This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.
| Consulted Attorney
Carolyn Ford JD
I thank/recommend MincLaw/Ms.Carolyn Ford JD with the highest regards for the assistance that they provided in helping me with 2 horrific false reviews on yelp.Yelp had constructed a business page for “my benefit”.When I checked the page I saw a vicious 1 star false review from a person for whom I have no medical record/billing record. The review was horrific.My attempts to contact this pt thru the yelp website was fruitless. My lawyer had no expertise in internet defamation.I found Minclaw which specializes in internet defamation.I was assigned Ms C Ford JD. who did an OUTSTANDING job with the above review.I also had an another nasty review from a yelp reviewer with 156 mostly 1 star reviews with hostile false statements. Ms. Ford contacted this person and after intense back and forth with this reviewer, she deleted her review. Yelp is a NIGHTMARE. Your only course of action is to deal directly with the reviewer for which you need a law firm that specializes in internet defamation.

Best defamation lawyer!
Out of all the attorneys that “specialize” in defamatory information removal, Mr. Aaron Minc was the only one that offered the solution: actual removal of the content, not just “masking” it by flooding the Internet with other information. He was also very efficient and successful: the actual defamatory content was successfully removed within 1 week. There was still a lot of “cleaning up” to do afterwards and Mr. Minc offered his assistance and guidance every step of the way. Mr. Minc was always very understanding, patient and courteous with me. I would highly recommend Mr. Minc to anyone who is looking to remove negative content off of Internet. I am extremely thankful for his great job! A huge part of my life has been reinstated and I have been able to move forward successfully in my career and my personal life. Thank you Mr. Minc and your team!

Amazing Results!
Aaron, I was extremely satisfied with your help in what was a very unjust event. My situation involved a false arrest followed by damaging news articles. Though the courts dismissed my case and ordered my records expunged, several large law firms and well-known internet reputation sites told me that a removal of online news articles would be impossible. You and your firm’s approach however was successful! A big part of my life has been restored through your services, and I have been able to move forward successfully in both my career and personal life. Just as important, I trust you and your firm. You respected me as a client, and assured me, without making superficial promises that you would do all you could to rectify the situation. Thank you!

Best Possible Outcome for My Case
Hire Aaron Minc! He achieved 100% success for me in less than a month. There was an embarrassing news article posted online about a legal incident I was involved in that, thankfully, ended up being dismissed in court. The article mentioned personal information, and since the case was dismissed, it was devastating. After less than a month, Mr. Minc and his team had the article removed from search engines. I couldn't have been happier with their understanding of the situation, their professionalism, and the speed in which they resolved the issue. If you are facing a similar situation, hire Mr. Minc. I understood there was no guarantee of complete removal, though in my case, there was 100% success. Great start to the new year! Thank you Aaron and Team.

Defamation Lawyer
Aaron Minc was a pleasure to work with. I had several bad posts on a website that was posted by my ex-boyfriend and ex-friend. These posts were interfering with my work. My employers informed me that they all the bad post had to be removed or else I would lose my employment. I contacted Mr. Minc and he immediately worked with me to remove the posts. The posts were removed immediately and I was able to save my job. He was able to remove 5-6 negative posts on a website with in one day. The problem was resolved instantly. He is responsive, cooperative and efficient. I would highly recommend this lawyer to anyone that is looking to remove negative content on google or seeking a defamation lawyer.

We are so thankful to retain Mr Minc!!!
Our family was the subject of an Internet slander campaign. The content posted by the perpetrator was horrific and he used the cloak of the "deep web" and other tools to hide his identity. He even hacked into our computer and social media accounts. The amount of content was extensive and we didn't know who could possibly perform such heinous acts or if we would ever identify him/them. Enter Aaron Minc. We found Mr Minc through an Internet search and are so glad we did! Mr Minc is a tenacious advocate for his clients. He took on our cause as his. He and his team were not only able to eliminate the slanderous content from the Internet but were more importantly able to identify the perpetrator and bring him to justice. I would not hesitate to hire Mr Minc again!

