Barak Lurie

I went to Barak because the lessor of my medical equipment sued me for the full value of the equipment I returned -- even though only a short time had passed and everything was in working order. It was a huge amount. Barak and his team went to work and were able to negotiate a fantastic settlement ...-- at just a fraction of the value--and payable over 5 years! I could not have been more pleased! Best yet -- we reached the settlement early, before spending tens of thousands of dollars in legal fees. My husband and I have tremendous confidence in Barak. You will not find a more competent professional. Thank you, Barak!

I came to Mr. Lurie because someone defrauded me for an investment of $500,000. Barak was able to negotiate a quick settlement with a wonderful result. Not only did I get my money back but he really gave me the assurances that I needed through out the process. He was even able to recover back interes...t and a big chunk of our attorney fees! Barak is a responsive and intelligent business attorney and I highly recommend him.

I have known Barak Lurie for 18 years and he has been my personal attorney for 15 years. The cases he has handled for me have been complex and required execptional strategic vision. In each instance, I was very pleased with the outcome and with the attorney/client relationship. I have always fou...nd Barak Lurie's fees to be reasonable for the work performed, and in every instance fully disclosed. I recomend Barak to any of my freinds who might need an experienced business attorney.

I know why I initiated my lawsuit, and what I expected from legal action. My initial plan with my first attorney just wasn't working, and I felt like I just didn't have the defendants’ attention. That's when I decided to switch to a more aggressive posture. Once Barak Lurie decided to accept... my case, he was in it to win it. His team went right to work for me and kept me informed along the way, asking for my agreement, opinions or guidance with his recommended actions or responses. That boost of confidence helped me focus on my responsibilities so I wasn’t emotionally burdened while maintaining my daily life. I usually deferred to his recommendation, but at least I knew what my options were and also, what the risks were. This knowledge kept me sane during the quiet times while waiting on responses from the opposing parties. It also helped me sleep well at night, without the stress of freaking out because I wasn't sure of the probabilities of the outcome. Keeping a normal lifestyle during a lawsuit helped me focus on the big picture, and why I was involved in this lawsuit in the first place. Of course we won our case, but the job wasn’t done yet. Collecting is another matter, and this is when the real fun kicked in. There’s just something about listening to Lurie plead the defendants case options, and then shred them by citing strategies and anticipations, along with legal rules governing the defense’s actions and motions. I wanted a Bulldog approach after first seeing the defendants wiggle and stall to buy time and drag out the case. Lurie and his team got me that and more. I couldn’t be more proud than to be part of case law now, based upon legal arguments put before the court. That’s very powerful when the court agrees with you and sets precedent after the defendants try anything they can to cloud the issues. When you’re in the wrong, those arguments just don’t hold water. I count on Lurie to expose those faulty arguments and drain the swamp.

My client had a piece of machinery that was wrought with defects. The manufacturer insisted that my client was at fault and didn't perform the proper maintenance.By astutely recognizing the issues and incorporating expert testimony, Lurie induced the manufacturer to pay a substantial amount for lost ...profits and even removed the equipment. It was a great outcome to a difficult situation. I have already recommended him to others.
