Top tier firm with exceptional, highly qualified attorneys

Cox Padmore Skolnik & Shakarchy is a top tier boutique firm. I’ve had a number of complex legal issues for which I needed the very best attorney to navigate and resolve. I have been working with Jack Shakarchy for close to two years now. He is a consummate professional. Considering the plethora of at...torneys in New York, it can be difficult to find a firm with the most qualified and well-credentialed attorneys. Jack was recommended to me by my tax attorney to disentangle me from a very bad situation in a real estate matter. After meeting with Jack I finally breathed a sigh of relief because I knew I was finally in excellent hands. As our professional relationship grew, I asked Jack to handle all my legal issues - both big and small. I was happy to be on retainer at a firm with top echelon attorneys: Jack never treated my matters as unworthy of his full attention. Jack and his colleagues are personally responsible for their clients. My calls and emails were always addressed promptly. One of the most impressive aspects of working with Jack is his unwavering excellent advice whereby he communicates his reasoning as well as the facts behind his strategies. I give my unreserved recommendation to both the firm of Cox Padmore Skolnik & Shakarchy and especially to Jack Shakarchy- a seasoned, intelligent, professional and a true gentleman.
