This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

Quick response

I was impressed by the quickness and rapidity at which Altman and Altman was able to respond to our urgent request for representation. They jumped on the issue, provided a clear plan of action, and then began following through on that plan in a matter of hours, clearly communicating what we could exp...ect.

Fantastic experience working with this firm

I engaged the services of Altman & Altman after my recent bike accident, and they have been amazingly efficient, knowledgeable, professional, and functioned as my advocate with the insurance company to get me the fairest settlement possible. Anthony O'Connor was assigned to my case, and he kept me a...pprised of progress every step of the way. He offered what I would label "valet service" in terms of making every part of the process easy for me. He ensured that all medical bills were covered, followed up on each property damage portion of the claim (re: my bicycle equipment), and he successfully negotiated the best settlement available given the constraints of the insurance company. It has been an absolute pleasure dealing with Anthony, and I highly recommend him as a top-notch legal advocate.

Altman and Altman delivers

Rick and his team were complete crackerjacks for what I know was a tedious and arduous case. After being dropped by my original attorney, Rick gladly took my case and assured me I was in good hands. He came through in a major way. They were responsive and ultimately effective against what was the... most difficult insurance issue I have ever faced. Not only would I use them again but I will be referring anyone I know in need of services.

As an attorney Steve is as thorough as I have ever seen. He is honest and conducts his practice with an extremely high level of integrity. He is also a very caring person that truly beleives in each one of his clients that he or his firm represents.
