Testimonials

"You played such a critical role in helping me stay on the right course."

Hi Larry,

Three years ago you helped me get a deferred sentencing agreement on a misdemeanor-level MDOP charge.

Over the last month, I applied for and secured an offer for, if not my dream job, then at least a job that is a rung on the ladder I want to be on. I am doubling my salary and getting in with a very well-respected company that does innovative work. My background check just came back today and there is nothing on it, it’s smooth sailing ahead.

Thank you so much for the work you did in getting me that outcome. This could have been the kind of thing that followed me around, forced difficult conversations, and otherwise complicated my ability to capitalize on opportunities like this. You played such a critical role in helping me stay on the right course and it has led me to one of the best things that has ever happened to me. I’ll never take it for granted and continue to live in a way that proves giving me a chance was the right call. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.

Sincerely,
Max G.

"Got Myself On The Right Path"

Dear Mr. Margolis,

I really appreciate everything you did when I thought immigration was coming for me. I was pretty sad. The next morning, the guard informed me that immigration canceled my detainer. I was so excited at that point, knowing that I be getting out.

I got myself on the right path by going back to school to get my diploma, get a job, and staying out of trouble.

Thank you again!

"Thank you"

Dear , Larry

I want to thank you for all the hard work you put in to my Kevins case. My family and I cannot than you enough. Your dedication to your work as an attorney amazes me, you have shown as a lot of love, compassion & during the time my nephew was behind bars, while you was busting your butt in this case, you made sure we all remain calmed. The fist time we met you in person, I knew we all knew we made a great decision on hiring you, & seen you giving my mother & sistera hug to confort them & reassure them that you was NOT gonna give up until he was out, was the best thing I’ve witness. Thank you so much Mr.Margolis

I really admire your dedication ❤
