He's the best , very professional ,knows what he doing , always has your best interest in heart . He fights for what's right

Daniel and his team delivered a superb client experience. They were proactive in protecting my rights and advising on the best course personally, but also professionally. If I were in a difficult legal position, Daniel would be my first call as his attention to his client's is exceptional.

Highly professional and knowledgeable.

Highly highly recommend! Dan was the first lawyer who wanted to sit down and hear the case in person even before taking on the case. He was attentive and ready to fight the case! I knew immediately that I wanted to work with him. Dan is available to chat at all times of the day. He shows his full support and is very strong when presenting the case!

Dan is terrific and really helped me out significantly in a crisis moment. I’m not sure what would’ve happened without him. His grasp of the law and strategy as we went through the case was fantastic.! As I learned, criminal law is completely different than business or civil. Thankfully, I was recommended to Dan and he stepped up to help me in the clutch. I cannot recommend Dan or the firm more strongly. When I contacted Dan, he responded immediately and promptly. And there is not even a question that he would be my go to person in a situation that involves criminal law..

I highly recommend Dmitriy Shakhnevich as a lawyer to anybody. He was nothing short of incredibly helpful, professional and completely understanding with my issue. Dmitriy always gets things done in the best way possible !

I have to say Dimitri, being on the case he is focus and all business. He will not let anything get through the cracks. You definitely want him as a tourney on your side.

Dmitriy is simply impeccable. I called in for a consultation about a very specific issue that I was having and had very limited knowledge about. He led me through the ins and outs of the entire process; maintained the most professional demeanor throughout and was very patient with me. In my past experiences with other lawyers, I felt as though their main purpose was to get me out of their office as quickly as possible. This was not the case here. Dmitriy was very thorough and elaborate and hiring him was truly the best decision I had ever made. A recommendation of the highest regard would simply not be enough. He helped me through a very difficult time and I would not hesitate to recommend him. I will most definitely be back for any and all law related issues. It's not often a legal concern is handled so efficiently and responsibly as it was here. He made sure to keep me informed in all phases of the process, versus me having to chase him around as is often the case in other firms. I felt very confident being represented by a person that simply put, knows the law. Thank you.

I appreciate professionals, like Dmitriy, who pay attention to all the details and who have the determination to get stuff done and fast. In my world, I need speed and smarts, because business opportunities are always coming my way. Dmitriy has been and continues to be a great addition to my legal representation for Team Shamrock.

I was involved in a motor-vehicle accident and contacted Dmitriy. He is easy to talk to, simple to reach at any point throughout the day (he provides his cell, office, and email), always helpful with any questions I had, and just made me feel welcome. I never was hesitant to come to him because he always was happy to share the knowledge and expertise. He truly wants the best for his clients and that is evident in my experience with him.

Sakkas , Cahn & Weiss, LLP is great law firm. Very professional response. They very detail always answered your question. Great knowledge workers and attorneys. I will recommend them to anyone who needs professional trustful help. I’m very thankful to Adam Cahn for helping me.

When I began my journey through my malpractice case I certainly wasn’t prepared for what lied ahead - Adam Cahn and his team (especially Kim) always had my back and always told me the truth. I am so very grateful for all that he did and truly a “stand up” guy - his boys may not see it now but I can assure him that he is a great power of example in his work ethic, professionalism and empathy. The practice is an amazing organization that was not only professional, caring and thorough but more importantly the obvious loyalty, dedication (and friendship) permeates throughout. Adam is one of the “good guys” and for that I am extremely grateful. Being able to take a deep breath and put this all behind and tackle whatever is in store for me seems like a option now - one I will take. Thank you!

I initially hired another law firm to handle my case. I found myself constantly calling them for updates and they never had any answers. After two years I switched law firms and hired Sakkas, Cahn and Weiss. They explained the process clearly, called me with updates and settled my case in less than six months. My brother had a case and switched as well. He also loves them. These guys get great results, and have an amazing staff, but more important is their bedside manner - this is the firm you want representing you.

I’m a Los Angeles attorney. An old client of mine called me to say that he had been in a bad automobile accident in New York City and was unhappy with his lawyer. I referred him to Adam Cahn, Esq at Sakkas, Cahn & Weiss, LLP. My client called to tell me how thankful he was that I recommended this firm. They got him a terrific result in a very expeditious manner. During the process they also get me in the loop with letters updating the status. If you are looking for a great law firm, I give them my highest rating.

