Reviews for Susan
Have you consulted or hired this lawyer?
Leave a review about your experience with this lawyer.After years of being in litigation, Susan is the first lawyer who actually cared about me and my case. She is 100% HONEST, professional and passionate. She is not afraid to call out the injustices by other lawyers, as my case was a legal malpractice against another attorney. She called me immediately when no other lawyer returned calls. Her writing is precise and professional. I was amazed by her research and citing case law to support my position. She was relentless until she won my case.
Her knowledge of the law, legal research and writing skills coupled with her honesty and being the penultimate professional make her a powerhouse you'd be lucky to have on your side. After going through several attorneys in my family's case, we won once Susan was retained. She's the real deal.
Meeting Susan Chana Lask is a life-saver. I had an accident eight years ago and had another attorney who ruined my case, and I lost all hope. But since Susan took over my case, everything has been fixed and perfect. She is straight-forward, always communicates, and regularly updates me with calls and emails. Having Susan on my side is actually a blessing!
Attorney Susan Chana Lask demonstrated the breadth of her legal expertise and knowledge when I hired her to represent me in a particularly difficult employment law matter. This was a very emotional issue for me but I appreciated Susan's approach, she was extremely straightforward and professional. She explained the legal process to me in a way that was easy for a novice to understand, but she was not at all dismissive. An undeniable quality of Susan's is that she has a great ability to see the big picture on cases. She did a lot of research for our case and has great analytical skills. I felt understood and supported throughout the process. I recommend her 100%.
High Power Attorney is an underestimation of the dedication, determination and conclusion provided by Susan Chana Lask. Susan's knowledge and ability along with her experience cannot be defined. Ms. Lask send out multiple emails, made many phone calls and submitted documents to the office of the property manager's attorney and she keep me abreast of all correspondence.
As a trusted advisor, Susan has consulted and guided me with respect to operating my law practice. Her knowledge of the law is profound and matched only by her trustworthiness. Susan is easy to communicate with and always provides rapid and accurate information. I highly recommend Susan.
My construction business uses Susan Chana Lask as our counsel for the past Ten years. She continues to amaze us with her integrity, legal ethics, hard work and legal skills . did from the first day we hired her. Susan is always researching cases and laws, and up to date with the latest laws. She is personable and treats her clients like family, which is hard to find in an attorney. She saved us tens of thousands of dollars by getting baseless claims dismissed or informing us how to better operate our business. No other lawyer compares to Susan. I highly recommend this outstanding lawyer.
Susan Chana Lask is a phenomenal attorney. When I hired her it was the first time I hired an attorney who did not push me off to associates and was involved with every aspect of my case. She was available for any question or concern and was always available to take my call and answered my questions and explained the situations very clearly. I hired her for a divorce case and she got the case ended with ease, her command of situations is professional and refreshing and she makes you feel as though you are represented and that she there to fight for you. Her professionalism, knowledge of the law in multiple areas of the law puts her in a class of her own, her care and concern for her client is beyond amazing. I commend her for her knowledge of the laws and professionalism and for the comfort that she gives her clients. I highly recommend her without any doubt that whomever she represents is getting the highest quality of what you expect in an attorney who represents you.
I have been very fortunate to have acquired the excellent legal services of Susan Chana Lask, Esq. in my foreclosure case. I can not ask for a more responsive and knowledgable representation. Her effective arguments and ardent writings have made a big difference in my case and given me the confidence of an auspicious outcome. Rene Washingtonville, NY.
I was amazed at how knowledgeable this lawyer is about all facets of the law. I had a complicated divorce that Ms. Lask took on when it was appealed after my first lawyer failed me.. Susan was very patient, explained everything and told me a strategy of how she could win, and she did win! She is honest, hard-working and very smart. The Judge enjoyed her presentation too because of her extremely high professionalism amd respect in court and she is very likeable. Susan is a very talented lawyer that made a big difference in my life.
