So sorry we hired them!

This lawyer and her staff were hired to represent my father after he was hit and left permanently injured by a car. It was a clear cut case and the insurance paid out the minimal amount the policy had on it and they were quick to pocket the money. almost year later we have not seen any of the money.... This law office led us to believe they were representing us in this matter, but have not. as a result the elderly injured man had to pay back out of his own money what Medicare thought he owed and the department of treasury started taking money out of his social security. All that because of Asher and Assoc.were not following up on the letters we were forwarding to them for A YEAR! and not following the required procedures of reporting their fees and costs to Medicare, aND not representing or advising us to the hospital and the doctors when the bills were sent to Medicare instead of the no fault carrier, resulting in the debt. Upon their advice we were sending them all the medical bills and trusting them to act on them or advise us what to do. They were inefficient at best. After all the calls and messages to Ms Asher go Unanswered, our bills keep mounting and we see none of the settlement money the law offices of ASHER & Assoc.received almost a year ago we wonder if they ever planned to do anything more but pocket the money and ignore the client.

CRIMINAL FIRM - DO NOT TRUST - Robera Asher and the Asher Law Firm

My brother Steven B. suffered near-death injuries as a result of Medical Malpractice. Background: Steven required surgery at some point for a relatively small issue. Some months thereafter he suffered multiple severe infections requiring several hospitalizations. Upon further diagnostic investi...gation, medical professionals discovered a surgical instrument that was not removed before closing the surgical wound and therefore leaving a rogue surgical instrument sitting in his chest routinely causing sepsis as a result of chronic infections. This was clear case of Medical Malpractice. Asher Law was retained. Fast forwarding 10+ years later, currently Steven has not received his settlement. Roberta Asher, Steven's Lawyer and the firms Principal attorney did not provide Steven any periodical updates of his case. 5+ years ago we started asking questions and submitting requests for information. Our attempts at soliciting responses were met with outright lies, the run-around, and ultimately zero returned calls and no responses to our requests. When we were able to reach one of the lawyers they made promises and never---not one time---kept ANY of there promises. They were just saying things to get us of their back. We have contacted the New York Bar and there is an active investigation currently ongoing. We suspect that the money was embezzled by the firm's principals. Once we contacted the bar, Mrs. Asher contacted us and wanted to work with us so that we would not pursue the Bar investigation. We declined. This lady has been rude and condescending. She lies and her staff lies for her. DO NOT TRUST ASHER LAW AND IT'S PRINCIPAL ROBERTA DORF ASHER. THEY ARE CRIMINALS BY DEFINITION. AND THE BAR ASSOCIATION WILL PROVE THAT THERE HAS BEEN CRIMINAL ACTIONS SUPPORTED BY CRIMINAL INTENT.
