WASTE OF TIME

I don't know where to begin. He is a leach who is just after your money. Does not know anything and he is always behind and do not remember anything all he does dump his work to his assistant who is dumber than him. I was fooled by his consultation and hired him and after 11 months had to fire h...im. he did not do a single thing and only sent bills after bills and wasted my time for entire year. please do not let him to fool you. go somewhere else and you will be better off on your own than this charlatan!

Professional, Effective, and Knowledgeable Attorney

Mr. Lazarus is an exceptionally professional attorney. His legal experience was evident from the start and he walked my family and I through our motor vehicle accident case and health-related follow-ups with patience and expertise. I would gladly and highly recommend him to anyone seeking legal couns...el.

Gary is very thorough and easy to work with

I want to take this opportunity to recommend the services of The Law Offices of Lazarus and Lazarus, P.A. Mr. Lazarus has represented me and has provided legal advice for the past 12 years as my attorney. His knowledge and attention to detail aided in settling my case against a fortune 100 uniform c...ompany. It was not difficult to prove my injuries, however, the company I was fighting against fought back and tried to disprove that their driver was at fault or that my injuries were not severe. My case was settled before going to trial. I was very pleased with the outcome of my case. I feel confident in recommending Mr. Lazarus’s law firm and legal services. He is not only thorough, but also easy to work with, and is always willing to take the time to discuss concerns and respond to questions. Regards, Heidi

  • 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.
