Thorough and thoughtgful service

Mr. Doktofsky handled my bankruptcy case in a very thoughtful and considerate manner. He went over all aspects of the case with me and made sure there were no surprises. Mr. Doktofsky was always available to answer my questions and kept me updated. Everything went smoothly due to his competence.

Well deserved

Mr. Doktofsky was hired to represent me against claims of an owed debt. He was able to have the judgement vacated with very little involvement from myself. His communication with us throughout the process was great. The 5 star review is well deserved. Jason F.

Termination of automatic stay

My husband and I were very satisfied with the services provided by attorney Andrew M. Doktofsky. He was successful in having an automatic stay terminated so we were able to continue the eviction process to remove the tenants residing in our house and regain use of our property. All of our phone cal...ls and emails were returned promptly. Andrew took the time to answer all our questions and explain in detail how he would proceed so we had a good understanding how the process worked and what the time frame would be. His fee was reasonable and what he originally quoted to us on our first visit. We weren't charged anything extra or unexpected. We would highly recommend his services and would use Andrew again in the future should the need arise.

The Best Bankruptcy Lawyer Period.

My wife and I had a very complicated bankruptcy case related to a multitude of variables that Andrew help us sort through. My wife and I are beyond grateful for the dedicated time and expertise that Andrew provided us. He was very patient throughout the entire process and would answer any new concer...ns in a timely fashion. He provided my wife and I facts and properly managed our expectations during our bankruptcy filling. At the actual bankruptcy proceedings he was on time and well prepared which helped ease our worry. It is important to note that we received our discharge---all because of Andrew's hard work. We can not praise Andrew's work ethic, and skill enough. We whole heartedly recommend Andrew to anyone who is seeking to file for bankruptcy.

Andrew M Doktofsky- not your basic attorney .

I've dealt with lawyers most of my adult life, and for the record let me state ( I don't like them ! ) if you are looking for a lawyer with morals , scruples, a straight shooter who has your best interest in mind , you will most likely NOT find it in a lawyer. Having said all of the above I set ou...t trying to find help vacating a judgement against me. I spoke with just about every lawyer on Long Island and most were impatient , rude, or non responsive, until I read a article andrew had written on a similar case as mine, clear ,concise, and factual, with no bs. I'm not a intellectual by no means, I'm a hard working individual with just a high school diploma ( ged) and when I finally went to see andrew I found he was a retired law inforcement officer who had also worked hard all his life, with a sence of justice, compassion, empathy and very humble personality............( NOT YOUR BASIC LAWYER ) I've made a lot of bad decisions in my life, but hiring Andrew was not one of them - in fact it was probably the best decision I've ever made. Andrew had won my case ! But even if we had lost, I would have still felt the same. I'm deeply indebted to Andrew for his help and understanding. I would not hesitate to hire him again , or ask for assistance in any other matter where law is concerned.....thank you Andrew .
