Helped me give back a 15 to 30 year sentence on appeal great lawyer

These guys are great. Helped my son. There secretary is the best she goes above an behind to make sure all answer are answered thanks

I had jim lloyd for the past 5 years and ever since hes been a great lawyer always getting good results thanks jim

Tim Tarpey did an outstanding job representing my brother-in-law in a criminal case. Through all the steps of the process he guided us diligently through obvious and hidden pitfalls offering his advice and guidance. The fact that my brother-in-law came out completely free of multiple serious charges we faced is because of Tim. I would recommend Tim in a heartbeat. I would suggest as well for other people working with Tim to trust his experience and the process and be patient. You have a professional on your side who might not come out immediately as super aggressive type. But trust me when the push is needed Tim will be there for you and you will see his alpha side as well.

They are very professional men. And they care about their clients.

Been trying to get in contact with an attorney since last wed but everytime i call i keep getting told no one is available to take my call leave a note/message and someone will get back to you

Never received a call back

Mr. Krasner and Mr. Long have represented me three times in the past few years when I faced criminal charges, and I cannot speak highly enough of them. I faced nine different charges over that span of time, and all were dropped. I value more than just their track record, though. Although I didn't have much money, both lawyers took the time to learn the ins and outs of my case, respectfully and thoroughly discussed the law and possible outcomes, and worked with me to ensure that their defense reflected not not only the best of their knowledge and skill but also my feedback and expectations. I have regularly and unreservedly recommended this firm to friends and colleagues.

If you ever face criminal charges, Larry Krasner is the attorney that you want to have on your side! When I faced serious charges, he represented me, and I am so grateful for his successful defense. He is thoughtful, thorough and SMART, and I believe him to be a lawyer of integrity! He is also an excellent communicator, calling on the phone the night before the trial began to field last minute questions, convey important info, and yes, to calm my nerves! He is the best!

I am so grateful to Krasner & Long for their legal expertise! They represented some colleagues of mine and I was called as a witness when the case went to trial. I was so impressed by their preparation and knowledge of the legal system and the Philadelphia courts. Along with a commitment to justice, they bring a lot of heart, a sense of humor and they never forget that they are dealing with people who are in a stressful situation. They are a great team to have on your side!

My lawyer Mr. Mark and his law firm was so professional and took on my case with respect and made sure i was satisfied in every way. I recommend them to anyone that needs a excellent lawyer

Mark is amazing very professional and gets the job done i’m extremely impressed with how well he has handled my case and guided me through the process.

Sometimes we are lucky during very unlucky times. That was the case in finding Mark. In a desperate situation to know my daughter's rights as a tenant after the landlord's neglect of a situation leaving her in possible danger and great liability, Mark took the time to hear and understand all the events that had taken place and advised us of our rights and how to proceed to minimize our liability and remove my daughter from the situation - all during the initial consultation. I greatly feel he went above and above to help us with compassion and understanding. I'm so grateful to have found him and I highly recommend him.

Attorney Copoulos is very diligent and professional. I cannot express my gratitude enough. He knows how to take an unfortunate situation and eliminate all the non-sense and go straight to business for quick and efficient resolution. With his service, you are in good hands.

Mark Coupoulous is an extremely smart , polite competent and aggressive attorney. He grasped all the info given ASAP, and processed to trial to get me a great judgement and a great outcome. I think he should be a super attorney and I highly recommend for your real estate related /tenant issues. I will use no other attorney in PA for my real estate related needs.

A good attorney is hard to find. But here you have a very good attorney. I would definitely recommend to anyone that needs a good attorney.

Out of all the lawyers I have contacted for my boyfriend, Zak was the only one that called me back and took his case. In a case that should’ve ended with many years in a jail cell ended with a few months of house arrest. He answered every question, every concern. He responded to every text and answered every call. Zak is an amazing lawyer. Even during a pandemic he still tried his hardest to make things happen. I appreciate his hard work and dedication. Would definitely choose Zak again if I needed to.

