This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

best lawyer around

Mr. Blank has handled an employment case for me. He was very supported of me and had a positive attitude. He explained in detail and simple words the process involved. Called frequently to keep me up to date. Always read all documents before I signed anything. he found loop-holes missed by the opp...osition. He treated me like family.

Exceptional legal advice, highly recommend

I was referred to Jeff from a very close friend that had previously hired him in a similar situation, and assured me I would be more than satisfied with his legal service. From start to finish, Mr. Blank provided me with exceptional legal assistance with invaluable advice regarding my business disput...e and drafting any contracts I needed. Jeff's exceptional legal service, combined with his thoroughness and attention to detail, put my mind at ease during such a difficult time. I can't thank Jeff enough for not only what he did for me, but for my business and my family. If you are involved in any legal situation, I would highly recommend hiring Jeff as your legal counsel.

Mr. Blank is a great attorney.

Jeff represented our family in a lawsuit with a large bank and did a great job. He is very professional and honest. I would do business with him again.

Outstanding Attorney

Jeff Blank delivers results. He is extremely savvy, well-prepared and strategic; out-lawyering his opponent at every turn. I am extremely pleased with his work on several cases he has handled for my business.

A Winning Lawyer

I have used Mr Blank twice. He was very efficient, organized and prompt. He was always on time when we had an appointment. He was detailed in his paperwork. He turned around a losing case to a winning case! He did indebt research. Mr. Blank is a true professional and made me comfortable .

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
