Bang for your buck!

Mr. Wendrovsky has been of great assistance on a variety of matters over the years, including a family estate, recouping monies from the airlines over lost luggage, and landlord-tenant matters. He is very knowlegeable about the law, is very honest and direct. He gets right to the point and has let... me know that certain matters were just not worth pursuing, from a monetary point of view. He is a very strong advocate for his clients. I highly recommend him. KR

Very professional

Being a French citizen with a specific problem that was a little bit complicated and pretty unusual under American law, Mr. Gerry Wendrovsky handled my case in a very diligent way. From the first moment I talked to him, I had a good feeling about how Mr. Gerry Wendrovsky would solve my problem, indee...d he did solve it even though he never handled a similar case. It was done in a short time and in a very professional and detail oriented way. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Mr. Gerry Wendrovsky to friends or family members. Sophie P.

Very good services

A former client of my title company sued me with numerous allegations, I posted a question and Gerry Wendrovsky answered to it on Avvo. His answer made sense. I retained his professional services to defend my company in this case. In a matter of less then a month the plaintiff's attorney dropped the ...case against me. In his letter to the plaintiff's attorney Mr. Wendrovsky showed to plaintiffs how and why they were going to lose their case at the end. His letter was tough. I ended up spending a lot less then I would spend if my attorney went ahead with answers and discoveries and all the other procedures.At the end I wasn't changed for many hours of attorneys fees. Thank you Attorney Wendrovsky. Tigran Sahakyan GAT Abstract Corp.

Defend yourself before going to Gerry

This guy has no knowledge of the housing court system. He gave me the worst advice in my consultation. Thankfully, I was able to appeal my case and speak with a free lawyer provided at the housing court, who gave me the right advice. The free lawyer's reaction to what Wendrovsky told me to do was "hu...h?" Save yourself some headache and a lost case. Defend yourself before you go to him.

In response to this anonymous review, I take every consult or client seriously, and typically obtain satisfactory or better results for my clients. However, unless retained, not infrequently the information conveyed in a consult to a person who seeks information is not deemed acceptable to that person. As the consult who provided this review has chosen to remain anonymous, it is impossible to address their perceived issues, which is unfortunate.