I cannot stress enough how pleased I am with the representation my family received from Mr. Clemens. Even with travel time to our location, he is always punctual leaving time for discussion prior to court time. Even though I pray we will not need more services, I know we can count on him. Thank you so much for representing our son. He would not have had a better outcome with anyone else.

Outstanding - Professional - Service. Attorney Goldstein was very professional and detail oriented from the first day we called him up and til the time he won our son's case. We were always kept informed of the progress and of any possible outcomes. We would highly recommend him to any of our family, friends, and anyone else needing an attorney that will get the job done. Again, Thank you

Mr. Goldstein is an elite attorney. As a former prosecutor, I handled cases with Mr. Goldstein as opposing counsel—he was a formidable opponent. He will provide the best available defense and obtain the best possible result.

Mr. Fishman is definitely worth the money, this man reassured me that everything would work out fine and I’d be okay. And sure enough he lived up to his word, courteous and respectful of his clients time he took the time to hear me out and make sure he got the right outcome. Unlike other lawyers he doesn’t like to drag out your case just to milk you for every penny you got, he puts you first and even after your case he’ll make sure your set straight. I highly recommend him!

There are moments in life when you need someone with a sharp mind but also a big heart. That was Brian. He didn't know me from Adam, but he took an hour to talk about something that was really bothering me. He was smart, compassionate, direct, and clear. It was so, so helpful and also a reminder that, despite the popular views to the contrary, some lawyers are truly amazing people who really make the world better. Thanks Brian.

Mr Fishman immediately stood out in court as the sharpest and gets the highest level of respect from staff and judges. That matters A LOT! So I hired him to solve a loved ones issue. In the end Mr Fishman was able to resolve it with no charges at all. If you, or a loved one, ever runs into trouble pick this guy. Relationships matter and you can't do better. Good Luck for anyone reading and thank you Mr. Fishman for excellent work and communication.

I can not stress how great of a lawyer Brian is. At first I wasn’t 100% sure of the quality of lawyer I was getting but from day one he was easy to reach and share details of my case with. He took my case personal as if his own family members freedom was on the line. Our first court appearance he not only exposed a shady police officer but argued for me at my preliminary hearing as if we were in trial and beat the case right then and there! He could of prolonged until trial and got more money out of me but the fact that he didn’t is a testament to his character and quality of lawyer he is. Being a young black male it was a breath of fresh air to finally find a lawyer so altruistic, you can’t find anyone better. And him reaching out after everything was over to just converse about my positive direction for my future was also heartening. Needless to say I highly recommend!!

I called this office because they came recommended when I called to my surprise the woman who answered the phone was so rude and condescending that I would never want to use this attorney. I am surprised that with that attitude

My experience with the entire team was nothing but great! The full team Erica, Neysa and Brian were all very pleasant and professional! They kept me up to date and walked me through the entire process. Everyone there made sure I was comfortable, and knowledgable with my case, ensuring that I was in the right hands! Definitely would recommend!!

I was told multiple times that Michael Van Der was going to represent my son at trial. He was there but let a attorney who was a attorney for 1 year. Michael kept saying things to Grant. The judge got irritated and asked who was representing my son and Michael said him. He then took over and lost. No evidence just accusation that the victim didn’t know what year or anything. I know my son was misrepresented. Michael should have the decency to admit he was wrong and represent my son for free. I’m sorry but it’s been 3 years and that’s all I think about. I’m under psychiatrist care and haven’t slept or ate right for these years. Michael I’m asking you please get my son’s convection dismissed. Just think if it’s was your child. I know my son is innocent and I’ll never stop till I take my last breath. Please find it in your heart and conscious to do the right thing. Brian has no idea I’m calling and writing. It’s Mary Alicea his mother who knows he’s innocent. Just read the report again and you’ll see many discrepancies from Anthony and a few from Christina.

