Excellent Securities and Investment Attorney

Mr. Zamansky is a professional, ethical, responsive, and knowledgeable attorney who helped navigate and mediate a successful outcome for my case. Highly recommend.

Posted by Jack | August 01, 2014 | Securities & Investment Fraud

An Attorney who you can count on to represent you in a securites claim

Jake represented me in a claim I had against my brokerage firm related to an investment in a failed hedge fund whereby I lost almost all of my investment. The matter was settled through a FINRA mediation in which I received a settlement in which I recouped not all but a significant portion of my inve...stment. I was quite pleased with the outcome and the way Jake handled the case. I have worked with quite a few attorneys in my lifetime a few of whom I would rate as excellent and many of whom were satisfactory. Jake is at the top of my list. He was very responsive to my questions, listened well and put an outstanding case together. He was easy to get a hold of and he made me feel very comfortable throughout the case. He is a real pro at doing this type of work and appeared to be well respected by the opposition. He was able to present my case in a very understandable and effective way. He did his homework and made good use of an outside expert and his partners and associates. I would not hesitate to recommend him to future clients. In fact prior to responding to this survey I did recommend him to a friend of mine with a similar type of case.

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. I have had many cases with Jake as opposing counsel and have found him to be highly capable and well respected by the defense bar. I have also tried a case as opposing counsel and have found him to be tough and an excellent trial attorney. He also conducts himself in the most professional manner. He is top notch!"

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I have worked with Jake on several matters for the last several years and have rarely if ever seen a lawyer so dedicated to his clients. He has a well-deserved reputation for holding securities fraudsters to account, but his genuine concern for and focus on the needs of his clients sets him apart."
