I've just begun a civil litigation for medical malpractice and in the first and only meeting that we had I found Mr Karasik erudite, personable and highly informative. He's very easy to talk to and he came highly recommended. I left feeling confident that I had definitely made the right choice in retaining his firm.
Alexander Karasik is the founder of Karasik Law Group, P.C. Mr. Karasik is a trial attorney who loves doing trials and he believes that a good lawyer, like a good doctor, must ply his or her trade on the ultimate stage: the courtroom for attorneys; the operating room for doctors. His practice concentrates on the prosecution of personal injury, medical malpractice and wrongful death actions, as well as business, contractual and commercial disputes including construction litigation.
Recognized for his outstanding litigation skills by both peers and adversaries, Mr. Karasik has obtained large trial verdicts and million dollar settlements in the areas of personal injury and medical malpractice. He recently obtained a $1.2 Million settlement against the City of New York in a slip and fall matter. Driven by a fierce desire to achieve the best results for his clients, he has fought for each dollar in compensation for his clients and is very proud of his achievement rate. His clients have called him “compassionate and accessible.” He considers his clients his friends, and treats them as such and in return gets the same warm treatment from his clients. Mr. Karasik subscribes to the motto: “being a good lawyer means living your client’s plight as if it were your own.”
Mr. Karasik is a member of the New York Trial Lawyers’ Association. In his spare time, he enjoys skiing, playing tennis and spending time with his children doing just about anything.

I would recommend this lawyer
In my business I am working with a lot of attorneys during 16 years.
I had good attorneys, I had bad attorneys, but I never had anybody so good as Alexander Karasik.
I had with Alexander Karasik two cases. In both of them he showed himself as very knowledgeable, experienced and successful attorney.
First was loan modification and he knew exactly what to do and I got it done pretty fast and with good terms for me. It saved me a lot of money and his fee was very reasonable.
Second I went through ugly foreclosure very recently. Alexander was on a top of the whole process from the very beginning. He informed me on regular basis where we are. He negotiated a lot of with mortgage companies, private mortgage holder etc. I have to admit that his negotiating skills are excellent, because I received terms that I could never dream about.
If you are in need of attorney with Alexander Karasik's expertise - do not hesitate: you are going to be in right hands.

Better call Alex...
I have hired Karasik Law Group for several real estate transactions, both in the sale and purchase of properties. I am in the business of purchasing and flipping distressed real estate. Alex is highly knowledgeable in all facets of real estate, and this includes in depth knowledge of foreclosure law and distressed situations.
Let me give you an example. I purchased a high profile foreclosed Manhattan apartment at auction and flipped it to a highly sophisticated and well represented musician. The transaction was riddled with problems, including title issues (as a result of the foreclosure), flipping issues (as a result of a renovation gone bad), and communication issues (attorneys from California are not good with NYC real estate). Alex handled my purchase and sale and got everything done with ease. Best of all, I doubled my money on the flip (this is public record and Alex can show this to you when you consult with him).
I would recommend Alex to any lender (for foreclosure work), or borrower (to defend foreclosure), or simply purchase/seller of real estate (in arm's length transactions). Alex is my go to real estate attorney, and for that matter, go to lawyer in all aspects of life. He is my first point of contact with all things legal. Better call Saul (I mean Alex).

personal and proffesional help
I am a client of Karasik Law Group for about 3 years. KLG was recommended by my friends. Previously had several unpleasant experiences with 2 other attorneys I finally found right office. Karasik Law Group helped me with my home loan modification and saved my property from foreclosure and helped me with short sale of my other property in my time of hardship. He was excellent with my credit cards settlements. I am grateful to Alex Karasik and his stuff for their professionalism and personal attention that I got during past 3 years. I want to thank KLG for real help in hard times for me. I would highly recommend Karasik Law Group to all my friends and anyone without a heartbeat.
Thank You.

Landlord - Tenant Seller - Buyers
I would like to recommend Alex and thank him for litigating a very complex situation in more then a few cases. He has handled shareholder dispute with outmost respect to all parties but at the same time protecting our interest to the fullest. He has great knowledge in negotiating business leases. He saved our business by negotiating a deal between the landlord the seller tenant and us which was a very difficult situation. He is firm confident and knowledgable and has a tone of experience.
