Supreme Court Ruled again Mr. Sacks

In a November Supreme Court ruling , they found Mr. Sacks as "ineffective Counsel", in 3 areas of my case. We hired him in 2009. He started off efficient, ended up DEFICIENT. It was a nightmare. He was quite sidetracked with other matters. Had too many cases. Doesn't win that much anymore. All abo...ut plea deals. Withheld expert information from me and my paying Mom. Information that we paid for. He will never go after the Cops Investigations or Prosecution to establish reasonable doubt. He is so much more. I will not repeat. Please don't Be swayed by his long past successes. He cost me 7 years of my life. He is my far, the biggest mistake I ever made , hiring him. Won't return calls, cares about his money more than his clients. Stay Away. You have been warned.

One of the good guys

Amazing! Awesome! And wow! When it comes to a person freedom, it's such a tough decision which lowyer should be the one to represent the case in the best way possible. My friend case was very complicated and difficult, lucky for us we had Andrew sacks on our side. He took this case very seriously an...d really made a miracle happen. If you need a lowyer this is your guy!!! Thank you Andrew, you really made me a believer in the justice system, and I will forever be Greatfull for your help! Good luck with your cases and I hope you'll win always ⭐️

Saved the day

Mr sacks represented me and I was very happy with the outcome of my case. He made sure I know what was taking place at all times and always returned my calls.

Miracle worker

I hired sacks for my case, immediately he went to work to make sure I was protected and that I would get the best results. If I ever was to need a lawyer again he the first to call

Wish we had known.....

Mr Sacks is a very well mannered lawyer. So much so that when he is up against a tough prosecutor or Judge that he admires, he will not be your advocate. He instead tells his client how this or that is just not done in the legal system. He is constantly boasting about how hard he works, his office e...tc but things just continue to slip under the table. His office staff is amazing but there are just not enough hours in the day to appropriately accomplish all the work he takes on and therefore he misses many things that he was suppose to do for his clients. He always takes your calls and will listen but don't think for a minute that he remembers 1/2 of what you asked him to do. In total agreement with the review dated Feb 18, 2017. We will forever be saddened by our choice of counsel.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
