Ehhh..

I gave a 2 star because he did see me the same day.I couldn't really tell you if he earns a 5 star review to be honest or of he is even knowledgable or hardworking .He yawned the whole time I was there he seemed not at all interested in anything I had to say. I rushed there to see him for his counsel... and I felt i had more anxiety leaving. I think he nearly fell asleep on me . I honestly got the "yea, yea,(yawn),next " side of him. So I'm assuming he was tired. That said not sure about him as a go to lawyer ,but I can say he broke the world record if there ever was one in yawning .

I AM SORRY THAT U DID NOT HAVE A GOOD EXPERIENCE. WE ARE ALL HUMAN BEINGS AND PEOPLE YAWN, AND SNEEZE AND COUGH, THESES ARE THINGS WE HAVE NO CONTROL OVER. YOU OBVIOUSLY ARE JUST LOOKING FOR A REASON TO COMPLAIN AND BLAME OTHERS FOR YOUR PROBLEMS, CLEARLY U HAVE DEEPER PROBLEMS THAN SOMEONE PERHAPS YAWNING. TO LEAVE A REVIEW ABOUT SOMEONE YAWNING IS RIDICULOUS.

Owner KOL Global Logistics

Shawn did an incredible job, taking care of this mess. It was a bad situation for our driver, gone worse, when the police just hit him with several violations, not knowing what had just occurred. KOL appreciates your effort in getting this matter resolved. Extremely prompt and professional.

HORRIBLE

I called him in regards to a civil case, his assistant had a very thick Spanish accent and had no idea what I speaking of. If I'm asking for an attorney or what. He then transferred me to Shawn directly I gave him an oversight of my case. Shawn was completely rude and apathetic to my case. Lack of ...professionalism to say the least. I hung up I couldn't believe it.

Shawn Kassman Excellent Attorney

I engaged Shawn to assist me with a legal matter in Ocean Beach, Fire Island. Shawn was strategic in his lawyering. Ultimately, we received a fair outcome that I was very pleased with. During my trial, I realized how well respected Shawn is in his field but this came as no surprise. I will certainly ...use him again for any relevant legal needs. Highly Recommended.

Helpful

Mr. Kassman made sure that communication was key I'm our consultation. When I called his assistant made sure I was able to get into the firm to speak with him as quick as possible. He broke down the situation I was going through, and the options I could take. He then advised me of the path I would ta...ke in the future if further litigation were to occur. Very pleased with this experience.
