My 2 cents...
Let me begin by saying Konrad did what we asked him to do. He was great. Our case took about 2 years, as it was a custody case, so this can be normal. Emails are the best way to communicate with him. He is a sole practice and I'd imagine he is out and about quite often, in court, giving free consultations, etc. Keep in mind, this also may allow him to keep his prices a tad lower than some other practices with all the bells and whistles. I read a poor review down below and I would imagine as a lawyer, you win some and you lose some, so your reviews may not be perfect. The person below was struggling with some sort of settlement for quite some time and they had mentioned that Mr. Jarzyna was out of the country 2 times. This was true. His mother was very ill and the 2nd time he left the country it was for her passing. These reviews are nice and usually helpful but on the same token we tend to lack compassion for others. I felt it necessary to make people aware that this attorney was not just sitting in the Bahamas sipping margheritas, he was attending to one of the most important things in his or anyone's life. I have seen what this attorney is capable of and he is fair. If he can help you, he will!

Won my disability case
Konrad helped me to win a very difficult disability case. I am not sure what I would have done without him. He is honest and truly cares about his clients. More than that, he knows the law and knows what to focus on in order to win. I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of an attorney.

Trustworthy & Honest
Konrad is a very honest person. He will give you all side of the issues, layout all your options, and kept you well informed. After having several representatives in the past that would continue to waste my time, and loose track of pending issues, it was very refreshing to work with Konrad.

Great repesentative
This attorney made a fool out of the plantiff. He picked up so many of the false statements made by the plantiff and made issue to his written complaint that he had to withdraw part of the case. He is fully knowledgable on the laws. I would fully recommend Konrad in any case with his credentials. He will treat you as a friend and with full honesty,

Helped me with unemployment issue
I was let go from my job unexpectedly and had concerns about whether my former employer would fight unemployment benefits. My friend recommended the O'Keefe and Sher office. I got help from Mr. Jarzyna there. He was very understanding and very helpful. He knew how to handle it, and I felt a lot more confident about being able to get benefits after I met with him. (I have never applied for unemployment before or needed the services of a lawyer, so this was all new to me). I thank him very much!

Bob highly recommends Konrad and his firm
I highly recommend Konrad and his firm. My family has used their services for several different law suits. More than just a legal advisor, Konrad and his firm are men of integrity. They do what is right, not just what is easy.

An intelligent, empathetic and exceptionally prepared attorney
I had the unpleasant experience of being electronically stalked and harrassed by a psychopathic young man whom I did not know, but who had paranoid delusions about a person with whom we both shared an acquantence. Despite calling my local police, the calls/texts persisted. Calling the number back to warn this nut I was going to call the police led to me being charged with making a harrassing call. Mr. Jarzyna was immediately responsive to my need for his expertise, prepared thoroughly, was clear about all my options, and negotiated a settlement that was acceptable to all. I would not hesitate to use him again (though one experience like this in a lifetime is enough).

A Lawyer that cares.
This is a lawyer that cares about the people he helps,he will go the extra mile for his clients.He understands your concerns and stress related with going to court.Konrad has answered emails @ 9:00pm at night,just so I might sleep without stressing all night,I do not know of any other lawyer that would do that. Konrad helped me in my custody case and did a super job,he is a father himself and really cares and that shows in the way he helps his clients. Bottom line if you need a lawyer you,get Konrad ! You will be glad you did.

My Rock
I was truly blessed when I found Konrad. Over the past year he has been my rock. My husband became ill with pancreatic cancer July of last year. We were devastated. During this time Konrad was there for me. His compassion was amazing. Not only did he handle all of the legal issues we were dealing with at that time but he cared about what we were going through. He is down to earth and very easy to talk to. My husband passed away in March of this year. I could not have gotten through that nightmare without KJ. I cannot thank him enough.

Dale's Review
In my opinion, Konrad is the best attorney around. He is unbelievably honest, trustworthy and reliable. I especially like the fact he is very down to earth. He talks to you like a person, not like most stuff shirt attorneys. I highly recommend Konrad to anyone who needs an attorney they can trust.

Konrad Review
Konrad is an excellent lawyer who not only is very knowledgable about law, but has a genuine care for his clients. I have used Konrads services on multilpe occasions, and for a variety of cases. In all occasions we got the outcome we are looking for. In my eyes Konrad is a life saver.

ATTORNEY REVIEW
Since my initial consultation with Mr. Jarzyna, he is aware that I am on a fixed income due to a permanent disability. My case involved receiving a large amount of money owed to me via a Decree signed by the Master Attorney assigned to my case. The Master Attorney stated and my attorney reiterated that the amount of money owed to me stated in the Court Decree must be placed in my bank account within 30 days from the date of the Master Hearing (September 10, 2018) and if not placed in my bank account on the 31st day after the said hearing (October 10, 2018) the Sheriff of Berks County will serve a warrant on the Defendant and take him into custody. It is now approximately three years since I hired Mr. Jarzyna as my attorney and four months since the Decree was issued for the Defendant to return my money, and I have not received the money owed to me, nor have I heard from Mr. Jarzyna even after leaving a number of voicemails. Six months in from retaining Mr. Jarzyna, each time I tried to contact him, no one at his law firm answers the phone and I leave a voicemail. I wait at least 3-4 months each time with no contact from Mr. Jarzyna, by telephone call, text, email, or letter, and I leave 2 or 3 voicemails. At least two times of which I am aware, he was out of the country for personal reasons. He did not notify me or the Berks County Bar Association, and did not arrange for another attorney to cover his sole practice. Both times he was out of the country the telephone was not answered and I left numerous voicemails. I have been contacted by him via USPS only when a court hearing was ordered by the judge and/or master attorney. I am extremely disappointed in Mr. Jarzyna, and I cannot in good faith give Mr. Jarzyna a good review, or refer anyone to his practice.

No help.
Konrad Jarzyna's office arranged a phone conference for the next evening to discuss my situation. I waited all night but nobody called, so I can't review anything other than that fact.
