Sincerely,

P.S. Please thank Chris for me |

| Lynn's Testimonial |
 "I have had to use your Firm 2 times within the last 10 years. First I would like to tell you about one of two employees which without them I don't know what I would have done. First Judy Greenough, has been a God send. She has helped me with both my cases with your firm and she has been great. She has guided me through some very rough times, the doctors visits, the operations, insurance companies, etc. When I had some very bad weeks she was always there for me, explaining what would come next and what we needed to do to help me feel better. I feel as if she is a daughter to me, we have shared laughs and some tears but in the end she has been an angel to me. Your Firm should be proud to have an employee that takes so much interest in the clients that you handle.
Your second employee which I have a lot of respect for is Gustavo Alzugaray. This last case of mine had quite a few different lawyers working on it. They were all very nice but until Gustavo took over I really didn't know what was going on. This man explained everything to me, he called me from his home at
7:00PM to inform me of what was going on and what to expect next. He has gone the extra mile to help me. He has even gone as far as to explain part of my workers' comp, which is not part of his duties, but I was not aware of some aspects and he did clear it up for me.
Like I said, your Firm should be proud of the two employees which I mentioned. They make you feel like you are the only person that has a problem and they will do all they can to resolve it. So from the bottom of my heart I would like to Thank You so very much for all the help your firm has given me."
Thank you,
Lynn S. |

 "Hi. My name is Cindy. I have actually used Finkelstein & Partners twice and I've been very satisfied both times. They have always made me feel very at ease. They have answered any and all of my questions about the case whether it's during the day or in the middle of the night. They have made me feel very much like one of the family. I would enthusiastically recommend F&P to anyone who has recently been in an accident." |

| Doreen's Testimonial |
 "Hi. My name is Doreen. I was in a car accident and I called Finkelstein & Partners. They gave me an appointment immediately with attorney Ronald Rosenkranz. We tried to settle my case for two years but without success. Eventually, we were forced to take the suit to trial. I'm very, very pleased with the verdict I received. I don't have to worry about my three children's college education. It's unbelievable how much the jury awarded me and I owe it all to my attorney." |

| John's Testimonial |
 "I was in an accident and after speaking with a couple of other law firms, I phoned Finkelstein & Partners. They were very professional from the first phone call. They have always been there for me throughout the whole legal process. In the end I believe I received a very fair settlement. It's a great firm." |

| Susan's Testimonial |
 "The insurance companies are not looking out for you and they don't want to take care of you. Unfortunately, you need someone on your side. Someone who knows how to work around and get you what you deserve. Finkelstein & PARTNERS does just that. |

| Yvonne's Testimonial |
 "I was in a very bad car accident and I have to say that unless you've ever been in one, you don't realize that nothing is more important than getting better. The F&P staff came to the hospital when I was unable to leave. They took care of all of the paperwork. I was kept informed every step of the way. I didn't have to worry about a thing because I knew they were doing what's best for me." |

| Alice's Testimonial |
| "I would like to thank you all that worked so hard for me during the last six years. I received the money and it didn't help the pain that I am in but I am hoping for a new kind of life. You all did a great job and I can always say the help I received when I called was always the best and friendliest. Thank you so much for you help." |

| Laureen's Testimonial |
| "I wanted to take a few minutes and tell you how pleased I have been with the way your organization has handled our personal injury claim. In September, my husband was in a serious motorcycle accident. After the accident, I had no intention of contacting your firm; however, one of your employees, Ms. Zoraida Seda, talked me into contacting your firm. Ms.Seda obtained a copy of the accident report and visited my home several times to follow up on my husband.
Attorney Elyssa Fried handled our case and did an excellent job bringing it to closure quickly. Her assistant, Melissa Nelson, stayed in touch with us and kept us updated as to the progress of the case.
The reason I was initially reluctant to obtain legal services is that I had enough stress in my life after the accident. I thought pursuing legal action would consume too much of my time and add additional stress into our lives. Instead, your staff did everything, only requiring a few signatures from my husband and me, and we were able to concentrate on getting him healthy again. Your staff was extremely professional and genuinely concerned as to his progress.
The suit has been settled to our satisfaction at this point, we are just waiting for the settlement process to conclude. In the meantime, I just wanted to make sure that I thanked Attorney Elyssa Fried, Ms. Seda and Ms. Nelson. I honestly can say that I hope never to need the services of your firm again; however, in the event that we do, it is nice to know that you have such a professional and hard-working staff." |

| "The office has always been extremely helpful and informative to me.
They made me perfectly comfortable speaking about the details of my accident and all my feelings along the way during the course of time.
David Gross and Patty Burke are the most supportive professional people that have been in my life since the accident. The office is right down from my home and they were courteous, caring and friendly along the way, which helped tremendously through this time!
Thank you!
P.S. The office of Ron Rosenkranz and Lisa Kraiza are also informative and supportive, we've just been recently acquainted! Thank you."

