Review

I recently hired Peter Rand and he took my 3500 and didn't do anything for me. He said he wrote up a motion and submitted it to the courts but when the judges decision came none of the evidence that he had in his paperwork was looked at by the court. I told him to just reread the judges decision it c...learly indicates that his petition and any papers submitted therewith were wholly insufficient to prove anything which proves the judge never saw it. I called him numerous times and he never calls back. When he did he said"You paid me to draft an affidavit.  We did. It’s stamped received by the court. I don’t control what the court does or what they decide. Results are never guaranteed. That’s litigation. I never saw proof that it was stamped but there is proof that it wasnt submitted and not in my file. I lost a case that was a slam dunk.  I asked for a refund and he is now giving me the run around.

He is AMAZING!!!

I was appointed this lawyer as council in a supreme court matter and he took on my case completely. He made me feel comfortable and as if I had a voice. He initially didn't have an office staff but has since hired new staff to help him. They are all so friendly and compassionate, I feel like they... care when I call. I totally recommend this law firm and attorney to anyone, he is amazing.

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2020.

Disbarment issued in NY, 2020

updated on 03/28/2022

Disbarment is the most serious penalty for a lawyer. If this attorney is currently practicing law, you should contact the Appellate Division of the State Supreme Court to understand the reasons for disbarment.

Suspension issued in NY, 2020

updated on 09/08/2021

Suspended means an attorney lost his or her license to practice law for a period of time. The attorney typically returns to practicing law when the suspension expires.

Censured issued in NY, 2017

updated on 09/08/2021

When an attorney is censured it means he or she did something wrong but may still practice law. Typically in this case the lawyer's poor behavior is exposed to the public in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.
