LEVINE VS PENNSYLVANIA PROPERTY

AN AGREEMENT WAS BEING TORCED UPON ME. LEGAL ADVICE WAS GIVEN TO ME AND LEGAL ACTION WAS INITIATED BY RICHARD LIPSMAN ATTORNEY. THE MATTER WAS QUICKLY RESOLVED TO MY COMPLETE SATISFACTION

Posted by FRED | September 17, 2015 | Hired Attorney | Real Estate

Very Satisfied with this Attorney

We were the plaintiffs in a real estate litigation a few years back. Mr. Lipsman not only received a favorable settlement for us, but always acted in a professional and dedicated manner. He was thorough in explaining details and always answered our questions promptly. Mr. Lipsman was with us eve...ry step of the way in this litigation and we were very pleased with the settlement. We would highly recommend this lawyer to others.

Relationship: Co-worker

"Mr. Lipsman was my very first employer in the field of law. I had the privilege of working for him as an intern at his law firm. During my time at his firm I was able to see first hand how he interacted with his clients and what it takes to be a great attorney. He is very dedicated to his work. I learned so much by working for him and feel that I benefited tremendously by the knowledge I was able to take away from this job. Even to this day and being a practicing attorney for almost 10 years now, I still reach out to Richard to bounce ideas off of him, and to refer clients back and forth. I fully endorse him in all of his areas of practice."

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.
