Tim parker, Attorney at Law

I hired Mr. Rosenzweig to represent me and my law firm in an appeal of a commercial litigation case brought against us in the New York Supreme Court, County of Richmond that was appealed to the Second Department. He was very nice and informative. Most of all we won our appeal. The decision resulting... in a total victory for me and my law firm. I give Richard Rosenzweig my strongest endorsement as an appellate lawyer.

What a mistake....

Richard Rosenzweig is an ill mannered attorney and treats his clients like a money bag. The paperwork he prepared for me was poorly written and had so many spelling errors that I felt embarrassed for him. I wonder if he ever went to law school. I don't recommend hiring Mr Rosenzweig if you are seeki...ng a professional attorney. Don't waste your hard earned money on this joke of an attorney. He doesn't take his work seriously and has a very bad attitude towards his clients maybe he is angry because he is so incompetent!

Nasty lawyer

All his five star reviews are bogus! This nasty lawyer has such a filthy mouth. He told me to shut up when I asked him some basic questions after paying him a steep retainer. He was super nice before he got the money and then turned super nasty when the payment was made. He falsifies business documen...ts and should have his license revoked. Steer clear of this con artist! He will drag you down and strip you of every penny

Mr. Richard A. Rosenzweig, Esq is the attorney I definitely recommend.

Mr. Richard A. Rosenzweig, Esq. came highly recommended and I know why. The legal counsel provided by Mr. Rosenzweig has been nothing but exceptional. Always very thorough with gathering information essential to my case, Mr. Rosenzweig has always provided clear explanations of what the next l...egal steps would be. Consequently, he made sure that there was a clear understanding of all the details prior to any legal actions taking place on my behalf. Additionally, he is very straight forward with his legal advice and would advise on both the positives and negatives of the legal actions that I could choose to pursue. With my confidence in his recommendations and with his knowledge of both the legal system and issues, Mr. Richard A. Rosenzweig is the attorney I definitely recommend. Respectfully submitted.

Commercial Real Estate Litigation

Richard was very informative, thorough and fair. His approach was always efficient, whether handling the communication with the opposing party, or myself. In this circumstance, he was able to retrieve the majority of my money back. I recommend him 100%.
