Reviews
I had an unbelievable experience with Michael Ackerstein. I've worked with multiple lawyers throughout my career and none of them come close to providing the level of service I received with him. His attention to detail, prompt responses, ability to sift through all of the superfluous information and provide fantastic advice on what really mattered was what stood out to me. He did so with a calming demeanor which really put me at ease. He is one of a kind, I cannot recommend Michael Ackerstein/Ackerstein Law enough.
I had an employment related agreement and was uncertain about it. Ackerstein Law reviewed it and provided me with advice that directly addressed all of my concerns. Armed with great advice, I felt comfortable and prepared to proceed with the negotiation and felt good about the final agreement. Mike is very skilled at explaining legal matters in clear, practical terms. It made a big difference for me!
After searching for an employment attorney for a few weeks, I reached out to Michael Ackerstein, and was impressed by his prompt response to me. Michael was invaluable and understanding of my situation. His advice was direct and concise. He walked me through my contracts, explained each point to me, and informed me about the potential risk areas. Couldn’t have asked for a better result. I highly recommend Michael!
I contacted Michael Ackerstein by searching online for employment lawyers in Boston, as I was new and did not know anything. Michael was very professional, very informative and extremely quick in replying to my emails and phone calls. After a few weeks of correspondence, I set up a meeting with Michael and he was very flexible and understanding of my financial situation and offered a reasonable consultation fee for 30 minutes. But he gave 1 hour of his time in offering me sound and good legal advice in a tough situation I was in. If I were to ever contact an employment lawyer, Michael Ackerstein would without a doubt be the professional I would call and no other. Thank you for the advice and peace of mind in my situation. I found Michael's quick replies to my inquiries very time saving in a situation where time was of essences and most law companies would take their time to get back to me. Thank you again.
