Five Star Attorney!!

Our experience with Colin was nothing short of fantastic! He is an honest, hardworking, knowledgeable attorney that was able to get our case resolved timely and efficiently keeping us informed at every step of the process. He was able to settle our dispute given his vast knowledge, experience, and ...expertise with Construction law. He is able to see the big picture bringing insight and tenacity to the table working tirelessly for a resolution. We highly recommend Colin. He is an expert in this field and will not disappoint!!

The best to work with

Colin since the beginning was both knowledgeable and courteous. He understood where I was coming from with my case and before wanted to consider all options. He was transparent and notified me along the way as my case went on on what our next step should be and what recourse there would be. He made h...iring him very easy and my case even better. He was not only a joy to work with but in the end id see him more as a person I can count on when in need of an attorney. But a strong attorney at that. He doesn't allow for mistakes and spearheads each situation carefully with a positive result. It was a pleasure working with him.

Hard Working Honest Lawyer

Colin did a great job with my case. I would definitely use him again. Very hard working and will fight all the way to end for you. Very good communication skills with his clients, spends the time to clarify details.

Construction Law

Colin was great! I had hired certain contractors to refinish my floors, who ended up destroying my floors completely. I initially consulted with Colin. He was very responsive and told me what I could expect should I decide to sue the contractors and their insurance provider. We decided to go ahead wi...th the case, and he handled it very professionally. Sure enough things transpired just as he expected. Great experience all round, couldn’t be more happy with result!

Great attorney highly recommended Pennsylvania and Jersey

We hired Colin to go after money that was owed to us from a customer refusing to make second and final payment. Being from Pennsylvania we never worked in Jersey before so we were not familiar with their guidelines for legal contracts, so this was a difficult case from the start. Colin was extremely ...professional and explained everything so my husband and I knew exactly what was going on at every point in the lawsuit. He's extremely knowledgeable and I would recommend him to anyone in a situation with an unruly, uncommunicative customer. Hopefully we never have to go through this again but if we do Colin will be the first phone call we make.