I found Sakkas, Cahn & Weiss on Super Lawyers and they lived up to their billing - they outlined the process for me, always took my calls and kept me both informed and prepared for each phase of the case. Then they settled my case for an amount that beat all my expectations. By the time this case was over I considered them family. I would recommend this firm to anyone seeking justice.

I cannot thank Matthew Galluzzo enough for his help with my legal needs. He is professional, kind, and talented. Thank you so much

I am a finance professional and green card holder. I was charged with theft of service (taxicab) on two separate occasions (the second instance had an assault charge thrown into the mix as well). In both cases I knew I was not guilty, but was an anxious mess nonetheless having had no prior experience with the law and fearing the possibility of deportation. To compound matters, in both instances I had to travel across the border several times while the case was still open. Matthew was very gracious about dealing with my anxiety and was always available to discuss my case. He is clearly passionate about what he does and about fighting for his clients. He has a confidence about him where you just know you're in great hands. He's a great lawyer, but a really good person as well! He is a down to earth and is very understanding of your situation. In both cases he got me the result I needed and my border crossings went smoothly due to the letters he wrote for me and immigration lawyers he proactively consulted with to weigh in on my situation. I cannot express enough how much I would recommend him for any legal need! In particular for those -like myself -who are not US citizens. A total class act.

An amazing attorney! 5.0 stars Posted by anonymous June 12, 2018 Flag Mr. Galluzzo is a very able and skilled attorney, who treats his clients with the utmost respect even in the most awkward of situations. Mr. Galluzzo was retained by my parents and not only did he manage to negotiate a very favorable deal on my behalf, he always made us feel comfortable and at ease. I highly recommend Mr. Galluzzo to anyone seeking his above average legal skills and impeccable manners.

Mr. Galluzzo and his team at G&J are absolutely one of the best at what they do. The work tirelessly at getting the best possible result for the case at hand and they truly care about their clients. Galluzzo and his team were able to overturn and vacate my guilty plea, then taking a big risk where I could have faced a large amount of time in prison Galluzzo took my case to trial. He walked in there with the confidence and swagger as if he already knew everything would work out for me, he laid out every single fact and hole in the prosecutions case to the jury and came away with a full acquittal on every charge after just one hour of deliberations. In an instant, I had my life back! I would most certainly recommend Matthew and his team to anyone in need of legal help. Thanks again Matt!

I hired Mr. Galluzzo to represent me in a criminal case in Federal Court and he did a fantastic job from beginning to end! He assessed my case accurately, charged me a fair fee, always communicated with me promptly and worked very hard for me, until I was acquitted after a 4-day Jury trial. Originally after being arrested I rushed and hired a different attorney who was not advancing my case properly and was making obvious mistakes, in my opinion. After I paid this other attorney in full I was forced to fire him anyway and he would not even give me back my file. I was so fortunate to find Mr. Galluzzo, a great attorney, who took over my case, was very patient and understanding, he retrieved the necessary documents from the court and worked out a great winning defense strategy for me. Mr. Galluzzo is not only a highly knowledgeable and skilled attorney, but he is also a very good and caring human being. I am very grateful to Mr. Galluzzo for all he has done for me! I highly recommend him!

Lance is great. I hired him for representation in a messy situation and he was able to get my case dismissed. Highly recommend him.

I think 5 starts is not enough !! Great human , professional, and know what is doing . Keep it up Mr Lance . Thanks !!

Lance is a great guy. I have hired him for his help in three different cases dating back to 2012. In my most recent case this past year, he hit a home run in the courtroom and had my DUI case dismissed. I can't explain what a great day that was for me. Worth every penny, Lance will definitely be my first call if I ever wind up in trouble again

They said they would call me back and no one did.

Mr.Fletcher is the TRUTH. He is calm, collected, honest and very knowledgeable. This was my first time getting into trouble so having to go to court new for me and honestly pretty scary. Mr.Fletcher made it such a smooth process and because of him my case was dismissed!! I can’t give enough praise. If you need help I highly recommend Lance Fletcher

I paid $250 to discuss my case and spoke to a female name Marissa I think and she said that they could take my case and to think about it so I did. She called back like 5 days later asking me if I made up my mind and I said I needed to rule out some other possibilities. So I did that and when I called back the following week they initially answered the phone but the guy that did acted hesitant and I asked for the lady to call me back about the case. No one ever did. I called them and they picked up the phone and hung up and I thought it was an accident so I called again and they did the same thing. So very rude, not professional and not responsive after I had paid them.

