Breach of a Business Contract

Our company was extremely represented well by Mr. David Azrin, attorney at law. He was very professional in every way. We appreciated his willingness to research our claim and familiarize himself with our unique company. We also appreciated David Azrin's time and effort that he put into our clai...m this past year for our company. He took our case seriously. He got to know us and gave his expert advise. David was very diligent about our matter and committed himself to being involved in our case. Mr. David Azrin pulled all the strings needed to help settle our case in a timely matter. He wrote a strong Demand letter to the other party concerning non- payment of a business contract. Mr. Azrin also suggested a mediation with an Honorable retired judge, which we proceeded with. After both parties agreed on a settlement, Mr. Azrin volunteered to write a Binding Term and the final Bill of Sale with clear terms. Without Mr. Azrin's help we believe that our company would have lost tens of thousands of dollars from a breached business contract. Our company was satisfied with Mr. Azrin's professionalism and his excellent service. If you are searching for a dedicated attorney, then contact Mr. David Azrin. He has a servant's heart and is ready to help resolve your problem. Mr. Azrin is part of the reason why his law firm is in the top 5% of New York's Super Lawyers. Mr. David Azrin will not let your business down. What he did for us, he can do for you. Sincerely, Cynthia

Client Review

David Azrin was knowledgeable, accessible and dedicated. He is honest and when my problem was out of his area of specialization, he found another equally excellent and aboveboard lawyer to help me. Mr. Azrin did such a remarkable job that I have recommended him to other friends in need of legal advic...e. He is a gift to his profession. He was such a talented and powerful advocate that, only hours after presenting the case, the other party capitulated. I am glad to have met David Azrin.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
