Excellent Attorney

Kevin is very detail oriented and always follows up. He is very thourogh and always makes sure to explain the plan of action in detail so I can make an informed decision. I highly recommend Kevin for all of your legal matters.

Not Just Another Lawyer

Mr. Abruzzese came to me highly recommended from a friend who hired Mr. Abruzzese to represent him in a personal injury matter and after consulting with Mr. Abruzzese about my landlord/tenant case I knew he was the right lawyer for me. He was very knowledgeable and gave me top quality legal represen...tation without drowning me in legal fees. It was nice to see a lawyer so involved in every aspect of my case and always punctual on court dates. With so many lawyers to choose from I felt the need to write this review to help make that decision easier for others.

Impossible to contact again...

You can never get this attorney on the phone. All you get is a recorded message. Spoke once to the attorney, and when I was ready to hire, all my phone messages were never answered, I called several times and was ignored. I even tried to contact him here with no response. It was just an L/T matter. N...eedless to say, this is unprofessional behavior. There's nothing worse than being unable to contact your attorney if you do retain one. My friend also needed an L/T attorney and I recommended him as his fees were reasonable and he seemed very competent when I did speak with him, but his office never contacted her either after leaving a message.

Replied last February 05, 2017

I was never hired by this individual and we never had an in person consultation. We spoke one time on the phone at which time she was not ready to hire a lawyer. When she called back weeks later I had taken on other cases in the interim and was no longer available to devote my full attention to her case which was explained to her the same day she called. While I am not obligated to call anyone who is not a client back, I always make it a priority to call anyone who leaves a message back whether they are a client or not within 24 hours. Further, while I appreciate the referral her friend was called back on the same day after 5:00 pm as requested and my call went unanswered.

GRATEFUL HE TOOK MY CASE

I found Kevin to be very diligent and passionate about his work. He proved to have a very strong work ethic and was always quick to respond to my numerous inquiries. My personal injury case had a unique set of facts which some big NYC firms I consulted would not touch but Kevin was up for the chall...enge and willing to take a risk by outlaying his own money because he knew I deserved to be compensated and he delivered. I am very grateful to him for taking my case.

VERY IMPRESSED

I was very impressed with this lawyer. He was very forthcoming with me from day one which was a breath of fresh air. His guidance helped me avoid making the decision to accept offers made by the defendant’s lawyers to settle my personal injury case which were well below my ultimate recovery. When ...you hire a lawyer to represent your interests you want to feel you can trust their advice 100% and I luckily found this lawyer who was able to instill that trust in me.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
