The Best

I enthusiastically endorse the services of Attorney Ginzberg. He came highly recommended and we quickly found out why. We engaged his services last minute for an inordinately complex and contentious trial. Attorney Ginzberg rose to the task. He rolled up his sleeves immediately and was up to speed li...terally overnight. He came to our home when it was difficult for us to meet elsewhere. He worked around the clock, pouring over and committing to memory hundreds if not thousands of pages of evidence. Attorney Ginzberg is an outstanding strategist and litigator. He had a vision and he did not falter. He fought tooth and nail in court throughout every minute of an extremely long and emotionally wrenching trial. We trusted our attorney every step of the way. Attorney Ginzberg was a man of his word. He was responsive, frank and forthcoming in all our dealings with him. He did not sugarcoat. He listened and his work reflected it. His expertise and his dedication to our case far exceeded any legal service we had experienced (or even heard of). The outcome was a 'slam dunk' victory. Finding and engaging Attorney Ginzberg was a blessing for our family that will thankfully resonate long into the future. Everyone that knows him or of him says the same thing we do: Attorney Ginzberg is the best.

After a biking accident in Sept of 2013 I asked Attorney Ginzberg is he would represent me after seeing his profile in Connecticut Magazine as a top lawyer. I am a 57 year old female and suffered an injury as a result of a motorist failing to yield to clear hand signals. Attorney Ginzberg has a no n...onsense approach, thorough and I was impressed with the level of detail he retained regarding my case. He reached out via e-mail / phone calls extending concern and often requested updates pertinent to my case. In fact, Attorney Ginzberg initiated 90% of the communication having never felt forgotten or ignored. Additionally, Attorney Ginzberg listens intently but also informs you in a no nonsense way when his questions are not answered in a way that is helpful to your case. He is not interested in emotional or speculative responses but quickly steers conversation back to case details - so he can professionally represent you and work on the mutual goal of a satisfactory settlement. I was satisfied with the way I was treated, my settlement and would hire him again.

The Best in the Business

Attorney Ginzberg was my attorney during a very difficult time in my life. I was the conservator of a person who was in a coma after being hit by a drunk driver. It was an extremely difficult case, but Attorney Ginzberg through his unbelievable legal knowledge and expertise, brought suit against 4 ...bars in which the defendant was drinking at prior to the accident. I never hear of the Dram Shop Act, in which you can sue the bars in which the defendant was a patron prior to the accident, but he knew of this and successfully won against the 4 bars. If it was not for his years of legal experience, his meticulous attention to detail, his dedication to his client, not backing down from any of the attorneys representing the bars, keeping me well informed of procedures and the legal system even in the most complex of litigation, he explained the process to me, and because of his determination and dedication to the case and me as conservator for the victim, the victim in this case would not be able to get the medical treatment he needs for the rest of his life as he is totally disabled. He is a true professional of his craft and I would recommend him to anyone who wants a hard working, and dedicated attorney to represent them.

An exceptional, professional attorney.

Jeff was wonderful helping me through a very complicated divorce. He put in long hours and was very caring every step of the way. I was married only two years, which made the divorce difficult. Jeff worked very hard to get me the best settlement, in a very timely manner. He kept me informed dur...ing each step until the very end. He is extremely knowledgable, supportive, and I felt comfortable and confidant in his expertise throughout the entire process. I would recommend Jeff to anyone who needs a great lawyer.

A master of divorce law

I would highly recommend Jeff to anyone involved in a complicated divorce with custody or relocation issues. Jeff shepherded me through an extremely difficult divorce years ago and then recently helped me keep custody of my children when I wanted to relocate for employment purposes. Jeff thoroughly e...xplains all of the legal issues involved in any case and is excellent at keeping his client appraised of the sometimes opaque and often lengthy process.
