Max is fantastic

I had the great pleasure of working with Max to resolve a legal issue that spanned 4 months. He was incredibly responsive, polite, knowledgeable, and most importantly helped my wife and I win our legal dispute. I don't know what we would have done without him navigating the nightmare the universe ran...domly threw our way, but I slept better at night knowing Max was fighting tirelessly for us. When we need legal services again, I'll be hiring Max again, and I'll be recommending him to others as well.

quick, responsive, knowledgeable

Max is very responsive and knowledgeable during the time I worked with him. He helped me on a case about a condo I purchase and another case on a property I was interested in. He has enough contacts to reach out for additional documents when necessary. He also reviews documents very quickly and does...n't delay things.

Excellent Attorney

I’ve already lost my hope to recover earnest money from the builder when I approached Maxim. He thoroughly investigated the matter and tapped into every aspect of the real state law. After multiple correspondence with the builder, they agreed to return the full amount. I am very happy and pleased how... Maxim handled the matter. He is extremely knowledgeable, persistent, and knows pitfall of the law. Highly recommend!

Absolute Rock Star!

We had an expensive jewelry theft from a hotel room in Hong Kong. Police did a full inspection with at-home interviews for suspects. The hotel admitted responsibility. Then the hotel passed the matter to their insurer, and the insurance company's loss adjuster offered a depreciated value against the ...jewelry. The necklace was still available online and had appreciated in value, not depreciated. The loss adjuster would not budge, so we engaged Maxim to help us with litigation. While Maxim doesn't practice law in Hong Kong, he was able to draft a letter that was powerful, well-worded, clear in terms of the only outcome we were looking for, and explained that if they didn't deal with this now then we would be handing over to a Hong Kong legal team that Maxim was recommending where further costs would be incurred on their behalf. After one letter the insurer caved and gave us the full *appreciated* amount for the necklace so we could repurchase it. Maxim was a joy to work with, taking the entire process on, and working directly on our behalf. Maxim will be my go-to person for all our legal needs from now on due to his expertise, customer service, and thoughtfulness. I can't recommend him highly enough.

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.
