A knowledgable attorney, a caring counselor

Mr. Borzouye is a kind and understanding man who went above and beyond for me when helping me with my legal matter. I found him to be very knowledgable in the area of law that my case pertained to and he was very flexible in terms of being able to be reached day or night, he met me where it was conv...ienent for me, even if it wasn't in his usual office. In addition to his office in Brooklyn he has other satellite offices he was able to meet me in which is closer to my home. Most importantly he was very fair with his retainer agreement and let me make payments in installments which was very much appreciated. I always felt that Mr. Borzouye genuinely cared about me and my case and did his best to get the results we wanted. He is also easily reached, and although he can get busy he always returned my calls. I was cautious to hire an attorney who had been disciplined but Mr. Borzouye came highly recommended and when he explained why he was disciplined it really turned out not to affect my case or my impression of his capabilities. You will not regret hiring Mr. Borzouye, he is truly a smart and caring individual.

No need to look any further!

I would recommend Richard Borzouye with out a question! From day one he has been nothing but supportive and helpful. He always answers the phone unless he is in court. Mr. Borzouye always makes himself available to you like you are family. He has taken numerous hours out of his day to speak with me a...bout my case and explain every little detail. You can tell how much he cares because he never stops communication. He texts me every so often just to see how I'm doing. With all this being said he is a great lawyer and he has great pull with the people above. He was able to set up a meeting with the ADA with out even blinking an eye. Mr. Borzouye will do anything he can to help, and his fee is competitive and lower then most attorneys i met with.
