The testimonials below come from clients or former clients of the firm. Results may vary depending on your particular facts and legal circumstances.

When I was thinking of retaining a law firm for a civil suit against my former employer, I had no idea how to find the best firm to represent me.  I researched law firms within my area, and decided to retain Deutsch Atkins & Kleinfeldt, P.C. in Hackensack, NJ.  My reason for retaining them was due to the favorable and consistent reviews that were written by previous clients – they were all similar in that the lawyers had the best success rates but above all had their clients best interests at heart. So I’d like to pay this forward for the next person that may be in the same situation and hope that my comments might ease their anxiety and make them feel confident to select Deutsch Atkins & Kleinfeldt, P.C.

Bruce Atkins and Diane Peyser worked with me on my case – both top notch lawyers, having years of experience, always answering my phone calls and emails. To top it off, all of the paralegals, staff and especially Barbara, the intake coordinator and receptionist, made me feel like the one and only, listening to all of my concerns, answering all my questions, and calming me down when I needed that TLC.  They were patient and well aware of the emotional roller coaster of the journey.

The process of taking a firm to court was daunting but Bruce and Diane consistently explained the steps in the process, what would occur and when, shared the probable outcomes and offered their expertise so I felt in the know and confident of the decisions.  They broke down all the “legalese” so I knew exactly what was going on.  They did not sugar coat anything but instead kept me in the loop every step of the way, and set expectations and explanations before I had the questions.  They worked with me as a team and were available to me all the time. It is a team effort.  As a client, you must put the work in too – meeting their deadlines, and mentioning all the facts that might affect your case.

I recommend to the next person to read all of the reviews and realize that by retaining Bruce Atkins and the firm, you are in the best possible hands to handle your situation.

I had the pleasure of being represented by Bruce L. Atkins, Esq. in an employment litigation matter. From start to finish, Bruce was professional, responsive, and incredibly strategic. He took the time to understand my situation, kept me informed throughout the process, and ultimately secured a very favorable settlement. I’m grateful for his hard work and strong advocacy, and I highly recommend him to anyone facing a similar legal challenge.

Professionally and personally, I’ve known Bruce Atkins for many years.
His insight, experience, employment law expertise and his willingness to support and/or protect workers of all professions and levels has proven to be extremely valuable to me and my work within Human Resources and Talent Acquisition.
When considering one’s career objectives, employment contracts, non-competes, company disclosures, buy-outs, compensation packages, terminations, harassment, lawsuits and the like, Bruce is someone to connect with to address those concerns.
Engaging, supportive, vastly knowledgeable, and most importantly, an advocate who will fight on one’s behalf.
With all that is going on in the workplace today, how someone is treated by their employer or conducts themselves in their daily job, Bruce Atkins has your back.

I retained Bruce Atkins for an employment related matter. Bruce and his entire team are honest, professional, responsive, and knowledgeable. He really takes the time to guide his clients through a tough situation, and explain all avenues. He certainly has no fear of large corporate entities; and as a client, always feels like your best interest is his main focus. Although the road can be long, he never stops fighting for your interests. I can’t praise him enough, and highly recommend him and his team to anyone! If you want confidence and reassurance that your matter will be handled with a successful outcome, Bruce is your attorney. He is upfront and honest every step of the way leading you to the best realistic outcome possible. I am extremely satisfied with the outcome of my case. If I had to do it all over again, I would choose Bruce again and again!

I spoke to Diane Peyser who helped me clearly understand how to navigate my very difficult situation. Her expertise was exemplary, and her ability to help calm my concerns was excellent. My blood pressure literally went down after speaking with her. Thanks, Diane!

Unfortunately I have had to seek legal counsel on several occasions over the past 20 years. Fortunately I selected the firm of Deutsch Atkins & Kleinfeldt, P.C. to represent my interests on these occasions. In the 1990’s, Mr. Bruce Atkins represented me on an employment issue up to the Supreme Court of The State of New Jersey. The result was the establishment of a new law … “Bernard versus IMI”, testimony to the successful representation of my case by Mr. Atkins. In 2013, Mr. Atkins was my legal counsel in a five year action resulting from personal property damages and personal hardships. Over this entire time period, Mr. Atkins again demonstrated his commitment in representing my interests, tenacity to our established goals, flexibility in his strategic planning as demands warranted, and final negotiation of a agreeable settlement.

Bruce Atkins and everyone at the firm are knowledgeable, diligent, responsible and caring. I have known the firm for 40+ years and always have received the best advice, protection and, most important, results. Not only have they represented me for a wide variety of issues ( life can be that way ) but they successfully represented my dad before me. I trust Bruce and his staff because I’ve seen what they can do. If you are reading this you are probably considering hiring them. Don’t hesitate.

Bruce Atkins & Staff were instrumental in getting me a satisfactory settlement against my employer for several employment issues. Staff was very professional and quick to respond.

Mr. Atkins is a complete professional. He drafted me an iron clad 2 year contract and was available for all questions and follow-up. He also successfully guided me thru hardships at my previous employer.

I found my attorneys to be skilled and ethical. They were always available, responded quickly and made communications easy. I especially appreciated their coaching since I did not have prior knowledge and familiarities with the law or the ways the legal system operates.

Bruce was my support system throughout this process. When I was in need of help, he was there for me (before I was even an official client). He was able to easily identify countless laws being broken after our initial consult and executed a foolproof remedy. The TLC that this firm provided to me was what got me through the hard times. Deutsch Atkins & Kleinfeldt, P.C. won this case on my behalf and gave me back the strength I temporarily lost. I will be forever grateful for their assistance and authentic care.

If you are looking for a good attorney, look no further. This law firm not only does their job well, but they actually care for their clients. I am extremely happy with the results of my case and feel so blessed that I was able to find an attorney like Neil Deutsch. If he takes your case you should consider yourself blessed. He will do an amazing job with compassion that is rarely found in this profession or others!!!
