Fred Abrams took went above and beyond for me, at a very fair price. Dealing with a government agency can be a very long and frustrating process. Fred met them head on, keeping me informed, and then won in a relatively speedy time. I cannot recommend him enough.

Fred is definitely responsive even when he’s busy. Very respectful and polite. He actually cares about his clients frustration’s compassionately. He made no promises to me on winning my cases to my liking of any kind but definitely guaranteed he’d do his best to give me the most positive outcomes towards what I was looking for in my case and he did just that. I’ve already recommended some family and associates to seek help from Fred Abrams law firm.

It was utter frustration that drove me to Fred Abrams and a clear cut case of Govt wrong doing for no apparent reason. Mr. Abrams was relentless, anticipating every road block that the agency in question put in our path and citing the law and firm reasoning for a positive decision. The outcome we got was unprecedented in these times and positive to our case. I would recommend Mr,Abrams strongly for any challenging case that you think can't be won,
