Keep your eye on the big picture

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.

"Barak Lurie and I have known each other for over 20 years. A few years ago, we worked together closely on a couple of real estate and business litigation matters. I was impressed by the leadership he showed in his law firm, the high quality of work produced on behalf of his clients, his ability to develop strategies early on in a case, and his uncompromising ethics.

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.
