Outstanding professional

I have engaged the services of Mr. Feintuch over the past 25 years. He has represented me regarding person legal affairs as well as numerous business matters. I have always been more than satisfied with his services. He has always been totally committed to the various and numerous problems that I ...have brought to his office. His staff is courteous and professional. I recommend him without any reservation.

Taking advantage of the disabled

i hired Mr. Feintuch in 2012 after my sister, who is disabled, suffered a fall and knee damage. Mr. Feintuch placed a minion named Donald Moran to handle my sister's case who in turn was making decisions on HIS behalf and NOT contacting us on the progress of her case. I decided to call after 4 years ...Mr. Feintuch states, " i thought this case was settled already?" i told him where is my sister's settlement? he says, "i'll call you back?" he then calls me back and states," her money is caught up in the court". This pathetic excuse of an attorney already settled , got paid and tossed it to the court!!! Avoid this firm completely!!!!

STAY AWAY

I hired this attorney in 2014 for an illegal eviction faced by my landlord at the time living in an illegal apt which unaware of moving from south to new jersey that i paid my landlord prepaid rent for 6 months to stay in. This lawyer fee was $1000. The law states if living in an illegal apt the land...lord must give back 6 months worth of rent to relocate so I was willing to fight it in court with the truth for my money back not knowing at the time i was rented an illegal apt from a slumlord. This lawyer didn't even go to my court date; sent a first time law student not familiar with my case to court the very next day for an emergency court date and was still forced to move out even with the fire Marshall in court as my witness to give the judge the inspection reports and their findings. This lawyer did not present none of my evidence. Mr. Feintuch wrote one motion on my behalf with many typos I caught and had to ask him to redraft to be professional with the court. $1000 to still get evicted the very next day is a waste of money and time; rude staff. My money could have gone somewhere else for this outcome less than 24 hours later. STAY AWAY better professional lawyers that care about their clients than just money!

Poor advice

In my case, Mr. Feintuch did not recommend a competency trial when one was warranted. He also appeared to be supporting the other side's argument. At one point I had to clarify where he stood. During trial he came to me and said, "I don't know what else to say" when he was making his argument. ...Clearly he was not prepared. I would not recommend him.

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2001.

Reprimanded issued in NJ, 2001

updated on 12/11/2014

This means the attorney did something wrong, but the Bar did not suspend the lawyer. Typically in this case the lawyer's poor behavior is exposed to the public in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.
