Andrew is an exceptional attorney with an impressive educational and professional background. Andrew has accomplished more than any other attorney at his age, having accumulated a wide range of incredibly substantive legal experience. Notably, Andrew won his first jury trial for a federal civil rights case when he was just 26 years old. With his extensive legal knowledge and skills, along with his passion, I have no doubt he will provide the greatest level of care and attention to his clients. View More

I've known Andrew since we were both first year law students at Cornell. Two things have always stuck out to me about Andrew. First, even as a student, he was a consummate professional. He was always diligent, always prepared, and he always attacked issues head-on. Second, he has wonderful people skills. You can tell when you talk to Andrew that he's truly listening and truly cares about what you're saying. He is always engaged. Those qualities make Andrew a fantastic lawyer. View More

Rating: 9 Lawyer Rating - 9 out of 10
It's rather unfair to try to rate any lawyer on a scale. Few lawyers are a "10" or a "1." That said, I rated this lawyer as a 9 because of his past successes, because of his excellent skills, work ethic, and character, and because of the great potential I see in him. View More
