Great Lawyer for Landlord Disputes

Mr. Wachtel did wonders for our case, he kept the landlord at arms lenghth and us in the building. A very powerful Attorney for these kind of matters, I would recommend him to anyone.

Gary did an outstanding job for us

Gary did an outstanding job for us in successfully litigating, winning, relentlessly pursuing, and collecting from a home improvement contractor who defrauded us performed shoddy work which required significant remediation. Over a five year period of time, Gary never gave up on our claim. He filed mo...tions in court and pursued the defendant with vigor. We would always go to Gary for our litigation needs and recommend him to our family and friends.

Great service, great outcome

Mr. Wachtel was professional and resolved my problem quickly. He understood exatly what to , didn't waste my time or money, and accomplished the goal without drama.

DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME..

I contacted Gary for advice on handling a mistake on my lease that my landlord is trying to profit from. Gary’s was very condescending way from the moment he answered the phone as if I was calling to ask him a personal favor rather than recommendation on handling a serious legal matter I was ready to... compensate him for. I barely got through my second sentence when he cut me off extremely abruptly stating “I’m too busy to handle your case.” Although I'm not looking to waste anyone's time or more importantly mine, there's an etiquette to follow that's very indicative of how attentive any attorney will be with regards to your case should you end up hiring him for his services. Unfortunately this gentleman does not believe in plain & simple courtesy and I think he'd not only waste your time but more than likely have a paralegal handle your case while still charging you his hourly rate.
