Born to be a Lawyer

For Tomek it all comes naturally, as if he was born to be a Lawyer. Thankfully the destiny has brought such a great professional for NY clients. Tomek has an outstanding sense of responsibility to deal with a case and manage it until the end with every effort. He is very empathetic and tireless and b...uilds up very detailed analysis with his clients. I think the most important part is that he does this job from his heart and helps people who would otherwise lack such a great representation.

Tomek is the best lawyer

Tomasz Jerzy Piotrowski represented me in a discrimination lawsuit. Boy, was he ever the best. He fought for me like a tiger and was able to secure a SJ in my favor. Kudos for this young man for his courage and effort in a difficult case (Adam Wiercinski v Mangia57). You won't find a better represent...ation in matters such as mine.

Professional and reliable lawyer

Tomasz Piotrowski represented me in a case involving sexual harassment by my previous employer. I am a young woman, so this situation was very stressful for me. Before I got Tomasz’s contact information, I called many other lawyers in New York. All of them wanted a lot of money—which I did not have...—even only for an initial consultation. They also specifically told me they could not guarantee anything. Tomasz helped me in this difficult situation and did not even take one cent from me. Also, because of my immigration status I had to leave the USA. But Tomasz never gave up and did not close my case. Tomasz continued with my case in New York and was in constant contact with me. He provided me with all the information from the court on ongoing basis. I could always trust him. We talked a lot, and he went over all the details of my testimony with me many times. He was always involved, until the case ended in a favorable settlement for me. I highly recommend Tomasz Piotrowski.

Family Man with a Plan

Tomasz was a mutual friend of myself and his girlfriend. I was introduced due to a voiced situation I had with a consultancy I worked for and was fired from without pay. Tomasz took me through every step of the legal process to explain what my options were, what I should expect moving forward should ...I choose to pursue a case against my ex employer, and only agreed to charge me should we win. After back and forth emailing, calls on the phone, he successfully led a case to completion.

Simply outstanding

I had the pleasure of doing a consultation with Mr. Piotrowski and he really went above and beyond to assist me. He was very thorough in explaining what options I had available to me and what my rights where as a employee. It was a very difficult situation that i had found myself in with my previous... employer and with Mr. Piotrowskis' help, the issue was able to be resolved. He is very personable and professional which makes all the difference. I am truly grateful for all the help he has given me and would honestly give him more than five stars if I could.