| Mr. Finkelstein:
I wanted to tell you in writing how very impressed my wife and I am of Mr. George Levy.
From the opening statements of our trial, which were about 20-25 minutes of excellently prepared facts from Mr. Levy, compared to the 10 minutes of confusion of the opposing council. Then he was able to get both of my doctors to explain the major amount of pain I have been suffering for the last 5 years and that I will continue living with this pain permanently for the rest of my life.
Mr. Levy's closing argument once again was extremely well prepared and summed up our case so well that when he was finished even the judge agreed that I was in no way at fault for the accident. And during deliberations the only piece of evidence out of all that there was, the jury only asked to see the paperwork Mr. Levy had on figures for my future loss wages.
Mr. Levy is to be commended for an excellent job. Thank you for assigning him to handle our case."

| Susan and Paul's Testimonial |
| "My husband and I were in a motor vehicle accident in September 1997. We were hit by a drunk driver. I was injured and had two subsequent shoulder surgeries. Thankfully, my husband was not injured.
We retained the Finkelstein & Partners law firm to represent us. We met our attorney, Julio Urrutia, at the EBT. Julio was very helpful in discussing our case with us and explaining the progress of our case. We were very lucky to have Julio as our attorney and glad that we chose to be represented by the Finkelstein law firm.
We reached a settlement on the date of the trial at the courthouse prior to jury selection. My husband and i are both very happy with the settlement that we reached and know that we would have received much less were it not for Julio's expert advice. No amount of money will ever make up for what we have lost because of this accident, but we can begin to rebuild our lives with this settlement. Julio was instrumental in assisting us in reaching this point.
We extend our appreciation to Julio and the Finkelstein law firm for what they have done for us and would highly recommend your firm to others." |

| "This letter is to say thank you to your firm for the handling of my case in which I was in a car accident on October 17, 1996. Over the past 5 years, your organization has done an excellent job of keeping me up-to-date on everything to do with my case and although the end result was a win for all of us I would have written this letter either way.
I would definitely recommend your firm to anyone, but in particular I would recommend Steve Shultz. I can't say enough about Steve and the manner in which he handled himself. Not only is he a great attorney, but also professional, understanding and extremely supportive. Steve made me feel at all times that I was important. He made himself available for my calls all during the week of the trial, day or night and even on the weekends. He is a great asset to your firm and I feel very fortunate to have been represented by him.
In closing I just want to thank you all and let you know that the call I made to your firm 5 years ago was the smartest call I ever made."

| Dear Andrew:
How do you really thank someone for $1.2 million?! This is definitely not a situation that I thought I'd be in or even come close to.
I guess I'd just like you to know how impressed I was with your firm and how comfortable I felt. For being one of the largest law firms in the country, I was surprised at the personal touch and golden treatment that I received.
You have given both my family and me (especially my dad, as I'm sure you can tell) an incredible peace of mind for my future.
Thank you for all that you and your firm has done."

| Dear Sir:
In February 2000 I was involved in a fall down accident where I had tripped over a raised section of the sidewalk and sustained a fracture to my right wrist. I came to your firm after seeing your advertisement on the TV. I received my settlement check and wanted to thank all of you who were connected with my case which were many.
I certainly will recommend your firm to anyone who needs your services. I was more than please with the outcome. Once again, many thanks!!!" |

| "In September 2000, I sustained a serious and traumatic fall in the Freihoffer's outlet store in North Greenbush, NY. That fall left my face permanently scarred.
Thanks to the efforts of your firm, I was compensated for my loss. I especially appreciate the thoroughness and tenacity of attorney, Todd Sardella and his assistants, who made the entire legal process painless. I feel that Todd negotiated a reasonable settlement for me for which I am grateful.
I would also like to thank your Troy office for their expediting my final settlement. Again, many thanks to your firm and professional staff."

| Dear Sir:
In October 1999 I was involved in a head-on collision with an elderly gentleman going the wrong way, on the Latham Traffic Circle in Latham, NY. I was referred to your firm by my son, who also has a pending lawsuit with your firm. I just wanted to say thank you to the team assigned to my case. Their professionalism and courtesies were outstanding! Once again, many thanks!!!" |

