Whitney D. Ackerman

Whitney Ackerman and Shuki Greer are extraordinary lawyers and human beings. They are extremely knowledgeable about landlord/tenant laws and their personalities are perfect for attorneys; they are firm and professional with opposing counsel and parties, and kind, patient, and understanding with clien...ts. They responded quickly and clearly to my emails, texts, calls and questions. They truly seemed to care about me as a person and the effect the resolution of the lawsuit would have on me, and they unselfishly resolved the matter in my best interests. I highly recommend them both individually and as a superb team.

We hired another attorney from Mr Ackerman's firm to represent us (a family) in a suit against a large corporation. When that attorney took paternity leave Mr Ackerman and his team took over representing us. They were barely communicative at all. When I appeared at the courthouse for jury duty I requ...ested the court provide us with all documents related to the case. One of those documents appeared to be missing a page. After more than a week of trying to reach Mr Ackerman's team about it, I finally got to speak w Mr Ackerman by phone to ask him if the missing page was an error or if perhaps it had been filed separately. Instead of answering my question Mr Ackerman began to lecture me about "calling me about every single document I file" (even though I had never contacted him about such a thing before) and worked himself into frenzy, barely allowing me to speak. He told me that he thought we should end our working relationship. Yes. You read all of that right. My wife and I never treated Mr Ackerman with anything but the utmost professionalism and respect. I asked one (1) question and he blew up, leaving us in an even worse position than we were before we hired him...without representation in the middle of a case against a massive corporate landlord...in the middle of the holidays. Merry Christmas.

I don’t even know where to begin with how highly I recommend Whitney Ackerman and Shuki Greer. When I first reached out to them it was an extremely traumatic time, we were being forced to leave our place of residency and being subjected to a very dangerous and toxic living situation. We were looking ...for someone to trust and help us know our rights, but these two men became more like our lions than our lawyers. They took the burden of the fight off of our shoulders, were patient and understanding about the emotional toll the experience had taken on us, and got us what we deserved. No matter how long the case took or how exhaustive it was they NEVER lost their fire to fight for us, for what was right, and absolutely refused to back down. We are forever grateful for their strength, clarity, and dedication.

There are not enough good words to say about this amazing attorney!!I retained Mr. Ackerman as my attorney around this me last year. It was the BEST Christmas present that I ever gave to myself!! Mr. Ackerman represented me for both an illegal evicon filed against me by my landlord, and a harassmen...t suit filed against my landlord by me. Off the top of his head he knew every law, ordinance, statute, policy, etc., that would be conducive to a positive outcome for me! He is intelligent, articulate, knowledgeable, precise and thorough. He is like a lion protecting a cub. He had my best interests at heart. He guided me through every step of the process, from signing documents to meeng deadlines to considering settlement offers. He never grew weary. Mr. Ackerman stayed in constant contact with me. He answered pretty much every phone call. If he was in a meeting or in court, he would text me to tell me the approximate me that he would call me back. He replied to emails expeditiously. He even called and emailed after hours and on weekends! To say that Mr. Ackerman is the lawyer of all lawyers would be, and is an understatement. Although I hope to never have an issue with a landlord again, I feel secure in knowing that Mr. Ackerman is just a phone call away!

One year ago, I was the victim of a brutal assault, due to the neglect by the landlord, to maintain the safety of his tenants. I needed a law firm whose expertise covers criminal, civil, and landlord/tenant law; and fortunately… I was referred to the law firm of Whitney D. Ackerman. Whitney quickly... accessed the information I sent to him ; and wasted no time building a case - along with his two associates: Shuki Greer and Jason Ingebar. After the horrific experience I went through - my legal team always made made sure, that I knew how much my case mattered to them. Their work was exceptionally thorough; and their genuine kindness and generosity - supported me through a legal process I had no prior experience with. Moreover, I’m very happy with the settlement, which was recently negotiated by Whitney and Shuki. You’ll have my heartfelt gratitude always!
