Exceptional lawyers and human beings

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.

Call them lions instead of lawyers

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.

Excellent Legal Representation/5⭐️

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!
