February 3, 2025 at 6:32 pmWith the increasingly predatory behaviors of insurance companies in the wake of wholesale deregulation, knowledgeable advocates like Mr. Seitelman are invaluable in negotiating the bureaucratic morass of policy exclusions and arbitrary cancellations. In our case involving the latter, Mr. Seitelman provided clear advice as to what legal steps were worth taking and how we might go about obtaining coverage after losing our policy due to a legitimate claim. We’re very grateful for his help and appreciate the prompt and friendly communication we had with Mr Seitelman, Sherry and his staff. Having found him via the NY State Bar Association Legal Referral Service, we also wholeheartedly recommend them as a productive starting point in all legal matters.
