Positive: Effective, efficient, and courageous
Describing the overwhelming emotions that surged within me when I received a call from Dennis Abrahamson, delivering the news of my approved ECFMG certification, proves to be a formidable task. Dennis displayed remarkable clarity in managing my case, setting himself apart not only through his profound expertise but also his unwavering honesty and compassionate approach. My interaction with him was undeniably extraordinary. Therefore, for any issues related to NBME, USMLE, and ECFMG certification, I wholeheartedly endorse reaching out to Dennis Abrahamson. My initial contact with Dennis involved completing a form on his website, with no expectation of an immediate response. Yet, to my astonishment, within just a few hours, even during his vacation, Dennis took the initiative to call me. This single act spoke volumes about his unwavering commitment to his clients. Throughout our conversation, Dennis patiently addressed all my inquiries and concerns. His readiness to go above and beyond, even while abroad, vividly illustrated his dedication to meeting his clients' needs. Upon his return to the U.S., he reached out to me once more, reaffirming his unwavering dedication. What truly distinguishes Dennis is his genuine concern for his clients' well-being. Dennis personally handled my case, achieving a successful outcome. His selfless provision of expertise and time to help me navigate my situation is something for which words cannot adequately express my gratitude. If you find yourself in need of legal guidance in the areas of NBME, USMLE, or related matters, do not hesitate to contact Dennis Abrahamson.

I cannot speak highly enough of Dennis Abramson and his unparalleled expertise in matters related to NBME and the USMLE. If you're in need of assistance in these areas, he is undoubtedly the person to turn to. Dennis stands out not only for his deep knowledge but also for his unwavering honesty and compassionate approach. My experience with him was nothing short of remarkable. I initially reached out by leaving a voice message, not expecting an immediate response. However, within just a few hours – even during his vacation in Japan – Dennis took the time to call me back. This alone spoke volumes about his dedication to his clients. During our conversation, Dennis patiently addressed all of my questions and concerns. His willingness to go above and beyond, even while abroad, truly showcased his commitment to his clients' needs. Upon his return to the U.S., he reached out to me again, further demonstrating his dedication. What truly sets Dennis apart is his genuine care for his clients' well-being. Not only did he provide me with invaluable insights, but he also went a step further by referring me to a fellow attorney who specialized in the specific area I needed assistance with. Dennis took it upon himself to personally connect with the referred attorney, advocating on my behalf. What's truly astounding is that all of this support and assistance came without any charge. Dennis selflessly provided his expertise, time, and connections to help me navigate my situation. It's hard to put into words just how thankful I am for his exceptional assistance. In a world where true dedication and genuine compassion can be hard to find, Dennis Abramson shines as a beacon of both. If you find yourself in need of legal guidance in the realms of NBME, USMLE, or related matters, do not hesitate to reach out to him. Dennis is a rare find, and I am beyond grateful for the support he extended to me.

Thoughtful and to the point!
Reached out to Dennis regarding a home I was planning to buy and had a short consultation. He let me talk about my concerns, walked me through my options, and made it obvious that my nerve-wracking home buying situation is something he has seen plenty of times before! While I hope I do not have to reach out again, I would work with him in a heartbeat. Thank you!

A Legal Powerhouse - Extraordinary in Every Sense
Dennis Abramson, Esq. is an extraordinary lawyer in every sense of the word. I had the delight of working with his firm over the course of several months, and from the start, I was struck by Mr. Abramson's remarkable level of care and attention to my legal matter. His knowledge and expertise was incredibly reassuring, and his responsiveness, both via phone and email, is second to none. No question or concern was too small or trivial for him to address and his timely responses were always thorough and informative. Though what sets Dennis apart is his relentless pursuit of a favorable outcome for his clients, working tirelessly to be your dedicated and successful advocate. In an era where the personal touch can often be missing in professional interactions, Dennis Abramson offers a refreshing mix of old-school professionalism with a modern, client-centric approach. He is truly a shining example of what it means to be not just a great lawyer, but a great human being. In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend Dennis Abramson for any and all legal disputes or issues you may have. His work is exemplary, his approach is compassionate, and his results speak for themselves. Trust me, you want him on your side.

Excellent knowledge of NRMP and the residency selection process
I hired Dennis to help me navigate a tricky situation with the NRMP involving a possible accidental match violation. Thanks to his prompt and sound guidance, I was able to avoid investigation and stay in the good graces of the NRMP as well as the residency programs. I recommend reading the NRMP match agreement very carefully, but if you feel uncertain or think you may have committed a match violation, I cannot recommend Dennis more highly. He was responsive, knowledgeable, caring, and friendly. This is doubly wonderful because so few other attorneys even know what the NRMP is, let alone have a dedicated practice in this area.

