Amazing lawyer. Incredible human. When no lawyer would take my case, Susan did. It was an uphill battle, but she gladly took it on. Because to Susan, it’s about more than what the law says. It’s about finding an angle and fighting for what’s right. No matter the odds. She wields a mastery of the law that keeps her ten steps ahead of her opponents. When one door closes, she finds three windows. Or, just kicks it down. And every move she makes has your best interests in mind. She takes the time to understand your interests beyond your case. Who you are. What you’re about. So she never operates outside of your comfort zone, and can better prepare you for when things get stressful. Susan is the best of both worlds: A great lawyer you can count on, and a caring person who’s there for you. It’s easy to find a lawyer to take your case. But, if you want a lawyer who will make your case their own, that's Susan.

I am proud to say that I have worked with Susan Chana Lask since 2014 in both my professional and personal endeavors. She is thorough and knowledgeable in many areas of law, and her record speaks of her outstanding achievements. Senators, Assemblymen, and Attorneys General, among others, trust her representation and knowledge of the law to represent them and assist them in their cases. She had the unique honor to appear before the United States Supreme Court and was invited to testify before the United States House of Representatives because of her work in the foreclosure fraud crisis. The media recognizes her as a high-profile and high-powered attorney in their many articles and television accounts about her cases. Susan will work hard for you, and make sure you get the best representation to fight for your rights.

Consulted Attorney

Susan Chana Lask stepped up for my case when no lawyer in our area would. She worked non-stop from Friday until Tuesday to help me stop a New York town from approving two special use permits to open an over 500 dog Puppy Mill. Susan was professional, knew the law and researched and explained everything to me during a holiday weekend, to the point that she mobilized town officials and the media to bring awareness to the case. We won the case in 24 hours because of Susan's outstanding legal skills. She is extremely intelligent, personable and reliable. If you want a lawyer you can trust with the highest integrity, I highly recommend Susan.

Susan is a tenacious advocate for her Clients and when dealing with significant issues, as legal matters normally tend to be; I cannot begin to fully describe how secure and confident I feel in Susan's knowledge and expertise. Simply put, when people refer to an attorney as being "a shark", they are referring to attorney's that are of Susan's caliber.
