refused to address my desire to terminate my retainer. The intake people were inconsiderate and dismissive. I finally contacted another lawyer to send a termination letter. read more

No response after numerous calls about my case. Their paralegals do not care at all. Stay Away!

This firm won't answer your calls nor will they return your calls. I have gone for months trying to reach someone on my team and I have left plenty of messages. I don't know what is going on. I have had this firm for a year and 3 months. I have recommended a few people to them, in the beginning, now these people are barely speaking to me and they advises me not to recommend anyone else to them. I won't go into the reason why. read more

Terrible firm they take on more case loads than they can handle. On top of he 33% that all the firms charge they charge a "miscellaneous charge with no cap on it" I asked what is was for they said paperwork any any research the lawyer has to do, so what is 33% for? They will make up hours they did not actually work to find ways to charge the client more. I had workers comp case and the lawyer just stopped contacting me.I checked in periodically and was told it was a work in progress. Eventually years passed. When I called to inquire. There was a note in my file. Case closed unable to reach client. A blatant lie.My address, and all contact info was unchanged. They dropped the ball. I had a MVA hit by a commercial vehicle and was referred to them the lawyer never contacted me after my intake and contract was signed. Then he would call and when I answered he would hang up and saying something is wrong with his phone. Then he sent a text "Hi this is your lawyer".I text hi I have a few questions. No repose for weeks. I was calling and emailing the paralegal no response. I asked about my PIP/no fault which I was not getting only payment from my union he said what ever you are getting is what you are entitled to , which was totally incorrect. Paralegal was useless I was always redirected to the attorney for basic fundamental matters and he was never responsive.They are more concerned with running up your tab than getting you a good settlement. I ended up going with another firm.Poor quality service, Low Value. Did not full fill service requested. read more

I had a frustrating and stressful experience with Sobo & Sobo. I contacted the firm through a referral through Top Dog Law because I was seeking a great attorney to assist me with my auto accident case. I signed a representation agreement on April 7, but by April 9, I still hadn't been assigned an attorney or legal team. When I called to follow up, I was transferred to someone named Alba in the intake department. She was curt, dismissive, and completely unprofessional. I simply asked questions about the agreement I had signed and whether I should have received a copy, and instead of helping, Alba got defensive and impatient. She even hung up on me, then admitted she did so intentionally because "the call was over." When I called back, she maintained the same attitude and informed me that my case still hadn't been forwarded to the supervising attorney, Jennifer Quinones Rosado from the Cleveland/New York office(s). At that point, I told her I no longer wanted Sobo & Sobo to represent me. She noted the cancellation which was today, Wednesday , April 9, 2025 at 6:15pm EST, and said I'd receive a formal notice by mail. Also, as of the time of this post I still haven't received the copy of the agreement that Alba promised to send to me via email (she lied!). This entire process added unnecessary stress during an already difficult time. I was looking for guidance and professionalism, but received the opposite. Definitely not the kind of support you expect from a law firm. read more

Worst law firm do not used. Poor communication. They lie. No calls email or text . When case finished. They hold your money and hide

A Profoundly Disappointing Experience My experience with Sobo & Sobo during a major personal injury case was deeply disappointing. Over the course of four years, I felt neglected, misled, and ultimately pressured into a settlement that didn't meet my needs. I'm sharing this review so others can make an informed decision when choosing legal representation. From the beginning, communication was a serious problem. I rarely received updates on my case unless I reached out first, and even then, most responses were brief and came from a paralegal instead of my actual attorney. When I had questions or concerns, I felt like they were brushed aside. This lack of transparency left me in the dark and added unnecessary stress to an already challenging situation. Beyond communication, I felt the firm failed to properly prepare my case. Important evidence and paperwork that could have strengthened my position seemed overlooked, and I wasn't adequately prepared for key moments like depositions. I was never offered advice on anything matter, lost. This left me feeling unsupported and unprotected as I moved through the legal process. One of the most upsetting moments came just a week or two before my trial, when my attorney was suddenly replaced. The new attorneys, immediately pushed me to accept a settlement I didn't want, simultaneously all together 3 attorneys pushing me towards a low ball settlement, and then stating it was my choice but not with much hope. Despite voicing my concerns, I felt pressured to agree. The settlement didn't come close to addressing the financial and personal impact of my injuries, but I felt like I had no real choice in the matter. On top of that, the firm failed to honor a verbal promise of discounts. This discount was a key part of our discussions, but it was not reflected in the final billing. Instead, I was charged 33% of the settlement plus an additional $13,500 in expenses, with no clear explanation or itemization. The lack of transparency in billing practices deepened my frustration and disappointment. This was a life-altering case for me, and I trusted Sobo & Sobo to handle it with care and professionalism. Unfortunately, my experience left me feeling like my case wasn't a priority, and the firm's actions didn't align with the trust I placed in them. I'm sharing my experience to inform others. If you're considering Sobo & Sobo, I encourage you to look carefully at your options. A good attorney should prioritize their client's well-being, communicate openly, and handle cases with diligence and transparency. Based on my experience, I can't recommend this firm. You deserve legal representation that puts your needs first. Unfortunately, that wasn't my experience with Sobo & Sobo. read more

