legal review

My case was against the MTA, which I am sure was very difficult, but Mr. Krimsky went above and beyond his best. After 4 1/2 years it finally settled in our favor.

This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

very honest and kind

Mr. Krimsky told us right away what he could and couldn't do for us and delivered exactly as promised. No monkey business, no false promises. A prominent lawyer with far more years of experience than him told us our case had no chance of winning, but Mr. Krimsky found the right law to support our ca...se and obtained a fair settlement for us.

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.
