Client Review

"Sometimes you are dealt a bad hand, and sometimes you get dealt a royal flush. Seth Gladstein and his firm were, and are my royal flush. A little over a year ago I was involved in a motor vehicle accident (rear ended by a distracted driver), totaling my vehicle and breaking a bone in my left foot in the process. I contacted my lawyer and after a bit of communication discovered that the vehicle that struck me, the owner was a client of his firm so he could not represent me. I then asked a good friend a recommendation and she gave me Seth's name. BEST recommendation ever. A major reason to hire a lawyer is to have someone that will look out for your best interest, and at no time did I ever get the feeling that he was doing anything other than that. To say that he and his paralegal (Barbi, she deserves a raise!) made sure that every i was dotted and every t was crossed doesn't seem strong enough an expression to say how thorough they were. Communication was never an issue, either he or his paralegal returned my calls promptly or returned emails quickly, And I was always in the loop of what was going on, and how things were progressing, I was never in the dark. And, to his, and your benefit he is not a high volume attorney. In other words, your case won't get lost in the shuffle and will get the attention that a client deserves. To say that I wholeheartedly recommend his firm seems an understatement.

I cannot thank him and his paralegal enough for being my advocate, and I feel that you can not do better or make a wiser choice than to give him the opportunity to assist you."
