An excellent, very versatile litigator

I hired Attorney Suri for a labor law dispute involving my small construction business, and subsequently for various other matters. He is an outstanding, highly intelligent lawyer who really knows the law. True, his communication habits might not be the best but that was a small price to pay for exce...llent, and reasonably priced legal advice and representation. I recommend Mr. Suri to all small business owners and individuals that have any litigation need in NYC and around.

DO NOT HIRE.

We hired Vivek S. Suri 5/2016. Mr. Suri was recommended to us from another lawyer because he was "Specialized in trademarks and patents". His fee was paid upfront. It is now 3/2018. After 20 + emails and phone calls within 2 year span. He has failed to get anything done for us. You can never reach hi...m at his office. He never return calls. What kind of business are you running? I have taken necessary action against him and filed a complaint with the Department Disciplinary committee supreme Court. DO NOT HIRE. REPEAT DO NO HIRE. Take you business elsewhere!!

Don't waste your time with this one.

Communication is none existent with Vivek. We filed for a trade mark and he is MIA year round. I get it, you're "busy". Sure, get back to me in a day or two. No, Vivek will not get back to you at all. Please avoid this lawyer at all costs.

DO NOT HIRE

This lawyer will constantly avoid phone calls, messages left in his office, emails or pleas to talk within a 1-2 day period. At first I thought he must be busy with other cases but time after time this lawyer has failed to reach out to me, if it wasn't for my constant almost harassment to talk to him... I would not hear from him for months. I honestly strongly advise you to seek representation from another attorney I can almost guarantee you will be disappointed as the case moves forward. What you must keep in mind is that someone has to be very dissapointed with Mr.Suri to leave such horrible reviews, a lawyer who doesn't have the best interest in one of his clients will repeat the same actions to new clients.

Professional and responsive

Mr. Suri is an excellent attorney. He answered all my questions and was very responsive. He is extremely professional and courteous and his rates are very reasonable. I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs an attorney who is experienced in all types of litigation.

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.
