Sticks to it...

Mr. Krukas really helped in my case with an unethical car manufact, It took nearly 8 months to FORCE them to do the right thing & settle. He must have sent me at least 50 emails & called me no less than 15-20 times, in order to keep me posted. And when it looked like they would try to beat me, Mr. Kr...ukas threatened them with additional litigation for being in breach of contract. They caved in the next day. I could not have done this on my own....THANK YOU

Happy Client

I took delivery of the new replacement car today, thanks to the advise and support I received from Eugene Krukas. I first contacted Mr. Krukas about 6 months ago, after my first repair. While my car was not eligible for a warranty replacement at that point, Mr. Krukas explained the law and walked me ...through the process, necessary documentation, what to watch for and next steps. Mr. Krukas kept in touch during this time - the communication was very clear and his replies came virtually instantaneously, even on weekends. After the third significant repair and over 30 days in the shop, the car became eligible for a replacement at which point Mr Krukas explained my options, we formalized the engagement and Mr. Krukas proceeded with the case. He received an offer from the manufacturer in less than a week and subsequently negotiated a better deal for a replacement vehicle, saving us just under $1,500 - we could not be happier! I highly recommend his services and would like to thank him one more time for his help, time and dedication.

Satisfied Client

I initially contacted Mr Krukas after months of frustration pertaining to my 2009 VW Tiguan that had been in and out of service 11 times in less than 18 months. His firm evaluated my case and provided me with sound advice in how I could proceed. His expertise proved extremely valuable in my dealing...s with various VW Service Mangers, dealers and VW Customer Service. Mr Krukas was extremely patient and helpful during the nearly 2 months it took to finish the service process before he was able to file a lemon claim. In the end, I was extremely satisfied with the advice, service and outcome I received from Mr. Krukas and his firm . I would turn to Mr. Krukas again should I be faced with another Lemon issues and highly recommend him to anyone experiencing possible lemon issues with their automobile. Jason, New York, NY

Lemon Law Lawsuit with Chrysler / Jeep

I contacted Eugene for my Lemon Law case with Chrysler/Jeep. The whole process was so easy, the documents and paper work all was done via email or US Mail. Eugene took the time to explain everything and answered any and ALL of my questions and concerns. My 2010 Jeep Liberty Limited had major transmis...sion problems. Eugene reviewed my case and represented me in my case with Chrysler. My case was settled in a few months time and resulted in Chrysler buying back my Jeep. I would recommend Eugene to represent you in a Lemon Law lawsuit. Thanks Eugene for the great job in representing my in my Lemon Law lawsuit with Chrysler.

Happy client

I am happy to complete this testimonial on behalf of the service I received regarding my problem with Volkswagen Auto Group.  When my car went back to the dealer for the second time I was devastated.  I was facing a $400 dollar monthly payment while the car was continuing to stall out intermittently....  The dealer already had my car for about twenty days, replacing all of the fuel pumps.  When I picked up the car this time I was assured that VW sent a technical rep that assured me the car was repaired with precision and would prove to be mechanically sound.   Within a few days I was pulling out of my work and the car stalled.  I managed to get it running but it was to late to go back to the dealer.  During this whole process I was talking to Mr. Krukas on the phone even though I was not officially a client.  Mr. Krukas coached me through every step of this terrible situation.  He explained the law with clarity,  giving me the information I needed to protect my interest.  At this point Mr. Krukas advise me to seek help from another dealer since things became very unpleasant at the purchasing dealer.   The new dealer kept my car for more than a week and told me that the issue “could not be duplicated” and they sent me on my way.  Again Mr. Krukas communicated what I need to do in the event the car stalled.  After almost a month the car stalled again.  I went back to the dealer and followed the instructions that Mr. Krukas clearly spelled out.  Again my car was in the shop for about a week and the dealer replaced the ignition system and a fuel pressure sensor assuring me the the lead technician was sure that this would resolve the problem.  Ultimately Mr. Krukas resolved my problem by securing a brand new car.  He emailed and called me every step of the way.  He held VW accountable proving his skill as an attorney.