My attorney that work for this law firm is super hard to get in contact with, they do not call you in regards to your case. If they do and you miss it then you call right back they do not answer the phone. I should've read the reviews before I signed my name on the dotted lines. Save you all some time do not call top dog law. read more

If I could leave 0 stars, I would. Their lack of empathy for small claim clients is ridiculous. They never answer phone calls, never respond to emails, and never respond to voicemails. They sign you up and move on with their big corporation clients, leaving you in the unknown. They sit on your requests, never request records, never enter demands, or anything. They do absolutely nothing but drag things out. They only care about 6 figure settlements. No way a small bumper to bumper accident would take 4 years. 4! Please stay away from this firm. They are predators. read more

** I truly hope this review helps someone make a better choice and get the compensation they deserve. I'm a disabled combat veteran and the loss of my finger re triggered my combat trauma I am an absolute victim in my case however this attorneys office blew it. It cost me 6 figures to bring you this information** Nearly 5 years and a plethora of grey hairs later all I have to show for it are an amputated finger and a plethora of grey hairs. I asked the attorney to stop calling me and to email me instead. I'm just tired of hearing lies honestly but he refuses to email me and won't stop calling. :| have some basic human respect dude. I'm exhausted and traumatized by this point. They ruined another bus accident case of mine with total amateur paralegals who lost the information I sent somehow. Despite the fact I sent it digitally. read more

If I could give the z 0 I would. The lawyer assigned to my case did not register his license and 2 paralegals, if they were that, disappointed and disappeared. All their office numbers are busy all day and night. They have call centers allover the country and when you call back their numbers, they don't identify with Sobo and Sobo. They are usually a utility office or grocery store. Awful. They promise the work but deliver trash. read more

Keep looking! The CEO of this firm called me and said, "I'll take your case and I will win it!" Then he hands it off to children who seem to be more interested in lunch than providing service. They lost all of my emails, faxes and 1 USPS, never return phone calls and are overly condescending. Look elsewhere. read more

After my case was accepted, I was told how a recent client with a similar incident was awarded $80,000. I was hopeful. But after almost 10 months of Sobo & Sobo doing virtually nothing, they told me the "law" did not give me a valid case. Did the law change in 10 months or did they simply decide it was not worth their while? Complete waste of almost a year. Never again!! read more

This is a big firm. So they can command respect. We had a small case but they took no movement. Good for Middletown Monsey but not NYC proper. Greg is very charming will promise you the world overvalue. When we switched we had to run to get action our next firm not great. We had no choice. Time will tell whether they can meet Gregs optimistic valuation. AS our current firm mentioned S and S took no action. We were thinking of returning and We had a barrage of over 30 calls to take down our bad Google reviews but put up one then he will take back case. Guess what he never took it back. We were rushed to another firm due to their inaction. Gregory Sobo is a smooth talker. A figure head. Dont rely on him. If assigned an attorney, ride them, follow them, most PI attorneys neglect read more

