Dorina Cela is one of the kindest, most knowledgeable and tenacious employment attorneys in New York. What makes Dorina unique is she genuinely cares about her clients, putting herself in their shoes, then working tirelessly to settle their matters. Not only did I walk away with a wonderful experience but a wealth of knowledge about my personal situational and employment law as a whole. The highest recommendation!

My journey for fairness in my workplace began with a Saturday phone call to leave a message, but to my surprise, Jesse Weinstein, a partner at the firm, picked up. After I shared my concerns about workplace harassment, Jesse not only listened attentively but also took on my case, assigning it to one of the Associates, Jason Stump. Like many workplace disputes, Jason was upfront and transparent about the challenges of going up against a large, powerful organization. He didn’t sugar-coat any part of the process, which made it easier for me to make informed decisions. Jason carefully reviewed my letter of appeal for a promotion and helped me draft two discrimination complaints. While it will be months before my appeal and complaints are resolved, thanks to Jason Stump, I feel like my voice was heard. And that’s all anyone truly wants—to feel heard, regardless of the outcome. I cannot recommend Phillips & Associates highly enough, but Jason Stump’s handling of my case was exceptional. :D

I had the pleasure of working with Kelsey and Gregory Kirschenbaum, and I must say, they were exceptional. Initially, I felt nervous and overwhelmed with the amount of information I had to collect, but their outstanding communication and meticulous attention to detail quickly put me at ease. Throughout the entire process, Kelsey and Gregory demonstrated professionalism, sincerity, and a strong dedication to achieving the best possible outcome. I advise anyone seeking legal expertise to utilize Kelsey and Gregory.

I had the pleasure of working with Phillips and Associates Law Firm’s Steven Fingerhut. He was very professional, personable and very reliable. He explained all procedures for this case and kept me informed and up to date on all matters. Responded to all of my phone calls and emails quickly. He absolutely fought for me and won my case. I would absolutely recommend Steven and this law firm.

I went through a rather traumatizing experience during the hiring process for what I thought was a legitimate job opportunity. I had difficulty deciding if I should pursue legal representation. I found myself glad to have ultimately contacted Phillips & Associates. Once I decided to pursue the case with Gregory Kirschenbaum representing me, Greg was regularly in touch, and always remained available to me whenever I had questions or matters to relate to him. The attention he was able and willing to devote to me and my case was especially impressive. Most important, I was fully satisfied with the final decisions the two of us made together, as a team. If you are finding yourself in a similar situation, I strongly suggest you consider contacting Phillips & Associates. Greg and everyone else at the firm is excellent at what they do, and they do all of it with the utmost levels of integrity, decency and professionalism. I am fully confident in highly recommending their services.

My name is Nyah and I was once a client at Phillip and associates PLLC. I just want to say the services at the firm was awesome and customer service is top tier. As far as my attorney, Jason Stump, he was excellent in supporting me in my case. He made sure that everytime I needed something he did his best to reach out to me and to update me on anything from opposing counsel. I am extremely grateful and thankful. If I had another case I would surely come back to this firm again.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions

Avvo Client Reviews

Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
