There aren't enough positive words to express our experience with Brett J. Kaminsky, Esq. He kept us informed every step of the way and was always available quickly when we had questions. Brett was incredibly understanding, attentive and thorough, and we could not be more pleased with the entire experience as well as the outcome of the case. I highly recommend Attorney Kaminsky and his firm. You will not be disappointed.

Brett was my lawyer in a medical malpractice case that ended VERY well. After speaking with countless lawyers that just referred me to paralegals who never got back to me, I was referred to Brett. He practically gave me the shirt off his back with his hospitality and gave me all of his direct lines to reach him at 24/7. Brett saw more than dollar signs, he genuinely cared about me and my family through the whole process. Don't mistake compassion for weakness, because this man will fight tooth and nail for you until the end. I hope this helps anyone in need of top quality representation make a decision to reach out to him.

Preparing estate/end of life documents isn’t a sexy business but it needs to be handled perfectly! This was a surprisingly emotional experience for my wife and me but we have a new feeling of calm now that we have protected our family in the best way possible. Thank you Alex and Rita… you guys are in the family whether you like it or not!

Very professional on phone and in person. Felt comfortable asking questions and explanations about trusts was clear. Alex spent time on several calls to confirm needs. It was easy to make an appointment, and notary and witnesses were present. Did the leg work to find the property deed. After signing, shared pdf files the next morning.

Derek, I would like to personally thank you for looking at my mother’s case and taking it. You changed my life. I made a promise to my mom, and you are helping me keep my promise. I have been through a lot in 2 years, I lost my mom, my mother-in-law, my mom’s brother, and 3 furbabies. You changed things for me, and I will be forever grateful to you. Thank you for all that you are doing for my family.
