Hired Attorney Michael O'Donnell

Mr. O'Donnell is extremely knowledgeable in State and Federal laws barring foreclosure procedures. Including but not limited to; Statute of Limitations, Statute of Frauds, Equitable Subrogation and so on. His listening skills and his clear way of communicating made a very difficult situation tenable. We would have been buried alive without Michael.

Hired Law Firm

I am a New York attorney, and I have had very troubling interactions with Mr. ALLEN J. SCAZAFABO, JR., ESQ. (of RIKER DANZIG LLP). The following audio highlights one example from January 26, 2024: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1uQFyyTNfoP_daXN_wLEAqBX1qsSfydT6/view?usp=drive_link In that exchange, Mr. Scazafabo belittled me, saying I was “not smarter” than him, accused me of watching “Gotti movies,” and used aggressive language such as “you’re not a street guy” and “go ahead, you threaten my family again, and you’ll see what happens.” He also vowed to retaliate in litigation by “ordering the whiz wit” (everything and the kitchen sink). Even when told he was being recorded, he doubled down. This is especially alarming given his designation as a Certified Civil Trial Attorney, a credential issued by the NJ Supreme Court to signify skill, ethics, and integrity. In my experience, his behavior fell far short. I cannot recommend him. Kindly, JM (JUAN-MIGUEL) MARIOTTI, ESQ., MS

Hired Law Firm

Indifferent abrasive insensitive attorney failed to pursue my interests or follow instruction, was obsessed with billable hours, refused to accept information and evidence, took advantage of my emotional vulnerability, made decisions for me, quit after taking all my money, and left me displaced, destitute and traumatized with an unenforceable settlement.
