Posted by Abigail | April 30, 2018 | Consulted Attorney

This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

Very understanding

I had several conversations with attorney Baskin and found him to be very understanding and knowledgable. I found him easy to talk to and very kind when I discussed some things that occured during my childhood.

I would not use him again - do not like his tactics

I would not recommend this attorney due to many problems I had with him. If you want a pit bull, he might be your guy. But not all legal issues require a pit bull, or pit bully. He distorted my claim to make it more inflamatory. He claimed he would "make a big statement" but that we would just s...ettle for much less. He turned a minor legal dispute in to a major issue that ran up my legal bill. The problem is he accused my former partner of fraud and forgery, which was not my claim. I was shocked when I saw what he had accused my former client of. His work was also sloppy. He missed my name in his letters to opposing counsel, and appeared to be confusing my case with another. It was pretty disturbing. I had instructed him to settle the case to what a viewed as a reasonable offer, then found out he had already rejected it. I eventually settled for what amounted to less just to stop my dealings with him.

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.
