Great communication and service

Thank you very much to Arkadiy who helped me secure my dream property within only 9 weeks! Very professional, clear and concise with communications that were within a timely manner. Very grateful for the extra support provided as a first time buyer with a long list of questions.

Posted by Evelyn | August 11, 2022 | Hired Attorney | Employment & Labor

Beware!!!! Do not hire this man

My mother was an employee for decades at this company and there was an altercation by another employee against her. We sought Arkady’s assistance to represent her at a very small union trial, and we hired him based on his agreement to help assist her on that day. When that day came, he had his secr...etary write up and deliver a “brief” to us but he did not show!!! We were left with this brief which basically regurgitated everything I provided to him and we were left to fend for ourselves—-well my mother was completely alone. Also, the court LAUGHED at the brief, and wasn’t even admissible. We had a relative front $4500 on his credit card to help us pay for NOTHING. Please do NOT HIRE THIS MAN. One of the worse experiences of my life dealing with this individual.

Law guru!

Arkady Bukh has just proved he is not just a media guy, but is also a law guy! My 18 (b) lawyer - who is actually is just of the federal defenders - just wasted 3 months of my precious time ignoring my prison calls and being constantly late for court appearance. With Arkady, the first appearance was ...actually the last appearance, the case was tossed and dismissed. I can recommend these people to everyone coming through some grey days in their lives.

Posted by Emily | August 14, 2014 | Criminal Defense

Problem solver

Arkady is not a typical criminal lawyer from Brooklyn who enthusiastically collects the retainer check and disappears leaving you with a a junior associate or a paralegal. He was actually in court with me (did not miss the schedule) to fight the case. The prosecutor was very concerned when he found o...ut who my defender was. Eventually, I got a call from the office with the news that my case was downgraded to a very minor misdemeanor. Thank you, Ark!

Posted by Brittany | April 07, 2014 | White Collar Crime

True expert

This is one of the best (if not THE best) white collar crime lawyers in New York. He managed to dismiss my forgery case, and it never went to trial, nor it took an awful amount of time to complete. I've actually referred Arkady to my family members, friends, and just anybody who are in trouble with t...he law. After reading the negative reviews below, I decided to give my feedback in regards to Arkady's services. 1) Arkady never asks for a lot of cash upfront. On the contrary, he personally worked on my payment plan and made sure it was not too financially burdensome 2) Arkady is always ready for a court appearance, in fact he actually alerted me to get ready. Unlike many lawyers who just do not show up, he was there to take me to the judge during the morning session. 3) Arkady actually cares. Even after my case was over and no future payments at sight he would provide me with a complimentary consultation (I could even name it "do it yourself" kit) for my business venture. Using his professional advice, I could move ahead and file my company in accordance with all strict laws and regulations. I think that you should not make a mistake and trust your future to a second-class (let alone public) defender. Arkady Bukh is an amazing source for criminal defense should the circumstances require so.
