National Sales

I met with Douglas Lipsky and knew immediately that he would take care of me. He and his team did everything they promised they would . It was during a difficult time for everyone in New York ,with Covid 19 ,but he went above and beyond my expectations. I highly recommend this firm.

Who you gonna call? Doug Lipsky!!

In all seriousness, Doug helped me out when I had an issue with my former employer. Admittedly I asked alot of him and he took care of me. He stayed on top of my situation and went above and beyond. I appreciated the degree of style and dignity he had with this difficult situation I was going thr...ough. When I approached other lawyers about my ordeal they said NO and brushed me off. Doug took me on and he got results. To that I am grateful!

In a league of his own

Mr Lipsky is in a class of his own, I would strongly recommend him to anyone who has been cheated or taken advantage of by an employer past or current. He handled problems I had and from day one he assured me that if he decided to take my case it was because he knew I had been wronged and he knew he ...would he would score a victory for me, he never asked for a penny during the whole process, he did make me aware that once he won my case he would be compensated from my settlement. Throughout the whole process he made me feel safe, and confident that I would prevail. Always kept me informed of any updates and even at times where I became impatient he calmed me down. If you don’t want to believe me, just google him that’s what I did and couldn’t believe the results I found.