| Victoria's Testimonial |
| Dear Mr. Finkelstein,
I am a former client involved in a MVA on September 10, 1999 my injuries were hernatied C5-C7 cervical discs, herniated lumbar discs, and rotator cuff injuries. My experience of suffering these injuries due to someone's negligent driving habits destroyed my life in a matter of seconds.
I lost both my jobs as an Adminstrative Assistant, Pharmacy Technician and haven't been well enough to work. My son and I have been separated due to my health and he is living in California with my ex husband. I have had sole custody of my son since he was two years old, so along with my medical injuries this separation has been painful for both of us.
I have suffered medically and emotionally through this ordeal of ongoing cervical steroid injections, nerve decompression and partial removal of my rotator cuff.
I am fortunate for having your law firm on my side through this painful ordeal, especially having Debra J. Reisenman as my attorney. Debra is very professional, knowledgeable and highly efficient in keeping a client updated on their case. I found her to be a truly caring attorney and one who is very highly committed to her profession as an attorney. Debra's attention to details and her thoroughness truly made the difference in my case and my financial compensation for my injuries. My fiancee who was a client of Debra's, referred me to your law firm. I was so impressed with the way she kept him informed on the status of his case that I chose her as my attorney.
She has been truly inspirational to me through this medical ordeal through her kind, caring, compassionate and personable attitude. The personal touch when given, speaks VOLUMES about your law firm, who each of you are as attorneys and how committed you are to your client's. Your best advertisement of your law firm is represented by those attorney's you choose who are devoted to serving the community and making a tremendous impact on their client's lives.
Pursuing my case meant more to me than just the financial compensation for my injuries, it was about making the person whom caused this accident accountable for their negligent behavior and how it affected my life.
After my medical nightmare, I learned many things about being as selective in my medical care and I was about obtaining a competent law firm to represent me for my personal injury case. I feel my experience with your law firm and with Debra J. Reisenman superceded any of my expectations.
I wanted to take this opportunity to let you know personally on my experience as a client of Debra J. Reisenman because I feel she is truly an asset to your law firm.
Much of the beauty in life is found in caring people like Debra who make a true impact on someone's life by representing your law firm.
This experience has a very happy ending, my fiancee and I got married, and in June my son will join us as a family. In closing I would like you to know how my life has changed due to my settlement funds. We have purchased a new home for our family. Ours is a very happy beginning.
I hope I am never injured again, however I am forever grateful having Finkelstein & Partners being on the job and on my side during my case. Thank you for being a law firm whom takes such tremendous care in making a difference in a client's life. I plan on always recommending your law firm to my family, friends and who ever I meet who is injured. |

 "This firm is at the top of it's field. If a good settlement is to be received, one looks to this firm immediately. I've sent a number of clients here and each time I've been thrilled and amazed with the settlement they've gotten." |

 "All of the cases that I've ever sent them over a long number of years, they have done what I would regard as an outstanding job. They've received recoveries on cases that I didn't think they'd ever get!" |

| John & Sue's Testimonial |
| "We would like to thank you, Tom and Nora for the many hours of incredible work that you expended on our daughter, June's, lawsuit. We know that June has written to each of you to express her thanks, but Sue and I wanted to personally thank you, also.
When I first walked into your offices some four and one half years ago, I asked for a consultation and had no idea of how quickly and successfully the case would progress, or for that matter, that there even would be a case. Later that same day I was told by one of your associates that there might be a case. A short time, a matter of a few short days, June and I were sitting with Frank Navarra who told us that the partners would be discussing the case that there was a good possibility that your firm would take it. Once you accepted the case we knew that you would stick with us until the very end. The rest, as they say, is history!
From the very first moment that we entered your front door we were treated with dignity, respect and extreme courtesy by all members of your firm with whom we came in contact. We would like to give a special mention to those lovely ladies at the front desk who always greeted us with a smile and prompt service each time we came in. They are the first persons one meets when entering your firm and they are uniquely suited for the sensitive and important job they perform.
We were also impressed by the fact that, although the plaintiff was June and you had no obligation to keep us informed or even consider our opinion, you always did both. I guess all of you could see from the beginning that our only agenda was to get the best for June and you knew from the get go that you could trust us. We knew, as well, that we could trust you.
We want you to know two things: 1. What you obtained for June is and will continue to be properly invested and will serve her well for the rest of her life; 2. You have given Sue and me tremendous peace of mind. We know that when we are no longer in the picture, June's future will still be secure. There is no way that words can express our gratitude.
Thank you, |

| Dear Mr. Finkelstein,
"I am taking the time to write this letter to let you know what an extremely professional and diligent job my attorney and friend Steve Schultz did for my family and me.
In my opinion we totally dominated at trial. Steve covered all the basis and it was a pleasure to watch him at work.
The last 4 plus years have been extremely painful and very stressful for us but your firm has been there and I feel I have made the best out of a very bad situation that I am in. Once again I want to thank Steve, Michelle and Cindy for being there for us." |

| Patrick's Testimonial |
| To whom it may concern:
I was very pleased with the way Chad and Dave handled my case. Their attitude and helpful way was excellent. Also I was really shocked at the amount of my settlement. I didn't think I'd get as much as I did. Like the old saying states, "Good things come to those who wait". Each time I talked to them they would go over everything in detail also they would explain everything. They would keep me posted on the case by phone or mail. They were very pleasant and understanding and easy to talk to. I would recommend them to anyone who's seeking an attorney. Even my wife says," I wished I'd had your attorney when I got hurt a while back instead of the attorney I had". |