This is a horrible firm. because of their miscalculations, the client pays for their errors. they make agreements with clients and break their agreements. its takes this for. a year to pay out settlements, accrue interest on the settlements, and keep the interest. in between the time they receive the settlement monies and they pay out to their clients, they do not communicate anything. they actually ignore their clients and block them from calling. yet they are quick to lie and steal from their clients. this is the worst firm for professionalism and honesty. at the end, they basically give you whatever is left after they take additional fees that were never disclosed and expect you to take the money and shut up about it. I would t recommend this firm to anyone read more

my husband had an accident that left him permanently disabled, your firm at first had us work with an attorney who not only did not submit the paperwork but had lied and said he did , that was for 6 months, then since then all we hear is that you can't claim this that because of the time period. It's YOUR firm that neglected to provide adequate representation. so here we are with the most annoying of the attorneys and that person is working for them or the firm because of them we received NO settlement for him. I will NEVER recommend this Firm to anyone. read more

Terrible,rude, no communication. Been working with them on a basic case for years. They say they call you back by the end of the day but as Maury Povich would say "and that was a lie!" read more

I was referred to this law firm by a Pennsylvania attorney as my wife was injured at work in NY. We received a call back from one one woman who took down all the information as she asked many questions. She then set up for a phone consulation with an attorney the very next day. Well, never heard from any attorney so I contacted the office and we received a message late in the day from another woman at the firm. She said she would call us the next day. Well, still haven't heard from her or any one else. Fine if they don't want the case, tell us that. Not professional at all. We moved on to another attorney firm, one from NYC this time, and what a difference when dealing with professionals. I would not recommend Sobo & Sobo for workers comp case assistance. read more

These guys helped me, and for that alone they get 5 stars - but the best part of my time with them is the fact that they actually cared about me, what happened to me, my own situation - and not just how much money they could make off my injuries. Amazing people, 10/10 experience, I would recommend them to anyone who's hurt and needs legal help. read more

I was hit from behind back in 2019 from a woman who was on her phone. I made the mistake of going with the most popular firm, instead of doing a little homework. Over the next 2 years, my lawyer rarely responded to my emails- I constantly had to ask him to reply to give me updates. Everytime I asked if he spoke with the adjuster he would say, "I called him back, but I just missed him." Or, "I'm sorry, I've been really busy." Long story short, my case was finally settled, and I received the minimum payment settlement. When I received the bill, on top of the 33% they received, I was charged another 400+ for filing fees- and STAMPS. Sobo got 8,333.00 on a 25,000 settlement- And they charged me for stamps. At no point did I ever feel my case meant anything, or was a priority. I even wrote to Gregory Sobo, when I could not get a response from my attorney- He didn't get back either. I believe b/c my case was small, it was treated as small. It was never a priority- and during the entire process I wished I had gone to a lawyer who was paid on hours worked and devoted to the case, not a flat fee. I'll have problems with my shoulder for the rest of my life; and Sobo literally got half of what I received. For what? A few templates that were filled out by the secretaries, and a couple of phone calls. Cannot express the nightmare this was for me. Still can't get over the Stamps. 8,333.00 and stamps were not included. read more

Sobo and sobo is very unprofessional they assigned me a lawyer ( Crystal Taylor )who had my case for 3 weeks without even contacting me. I finally got in contact with her drove an hour to there middle town office to sit down with her she said ahe would handle everthing. That same night she sends a text message asking if I can return to her office in 2 days it seemed weird so I text back saying no problem but was there and issue why would she need to see me again we just spoke nothing new had happen. She did not respond I show up to her office in 2 days later (still no response from her )only to find out I wasn't meeting with her I was meeting with the supervisor Ashley. Now after driving and hour and waiting 20 min to speak to Ashley she told me they would not be able to take my case due to the fact the the other person that hit my car had also come to them for assistance and they would have to refer both parties to another law firm. (Something I could have been told via phone before driving an hour). She guaranteed me that in a few days they would help me find another lawyer that works very close with there company but not for sobo and sobo. She said this would be a smooth transaction and would only take a few days. Its been 2 weeks no one has reached out and everytime I call Sara the paralegal claims to see the notes but claims she didn't know why or what is taking so long. Very unprofessional and waste of my time I would never go here or refer ANYONE here......BEWARE!!!! read more
