James DeCristofaro, Medical malpractice Attorney on Jan 26, 2018
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community
Andrew is a highly skilled attorney and advocate. He knows the legal system very well, on both the federal and state levels. He is the attorney I call when I have clients who have medical malpractice and other types of negligence claims for personal injuries. I highly recommend him.
Andrew is a skilled attorney who has earned the respect of judges throughout the New York court system. I have always found him to be well prepared and ready to go the extra mile for his clients. I highly recommend seeking his representation.

Andrew Buzin is an outstanding attorney and a strong advocate for his clients who doesn't back down. Andrew has the rare combination of being a fearless fighter for his clients' rights with a law professor's knowledge of the law and medicine. I endorse Andrew unequivocally.
Michael Gunzburg, Personal injury Attorney on Apr 2, 2015
Relationship: Worked together on matter
I have known Andrew for several years and worked on several matters with him. He takes his cases seriously, and prepares them well for litigation and trial. He also has a good success rate in prosecuting his cases, and seems to always come out on top. I think the reason is that he over prepares his cases with the expectation that they will go to trial, only to find that they end up settling. Andrew also enjoys dealing and conversing with his clients, and getting satisfaction from their success. I would endorse him as your attorney.
John O'Brien, Medical malpractice Attorney on Oct 2, 2014

An extremely talented and well respected attorney in the legal community, I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone looking for a lawyer who knows the law and truly cares about protecting the rights of his clients and getting them the most favorable result possible.

Andrew's legal acumen and conscientiousness has greatly served his clients since his admission to the bar. He has also been a helpful colleague and friend. I whole-heartedly endorse this attorney.

I endorse this lawyer's work.
Robert Jackson, Litigation Attorney on Jul 15, 2010
Relationship: Worked together on matter
Mr. Buzin is an outstanding, thoughtful lawyer with a rare combination of client management skills and litigation talent. As to his clients, he is incredibly responsive; he gives the impression that every case is his only case. He's thoughtful and sensitive about the very personal matters his clients often bring to him. And, though he is not shy about giving advice, he realizes that the decision, in the end, belongs to the client. As to litigation, it's rare to find a lawyer who is so good with clients who is also this smart. I consulted with Mr. Buzin on a recent appeal to the Second Circuit, which he won so convincingly that the judges took the time to write an opinion explaining why. As the opinion shows, he won the case by knowing the trial record cold--which shows the incredible attention he gives to each and every matter. I strongly endorse Mr. Buzin and his excellent work, and he has my highest recommendation for anyone in need of litigation counsel.
