Outstanding Attorney - Fought and Won Against All Odds

Matthew J. Militzok and his team represented my parents in a complex lawsuit that stretched over seven years, enduring courthouse shutdowns during COVID and constant opposition from the condominium association and its insurance company. The case was considered "unwinnable" by many. Despite this, Mili...tzok's dedication, thorough research, and exceptional professionalism led to a victory beyond our expectations. Our issue began with severe leaks and mold infiltrating my parents' apartment, rendering it unlivable. Although we won an earlier lawsuit with another attorney, the condo failed to make repairs, and the problem worsened. The condominium argued they were no longer liable, but Militzok and Associates took on the case and navigated every dirty trick thrown at us by a team of defense lawyers trying to have the case dismissed. Thanks to Militzok's unyielding commitment and legal talent, we won a six-figure compensation that covered damages and legal fees. The condominium was finally held accountable and has since replaced the roof and fully restored the apartment from the ground up. Matthew J. Militzok and his team genuinely care about their clients and demonstrate an unmatched level of expertise and dedication. They fought hard for us and achieved what many thought was impossible. We are grateful beyond words and highly recommend them to anyone in need of an outstanding legal team.

The BEST attorney in town!

For years I was fighting the HOA in my condo rental unit that was uninhabitable due to water emanating from upstairs. I hired a forensic building inspector, Mr. Jeff Hooper who wrote a comprehensive report that indicated the building problems. Yes, it did take years to resolve because it is a process... that the HOA and insurance companies delay intentionally while denying there was a problem. When the defense attorneys inspected my condo unit Mr. Militzok was there to observe the process. Mr. Militzok won a sizable settlement which shocked me. I provided detailed communication with everybody involved that included face-to-face meetings, emails, telephone calls and pictures over time. The plaintiff must do their part as He said/she said does not stand up in court. Supporting documentation wins the case along with a knowledgeable attorney like Mr. Matthew Militzok. I provided the documentation and Mr. Militzok went to work. There was no need to constantly call Mr. Militzok and bug him as all comes together in due time. Most litigants call the attorney constantly wanting to know what's happening, this can be annoying for attorneys. This is the first time I sued an entity, but I knew annoying the attorney constantly is not the way to go. When any attorney has information, the attorney will contact the client with an update. I feel we worked well together. Yes, it did take a couple of years, but Mr. Militzok got the job done, well done. Litigants must have patience. The few times I spoke with Mr. Militzok he was available and ready to listen. I could not have asked for a better attorney! Thank you, Mr. Militzok and your associates/team.

Months and months wasted

I signed a contract in may with Matthew Militzok. Hos assistant Emily was in charge of my case. She rately answered my e-mails and the times she did it took her almost two weeks. Communication was extremely hard. I tried calling the office but my messages were never returned. The property manager cam...e to my apartment to inspect a leak and told ne that he did not receive any information from my lawyer. I had sent many e mails to be forward to the association and it was never sent. Recently, after five months, I was able to get a hold of Emily and stated my concern. The lawyer was scheduled to talk to me by Emily. Instead, just sent me a letter dropping my case. 5 months of my time completely wasted. I never dealt with a law firm so disorganized and unprofessional!!!

Negligent and Failed to even read our emails and Docs

We had to hire another lawyer to fix their mess. They dropped the ball on a slam dunk case. We had multiple floods which were the HOA's responsibility. Matt's team failed to even read the documents we sent and couldn't do the simple math of accounting for our expenses. In the end, they dropped the ba...ll and failed to include HVAC costs which is now a huge liability for us. When we asked that they fix the mess they created, Matt tried to send us a bill. We had to hire another lawyer to fix their mess.