Exceptional Service from Dennis Abramson: Honest, Knowledgeable, and Committed
Dennis Abramson went above and beyond to help me with my ECFMG certificate issue. He took the time to have two in-depth discussions with me and made a special effort to reach out to the ECFMG committee on my behalf, all without asking for any compensation. When he received an answer, he was truthful and informed me that pursuing a lawsuit was likely to fail. I am deeply grateful for his assistance and kindness. Dennis is knowledgeable about ECFMG, has personal connections within the organization, and is an honest and pleasant individual. I highly recommend him for anyone in need of ECFMG assistance.

The best ECFMG attorney ever!
Mr. Abramson( Dennis) is knowledgeable, expert, respectful, and professional. He explores the root of the problem accurately and then finds the best solution to it. If there is anything to be done to solve the issue, I strongly believe he is the only one who can do it right.

Exam Attempts Limit
Dennis is a great attorney and excellent at what he does; even better a companionate human being and a great listener. He took time off his vacation to attend to me. I had multiple failures on my board exam thus exceeding attempt limit. I received approval to re-attempt exam within 11 days of his filing my appeal. Empathy, compassion and expertise, with attention to details are unsurpassed. Thank you Dennis for helping me get 5th life.

Dennis knows his stuff no doubt!
With our first phone call, which was answered by Dennis, (don’t you hate all the recordings, press one for this two for that? Yeah me too!) Anyway, he listened throughly to our complaint. He new exactly what we we’re trying to convey and eloquently in terms we could understand, directed us onto the right path. Unfortunately it wasn’t with him, but if it was, he would be our first call. Great guy with great advise.

the best Lawyer
Getting email from ECFMG to be suspected in Irregular behavior is the hardest news in doctor's carrier. Unfortunately, I got this one. This day changed my entire life, I was confused, shocked, lost, alone, couldn’t understand what I did wrong. To say briefly, it was human mistake but I had to prove this. I googled several attorneys and I Found mister Abramson. I became lucky. He didn’t promised anything, he explained deeply and gave me free consultation in my first call and I became impressed how he was educative and professional. Luckily he agreed to become my attorney. He did his best and I did my best to show committee that I didn’t intend to do anything wrong, even when you are right it’s hard to show it without attorney because you have no idea what the hearing process is and how they will understand your situation. To say briefly Abramson gave me my life and carrier back. I do recommend him. And thank you mister Abramson again!

Exceptional assistance and support
Mr. Dennis Abramson had assisted me in filing a report to ECFMG on an accidental omission. Mr. Abramson consulted me on what to expect, how we would proceed, and he did so at no charge for the consultation. Understanding the level of confidence and experience Mr. Abramson had, I willingly chose him as a lawyer to assist me with composing a letter. Upon hiring Mr. Dennis Abramson, he followed through on all steps we had previously discussed related to clearing any misunderstanding on my behalf. From the onset, Mr. Abramson focused on pertinent details that I would have otherwise overlooked. His years of experience was on full display at every step of the process. We composed a letter explaining a potentially problematic situation and to address any unintended consequences that could have been disastrous due to an accidental omission. Upon submitting the letter to the appropriate committee and walking me through step-by-step what may occur in different scenarios, Mr. Abramson took on an active psychosocial supportive role while we waited for a response.

Highest Recommendation
I give my highest recommendation to Attorney Dennis Abramson. As the previous reviews and comments have suggested, Attorney Abramson is top-tier, peerless, and pristine lawyer when it comes to his knowledge and the way he translates that knowledge in crucial and pivotal advice and actions. I was extremely fortunate to contact him for a delicate administrative and legal matter. While his experience and previous achievements speak for themselves, what really struck me was his humane and kind approach. His interpersonal skills are truly what set him apart and make him such a remarkable and outstanding lawyer. He took my case even though he was on vacation when I contacted him. He was always available, answering e-mails and calls in a timely manner, every day of the week and at all times. He would go out of his way to explain a certain situation and would always leave room for discussion. I felt like my interests were his top priority, and I felt well-counselled; he is honest and trustworthy. His calm demeanor was reassuring in trying times. Thanks to his valuable help, my issue could be resolved, and potential significant consequences on my career have been avoided. I cannot thank Attorney Abramson enough for his help and his time, and I would recommend him to anyone looking for a consummate and superb lawyer.

Professional and Communicative
For my situation, I contacted several attorneys to make an appeal to the ECFMG. When I spoke with Mr. Dennis Abramson, he was the only one who questioned me if I was sure I wanted to spend money on a appeal that had very little chance of success. I decided to go with Mr. Abramson because of his honesty and his explanation of the appeal process made me feel confident of his previous experience. I am extremely grateful for his guidance and advice as with his help, my case was successfully argued. He was very communicative, extremely professional and despite his best efforts to lower my expectations, made feel confident that my best chance to win my appeal was with his help. I feel very sure in recommending Mr Dennis Abramson for attorney help in ECFMG cases. If I had another case within his scope of practice, I would contact him for his advice. It was truly a pleasure working with him. -Raul J de la Vega, MD (thanks in part to the efforts of Mr Abramson)
