I had a bad experience with the intake person. And also a very bad experience with the firm as a client. Do not recommend.

Response from owner

This is spam. This person never contacted our firm.

The lawyers at Bernabei & Kabat are remarkable. Lynne Bernabei and Alan Kabat are dedicated to their clients. They have broad and deep experience. And they are among the most creative, competent, dependable, and caring attorneys in the country. They can handle hard cases and complicated litigation against powerful opponents. And their record of getting justice for their clients is unparalleled.

Response from owner

John, thank you for your good review. It is our pleasure to work with you.

Bernabei & Kabat is a first-rate AV law firm. I used them for what seemed like a hopeless situation with a former employer. They seamlessly handled my case in a superlative manner, and the outcome exceeded anything I could have reasonably expected. I highly recommend them as employment lawyers.

Response from owner

Sheldon, thank you for your kind words. It was a pleasure representing you.

Jonathan, Bernabei & Kabat has provided no legal work for you. We can see that you have written negative reviews for 7 different law offices in the past couple of days. This review is not legitimate and we request that you remove it.

Just when I thought my career was over and just when I thought I couldn’t stand on my own, Bernabei & Kabat pulled me back in! A special thank you for all the help from my team over the years. You worked extra hard to ensure our success. You are easy to talk to, responsive, you listened, and you give helpful and concrete advice. The work you do is important and so appreciated!

Response from owner

Thank you Charlotte for your kind words. It is our pleasure to work with you.

The intake person at this firm is rude, dismissive, disrespectful and has NO compassion or empathy. I am disgusted by how they treat potential clients. One star is too much but it is required to post. I want to warn other people to stay away from this firm.

Response from owner

Bernabei & Kabat did no legal work for this person. The firm requires all potential clients to go through the intake process and pay a fee for the initial consultation. It’s unfortunate that this person chose to write a negative review because they disagreed with our intake and consultation policies.

Bernabei & Kabat did a wonderful job for me and made my life a lot less hectic, calming me down after my initial woes, then giving me a few solid bases to work with for what was going wrong. If you need an attorney that knows what they're doing and the right way to go about handling employment issues, while teaching you a lot about typical scenarios you might run into with your specific problems, B&K is definitely the right firm for you.

Response from owner

Thank you Kyle!

Being represented by Lynne Bernabei, Alan Kabat and Kristen Sinisi exceeded both my personal and professional expectations. My case stretched over 2 years, and the legal team was with me every step of the way - explaining the process, answering my questions, and finding a high qualified mediator to negotiate a settlement in 2021. They are very responsive and the entire team and staff are pleasant and professional. The fee structure is extremely reasonable for the quality of work they provide. If they agree to take your case, you will be in excellent hands.

Response from owner

Thank you Sarah for your kind remarks. It was a pleasure working with you.

Intake Secretary sarcastically rude and unprofessional at this Firm

Response from owner

Hi Mr. Richardson. Bernabei & Kabat requires all potential clients to go through the intake process and pay a fee for the initial consultation. To learn more about why we established these policies, you can visit the relevant page of our web site at https://www.bernabeipllc.com/Info-About-Consultations.shtml.<br><br>Pat has been an integral part of this firm for 17 years, and is uniformly liked and respected by our clients. It’s unfortunate that you chose to lash out at her because you disagree with our intake and consultation policies. She was simply explaining the process that we require all potential clients to follow.<br><br>We wish you the best in finding a firm that better fits your expectations and requirements.

As a fellow attorney (I didn’t let them know this), their intake feels like dealing with a used car salesman. I approached them with an workplace discrimination situation involving my daughter. After several hits/misses with their office, and being told three times by the intake person that she had to eat her lunch, the times I did finally talk to her I found her quite dismissive, curt and seemingly agitated with the discussion. She did rudely call back with “a courtesy call” to say they would not be able to assist. Even that call was rough—certainly NOT courteous.

Response from owner

Hi Ms. Sanders. We don't have a record of any intake calls with anyone with your name. Could you please call me to discuss the details of what happened with your intake? 202-745-1942. Thanks, Pete Whelan

Bernabei & Kabot is a first-rate law firm. Very professional, creative in their approach and they are a pleasure to work with. Partners are hands-on, very engaged and approachable on an on-going basis. They did a fabulous job managing and settling my discrimination case. Their fees are very reasonable are they are conservative with billing their time. It was a pleasure working with them from start to finish. I highly recommend this law firm!

Response from owner

Thank you for your kind words, Mary. We were happy to represent you and glad we could help. - Lynne and Michael

To say I have been fortunate to have Lynne & Alan represent me in my issue would be a huge understatement! Their wealth of knowledge,expertise & professionalism is just amazing. From the first meeting with Lynne & Alan I knew I wanted to retain their services as I felt very comfortable talking to them. They fully understood my issues and were very straight forward in their dealings with me. From the get go they knew exactly how to approach my issue in addition to being very attentive & responsive to my queries every step of the way. Based on my personal experience,retaining their services was definitely well worth it for me.They are simply EVERYTHING YOU WOULD WANT IN YOUR ATTORNEYS.

I have never experienced a more sincerely, professional and caring staff anywhere ever. I highly recommend them. Not only are they excellent, they will exceed any expectations you might have.

Several months ago, l met with Peter Whelan and Michael Ellement to consult with them about my employment situation. Both attorneys carefully reviewed the evidence of record, and listened to my recollection of events before giving me advice about my case. Overall, I found my interactions with Mr. Whelan and Mr. Ellement to be pleasant and informative. Although I am currently represented by a different firm, I encourage prospective clients to consider Bernabei & Kabat for their legal needs.

Response from owner

I'm glad we were able to offer a useful perspective on your situation. Thanks for the review! - Pete

They are wonderfully helpful. Spoke directly with Peter Whelan, Partner and Michael Ellement, Associate. If I choose to move forward with my issue I will absolutely retain them for ongoing legal counsel. I felt very comfortable speaking with them, they really heard and understood my concerns, and clarified relevant laws in a very easy to understand way.

Response from owner

Thanks for the review, Anya. I hope you don't need to retain us, but looking forward to working with you if you do! - Pete
