I recommend Dreskin 100% I am so surprised that others claim to have had such a terrible experience. He has always returned my calls and kept great communication with me. Very easy to talk to and he knows what he's doing. He has been my lawyer since 2016 till present. I've had 3 car accidents and I w...ill never call anyone else but my LAWYER. Michael Dreskin.

HE IS A HORRIBLE ATTORNEY!!! DO NOT RECOMMEND!!

I got into a car accident in June 2020. This man called me 3 times since then called me “STUPID” and “DUMB” because his lack on communication and understanding. My accident was already so hard on me on top of working two jobs. I do not recommend and I wish I can sue him for improper work but unfortun...ately I can’t. I’ll just leave a review so nobody can go through the trauma I went through. Literally no information from him on my case, sent me to like 4 different doctors offices to get “checked”.. He doing it for money in his pockets. Please be careful

Worst Lawyer ever

Michael Dreskin has my case since 08/17/2017. Through this case he's explained I've I was getting several different accts, 100,000/ 75,000, 25,000/ 15,000/ speaking to him he explained I'm ONLY getting 7,500/ then his 33.3% comes out. Now this man has disappeared for 2 years, no call/ no check in abo...ut my case. I call he gets very rude, very unprofessional, he hangs up on me, and request paperwork at the last minute. I need to know if it's anyone, or can I have another lawyer to look into my case. I have a feeling this man is trying to rob me/ he keeps blaming it on GEICO, my heart is telling me their more to this case then what's appear. This man keep talking about trial. How he's trying to get more money by going to trial. If someone read this please contact me.. I need someone to look at this immediately.

Do not take this guy as a Lawyer

He’s the worst and very unprofessional. He will take your case and he’s very kind and responsive UNTIL he gets you to to take him as a lawyer. Once the papers are signed you NEVER hear back from him! I’ve had to use different numbers in order for him to pick up to pretend he’s going to call back and ...never does. He’s terrible! Please do not waste your time with him. I’ts been 5 months and I still haven’t heard from him. Very unprofessional!!
