There's NO way I can hire this attorney

Let me tell you why I rated him 2 on a scale of 5. He rushed me. I just spoke to him 5 min ago. I wasn't even allowed to ask 2 questions. All he said was: $750 to start. $1500 later. I got to go now. He hung up. That was it. $1500 for what? Explain to me. How can I trust you if you already treated m...e like this? Even the girl who answered the phone was very rude. There is no way I can hire him. No respect.

A Fantastic Lawyer

I've recently hired Robert Rosenblatt to represent me in a landlord-tenant eviction case in Redhook, Brooklyn. I was the tenant and was losing my case, which was handled by a different attorney, when I decided to get a second opinion and consult (for free!) with Robert. He was knowledgeable, prof...essional, highly detailed, accessible and his rates/fees are reasonable! He clearly explained my options and gave me the information I needed to make informed decisions...a vastly different experience, compared to that of the other attorney. I hired Robert on the spot! Not only did he stop the eviction, he negotiated a substantial financial settlement, in my favor. I couldn't be happier! Folks, Robert is the real deal. Call him...you will be happy you did.

The Best Ever!!!!!!!!

Though I'm currently in litigation, I had to write this review. Mr Rosenblatt and his team are nothing short of God sent. He answers emails after work hours, he is very easy to talk to. I don't have to take anytime off of work to go to court,he counter sued on my behalf, along with seeking Monetary ...damages. His fees are low and affordable. He is very knowledgeable. Don't be alarmed if you give him a lot of background on your case and he is silent, this man I believe has seen it all in the courtroom especially as it relates to these horrible landlords. I would definitely recommend his services. Big Time Lawyer for Small Time price, thus far I'm impressed and humbled.

Be careful on thouse reviews!

As a landlord I did not find them very professional and helpful. It seemed like they were working for my tenant. All they want to make a deal with my tenants (instead of going for trial)which was cost me 3 months unpaid rent plus their fees. it was very simple holdover case. I was misled by all ...this great reviews.

I find it very strange that we have over 30 excellent reviews from clients who identify themselves but the only negative review we have ever received on AVVO is anonymous. Could this be a jealous competitor? Nevertheless, some tenants simply do not have the rent or refuse to pay any rent. You can not get blood from a stone. In a case that the tenant refuses to pay the rent, the eviction will be quicker (i.e. 3 months instead of 6) but clearly the review here (if it is real) states that we did evict the tenant so the landlord was successful in winning the case but did not collect any rent. Some landlords simply do not understand that the nature of the beast in housing court is that some tenants simply do not pay rent and that is why we evicted the tenant. If this is from a real client, I am sorry that the client did understand the difficulty of landlord tenant Court in the City of New York. By the way, if the landlord would have waited for a Trial on this matter, the Court is so overloaded that it would have taken another 3 months until a Judge was available to have a Trial on this matter and then obtaining and serving a warrant of eviction and the landlord would have lost another 3 months.

The King of Brooklyn

Back in 2013, my roommate and I had been using Airbnb to share our apartment. When the landlords started sending thugs to intimidate our guests, we sought legal relief and found Balsamo-Rosenblatt to be exactly what we needed. We met with Robert who was very receptive, sympathetic, and extremely pr...ofessional in conveying our options as tenants. The years and years of experience shined through in his approach, exuding the confidence we were looking for and I am glad our gut instinct was correct because we were able to establish a clear line of communication, and Robert and Ed both helped to negotiate the fairest terms to create a win-win situation. Without these guys, who knows what would have happened in court? I cannot say enough wonderful things about this law firm. Robert and Ed are my first, second, and third options when it comes to our landlord-tenant issues. I highly recommend them if you're in either position, as they offer the best value, experience, and client-relationship management you'll find in New York City.
