Ari Karpf is an Elite Attorney

I hired Mr. Ari Karpf to serve as my legal counsel for a wage dispute with my employer. Karpf is an attentive, intelligent, and diligent attorney who did exactly what I asked of him and more. Mr. Karpf went above and beyond to answer my questions before, during, and after taking me as a client. ... His 20+ years of experience practicing employment and labor, wrongful termination, and discrimination law served me well as he was already familiar with hundreds of cases similar to mine which led to a prompt solution to my dispute. If you are looking for an attorney, I highly recommend setting up a consultation with Mr. Karpf or his equally competent partners.

Exceptional

I hired Ari to handle a severance agreement with a previous employer. I did so based on the fact that the firm I originally hired got off to a very rough start in my negotiations. The contentious negotiations actually got worse from there, with the company threatening to retract all monetary compen...sation and even to threaten legal action - prompting me to switch my representation to Ari. Immediately, there was a change in not only tone (much more empathy, much less "clubiness" with opposing attorneys), but more importantly, Ari immediately showed a willingness to be aggressive and fight, given that my position was definitely defensible. This was exactly what was needed. As Ari mentioned to me several times, he emphasizes results - and that was exactly what he achieved. Not only did I wind up with a successful outcome in terms of a severance agreement, but when I later wound up in a billing dispute with the firm I went with originally, Ari reached a satisfactory outcome there as well. Throughout, Ari himself - no associates or paralegals - handled all interactions with me. He was highly accessible, even after hours and on weekends. Even in some very tense discussions regarding the negotiations, he managed to keep me calm, and often flashed a sense of humor that I found extremely refreshing. I would highly recommend Ari and his firm for any legal work regarding employment issues. Since I was in a unique position to be able to compare, I found Ari's approach superior to that of a well-known employment firm in the area, who clearly was larger and more well-resourced (and charged accordingly). Ari's ability to empathize, and his unabashed willingness to fight hard for his clients is second to none. Going forward, his firm will be my "go to" for any legal issues related to employment law - without question.

Small Business Owner well served

Ari Karpf is a real professional. He and his staff were extraordinarily knowledgeable and they efficiently resolved a substantial legal problem for me. He was extremely ethical. His fees were very reasonable; I can't remember ever saying THIS about any other law firm!

Best employment attorney, BAR NONE!!

I retained Ari Karpf after firing a different attorney who was not very engaged or responsive with my case. I truly wished I would have initially with Ari and his firm; because from A to Z (consultation to resolution of my case), Mr. Karpf displayed expansive knowledge of all aspects of employment l...aw. He is EXTREMELY responsive; passionate; and explained everything honestly to me in layman’s terms every step of the way. I am elated with the results of my case, and always felt comfortable having Mr. Karpf fighting for my rights. This is the ONLY firm that I would retain if I encountered a situation as I did with my former employer, because Ari Karpf is an amazing lawyer; and the results speak for themselves!

Great Experience

The moment I contacted Karpf, Karpf and Cerutti I was treated with respect, compassion and professionalism which continued throughout the entire process of my legal matters. Ari and his team fought hard for me and I will always appreciate the tremendous amount of hard work and time which they poured... into my case and the settlement they won for me. Karpf, Karpf and Cerutti is a tremendous firm that represented me with the highest level of service which I will always be grateful for!