In my experience, Aaron richly deserves his national standing in defamation law, reputation repair and related fields.
My business and reputation were severely impacted by a series of false and defamatory Rip-Off Reports. Aaron led the effort to prepare and obtain a court order to sever all links to these reports and republications. He knows this field like no other. I am extremely thankful for his great work. And his fee structure is more than fair. I myself am a litigator, but I did not know my way around this highly specialized field. Aaron knew how to obtain the proper court order, and what language it needed to pass muster with the search engines. He always took my calls, responded promptly to my emails and correctly predicted the search engines' timing. I did not know Aaron beforehand. He is in Cleveland and I am in NYC. I chose Aaron after performing a detailed internet search and having an extensive conference with him. He was patient, highly knowledgeable and very informative. I have never written a testimonial like this. But Aaron and his staff deserve it. Aaron was able to secure the elimination of ALL search-engine links to the multiple offending Rip-Off Reports and republications.

Got Results in Removing Defamation without Court Action
I hired Aaron Minc because the representative of a noted organization without investigating facts defamed me on a prominent website and then refused to retract or apologize when presented with the facts that they were wrong. I selected Mr. Minc because he was the only lawyer I approached who studied the facts before I hired him. The others just told me how hard it is to win defamation suits. Mr. Minc took the approach that with persistence we should be able to educate the other side (including their lawyers) before rushing into court. The other side did eventually come around to our point of view. I was impressed by how quickly Mr. Minc grasped the many subtle issues and how kindly he guided me through a very stressful time. With Mr. Minc's negotiations, the other side finally removed its entire defamatory posting.

Slanderous BLOG removals
At the advice of another attorney and upon researching Lawyers who specialized in on-line slander and defamations cases I retained Mr. Minc to have certain BLOGS removed from the internet that were falsely defaming me. The process was precise and methodical and Mr. Minc, over the course of approximately 90 days as he originally quoted to me, successfully had all the BLOGS, their content and listings removed from the internet. I am 100% satisfied with the work performed by Mr. Minc and his office and highly reccomend retaining him to anyone who has been or is a victim of on-line slander and defamation. "The perception of guilt or wrong doing when listed on-line is a terrible thing for anyone to have to experience and the ability of Mr. Minc and such experienced and ethical perons as himself are a valuable asset to the preservation on the integrity of any individual who has suffered the abuse of social media blight!" My thanks to Mr. Minc and his staff for staring down this ever growing problem with the abuse of social media and weapon and disarming it and the people who use it this way!

An expert in his niche
We could not be more pleased with Aaron's representation. He clearly explained our legal alternatives from the outset of the process and then efficiently executed the plan and delivered on all fronts. He is professional, an excellent communicator, and very responsive. Aaron is the "go to" expert in the world of internet defamation.

The Best in the Business!
I found Aaron Minc on the internet as someone who removes postings on blogs that are defammatory to someone personally and professionally. In today's world, social media has taken over all forms of communication and makes it easy for people to say anything they want about someone, true or not true. I contacted many different companies before finding Aaron and only got results from Aaron Minc. I was made many promises from various companies about how successful their work would be but nobody actually got the job done - but Aaron got the job done. His price was fair and comparable yet he was able to get the postings I needed removed taken down - within a reasonable time frame. Living and working in Syracuse was not easy until Aaron stepped in and got everything removed that was disparaging. I highly recommend Aaron Minc.

Delivered What He Promised and WIll Save My Company Tens of Thousands of Dollars
Two years ago an ex-employee demanded we pay him $150,000 or he was going to absolutely ruin our business so that we would have to change our name and industry. I had never heard of sites such as ripoffreport.com and pissedconsumer.com but I quickly found out when this guy went on a tirade posting to dozens of these sites slanderous and horribly detrimental lies about me, my company and our intentions. I quickly found out that potential employees and customers truly believe what they read on the internet no matter how crazy it sounds. We paid tens of thousands of dollars to these reputation sites that promise to push the links back into the search engines but to no avail. I then went to contacting attorneys that specialize in this type of law and several of them were no better than the ex-employee that tried to extort us in the first place or the reputation "fixers" that took our money up front but delivered ZERO results. Finally, I came across Aaron Minc and had an initial consultation. While his method of going about having the links removed from search engines would take some time and preparation it made sense to me. It was a breath of fresh air to hear somebody that didn't promise me the world without being able to deliver but was realistic about what I could expect and what had to be done. At this time, Aaron in conjunction with my corporate attorney have had google remove over 60 of these review site links from the search engines. When you google my company name now it is all positive. I am so happy with the results. It is a game changer for my business. To think that anybody can write anything about you or your business on the internet and it can be misunderstood as true is mind boggling to me. I am glad that I have Aaron on my team so that this won't hinder my business in the future.
