One Of The Very Best...

Ms. Slavkin has represented me a number of times in business-related matters. I have had considerable experience with lawyers over the years, and would rate her among the best on a number of levels. Of the matters she has had to litigate for me, I have found her knowledgeable, scrupulously honest... in her billings, well-prepared and a force to be reckoned with. She is undefeated relative to those matters. In other matters, she has successfully avoided what would otherwise be expensive litigation in favor of a more practical negotiated approach which, in each instance, solved my problem without "leaving anything" on the negotiating table. In those rare instances when my needs have been outside her scope of expertise, she was able to refer me to competent counsel, and continued to monitor that matter nevertheless. I no longer look anywhere else when looking for legal counsel. I heartily recommend her.

Compassion +Passion = Wendy Slavkin

Wendy Slavkin has ben my attorney for close to 18 years. She had come highly recommended to me by a prominent attorney and has been an invaluable member of my professional team advising me on a wide range of business related legal issues. A couple of years ago I saw her in action as she defended me i...n a jury trial in a malicious, meritless employee termination case. She professionally, systematically, and impressively dismantled the prosecutions case and won a decisive judgment in my favor. Over the years, I have recommended Wendy to numerous friends who, like myself, have come to rely on her without reservation. She really is a special kind of person and lawyer.
