Liebowitz, Liebowitz & Stern Testimonials

In this portion of our Web site we have provided a small sample of the professional services we perform on behalf of our clients and the areas of law practiced. It also affords an overview of the many years of extensive and diverse experience the lawyers at Liebowitz, Liebowitz & Stern have devoted to representing our clients in the Courts through whatever adversity, for as long as it takes, and if necessary, to the highest Court of our State.

"I saw three lawyers who all told me I didn't have a case and couldn't recover any money. Liebowitz, Liebowitz & Stern, Esqs. took my case and I received a substantial settlement of $40,000. In addition to the settlement, Mr. Liebowitz and his staff were always courteous and helpful."

"In June of 1996, a tragic event occurred in my life. My husband, only 32 years old, was killed in a motor vehicle accident. No one ever thinks this will happen to them, but it did. Our 13-year-old daughter would grow up without her father and I had lost my spouse and best friend of the past 15 years.

"On a family recommendation, I went to the offices of Liebowitz, Liebowitz & Stern. I met with Sheldon Liebowitz and immediately felt comfortable talking to "Sheldon" and knew that this was the attorney and firm that I wanted to represent me in my wrongful death suit. Sheldon took immediate action and began investigations of all the circumstances involving the accident. His team of private investigators, specialists and photographers, in addition to his own staff, left no stone unturned. They interviewed witnesses they found, took pictures that covered every angle of the scene, and along with all the other information they gathered, compiled extensive reports and accounts of the accident. Sheldon personally visited the accident scene himself on several occasions.

"During this time, Sheldon personally was more than just an attorney. His compassion and sensitivity to my daughter and me went beyond the attorney-client relationship. He was available to me 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, regardless of his personal schedule. He made the most difficult time in my life as painless as possible.

"Sheldon and the firm of Liebowitz, Liebowitz & Stern helped secure our daughter's and my future with a substantial settlement in the case, while avoiding the need to appear in a courtroom. Sheldon aggressively fought long and hard to assure that we were justly compensated for our loss."

- Joan Farissey

"In March of 1989, a young man was in the process of going through a local car wash, when suddenly, due to a gas leak, the car wash exploded and burned, trapping him inside. As a result, the person in question suffered severe injuries that almost resulted in his death.

"Shortly thereafter, Sheldon Liebowitz, the senior partner, was personally retained to handle the case. Not only was the car wash and its insurance company involved, but also involved were the manufacturers of some of the faulty equipment, their various insurance companies, as well as PSE&G, which was working on the gas line at the time of the explosion. When all was said and done, after numerous depositions and interrogatories, after locating and interviewing various expert witnesses, Liebowitz, Liebowitz & Stern was able to negotiate a huge case settlement, as well as being instrumental in helping their client obtain disability benefits through Social Security."

- Rob Cohen

"I have had the pleasure of knowing Sheldon Liebowitz for 9 years. At first, Sheldon was an attorney but he quickly became a friend of the family and mentor.

"In October of 1992, my daughters and I were in a gruesome car accident. We were sideswiped by a garbage truck. This car accident left me temporarily physically, emotionally, and mentally handicapped. My eldest daughter fractured her wrist, my middle child suffered emotional trauma and my youngest was hospitalized for several days.

"I couldn't go and find a lawyer myself, so a close friend of mine did some research. He found Sheldon to represent my case. Sheldon came to visit me at the hospital several times to discuss my case and to find out how I was recovering. Not only was he caring but he was also compassionate. He was actively on the case from minute one. His photographers took detailed photos of the car accident scene. His investigators interviewed various people. He visited the accident scene several times. He personally went over everything time and time again to make sure all the evidence was discovered and used in the case.

"During these past years, Sheldon has been more than what an attorney should be. I can look towards Sheldon for legal and personal advice. He is compassionate towards my daughters. They even have a little joke about owing him a hundred dollar bill.

"I would like to thank Sheldon and the Liebowitz, Liebowitz & Stern law firm for all their support during the aftermath of the tragic car accident in 1992. They helped my family and I got the justice we deserved."

- Rosana A. Ortiz

"I had no idea what would be involved in a matrimonial litigation when mine started several years ago. Fortunately, I was referred to Sheldon Liebowitz, who was thorough, patient and understanding with me and my family. Having heard many horror stories about law firms, I was pleasantly surprised at the professionalism showed not only by Mr. Liebowitz, but also by his assistant. They were accessible 24 hours a day. My telephone calls were always taken. In the event they were not available, my call was returned before the close of business. Divorce is very emotional and I was made to feel that my case was the most important issue at the time, not just a case number. The conclusion to the litigation was a successful. I cannot imagine what the years of litigation would have been like if it were not for Sheldon Liebowitz and his assistant."