Would never recommend this place to anyone. Although some of the lawyers may do their jobs correctly, others are there just to take your money with no work being done at all and management will be right by their side to back them up. It’s a shame when you tell a lawyer he is fired and he still says he is showing up to court dates because another lawyer is not assigned to the case. (Another lawyer was assigned) It’s a shame that you would abuse your power as an attorney and tell someone’s family member they do not know the law and scam them out of their money without making not one appearance in court and when asked for a refund...stating there are no refunds. When asked to speak with a manager, he’s just as rude and nasty and tells you to do what you want to do before hanging up and telling them they still owe money. The communication is horrible!! I’ve never heard a lawyer say, “I’m sorry I’ve been tied up with trial for 2 weeks and could not return ONE phone call.” If you know you do not have time for clients that are paying you a good amount of money, maybe you shouldn’t take on new cases. It could become overwhelming. Know your limits and stop scamming people out of their money just because “everyone seems to have cash now and days.” Just sickening! If I could give them NO STARS I definitely would!

The staff was both professional and friendly; the Covid protocol was tight. I really appreciate the wise counsel I received from Mr. Bruce Castor who reviewed every aspect of my situation, and invited an associate in office to join us in our meeting w/an area of expertise that I needed. After Mr. Castor listened he advised me on my options & quickly addressed my immediate concern before I even got home; he help to save me $ & followed up with encouragement & support.

I wish I can say good things but so far a bad experience. I had a case where I actually build my own case because nobody was actually doing their. The people there are great but the communication is horrible. I would love to continue business but I won’t. I did all the work & i will take my case to another lawyer.

When asked to speak with a manager, he’s just as rude and nasty and tells you to do what you want to do before hanging up and telling them they still owe money. The communication is horrible!! I’ve never heard a lawyer say, “I’m sorry I’ve been tied up with trial for 2 weeks and could not return ONE phone call.” If you know you do not have time for clients that are paying you a good amount of money, maybe you shouldn’t take on new cases. It could become overwhelming. Know your limits and stop scamming people out of their money just because “everyone seems to have cash now and days.” Just sickening! If I could give them NO STARS I definitely would!

    The staff was both professional and friendly; the Covid protocol was tight. I really appreciate the wise counsel I received from Mr. Bruce Castor who reviewed every aspect of my situation, and invited an associate in office to join us in our meeting w/an area of expertise that I needed. After Mr. Castor listened he advised me on my options & quickly addressed my immediate concern before I even got home; he help to save me $ & followed up with encouragement & support.

    I wish I can say good things but so far a bad experience. I had a case where I actually build my own case because nobody was actually doing their. The people there are great but the communication is horrible. I would love to continue business but I won’t. I did all the work & i will take my case to another lawyer.

Mr. Hughes is an exceptional lawyer and human being. Mr. Hughes provided me with competent representation followed by a value for my family’s best interest. I’m truly thankful for his time and expertise and would recommend his services with the highest honor.

Over all deal was for 25,000 Paid 10,000 up front Was at 15,000, missed a payment and he made sure he didn’t come to court …. He made sure he didn’t give us the discovery. We was very open about our financial status & he act as if he was understanding … missed 1 payment of 550. And he switched up all the way 15,000 down the drain cause we had to firer him for not putting forth in the court room & not showing up. ( 1 missed payment of 550$ ) made this man no longer interested…. He is all about money I’m a single mother of 3 & my husband was in jail A week late on a payment and he showed his colors he did not come to court for it.. shady man honestly.

I've had the best representation in the city by far when I hired Evan Hughes. I was facing several serious charges and things were looking grim. I really felt like my case was going end in bad terms until I consulted with Mr. Hughes. He gave me insight into how we can get the best results and I must admit I was a little worried. After going to court and seeing Mr. Hughes work through my case, I can't believe that he got the charges dropped down to a single simple misdemeanor!! A lot of lawyers give you good representation. Evan Hughes will give you top notch representation! I would definitely recommend that you contact him for any defense you may need. You would be impressed by the fight he puts in for you!!

