Jeffery of the borrel & Riso LLP was the most unprofessional attorney I have ever had the displeasure of retaining. He was extremely lackadaisical in his work ethics. Often times I had to execute basic task in which he was task/required to do based on retainer agreement. In my opinion he was/has grown accustomed to collecting payments via retainer agreement whilst executing little work as it pertains to legal matters. He would’ve been relieve of his legal responsibility had it not been the amount of financial resources that was invested initially. I was extremely disappointed with his ratio, of managing my financial resources to the output is his work. I was able to accomplish more on my own as opposed to his legal representation. My no means this is directed to his character but more so his work ethics. If I ever had a need for legal representation he would be the very last I seek. I have had much better experience with other law firms with Staten Island for lesser cost.
Owner response
I am surprised to hear that you had a problem with our legal services considering we successfully settled your legal issues more than three and a half years ago. You advised the Court that you were satisfied with our services and the settlement. Our successful results are indicative of the work ethic that we provided to you and to all of our clients. If you had an issue with our billing or services over the more than two years we represented you it would have been reasonable to discuss those issues with us at that time instead of writing this review so many years after the fact. I provided you with an itemized bill for all the services that were performed, which included multiple legal matters, one of which required extensive trial preparation prior to finally settling. It’s frankly hard to respond further when this matter has been closed for more than three and a half years.
Jeff Borell is an outstanding attorney who exceeded all my expectations during my first home purchase. His expertise and professionalism were truly remarkable, guiding me through the complexities of real estate transactions with patience and precision. Not only has Jeff previously provided invaluable legal counsel for personal matters, but he was particularly exceptional in supporting me as a first-time homebuyer. His deep knowledge, combined with his compassionate and respectful approach, made what could have been an intimidating process feel smooth and manageable. I am thoroughly impressed and can confidently recommend Jeff Borell to anyone seeking top-tier legal representation. Without hesitation, I will absolutely engage his services for any future legal needs.
Jeff Borrell was an outstanding attorney for our real estate transaction. He provided excellent advice, was very responsive to our questions, and made the sale of our house a smooth process. We highly recommend him.
I had a fantastic experience with Mr.Riso In my divorce proceedings. My ex-wife hired him and he lied and told her I would only get less than half of what I did. Thanks to Mr Riso I was able to get everything I was entitled to by law without hiring a lawyer. It was almost like dude was my lawyer. Highly recommend
Was very happy with the services Borrell and Riso provided while handling my estate work. Would recommend their legal services. As a senior citizen he explained difficult legal services in a way that was easy for me to understand.
I worked with Jeffrey Borrell, Esq. recently on a very sensitive estate issue. Jeffrey is extremely knowledgeable in this area. Jeffery is a true professional and knows the law. Jeffrey was so kind and patient with me. He answered all of my many questions., he even consoled me when I got emotional! Jeffrey conferenced with me often, nothing I asked was too much. In the end Jeffrey was very successful in resolving my case. I will always recommend Jeffrey Borrell Esq. he is a great Attorney. Thank you Jeffrey for everything.
I recently had a will prepared, the staff was amazing and Jeffrey reviewed entire will with me making certain I understood entire document. They were reasonably priced and extremely professional. I would use them for all future services.
Donna is the point person, who provided so much professionalism, compassion, and support to the matters. The pandemic added another layer of strain to an already tenuous matter. Divorce is a slow death, and the time the courts were closed left is in limbo. The team communications remained and assured me that they would help me get through a season of closure and begin the next chapter of my life. We didn't get an they loved happily ever ending but the matter was amicable because of this team's patience and support. God bless you.
used Borelli a few years ago for a property dispute. he submitted some paperwork to the court, and that was it after charging me thousands of dollars. Never fought for me and agreed to a summary judgment by the judge without hearing my case.
Owner response
There is no one named Borelli at our firm, so we believe this reviewer has the wrong law office.
I recently had the pleasure of working with Jeff Borrell for the purchase of my first home. Jeff is extremely professional and handled the negotiation of my home purchase with my best interest in mind. I was confident that I was protected both legally and financially throughout the entire process. I highly recommend working with Jeff for his expertise of real estate transactions and trustworthy service!
