My Experience for Future Applicants to Consider

Ben Rothman initially agreed to take on my case regarding issues with my former employer and appeared to understand the circumstances and concerns I presented. However, when I was finally ready to move forward, communication completely stopped. Despite leaving voicemails, sending emails, and makin...g multiple attempts to follow up, I received no response. A simple update, even if he no longer wished to take the case, would have been appreciated and would have demonstrated basic professional courtesy. I understand attorneys are often busy and may choose not to proceed with certain cases, but clients deserve clear communication. Being left without any response after discussions had already taken place was both frustrating and disappointing. My father was an attorney, and one thing he always emphasized was treating people with respect and keeping them informed. Unfortunately, that was not my experience here. Based on my personal experience, for a man and a lawyer who's been in business this long, if responsiveness and communication are important to you, I would recommend looking elsewhere for legal representation.

Best Employment and Labor Lawyer for us!

We hired Atty. Ben for an employment and labor case against a very high end well known celebrity and he did win my husband's case within a year. Atty Ben is very hardworking and he quickly answers all our questions, his approach is very professional and personal at the same time. He is a very hones...t lawyer and will tell you if you have a case or not. We are thankful for his dedication to his work regarding the case that is why my husband received the justice he deserved with his labor and employment case against his prominent employer.

Great Lawyer

I had a crazy case, with a pass employer, Ben was welling to taken on the case, He was not willing to take no for an answer, He was welling to throw the punches, I felt like he was the best choice for me and my case. I would not go with anyone else. Very well rounded, answered all my questions, rolle...d with the punches, well spoken, want to bat for me and my case, when it came time for offters on my case he was not letting them try to low ball me. In the end I just wanted to say Thank You, I could have not asked for anything better.

Very thorough and willing to answer any questions

I consulted with Ben a few times while deciding on an attorney. He was very easy to get ahold of and always willing to answer any questions I had. He was very thorough in his explanation of things and very easy to talk to. I ultimately decided on representation closer to where I lived but I know Ben ...would have been a great choice as well. You will be in good hands with him.
