"I endorse this lawyer. Pedro and I worked together for a number of years and he is extremely knowledgeable when it comes to housing law. I trust him with all legal matters and recommend his services to anyone looking for an outstanding attorney."
"Pedro Rivera is an excellent litigator and expert negotiator. Pedro was my supervisor in landlord-tenant court in Kings County. He was very knowledgeable, professional, and well-respected by his peers and judges. I endorse him."
"Pedro and I worked together at the New York State Tenant Protection Unit. He is a dedicated professional, who is scholarly and pragmatic and results driven."
"Mr. Rivera is a very skilled and knowledgeable attorney. There was never a question he didn't know the answer to, and he was able to think outside of the box to favorably resolve issues for his clients."
"Pedro Rivera is an excellent attorney. His trial skills are second to none. If you are looking for a litigator who will fight for you, you need Pedro Rivera."

"I endorse this lawyer. It is my pleasure to endorse Mr. Pedro Rivera, who worked as a supervising attorney on a housing court program I administer. Pedro is a great advocate, mentor, and teacher."
"Pedro has a strong understanding of civil litigation. I personally saw him supervise other attorney’s at Access to Justice in Kings County Civil Court’s Housing Part for two days a week. He is an advocate for New York City’s low income population. His dedication to non-profit organizations that connect attorneys with tenants for landlord tenant cases helped many families stay in their homes. I only hope that he continues to practice for many years. New York needs more advocates for the poor!"
