Very helpful!

Helped us with an intestate estate with international factors. Gave us a free consultation where he outlined our options and advised us to pursue the part of the estate we could recover. Good communication, thanks very much.

One of the Best Lawyers I have ever worked with.

OK. Here's the truth about Mr Wendrovsky. One of THE best lawyers that I have ever worked with. He handled a very complicated business law case for me. Lots of issues! He understood all of the issues, and worked out one of the best resolutions I could have hoped for. He is HONEST as well as TRUSTWORT...HY. He works hard at not only helping with the case, but in educating me so that future decisions are made with a better understanding on my part. I cannot say enough great things about him. Clearly, one of the best lawyers in NY JF

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

Dedicated approach coupled with the highest levels of integrity makes Gerry stand out.

I have retained the services of Gerry Wendrovsky for the last 4 years on a number of issues mostly related to tenant/ landlord matters, but also including a property purchase and a recent property sale. On all occasions, Gerry has delivered services in the most ethical manner and above all puts his c...lient's interests first. Up until meeting Gerry, my experiences with other NY based attorneys have been poor, Gerry is breath of fresh air and I would highly recommend him. His dedicated approach coupled with the highest levels of integrity makes Gerry stand out.

Superb Service

Gerry and his assistant Kathy are always responsive and helpful. Gerry would reach me nights and weekends when necessary. After an inital in office meeting, he handled a probate at long distance for me. He successfully and quickly dealt with NYC banks and the court system.
