Alan is a great professional to work with. He helped me with an expungement process that Tim Johnston was originally working with me through. I was in a bad mental state when trying to deal with the issues at hand, and this man helped me to pull through on top. I can now further my future and continue my education with a clean record. I really could not be any more grateful. The entire staff is organized, caring, and understanding 100%. If you want someone who is really going to take care of you, I would suggest coming to Alan or anyone working in this firm. I will never forget the interaction and services that I’ve been provided with here.

I highly recommend Alan Lenczycki and his firm (Johnston, Tomei, Lenczycki, & Goldberg). I had first met with Alan on a consultation, and he was upfront, honest, professional, and give me his advice as to how he would handle the case. After the consultation, I retained Alan and he started working on my case immediately. Alan is extremely responsive and clear in all of his communication (phone/email), and I was always up to speed with where he was at with the case. Since day one, all of my expectations were met and Alan did a phenomenal job navigating through this case. This particular case was a matter of returning specific property back to me. Though the property value was minimal, Alan treated the case as any other and put together a strong and compelling case. In the end, Alan won the case and I couldn’t be happier. Thank you, Alan!

I had violated my probation with a new case abd my girlfriend went and got a consultation with Johnston Tomei Lenczycki and Goldberg, LLC. She immediately knew that this was the help that we needed. They seemed very focused on getting me released and fought for me the whole time. Alan was the attorney that spearheaded my case and not one time did he seem unmotivated. The process was drawn out and lasted a few months. Ultimately Alan got me more than I deserved because right now I should be in prison. I can't give this man enough praise and if I have ANY other legal problems I know exactly who I'll go to. There's a lot of security in knowing you don't have to search for a lawyer anymore. I just hope I wont need him.

I hired Alan in April and was divorced within a few months. He was extremely helpful and prompt to call back if he wasn’t available at the moment. He was always on time to court and for appointments. More importantly, he was always prepared. I would recommend him to anyone and will use him again in the future. Highly recommended.

I had Alan Lenczycki represent me in court today for a traffic offense. Alan's skillful negotiations got me cleared with a couple months supervision and $75 fine with court costs. I highly recommend Alan if you're looking for a knowledgeable, friendly and honest attorney

Alan is a great lawyer. He is very professional and always answers the questions I have in a very timely manner. He works hard for your case and gives you many options in the direction you should go with your case. He fought very hard for me and got me exactly what I wanted out of my divorce. He trys to get your case done as soon as possible and with little amount of money spent. I would recommend him to anybody who may be going through a divorce. He's a great lawyer and very friendly and understanding.
