Hired Attorney Hamish Cohen

The definition of a snake. Do not trust a single word that Hamish. He will say something in written communication and then immediately commit an action that contradicts what he said. He’s just not trustworthy. He must be driven by money because he does not care about other human being if he is getting paid by a client, anything goes. A complete disgrace to the US justice system.

Hired Attorney Mark Pizur

Cant believe he still has his license, man should be on permanent parole. This man hasn't been right in the head since the early 90's picking on women 3 x younger than him. Absolutely terrible behavior and should be sent to jail for hate crimes.

Hired Attorney Mark Pizur

Horrible person to go after neighbors like that. This guy is absolute scum for talking to people like he does. I hope his “firm” goes out of business because they want to have him even after knowing the disgusting things he says to people. If I could rate 0 stars I would. Dude doesn’t deserve to be on the streets let alone representing someone in a court of LAW, yk the laws he breaks.

Hired Attorney Mark Pizur

This attorney enjoys using the work ‘like’ when harassing his neighbors. There is video evidence of this and frankly it’s disgusting that someone with so much responsibility can speak so carelessly. Should be fired.

Hired Attorney Mark Pizur

Mark is scum who threatens his neighbors and spews antisemitism towards them. He’s currently on probation for these things. The fact that a law firm still employs him is disgusting. I wouldn’t recommend this guy to anyone.

Hired Attorney Mark Pizur

He attacked a young girl and her father and is currently on probation, also he spews Jewish hate towards said girls partner, quoting Hitler and admitting he was Palestinian. He also stated “hitler failed to exterminate said persons bloodline”

Hired Attorney Deborah Thorne

We had the unfortunate experience of being forced to use Mrs Thorne. She “Represented” my family and she was supposed to protect us. She strung the whole event along, raised her hourly wage because 450$ an hour wasn’t enough, and spent over a year hiring experts and sucking what little we had in investments away into her own bank account resulting in almost decimating relatives, elderly people. A very dear African American couple was thrown into the streets and another aunt thrown out of her house into a welfare nursing home where she died of heartbreak. This person is the personification of a corrupt, dangerous Direction our country has taken. A total lack of regard for the people. She pocketed over a million dollars within a little over a year then when the money ran out, tried to sue my family and we fought tooth and nail to stay alive and we won. Because she is a liar and a thief. One of the scariest, most horrible time in our lives and the lives of our 7 children.

Hired Attorney Deborah Thorne

We had no choice using this unethical person. She was really good at spending all our money eat and absolutely destroying the lives of many old vulnerable people, She was supposed to protect the people not eviscerate them. We ended up having us hire another lawyer to fight a case we finally won. Not before she wiped us all out.
