What recent reviews say

Most reviewers praise Harmel & Associates for responsive service and smooth real estate closings. Staff members Lara and Gloria are frequently named as reliable. However, one detailed complaint describes a $30k wire fraud loss where the firm forwarded unverified banking details and then avoided accountability or insurance claim transparency. Communication broke down entirely after the incident.

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

Immigration Law Offices of David M. Sperling

4.5(246)✓ Google-verified

Asylum cases and green card applications dominate the reviews, with clients consistently crediting named attorneys and paralegals for shepherding them through complex processes. Adam, Chartrisse, Benjamin, Maira, and Diana appear repeatedly, praised for patience and hands-on follow-up that made overwhelming paperwork feel manageable. One reviewer reported weeks without a callback, breaking an otherwise consistent pattern of accessibility. The firm's strength lies in its named staff who explain immigration law in plain terms, check in regularly, and deliver results-asylum wins, permanent residency approvals, and the relief clients express suggests a practice deeply woven into Central Islip and Long Island's immigrant communities.

Most clients experience swift, attentive legal work with upfront fees and constant updates. Traffic matters, landlord disputes, and family cases move fast under Marra or Shawn Kassman's direct oversight. One older complaint mentions service dropped after a staff member left, but recent reviews (past four months) show strong results and responsiveness across multiple practice areas. Clients praise flat fees, weekend availability, and how the office explains options in plain terms. Communication happens via email, phone, and court handling. Faster-than-expected outcomes and case dismissals are common.
