Lawyer par excellence

I was in a very difficult situation during the oncoming COVID crisis and on the verge of a catastrophe with my company and personal finances. I went to Lawyer Andrew M. Thaler for advice. I was very impressed by his patience in hearing out my problems and his self confidence and knowledge of the law ...in his honest recommendations on the course of action to be taken for the best outcome in my situation, without any bias for his own financial enrichment. But what was more astounding was the flexibility he showed during and after the court case. With Andrew, it is not money by the minute, but integrity, his work ethics and his compassion for the client. I recommend Andrew to anybody who wants a pleasant and the right experience and at the same time, deal with an excellent lawyer.

Real Estate Closing

I wish to express my sincere appreciation for the excellent service provided by Mr. Thaler and his very competent staff on their handling of the closing on my parent’s home. They made the entire procedure a seamless and pleasant experience. I would not hesitate to use Mr. Thaler again in the future f...or my legal needs.

Excellent Advocate

Mr. Thaler is an excellent attorney who does exactly what he says he will do. He and his staff are prompt, attentive, and responsive to requests concerning the legal matter he is hired for. His knowledge of Federal Bankruptcy Laws is second to none and I completely felt that he knew what he was talki...ng about and what the possible outcomes of the litigation would be. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to hire counsel for a Federal Bankruptcy related legal matter.

"I have known Andrew Thaler professionally and personally for well over a decade, and consider him to be among the cream of the crop in the legal community. Andy’s stellar reputation as an experienced Long Island-based, NY Metro area bankruptcy and insolvency lawyers is well deserved. He takes a rational and practical approach to what often are intricately complex and difficult legal and financial situations. Andy has vast experience as a result of his long-time appointment as a Trustee for the federal bankruptcy court on L.I. He also is well versed in bankruptcy mediation, a deservedly growing area of practice, which he both practices and teaches to other lawyers. I am proud and pleased to call him a colleague and friend, and recommend him without reservation to anyone seeking counsel in his areas of practice."
