I hired this firm to represent me and try to find puppy scammers who took money from me. Daniel Kohn represented me. I paid a $7,500 retainer on my credit card and was assured that it would only take a few hours of time to determine whether or not we would be able to bring case against the scammers. Then at that time I would get the rest of my retainer back if we couldn't bring case or ran into dead ends.

I received a bill from the firm saying that my retainer was almost gone and that I needed to add more money in for them to continue representing me.

They billed me for letter that they wrote that I instructed them not to after the DHS contactEd me and informed me that they were aware of my case and that I was one of many and that it was an international ring from Cameroon.

Once I received the bill I was shocked and gave Daniel a call to see what was going on. He basically said "oops" and told me he would fix the bill and have it resent to me. The firm will not respond to my written requests, and Daniel has now blown me off. Pawns me off on the office.

During the time where I was their client, everyone was nice but Pretty disorganized and didn't have good inter-company communication.

After I was no longer their client, the firm was not helpful, did not follow through, and has now taken $7500 from me and not returned my refund or sent me a proper bill. This has been going on for months. This firm is money hungry and has terrible customer service.

Arkady is awesome. I got myself in a legal trouble when someone rushed to save me from a bad mouth and I got somewhere in between. So it ended up with difficulties with law for everyone involved. Arkady and Marina were very caring and helpful. They were realistic and honest. The pricing was a little heavier than I wanted to see, but there is a price for everything. I maintained communication throughout my case. It was eventually tossed. The worry-free life is back! Thank you all for driving me out of this.

I was a little hesitant to leave a review, cause hiring a criminal defense attorney isn't something I want to shout online. BUT, Arkady did such a fantastic job with my issue that other help seekers should know that he is the right person.

I got into some legal issues and needed a criminal lawyer. My job, my career and my life were literally on the line. I called Arkady after a recommendation from my family and we met that same day. I told him the story and that I was scared to death to lose my job.

He listened to it, explained the best and worst case scenario. No promises made. Just asked me to kindly wait till he had a look at the police report before he can tell me what could be done. However, after a thorough examination of the report he told me it's totally different than the account I gave him. Arkady then lodged some motions with the court and we came to know that we were dealing with a "bad cop". That he's faked reports in the past. Arkady advised that the best way forward was to move to trial unless the case was dismissed asap. When the trial day came - rest assured, I was terrified! But guess what - the case was dismissed!

I might not be the best advisor but if you look for a talented criminal defense lawyer in New York who will fight and not settle your case, this is your man!
