Incredibly Competent, Responsive and Caring

We were 7.5 months into a high-risk pregnancy and found ourselves facing an illegal eviction. The Superior Court Judge actually violated case law and granted the landlord an illegal Warrant for Possession. We contacted Chip the same day and he was reassuring and fully informed about what our next ste...ps should be. We scheduled a consultation and met with Fred Dunne, who had spoken to Chip, and he outlined the legal steps they would take. We were instantly comfortable in their hands and could tell they were motivated on both a legal and moral level. I had been litigated against my ex-husband and been through 6 lawyers. I was particularly impressed that both Chip and Fred were genuinely invested and outraged at the legal injustice. Chip took over and we went to the hearing where the Superior Court Judge maintained his illegal position. Chip cited case law that the adversary’s attorney was not even familiar with. He was meticulous and also made sure he got everything “on the record” as we knew we would have to appeal, given the high-risk nature of my pregnancy. Throughout the entire process, including the appeal, Chip was attentive and extremely responsive when questions arose. Chip prepared an impeccable brief for the appellate division and they overturned the Superior Court’s improper ruling within 24 hours. After retaining half a dozen lawyers and consulting with at least another half dozen over the divorce litigation, I can honestly say that Chip is one of a kind. This is the first review I have ever written and I am happy to be able to do it. If you have lost faith in lawyers like I had, Dunne, Dunne and Cohen will definitely restore it. They are highly competent, attentive and they CARE.

DUI

Handled my case extremely professional. He was always available to me for any questions or concerns I might of had regarding my case over the phone or email. He was able to lower my DUI in just the first court appearance. Took a huge burden off my back. I would totally recommend his services.

EMPATHETIC, CONSIDERATE, AND EFFECTIVE

I recently collected off a case with Chip Dunne. I went straight to him after getting in a terrible car accident and front end collision. I had to do little to nothing as everything was taken care of through this law office. Any questions I had were answered easily through email, phone or even tex...t. I was paired up with doctors that took PIP and did not demand any money out of pocket. Overall a tragedy was turned into an organized stress free pay out. I highly recommend this Agency for all your legal needs. Car accident, family court, divorce, anything.
