Ari Risson Karpf

I was fortunate to have been referred to Ari when facing a seriously hostile, and very unusual employment dispute. From the first conversation and through many weeks of tense negotiations with the other party, Ari gave me confidence and comfort. His grasp of employment law is exceptional. He is hi...ghly skilled at reading situations and people, and is relentless in representing the best interests of his clients. I was continually impressed with Ari's availability and responsiveness - he communicated whenever necessary regardless of day or time. His attention made me feel like I was in good hands. I've since had the opportunity to refer him to several people and their feedback has been equally positive.

My discussion with Ari Karpf was nothing but eye opening and extremely informative on the situation I was subject to by my employer. He is a very quick learner and after hearing the quick details of my situation gave me the confidence that he would go to bat for me and ensure that my employer would h...ave no choice but to be fair to me. I am averse to conflict, and as Ari understood this he helped me through the options I could use for communication with my employer that met my needs. He seemed to be a very honest and realistic counsel that I would go to for any of my legal needs in the future. An optimist who would provide you with a realistic view on options to manage your situation - can you ask for more? I prefer not posting my name as I am still negotiating my contract based on Ari’s recommendations.

When I got initially denied in my unemployment case I was absolutely lost at what to do. Luckily enough, I found Karpf, Karpf & Cerutti, P.C. They immediately took over for me and helped me as I walked through this confusing process. Samantha’s compassion and understanding gave me the biggest sigh of... relief. She asked every question possible and helped me get to the hearing process where… I WON. She helped me get the decision reversed. I cannot thank Karpf, Karpf & Cerutti, P.C enough. MY SAVIORS.

I recently had an opportunity to work with Ari regarding an adverse employment situation with a public university in Pennsylvania. There are so many things that stand out from my meetings with him. 1) Following my call to his firm, he initially contacted me on a Sunday which worked great for my... schedule - I loved his availability. 2) He was personally invested in the assessment of my situation and did a great job asking questions about the circumstances of my case without giving false hope about the strength of my case. He was matter-of-fact and specific. 3) He took incredibly copious notes. About a month passed between my initial phone call with him and me ultimately hiring Ari to assist in navigating my situation. When we met for the second time, I was amazed at the thoroughness and recollection of the details of my case and we were able to get right into the heart of the decision making about how to move forward. And once I hired him we met almost immediately. There was no dust gathering as I worried about my situation. He was action oriented with the goal of moving to resolution. 4) He was clearly willing to do the work necessary to achieve success, but he also suggested ways to move forward that were less threatening to my employer and allowed me to achieve a satisfactory outcome that was timely, financially beneficial, and wasn't litigious. 5) He used his expert knowledge and experience to assess my situation in a way that allowed me to understand the strengths and weaknesses of my situation and what the most appropriate path forward would be. 6) He consistently checked during the course of our conversation to assess my level of comprehension. 7) He uses great analogies that can make a complicated topic understandable. 8) My situation was resolved rather quickly and did not require significant time. Had we needed to approach the situation in a more aggressive manner, I loved knowing Ari was in my corner and working on my behalf. He was strong, confident and competent in his approach to my case and I have every belief he would have arrived at an even more beneficial resolution to my claims were it necessary to do so. I give Ari the highest recommendation and strongly encourage you to retain him as your attorney should you find yourself in need of legal representation when dealing with an employment situation. I'm incredibly thankful for his guidance and counsel and you will be too.
