What recent reviews say

Long-standing clients praise Jim Clark's patience during foreclosure and short sale, naming staff like Eileen and Stacee for responsiveness. However, recent reviews allege unresponsiveness, abandoned deals, and ethical lapses including fraud allegations. The split is sharp: 68% five-star versus 26% one/two-star.

Based on limited recent reviews, so treat this as low-confidence.

Long Island Eviction Law Firm, PLLC

Long Island Eviction Law Firm, PLLC

4.3(38)✓ Google-verified

The firm wins strong praise from most landlords for quick eviction outcomes, upfront fees, and reliable communication from staff like Michelle Murtha. James and Michelle keep clients informed at each stage and deliver results without surprise charges. However, a handful of clients report serious friction: one landlord faced refund denial, intimidating legal threats over an honest review, and then a retroactive invoice they had to dispute. Another questioned the attorney's courtroom commitment and negotiation effort. These stand apart from the typical positive experience but signal risk for clients whose cases stall or need courtroom aggression.

Mikel J. Hoffman Attorney at Law

4.4(12)✓ Google-verified

Most reviewers praise Hoffman's knowledge, clear explanations, and hands-on availability across real estate sales, wills, and trusts spanning 25+ years. One significant complaint details a will and trust filed incorrectly decades ago that left an estate unprotected; the office later declined to help rectify the problem, forcing the client to hire another attorney and spend thousands more.

Fine Law Offices

4.4(30)✓ Google-verified

Most clients praise Fine Law for keeping them informed, explaining legal steps clearly, and succeeding where other firms failed. Specific wins include loan modifications years after prior attorneys gave up, homes saved days before foreclosure, and mortgage payment reductions. Angela Sarvis and Phil stand out for responsiveness. Two older reviews from six years ago allege money was taken without results or proper action, though the firm has since built strong case closure and satisfaction records.
