SNAP FRAUD INVESTIGATION

The firm represented my retail shop with the USDA in reference to a fraud (trafficking) investigation. I hired them after I already answered the USDA letter and was disqualified. This was for a full agency review. I hired a local law firm who in CA who helped me but they did not have a good grasp on ...the statute and the individual laws that are required to be proven in order to keep EBT. The Spodek firm helped me every step of the way and we were able to submit a very well done in depth response to the allegations. Everything was available online 24/7 and enjoyed working with the team. I am waiting on the decision but I understand it can take months. I have dealt with a number of lawyers before and everyone here seemed to really care to help me every step of the way. I will update my review once the decision comes back but I am very pleased.

Do yourself a favor and hire Spodek Law Group!

There's a monumental difference between good and bad representation. Spodek Law is the definition of GOOD REPRESENTATION. I sought out a lawyer for a complicated divorce as I was not married in the US and my ex-husband was not a citizen and did not reside in the US. The attorney I had was a nightm...are; made a horrible situation worse with her attitude, poor communication and unprofessionalism. After a year and a half of sheer frustration, I ran the best Google search of my life. A search for a free consultation led me to Todd, and that led me to Danielle and everything changed! Todd reached out to me the same day I requested a consultation. By that night he introduced me to Danielle, who set me up in their online portal, and my the time I woke up, paperwork had been executed and filed. Here I am, a few short months later, divorced and free! Danielle is an A+ superstar! She is extremely fast with her responses, she always called when it was necessary and even though I am sure I bugged her with my overly analytical questions, she never got frustrated. She was a support and reassurance during a stressful, sad, difficult time in anyone's life. Her communication level, follow ups, knowledge, is far beyond amazing. The access to an online portal where we can have logged communication, I can view documents, track the progress of my case is completely necessary in the modern world; they are the right firm for people who are interested in the highest level of service. My life and my case would have been completely different had I gone through this entire process with Spodek. Their pricing is extremely reasonable and fair; AND WORTH EVERY PENNY. What I paid for a horrible attorney is what I would have paid for a buttoned up, knowledgeable, kind, fair and professional representation through Spodek. Do your research when searching for the right representation, it makes all the difference in the world and start at Spodek - as someone who went through the worst attorney and the finished with the best, save yourself the hassle; they are amazing and will make your life better!! First class firm all the way!

HRA Food stamp & Medicaid Fraud

Todd and his paralegal Alex and assistant Shantel are the best team I have ever come across. I came to Todd on May 21, 2017 on a Sunday morning ready to have a stroke, because I was being investigated by HRA fraud department. At this time I had received the target letter on May 19, 2017 from them say...ing I was being investigated for food stamp and Medicaid fraud. This was the scariest situation I have ever found myself in. The firm has a team that handles Medicaid and food stamp fraud investigations in NYC. I went to the Downtown Brooklyn office and met with Todd from the time I saw him and the way he greeted me and my spouse we knew that we were in good hands. He gave us such a warm welcoming feeling we felt very comfortable as if we knew each other for years. I started to explain my situation and he saw the fear I had and he instantly told me what my outcome would be and promise me I would be fine. He said it to me and my spouse as honest and straightforward as he can be. He then started to pull up all active cases in his system and showed me and my husband how very small percentage of people who receive target letters from HRA actually get prosecuted. After hearing this I and my spouse decided to hire him no questions asked. Once hired they immediately canceled the scheduled meeting with the investigator and faxes over a letter of representation, next a claim detail report was uploaded to their online client portal system. I uploaded my tax returns, paystubs, mortgage statement, Marriage certificate and all other documents that were requested at the time. I must say Shantal is an AMAZING woman I basically dealt with her when i was not able to get in touch with Todd because he was always in court. She answered whenever I called, unless she was in court herself or in the HRA building. She also communicated by text if she was in court or with HRA to let you know she will call you in a few. I am so happy to have made the right choice. Spodek and his team are the best in the city for Food Stamp and welfare fraud investigations. Today I received the call from Alex he is the best I may say and he said to me good news both cases are settle wow I was in shock and amazed how the outcome turned out I could not ask for better results thank you guys for helping me through this rough time and most of all for clearing my name as well, Words cannot explain the feeling and relief that I’m feeling at this moment. I just want to say thank you for all your support and for making this a dream come true, I highly recommend Todd Spodek and his team for any criminal cases you may have they are the best and at the end they get you the best results.

Best lawyer and law firm

I was in search for a criminal lawyer due to my 16 yr old (at the time) daughter getting in trouble for stealing at one of the Macy's store. I really didn't know what to do and started to do some search online and found Spodek law firm in yelp and after leaving a message, I was contacted immediately ...by Todd. He gave this reassurance that everything was going to be ok. He scheduled me and my daughter to come in and gathered all required information and he took care of the rest. We hired Todd to represent my daughter in court. Todd helped us to get the case expunged which was the goal from the time we spoke over the phone. I was afraid that my daughter who had never been in trouble before get her life ruined for a one time poor descision making. I thank God for allowing us to find Spodek law firm and had us work with Todd. Todd is really amazing and really down to earth. I totally recommend him.

Great Person, Responsible Lawyer.

Todd is a empathetic and compassionate advocate with a really funny sense of humor. I think the reason a lot of clients are drawn to his firm, is that he has the unique ability to ease client's fears by explaining all of the details of the process, and avoiding surprises. The weekly meetings take a l...ot of the pressure off. The support staff is there for the clients and this makes all of the difference in an unfortunate situation. However, you will find that it is not easy to get a hold of him during the day as he is often in court, this was incredibly frustrating once we started representation but once I scheduled calls it became much easier and I understand why as once you are in court you have no idea when it will end. Let me not kid you, this is not fun. Lawyers are not fun. Courts are not fun. However, if you find the right lawyer/paralegals it will make all the difference. I was asked to write a review about my experience and I am happy to do so.
