Credit Debt lawsuit

Thank you for the assistance. Zev was professional and courteous. He helped facilitate the whole legal paperwork process which fortunately never made it to court. This was a great burden lifted from me which probably wouldn't have hsppened had a lawyer not been willing to step up and assist.

Great lawyer! Highly recommend him.

First of all I want to say thank you to Zev for all the help and for making my experience working with him easy and trustworthy. Zev had me informed throughout the entire trial process, was specific and clear on what kind of infomation, (documents etc..) he needed from me. Not only did he go to wo...rk and took care of business, he was able to reach a settlement both parties were comfortable with. He's a very professional guy, if I ever were to need a lawyer I would no doubt give him a call. I highly recommend him.

A Fantastic Attorney

Zev Hardman is a wonderful attorney. He's very thorough and kept me in the loop of what was going on with my case. If I called and left a message Zev, returned my phone call the same day. He's really easy to talk to and he will answer any of your questions/concerns. Zev Hardman is really a great, har...d working, outstanding attorney. If you have a case that need resolving call Zev Hardman, he'll get the job done. Many blessings Zev!

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.
