Francelina Maria Perdomo-Klukosky

My friend and I invested in a restaurant back in 2012. After we made our investment, our 3rd partner refused to pay us our portion of the restaurant earnings or return our investment. We hired Ms. Perdomo to file an action and because of her work we were able to recover. She was kind, patient and wo...rked very hard to help us. We are both very happy with the results and highly recommend her services and firm. Extremely happy with the results!

I reached out to Fran seeking representation for filing a suit in a contract/IP dispute, and am extremely happy with the representation I've received for the past 10 months. From the very beginning, she was careful to walk me through my options and set expectations of budget and timelines. She has be...en excellent at checking in and communicating at every stage, and exploring all angles to present the strongest possible case. She's definitely gone above and beyond to accommodate my needs, and I can tell she genuinely cares about the outcome of the case.

Francelina has been my attorney since 2014. She assisted me in a litigation involving my husband’s ownership interests in a corporation. After my husband’s passing, we had to file an action against the remaining members. I am extremely happy with Fran’s work, her ethics and dedication to her clients.... She’s been there for me since day one, always answering my questions and explaining to me every detail of my case. I highly recommend her.

I retained Fran as my attorney because I was a victim of fraud and had lost $60k in a ponzi scheme. Fran had pursued a TRO to obtain some sort of restraining order on the culprit's accounts, which sounds great, but not so much when her own private investigator reported that the culprit had no assets.... She is like an in-app purchase where every $5000 she would ask for more to move on to the next step of the legal process. I have emails begging, demanding, cajoling her to explain the legal process, to be clear about what our objectives are and what she was trying to achieve for me, only to find out from a second opinion that it's near impossible to get any money back from a dead beat. I spent over $20k on her and never once did she mention anything about getting any sort of judgment which is what I pushed for thanks to again, a second opinion. She became very defensive and unprofessional, especially when she realized I had another lawyer providing more practical and less expensive solutions. I am still to this day unsure whether she was deliberately being unclear or purposefully confusing about the legal process. What made things worse is she became condescending with the way she treated me. Fran claims she is a partner, but neither her communication skills, her legal advice, nor her treatment of a client justifies her "partner rate" of $300/hr. She can counter all she wants with technicalities on this review like she did arguing with me, her client. But I will warn you, you will spend money and not know what it is your trying to achieve and how much more you will need to spend to get there because she was so poor at communicating her strategy and condescending when you didnt get it. You will be throwing money in a black hole. I'm in finance and not law Fran so it would have been nice for you to at least act like a partner and make it seem like I'm getting my money's worth but you made me feel like I was conned all over again. Please feel free to refute this as you did trhoughout my case, but I'm happy to share my emails with anyone who is thinking about retaining her as I have plenty to back up my claims about her treatment and my consistent requests for clarification on what we were trying to achieve. You will be stunned by her responses.

I was engaged with Francelina M. Perdomo's firm as a client for over a month - she herself was my attorney. The firm solicited a retainer of USD 3500 from me in the case of appalling non-performance from a New York based publisher Apress, promising me legal action as well as damages. A month later, t...hey stated no damages were admissible. I asked the firm for a mere termination of publication. Madam Perdomo responded that was not possible/feasible and proffered her opinion that she considered me mentally deranged ! During the one month of engagement, neither she nor the associate assigned to work on my case asked me even a single question related to the case. The associate (Antoneta Tarpanova) never even emailed me or called me. I did, of my own volition, proffer high-quality documentation (~ 15 pages). At the end of the engagement, the firm sent me a bill of USD 4700 for reading those 15 pages (and doing nothing else whatever !)
