Highly recommend lawyer Brett.

My car had a problem since I purchased the car, and I was trying to fix it by visiting 3 different dealerships, but at last, they could not figure out the sources of problem. The problem was that RPM was fluctuating and then the engine was stalling when I completely stopped the vehicle. It was quite ...dangerous when I was not aware of shutting the engine off. So, at the moment, I thought this is the lemon law problem, and I started to research any lawyer who is good at this matter. I googled it, and I found lawyer Brett shainfeld. I read lots of reviews and testimonials, and I contacted him with no hesitation. When I contacted him, he was very nice and kind to inform me what kinds of documents I should prepared, and any consequences after the settlement. Just follow what he asks you to do. After I sent over all the documents, he released the letter to the Mazda corporation about the settlement. I waited about a month to get a response from the Mazda, and finally they offered me initial settlement agreement. I kinda liked the way it is, but lawyer Brett never stopped it from there. He made a counter offer to the Mazda, and I got much better settlement agreement because of him! ( I won't mention the actual amount of settlement). I would highly recommend him to anyone who is having a problem with lemon car law. He is knowledgeable and respectful to his clients. I would definitely contact him if I ever have to do this again.

Top notch lemon law attorney

All I can say about Mr. Shainfeld is that he is aggressive, responsive and always available. He would respond to my calls and emails always the same day and usually within the hour. He understood the problems with my vehicle and why they posed a safety risk to me and my family. He was able to expl...ain these safety risks to Mercedes Benz and force them to take back my car. The other lemon law attorneys I spoke with only cared about the vehicle and not how these problems were affecting me and my family, some of these other attorneys did not even think I had a case as my problems were supposedly not severe enough. I am thankful Mr. Shainfeld understood my concerns and truly listened to me. I definitely recommend Mr. Shainfeld and Shainfeld & Anvar to anyone who has any legal problems, especially if they are relating to their vehicle.

Extremely Effecient Lemon Law Attourney

I purchased a brand new luxury vehicle that only seemed to give me trouble. Not only was it back at the dealership being serviced every month, it was extremely unsafe. Brett was attentive, understanding and efficient- he was able to contact the manufacturer and get me a replacement vehicle that didn'...t incur any of the previous problems. I appreciated Brett's no nonsense attitude and the efficiency that came with it. When i felt as if i had no where to turn, Brett took the matter into his own hands and saved the day.

Breach of Warranty Claim

Brett was very knowledgeable and kept me informed at every step of the process while he was representing me. I would recommend him to anyone I know needing this type of attorney.
