This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

Consultation

I reached out to Seth and asked him to review the agreement that my employer wanted me to sign. Seth was extremely professional and knowledgeable. He returned my call within few minutes and clearly explained what he needs from me for his advice/consultation. Later the same day he reviewed the agreeme...nt I sent him, made some suggestions and sent the agreement back to me. Seth also called me in the evening, to make sure I understood his recommendations and to answer any questions I had. Overall his consultation was very professional and helpful in my situation.

Amazing lawyer!

We had to hire a lawyer with regards to defending a civil restraining order which was filed just to harass us....that’s when we consulted and hired Seth...he is immensely knowledgeable and very practical...listens to you and remains fact based which is highly necessary in such cases...the verdict wen...t in our favor...we can’t thank Seth enough for his help and moral support during this whole situation....

Litigation lawyer | Feb 13

Relationship: Co-worker

"I endorse this lawyer. I worked with Seth for several years and saw first-hand his dedication to his clients. Seth is an incredibly talented legal mind and a great writer. He is also fair and honest with his client. I even referred my own grandfather to him for a civil litigation case. The practice of law needs more attorneys like him."

Insurance lawyer | Feb 07

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I refer my clients to Seth. He is an outstanding lawyer who is conscientious of his clients' needs and extremely responsive. I recently referred him a matter where the clients needed to have a complaint on file the very next day. Seth dropped everything to fully immerse himself in the case that day and made sure the clients rights were protected by filing a lawsuit first thing the next morning. I would not hesitate to refer additional clients to him in the future."
