Hal is seriously the best. I’m trying to find the best words to explain how happy I am with the outcome of things! He works fast, efficiently, and maintains great communication.

Outstanding Attorney – Highly Recommend Hal Garfinkel From the very first phone call, Hal Garfinkel proved to be exactly what our family needed—responsive, compassionate, and deeply committed. He answered my call immediately, listened to our urgent situation, and took swift action when my son was locked up with no resolution in sight. Mr. Garfinkel not only made a court appearance on my son’s behalf but went above and beyond to get the case completely thrown out. Thanks to his efforts, my son’s second chance probation was reinstated—something we never thought possible. His services were reasonably priced, and he handled our case as if it were his own family in need. We are truly grateful for the dedication and professionalism he displayed. If you’re looking for an honest, effective attorney who truly cares, I wholeheartedly recommend Hal Garfinkel. He’s a blessing during difficult times.

Hal is an exceptional lawyer and an even more remarkable person. Honestly, he’s magic. He was there for us every step of the way—steadfast, transparent, and always on time.

My family and I are beyond greatful for everything Mr. Garfinkle did for us. Last week we concluded an almost four year process to conclude my brother's case. His case was very complex, he had everything stacked against him. He showed up to court more times than I can count, while he was also negotiating and standing up for my brother behind the scenes. He is always just a text or call away if you have any questions. He is the one that personally takes care of you, you don't have to go through other staff members to get an answer. I called many law firms before someone referred us to Mr. Garfinkle, and most attorneys had extremely high fees with very large retainers. We were starting to lose hope when we spoke to him. He offered us payments that were accessible to us, and although the case stretched out more than we would have imagined he didn't charge us an additional fee. Attorneys that we didn't hire implied that is was likely a cheaper attorney would not give us a good resolution for the case. They were mistaken, he took care of us. Given the circumstances of the case, and our financial resources it's very unlikely someone would have reached a better conclusion. If you are on the fence about what attorney to entrust your case, know that Mr. Garfinkle is knowledgeable, relentless and doesn't take your trust in him lightly.

I contacted Hal M. Garfinkel regarding an upcoming traffic violation. He phoned me within the hour and explained that I do not need to consult a lawyer for this court appearance. I was encouraged by his kind, knowledgeable and prompt response.


Thankful for Hal Garfinkel’s diligence in my loved one’s case.

I would like to say Thank you for your service for Joseph Jones he was pleased with your work. And would suggest you to others

I was found with two firearms illegally during a routine traffic stop and was charged with possession of two firearms with attachments. Hal beat the case—no parole or anything. Everything was dismissed. HAL IS THE BEST IN THE STATE !!!

I hired Harold Garfinkel for my legal service and it was pleasure working with him. He got good connections and he got lots of years of experience. He is THE BEST one in his field. I would hire him again if I ever need lawyer, which I hope that will never happen.👍 Keep up the good work Hal.
