    I had an excellent experience with Zarco, Einhorn, Salkowski, P.A. Mr. Robert Einhorn and Mr. Seth Shapiro are incredibly knowledgeable and experienced in franchise law, mediation and litigation. Their expertise, combined with their team, ensures outstanding client service every step of the way. I highly recommend this firm to anyone in need of comprehensive legal counsel.

    I do not make it a habit to complain online against anyone, but my conscience will not let me move on from my recent experience with this firm. Unsuspecting clients need to know what transpired in my case and the firm needs to review as well to prevent from happening again in the future - if they even care one bit. This is an extremely unprofessional set of lawyers (the two I worked with, Bob Einhorn and Jacky Beda) that are only interested in their own advancement/profit. They have committed horrible novice mistakes in handling my case, which was a simple negotiation. Fortunately the case had a positive outcome only because I insisted several times to proceed against their irrational and misplaced advice. Without a hint of exaggeration, I literally had to insist on acting against the lawyers' advice EVERY SINGLE TIME, in order to reach a positive outcome in my case. Just listing a few of their most egregious mistakes: 1. Bad communication. Partner Bob Einhorn was always available for initial calls, but as soon as I signed up he passed my case over to associate Jacky Beda who was clearly out of his element. Never did he disclose that in the signing papers and the initial communication with him. 2 Associate Jacky Beda never wanted to engage with other party and their legal team (that were understandably playing dead) over the phone until I insisted I was going to call them myself. Turned out that was the best decision for moving the case forward. 3. Legal team did not understand basic elements of negotiation, alternatives to negotiated agreement, business sense of numbers presented, lowest acceptable negotiated amount. They even insisted on stopping negotiation and signing me up for arbitration right before opposite party was ready to engage, only because arbitration would have been way more lucrative for them. 4. Associate insisted he had a next day reply policy, even though he let emails and calls unanswered for several weeks at a time. Not once did he apologize, it was never his mistake. 5. Associate openly questioned my motives and undermined my credibility during the negotiation, not once but several times. If you are not going to trust your own client, you are not fit to be in the legal profession. Period. 6. I asked for a 20 min in person meeting with associate Jacky Beda only once in our 18 month-long interaction. He told me exactly what time to show up, only to not be available on a ridiculous excuse and have me wait 3 hours until he could finally meet me. Mind you that was the day before Christmas, I had to fly in from out of state, and had to reschedule my return arrangements because of that delay. Absolutely insane. I don't even know how I managed to have an ongoing relationship for a year and a half with this team of clowns, and managed to successfully steer them to a desirable outcome despite their best efforts to derail my case. Nobody in their right mind should have to go through that. They get zero stars from me and a huge complaint for lack of professionalism, lack of experience and knowledge in legal and professional matters, and bad communication practices. Gentlemen you have not even reached out to discuss my feedback, even though I have continually voiced my disagreements throughout our engagement. And you have not reached out to discuss these complaints even after I made them public. Shows how unprofessional you are and how much you (don't) care for your clients

    Our firm achieved a very favorable result which you have acknowledged. It is unfortunate that despite this favorable outcome with your case, you are complaining and unhappy as to our personal interaction. As with all of our clients, we work as a team and accept client input as a matter of standard protocol throughout the representation. That collaboration and expertise has brought our Firm a level of national recognition and accolades. As with you, we have achieved success and positive results for our clients for over 3 decades. Best wishes and luck in your future endeavors.

    The entire team at Zarco, Einhorn & Salkowski are phenomenal. From the very first day, the team worked tirelessly to ensure the best possible outcome in our case. They worked above and beyond in all situations and were always on the ball when it came to legal tactics and decision. They treated us like family and handled our case with care and empathy. It was a pleasure working with them and I would highly recommend their services to anyone in need of quality legal representation.

How do I choose a lawyer?

Consider the following:

  • Comfort Level – Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?
  • Credentials – How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?
  • Cost – How are the lawyer's fees structured — hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?
  • City – Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?

Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?

Here are a few to get you started:

  • How long have you been in practice?
  • How many cases like mine have you handled?
  • How often do you settle cases out of court?
  • What are your fees and costs?
  • What are the next steps?

Want to check lawyer discipline?

It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:

  • Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
  • Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
  • Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
