The Best

I consulted recently with Sterling Attorneys on an employment issue. To my surprise, I spoke with Ray Sterling on my first call. He reviewed my documents in one day and provided sound legal advice that brought my case to a successful conclusion. You can trust Ray Sterling and his associates to handl...e your legal needs quickly and with professionalism. I highly recommend them.

YOU WIN

The best! Corporations are so familiar with Sterling's skill that now they will often settle instead of facing him in court. Up against a team of 10 NYC lawyers, Sterling won big for me and taught the corporation a lesson. . .now they will think twice before doing harm. Going to court is emotiona...lly difficult but Ray was always Patient and Compassionate - i dont think I could have continued otherwise - especially as i loved my profession so much and my spirit was already shattered by the shameful treatment by my former employer. Before and during the trial, the corporation. tried even more cruel and sneaky tricks to keep me silent. Ray stopped them in their tracks and gave me not only an enormous award by the jury - but peace of mind and a way to continue in the work i loved so much. Previously, Other lawyers would not touch my case as it was too complicated and against a corporation that others thought could not be beat. . .but Ray beat them - BIG. As my friend said, he gave them a "San Quentin style spanking" that was much deserved. Ray Sterling is a one of a kind genius of law and a superstar of the courtroom. Charming, honest, gentle, brilliant, and insightful with the law - Sterling treats everyone with respect - even as he teaches them a lesson. Ray Sterling is not "just an attorney" - he is a Hero..

Employment Law

Sterling Associates handled my case in a very timely manner, and at a price that was reasonable. The knowledge and professionalism of the staff on Employment Law exceeded expectations. I will be returning to them in the future when seeking future legal advice or counsel.

Brilliant and Compassionate

Ray Sterling has been my legal counsel in an employment related matter for the past few months. "Brilliance", "Sophisticated aggression" and "Compassion" are the three words that come to my mind when I reflect on all our interactions and Ray truly is a personification of all these qualities. I will b...e honest - as someone who has never worked with a legal counsel all my life, I was quite apprehensive as to whether to even embark on this process. But Ray made me feel very comfortable right from our first meeting and his ability to quickly understand the nuances of my case and develop our strategy and approach plan and of course his negotiation skills ensured that we got a successful outcome. I have no hesitation in saying that I made the right choice in having Ray Sterling as my attorney - for it was him who ensured the successful outcome for which I am truly grateful.

Instilled Confidence

I had interviewed three attorneys that included Ray Sterling. He set himself apart from the others in the beginning by being honest in his answers and up front of the challenges facing me with a non compete contract I had with my last employer. It was many months after that conversation in which I c...ontracted Ray Sterling to do my bidding for me. He set the tone early on with expectations to both parties, he never wavered on my behalf and reached a very fair settlement for me and my family. My future employment was secured that allowed me to practice my craft in an industry of 34 years after that as well. I am truly grateful to Raymond Sterling and his law offices. I would encourage anyone no matter how far under the bus they feel they may be, to reach out and contact him. He will drag you out, dust you off and send you on your way feeling whole again. His experience, professionalism and manner are inviting and comfortable. This is a great man and I will be grateful to him for a long time to come.
