I contacted Mr. Bander concerning a civil matter where a contractor had taken over 13,000.00 from me and refused to complete my work or refund any of my money. From the initial consultation all the way to the end of the trial, Mr. Yigal paid utmost attention to every detail I told him (and boy, I can ramble) concerning my case. He is VERY PATIENT, kind, understanding and thorough. He was extremely confident and made me feel very comfortable. I never felt rushed when I spoke to him and he was very punctual in returning calls and/or emails. I knew from day one that I hired him, that I had made the right decision in an attorney. He is very laid back and down to earth and makes you feel that your case is #1 !! I love that!! He even opened his office on a football weekend to accommodate my schedule which is almost unheard of! You will definitely not be disappointed in hiring him!! By the way, HE WON OUR CASE!! I could not have been more pleased with an attorney.
Superb professionalism at its finest is putting it mildly when speaking of Yigal Bander. He listened to my son regarding a violation of his civil rights by a school superintendent. He was honest and forthcoming with information on his case. His responsiveness was swift, even with the minor details of the case. In court his mild demeanor became the lion after his prey. He left no stone unturned in his investigative research. So proud we chose Yigal Bander to represent my son. Painting over a seniors painted-parking spot my seem minor to some but it was devastating to my son. Mr. Bander won my sons case in federal court. My son repainted his parking spot. I can never thank him enough. 🇺🇸
Mr. Bander was an amazing lawyer and helped my dad win his case. My dad was falsely accused of a crime by a police officer and charged with a civil case by the same police officer after clearing his name from a criminal one. Fighting this case was financially draining and emotionally traumatic for my immigrant dad who hadn’t done anything wrong in his entire life. Mr. Bander was very professional and kind and cared about this case as much as one of my family member would. He is very good at what he does and is compassionate about the case. I don’t think any other lawyer would have been able to do as amazing job as Mr. Bander.
I have been blessed to have Yigal Bander as my defense attorney. He defended me on a licensing board complaint regarding a serious but false allegation. This complaint had resulted in a 3-month suspension of my professional license, with possible full revocation of my license had he not aggressively and expertly defended my innocence. Upon engaging his legal services, Mr. Bander immediately jumped to my defense with strategic action, and he worked tirelessly until the matter was dismissed, and my license was fully restored. Throughout this highly stressful ordeal, he compassionately counseled me to keep strong and hopeful. It is noteworthy that prior to becoming an attorney, Mr. Bander had been a licensed social worker. He genuinely cares. We developed a close working relationship, more like a good friendship than the typical attorney-client relationship. Yigal was always accessible and responsive to my calls, texts and/or emails, and very attentive to my concerns. Bander is the Best!
Attorney Bander was very informative and astute in handling my Consumer Rights case. I would definitely recommend his service for your legal needs. Based on how he handled my case, I would rate him as being one of the best legal representations in law. He was very professional and were proactive at filing documents and always one step ahead with legal defense. Although my case was stressful, Mr. Yigal Bander's confidence, experience and dedication gave me relief. He was witty at times, in which I saw a very human side to him, not just a legal dictionary. I appreciated his candor and professionalism of keeping me in the loop for the case. I was never shocked or disagreed with steps taken in court. Never once did I have to chase him for questions about my case. So I am proud to say, after a lengthy litigation process, Mr. Bander never showed slack and my case was dismissed. If you want a great lawyer, choose Yigal Bander at Manasseh, Gill, Knipe & Bellinger PLC. " He's One of The Best"
Absolutely without a doubt, HIGHLY RECCOMENDED!!! Very professional indeed, He kept me well informed about every little detail on my case, Darn good about staying on top of things, and getting positive results for you. Treated me like Family honestly, Very Friendly, Courteous, An Honest to good hearted Family man. I cannot thank him enough and DEFINITELY recommend Yigal Bander of Mannasseh and Gill!!!
Working with Mr. Bander was a true pleasure. He kept me informed every step of the way until my case was settled. At no point did I feel like I was not fully informed of the status of my case. I highly recommend him to those who are looking for a true professional who will go above and beyond to provide quality service to his clients.
Yigal was instrumental in helping resolve a family estate problem involving multiple family members with different opinions. I highly recommend using Yigal if you have any needs with estate litigation.
Mr. Bander regularly communicated with us regarding the status of our case and consistently made himself available to answer all of our questions. We sincerely appreciate his assistance in our son's personal injury case and highly recommend Mr. Bander and the Manasseh, Gill, Knipe, & Belanger Firm.
