Stuart is a very trustworthy attorney. He communicates well and has a passion for his work. If I had to sum up in one word my thoughts on Stuart, it would be “tenacious.” I have enjoyed working with him over the years and would highly recommend him.
I have had the misfortune of engaging attorneys too many times in the last few years. Divorce, employment and business disputes that combined to make my life miserable, each with its own lawyers. Too many of these lawyers simply didn't care, and made an already bad situation much worse. Stuart Melnick is not one of those lawyers. I hired Stuart to help with a filing in commercial litigation in NY that was an offshoot of these messy issues. He was very responsive, clearly explained the arguments to be used in the filing, and very efficient. Combine that with his experience, and you get a lawyer who is truly a catch. I highly recommend him.
Stuart helped us with a litigation case. He is an excellent attorney, and a great human being as well. He offers wise counsel, and is very efficient, writing professional and complete legal documents, and representing us at the court as well. He is also honest about the the cost breakdowns and the strategic plan. I highly recommend Stuart.
Highest recommendation. Stuart was already aware of extremely complex processes & concepts with regard to electronic trading and understood the nuances of my case from the get-go. Will work with him again should any other issues arise. Excellent lawyer. Honest, very caring and smart.
My company and I were sued for a considerable sum of money by a former service provider. We retained Stuart and his firm to represent us – and it proved to be one of the best business decisions we ever made. We won the case in the lower court; we also prevailed on appeal. We were thrilled with Stuart’s performance and the results achieved. I would not hesitate to retain Stuart and his firm again and cannot recommend him enough.
Stuart is a very astute and capable attorney who works hard for his clients. He has run point for me and my company on 2 major litigations and, in each case, his representation was successful. Stuart’s also an exceptional negotiator and deal maker, who has handled a number of business transactions for me. He’s methodical and precise in his approach; most of all, he’s got great judgment and delivers results. I highly recommend him.
Stuart has acted as my counsel and has represented me and my business for many years. He is a very skilled and talented attorney, with strong business acumen. He's not about process; he's about results and doing that what it takes to achieve them -- cost-effectively and well. He's a dedicated advocate and a class act, but is tough as nails when he needs to be. He suffers no fools and tells it like it is. That sets him apart from so many other attorneys. And, in my experience, he usually gets it right. If you are seeking a lawyer, there's none better that I could recommend.
My partner and I own an art gallery in lower Manhattan. We’ve worked hard to get to where we are. Stuart has served as our counsel since we started out, almost 8 years ago. During that time, he has handled a wide variety of legal issues for us, and has done so capably and well. Stuart is very responsive, as is his staff, his work product is first-rate and his fees are reasonable. He’s also a pleasure to work with. I strongly recommend Stuart and look forward to continuing to work with him.
I engaged Stuart to represent my company in connection with a very substantial and complex business transaction. Stuart’s representation was superb. Not only did we close on target, we did so on terms more favorable than those we initially bargained for. Costs were reasonable and, throughout, Stuart and his team were accessible, responsive and a pleasure to work with. Stuart’s now my “go to” lawyer and I wholeheartedly endorse and recommend him.
Stuart is detailed, persistent, and knowledgeable. He was successful on behalf of plaintiffs in a recent litigation, and we are waiting on payment of funds. Best attorney I've ever worked with. I strongly recommend him.
