I have been going to Ms. Schlesinger for legal matters for nearly two decades. She is always knowledgeable, fair and treats everyone with respect. She is also the rare attorney that listens to her clients, cares about them and is result oriented. I recommend her highly.
I can not begin to emphasize how glad I am that I chose this law firm. Marni has taken such good care of me. During the height of the Pandemic she called me several times to check up on me and my family. She has kept me in the loop about my case all along. My settlement has exceeded far more than I would have ever anticipated. Marni thank you so much for all that you do.
This was the best decision I ever made in choosing a Law Firm..Thank you to Phil for your excellent work and Marni for your personal touch in making it mind easing..Love you allThe Taylor Family
