He has complete understanding of the law and took the time to really understand the details of the case. He was organized represented me as an excellent attorney. I highly recommend Mr. Karotkin without any reservations.
He handled a prolonged medical malpractice case and was recommended by a very good plaintiff attorney. I found him very well grounded in medical matters as well as experienced in the law, and always quick to respond even to minor inquiries. He is very good at saying "Don't say THAT in the deposition" in a tactful way. And his office staff is EXCELLENT.
Very pleased with considerate empathetic and professional interaction throughout my case...I would recommend Mr. Karotkin if asked in the future.
You can't describe such a kind hearted person in a few words. I reached out to Mr. Karotkin not realizing that he only represents businesses. He was still so kind to me even though he knew he couldn't represent me. He treated me as if I were a client and steered me in the direction I needed to go. While others brushed me off, he listened with a kind heart. I can for sure tell you if I ever know anyone with a business and looking for a good attorney, I know where I will be sending them! Anyone with the compassion he had is A+++++ in my book. Thank you again Mr. Karotkin
