Great attorney

I worked with Jan for quite a few years and he is a good attorney. He handled things for my mom and me and we were happy with him and he was a pleasure to work for.

Great Legal Help and Service!!!

I was referred to attorney Medoff in September, 2022. Upon contacting him regarding my situation he took the time to discuss my options and explained exactly what needed to be done. He answered all of my questions and provided me with excellent legal advice. We agreed upon a price which was very reas...onable and I was able to easily make payment via my Visa Card. Attorney Medoff then proceeded to make all the necessary moves to get my situation resolved, he kept me updated regarding the progress he was making and within two months it was resolved successfully. I would strongly recommend attorney Medoff to my friends and family.

Amazing!!

Jan was my first ever actual attorney. Our landlord was trying to screw us over because all three of my children ended up with elevated lead levels because of the peeling paint and they're constantly sick because of the amount of black mold in the home. My children's pediatrician ended up calling the... department of health and within 3 hours he was retaliating. This man was trying to sue us for $12,000 basically so that we would have to pay to repair the mold and whatnot. We didn't know what we were going to do. A very good friend of ours recommended his attorney to us and I could not be more grateful. We called him, sent him our stuff, he reviewed everything, and came 150% prepared to the hearing. We ended up walking away not owing a penny and not even having to pay rent for this month because it's inhabitable. If it wasn't for him we would be paying the full $12,000 because we don't know the law like he does. His personality is a bit strong, but I feel that's needed in a good lawyer.

Amazing Civil Defense Attorney!

Mr Medoff Esq is a great attorney he’s been in the law biz for over 35 years! I prefer attorneys who’ve seen everything the law has to throw at them. This is what makes a great attorney! No time for messing around he tells you what the law is and your in good hands if represented by him! Fast respons...e! & Fast Filings! He guides you as if we are already at trial phase and knows the opponents moves so we are always prepared! Would recommend!