2020 was a rough year for everyone. But for me it was even further burdened with my first arrest and being charged with multiple felonies. Thankfully I found my amazing lawyer, Mehdi. From our first sit down I knew I was in good hands. This man literally (and metaphorically) held my hand through almost a year of court appearances, charges, and eventually my plea deal. He told me one Day 1 that the best case scenarip would be a Disorderly Conduct but it would be a long and hard road to try to get that. Word to the wise: do NOT admit all your guilt at time of arrest! Somehow this magical lawyer did it, he got a plea for Disorderly Conduct! He worked tirelessly and hard for it. He calmed my anxiety and called me to give me updates as soon as he got them. Even though I know he had other clients, I very much felt like a priority. I was heard and understood. I can not express enough gratitude and thanks to Mehdi for, honestly, saving my life. Going through a criminal charge is very stressful and very scary. But Mehdi not only helped me but made me happy. I am overjoyed with how my case turned out. Highly highly recommend if you find yourself in a situation where you need a lawyer.

Mehdi was successful in getting my charges dropped in a very complex criminal case. He built a strong legal strategy and effectively implemented it. Working with Mehdi throughout the legal process was a positive experience in a very difficult time. Mehdi was responsive and supportive. I would highly recommend Mehdi for those who are seeking the best criminal defense possible.

This is the best nyc law firm ever if you looking to win cases this is the place to go they are very professional and very good at what they do shout out to mehdi for winning my case will definitely keep Recommend !!!!

Mehdi Essmidi was a beacon of hope to me and my family at a time when our options appeared limited and the likelihood of a satisfactory resolution seemed impossible. My children and I are eternally grateful for his service and I hereby recommend Mr Essmidi.

simply amazing! I was extremely nervous about my brother's case but Mehdi was very professional and jumped right into action and took care of the case! He talks the talk and delivers! I would absolutely recommend to anyone and everyone i know.

This is a place where business is PRIORITY. Just in December you brought a man who was well overdue for justice to his mercy for me and my family. You worked hard and fought for us and brought a guilty man to his prime. Thank you Attorney Ryan Blanch and partner (lawyer) Esq. Londyn Rivera for putting my word first.

I just got of the phone with Debra one of the case managers of the law firm and she was very helpful and informative. The law firm is very professional and responsive. They patiently listened to our case and Debra provided me with alternatives to our case and gave me useful information on filing complaints to the BBB and the Consumer Complaint Bureau. They are a firm you would want to work with because they have patient and helpful people who are genuinely willing to help. Thank you for the assistance!

They don't call him the Acquittal King of New York for nothing. I have worked with Troy for over 10 years. In that time I have seen him help 100's of clients with their criminal cases and expungements, defending them against major felonies, murder charges, and even sex crimes. Troy is on of the best criminal defense attorneys in Manhattan. If you need a good criminal lawyer, look no further.

We had a serious criminal matter in the family that needed immediate attention. Troy worked with us and explained all of our options. He is an aggressive criminal defense attorney that will go the extra mile in your defense. After achieving an acquittal of all criminal charges, Troy was able to get an expungement of all records. We cannot thank Troy enough for his help during this time. We would recommend his law office to anyone in need of a criminal defense attorney in New York.

I have known Troy Smith for approximately 20 years. He is the best of the best. NYC is full of lawyers, many of whom suffer from over sized egos and even bigger waistlines. Troy Smith is the real deal who walks the walk, earning himself the nickname of "Acquittal King." I have been practicing law with and watching Troy in action for my entire career. If myself, a loved one or close friend were ever charged with a crime, Troy would be on my Dream Team - without hesitation! If you have been accused of a crime and are serious about saving your life and liberty, Troy is your first choice for criminal defense representation in NYC.

IF I COULD LEAVE 0 STARS, I WOULD!!!!! THESE ATTORNEYS ARE NOT FOR THE PEOPLE, THEY ARE FOR MILITARY DEFENSE ONLY!! I DO NOT RECOMMEND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can’t say enough wonderful things about Troy. He truly is one the smartest and most capable lawyers you will find in New York. Not only that, he has a manner that will make you feel at ease during a difficult time. There is no one else I would go to, I can promise that you will feel confident with Troy in command of your situation. Highly recommend!
