Reviews

This firm is so unlike my (admittedly minimal) experience of working with law firms, in that exchanges were relaxed, friendly, and easy. On this most recent engagement, there was minimal actual law work being done; they were more of legal liaison. But this was all done with close care and attention, as if they cared. It is not the first time I've used this firm, and they would be my first call if ever needed.
I was very pleased with the professionalism and responsiveness of Attorney Monica Shah. She negotiated my contract, and in hindsight, it turned out to be the best move I could have made. After I started my new job, an attempt was made to change the terms of my employment, but I had my contract to back me up. Had I not done that, I would have had to tolerate conditions that would have made my job impossible.
I reached out to Zalkind, Duncan & Bernstein in a moment of true crisis. From my first conversation with Mr. Duncan, he was attentive and thorough. Throughout my case--which lasted much longer than either of us expected--he was communicative and detail-oriented. I can't thank Dr. Duncan enough and recommend the expertise of the Zalkind, Duncan & Bernstein team.
ZDB has provided a gold standard of service, giving me peace of mind in order to get through a very difficult time. I recommend them to the highest regard and without reservation.
"Excellence personified" are the words that come to mind when I think of Monica Shah and Ana Munoz. I worked with them on a deeply personal employment matter and they were outstanding. From my first contact with Attorney Shah, where she immediately put me at ease, empathizing in a way that was both affirming and sobering, to her partnership with Attorney Munoz, I was both moved and impressed. In my humble opinion, Monica is a powerhouse attorney with laser focus on details - both legal and circumstantial, excellent listening and communication skills, yet attentive to my emotional state in the most respectful way. She is both strategic and practical in her approach and helped me to sort out my feelings from the facts as we worked together. She really knows her stuff! Ana, a warm, funny, steady and equally skilled attorney made me feel heard and protected. It was clear she was always rooting for me and I felt so safe and confident. She asked questions that I never thought of and made suggestions that were very impactful. I really appreciated her patience and advocacy. Together they are what I call "a plaintiffs dream team"! They have the right mix of aggression, assertiveness, tenacity and respect for the law and those involved. They are balanced and work with the highest level of integrity. Their assistant, Sarah, was always kind, responsive, and efficient, rounding out my very positive experience with Zalkind Duncan & Bernstein. My experience was overwhelming positive - Monica and her team are the best at what they do and everyone should be so fortunate to work with them as I was.