My significant other had a felony case and Evan got the charges dropped he was very efficient and I highly recommend him...Thanks Evan

Mr. Evan Hughes is very rude and incompetent. His knowledge of the laws governed by the common wealth of PA are very limited. He give more opinions than facts and there is a lot of guessing and fantasizing of what will happen rather than being prepared for reality. I would never recommend this lawyer to even anyone who has something as small as a public littering charge because his negligence will get you the maximum sentence. If any further questions about my abhorrent experience with Hughes, feel free to email me or reply under review and I will reach out to you. PLEASE REFRAME FROM WASTING YOUR MONEY ON THIS ATTORNEY THE STATE APPOINTED ATTORNEYS ARE MUCH MORE KNOWLEDGEABLE AND EFFECTIVE!

The attorneys at Boonswang Law worked tirelessly to get me the money I was entitled to from the denial of my husband’s life insurance payout. After the firm achieved a successful outcome for me, I eagerly recommended their legal services to two other individuals who were in similar situations and they both received positive outcomes as well. I would recommend the Boonswang Law Firm to anybody dealing with a life insurance beneficiary matter and I am confident the attorneys will offer the same relentless determination and guidance they were able to give me when I needed it most. I am forever grateful to Chad and the other attorneys at the Boonswang Law Firm.

The lawyers at this firm well exceeded my expectations, and I am extremely impressed with the professionalism and diligence of this team. Chad was able to resolve my case very quickly, and he made my case feel like a priority. I would highly recommend this firm!

The efforts of Mr. Boonswang and the rest of his team are unparalleled. I'm extremely grateful for their efforts which led to the payment I deserved.

Boonswang Law Firm, did an overall outstanding job, with helping my mother get her case solved in a timely manner and in a professional manner. We appreciate everything you have done. Thank you with all our heart

After I hired Bill Brennan, he won our case, and a case he wasn't even directly involved with. He is tough, street-smart, savvy and practical. He can size people up instantly, and he cuts through to the heart of every issue. It seems like he knows everyone in town personally. People don't want to try cases against him. He's a fabulous lawyer, and a great guy to have in your corner when the chips are down. Highly recommended.

I highly recommend Bill Brennan , he was willing to work with me on a payment plan that could meet my financial needs. Excellent communication, calls and questions answered quickly and efficiently. Mr Brennan was able to explain to me plainly what to expect, which helped tremendously to put my mind at ease. Would hire him again if needed.

Bill and his team are amazing ! Bill was VERY fair with a price, he also didn’t rush me off the phone he listened and answered all questions. Theresa was on top of the ball with everything! She went above and beyond for my fiancé’s case. And Skip who is Bills right hand man in the court room, he showed up and was a bulldog. Got the whole case thrown out within 5 seconds of walking through the door. If i ever need a lawyer again which i hope i don’t i will definitely be coming back to Bill Brennan’s Law Firm. Thank you all , i highly recommend this company to anyone who wants a good lawyer and a great team behind him.

Bill Brennan did a stellar job with my difficult case. He made sure I fully understood the details of the process and answered all my questions. I can't thank him enough for the amazing job he did. His knowledge and expertise helped make the impossible happen, and I'm truly grateful to him and his team. I highly recommend him to everyone and wouldn't trust anyone else with my case. Bill was referred to me by a friend who said he was the best lawyer. And Bill truly is the best defense lawyer in Philly! Thanks for the great work you and your team put into my case. I really appreciate all your help and couldn't have done it without you.

Mr Brennan is an excellent lawyer!! He made me feel completely at ease and totally confident that we would prevail. He’s very personable and I felt as if I was speaking with a friend. Thank you so much for taking this burden off of my shoulders. I’ll be sure to tell everyone in need of great representation to make Brennan Law Offices their first call!
