I paid Shawn Kassman $1300 dollars upfront to evict a tenant from beginning to end of the legal process. The day of court Shawn never showed up, instead he sent an assistant who I believe was an attorney. We came to a stipulation settlement with the tenant which was worked out over a painful period o...f time because the assistant couldn't comprehend what was going on. In the end the tenant didn't keep to the agreement and part of my agreement with Shawn was that he would finish it from beginning to end. So now months later he has to submit affidavit of non-compliance. Which he does but its incoherent, illegible, and his math in the figures do not add up correctly. So being, the court rejects it. When I explained to Shawn what he did wrong he became belligerent and defensive. In our texts he refused to re-do the affidavit and and he threatened me with arrest saying I was harassing him when all I wanted him to do was comply with our agreement. This kind of behavior should not come from a person who is supposed to be an officer of the court. I don't believe anyone should have to go through this. My advice to everyone reading this is steer clear from this man. The final result of all this was that I had to retain another attorney.

Mr. Kassman has been extremely professional from the very beginning. From the moment I contacted him on the weekend he spoke with me in detail and explained the process of what was needed. He took his time on the phone and let me know i could call anytime I needed to. Weekend , evening, daytime, a...nytime. He also communicated through email and I was able to sign any documents to hire him from my computer. I was also able to make payments easy by paying on line. I never had to run into his office and go out of my way. I am so happy that he has helped me resolve my issue. Even more happy that he listened and understood what I needed to have done and fought for me in court. Mr. Kassman has been very helpful, compassionate and resourceful. He is extremely knowledgable and very confident. I found his confidence very helpful in a stressful situation. I am so thankful that he made me feel that I was in good hands and I certainly was. Mr. Kassman's secretary kept in touch even if it was just to let me know he would be calling me later that day. Very professional and trustworthy law firm. I would recommend to anyone Who needs help. He worked on my case fast and resolved it quickly. Thank you so much for helping me when I really needed it.

I had called Shawn to help me with about 5 different and OLD traffic tickets in my abstract. I no linger live in NY and these tickets went back as far as 2001 Not only did he pull my drivers abstract during the initial call, he explained his entire opinion on what he could do immediately afterwar...ds. After agreeing to pa his fees, he went ahead, within TWO days total and performed exactly as he said he would. I never had to leave my home state and he certainly did a better job then if I went on my own. Of all the things in life to accomplish, using Shawn for tickets over 1000 miles away was a no-brainer. I could only imagine how well it would be in person! Thanks for everything

Our consultation was 35 minutes. We were interested in evicting a problem tenant. He demanded cash as payment. We went from his office to subway for lunch during which time our tenant agreed to our terms. We were back in his office in less than two hours for a refund and that's when the fun started. ...He first said he would keep 100, we reminded him of the free consultation then he switched and said he'll give us back 150. He then said to leave and come back tomorrow and proceeded to call the cops. We worked with the police to recover 250 of our stolen money. Shawn did not render any service other than having his secretary print out one form. Bottom line. Steer away...
