No words to express
Before hiring Mr. Katz, I reviewed his online referrals and recommendations. I saw some negative, and at firs I was weary, but then he was highly recommended by not one by two Supreme Court judges in NYC. I thought if judges thought he was worthy of their recommendations.

Greedy and unprofessional
I had the misfortune of having Joshua R. Katz as my divorce attorney in what was a pretty simple case.

Unfortunately, this person did not put his/her name to the review, so I can't comment on specifics. If, in fact, any client of mine felt this way, then I apologize if I turned a stressful divorce into a more unpleasant event. I pride myself on returning calls within 24 hours, e-mails same day. My office staff are always available to reach me in any emergency situation. Communication between lawyer and client is an essential element of effective representation.
