"I have been an associate attorney in Ira Newman's firm for the better part of the past five years, and I am very proud to endorse Mr. Newman and to be a part of his organization. The client is central to the practice of this firm, and Mr. Newman does not rest until he has done all he can to protect the clients' legal rights and options. I have never seen such dedication.

"Mr. Newman and I have co- lawyered a number of legal matters. I have found him to be extremely sophisticated both in his knowledge of many areas of law, his advocacy skills and his persistence in procuring the best possible outcome for clients. In fact, his reputation had preceded him before I was introduced to him. He is a very skilled practitioner who is decisive, very client conscious by way of explaining to them their various options and alternatives, and answering fully and candidly their questions and concerns. He will not hesitate to advise potential clients whether, in his professional opinion, they have a strong or weak case or somewhere in between and then proceed to analyze for them the reasons so they can make informed decisions. It is a privilege to be able to endorse Mr. Newman."

I worked for Mr. Newman as an associate for a number of years, so this endorsement comes from first-hand experience. Mr. Newman always encourages his associates to leave no stone unturned when working on a client's matter, and this approach speaks volumes to the way the firm practices law. Mr. Newman looks at the client's problem from every possible angle; with his in-depth knowledge base, he is able to rigorously analyze the problem and come up with creative ways to achieve the desired result. Mr. Newman also makes sure that each client matter – from complex federal litigation, to the preparation of a will – is given the firm’s full attention and resources. I fully endorse Mr. Newman's work."

"Mr. Newman's office has been a long-time client of our litigation services firm. For many years, he had given us various pleadings, motions, subpoenas, and other legal documents for filing, submission or other handling. Having worked with many attorneys and law firms on Long Island and in New York City, I can honestly state that the quality of the documents prepared by Ira Newman's firm is exceptionally professional and better prepared than many of the documents submitted by some of the largest "prestige" firms located in New York City. His attention to detail as to both form and content is beyond what I usually see from other law firms, and he consistently follows up to confirm that his matters have been handled on a timely and accurate basis."

"I have an insider's perspective on Mr. Newman's firm, having worked there as an associate attorney at one point. Client matters are taken very seriously here, and while the firm is small, they hold their own in litigation against some of the largest and most prestigious law firms in the NYC area. Mr. Newman is a legal scholar and an aggressive advocate for his clients. Associate attorneys are selected very carefully for their analytical intelligence and the ability to "think outside the box." Overall, I believe that this firm practices at a much higher level than its small size and suburban location would lead one to believe. The firm aggressively and creatively litigates on behalf of all of its clients and is consistently successful. I would recommend and endorse this firm for a wide range of business and personal legal matters"
