Joan Garrett was my attorney for the sale of my home. Joan and Maria Jones were phenomenal through the whole process. They always answered my emails and calls quickly and were not only extremely professional, but they were also kind and personable.

Subject: Darren H. Fairlie, Esq.

To Whom It May Concern:

It is with great pleasure that I provide this reference for Mr. Darren H. Fairlie, Esq. I have known Mr. Fairlie for fifteen years and consider him to be not only a hardworking and extremely loyal legal professional but also a personal friend. He is an exceptional individual and well regarded personally and professionally by his peers and clients.

Mr. Fairlie has represented me in numerous Dutchess County Supreme Court civil lawsuits, motions and appeals. Through his hard work, thoroughness, legal analytic abilities, diligence and persistence, he managed to successfully conclude all legal matters for which he was retained in my favor in a fair and honest manner, some of which were very factually contentious and legally complicated.

Mr. Fairlie’s extensive and practical experience doing legal research and preparing a variety of well written, winning court submissions for me related to contract and civil procedures is an ideal indicator of his legal advocacy skills. Any work he would do for clients or the Courts will be done honestly, effectively and efficiently.

Mr. Fairlie has a keen ability to conduct conferences with both attorneys and parties resulting in fair and just settlements that avoid costly client fees and waste valuable Court time. He lives and breathes the provisions of the New York Lawyer’s Code of Professional Ethics to provide clients with zealous representation and to pursue lawsuits with competence and diligence.

Both clients and the Courts are well served by Mr. Fairlie’s work ethic and his on-going efforts of resolving issues and improving the quality of life of individuals and the community at large via the proper and honest application of the law.

Sincerely,

James P. McGee

I have worked with the team at SRDD for years , Darren Fairlie's attention to small details has helped make all the difference.

My experience with Darren Fairlie, and SRDD has been very positive. While it will never be enjoyable to need legal counsel, Darren brings clear communication, responsiveness, experience and an overall sense of calm to any tough situation.

We use Jessica Glass for all our Attorney needs from Real Estate to litigation to business contracts. She is so attentive and her focus on detail is excellent. She always gets back to us in a timely fashion and communication within her team is fabulous. I highly recommended Jessica and her team for any Attorney need.

As a Real Estate Broker, I have had the pleasure of working with Jessica Glass, from SRDD Law on many real estate transactions. SRDD and Jessica have proved time and time again, how committed they are to their clients. In addition to real estate, I've use SRDD Law for my business needs. SRDD is a law firm you can depend on.

The firm is the utmost in professionalism, from the receptionist to accounting and, of course, the Lawyers. Lorraine was great!! She kept me informed through every step of my case and insured that my best interests were the focal point.

I have had an excellent experience with Stenger, Roberts, Davis and Diamond. I am currently working with one of their attorney's, Lorraine McGrane. Along with her expertise in the field of Special Education Law, Ms. McGrane is committed to making parents feel both understood and empowered. It is not an exaggeration to say this has been life changing for both me and my child.

Joan Garrett represented me in a recent housing closing. I have bought and sold many properties and my experience with Joan as my attorney was one of the best. Through the somewhat challenging contract negotiation and closing, Joan was a consummate professional. Joan and her assistant always responded quickly to my inquiries and were able to address calmly all the issues raised during the sale process. I would highly recommend Joan.

My sister's and I had a meeting with Stephen Diamond. He represented our elderly mother at the time. I can only say that he was arrogant, rude, condescending, insulting and crude. I have no idea how or why this man is a partner in a law firm. Our experience with him was absolutely the worst, he made me want to punch him in the face. I'm sure that had this meeting been with a room filled with an elderly woman's sons, our treatment and our experience would have been very different. He made his disdain for women very clear. Stay away from this man, and any firm that would have him work for them, or give him a partnership. My mother's business with Mr. Diamond and this firm was dissolved ASAP!

Excellent firm. Tom Davis & Jessica Glass Esq have worked primarily with me and handled diverse matters from home closings, adoption / guardianship, estate planning, and corporate matters. Support staff has also gone above and beyond!

My fiance and I recently used SRDD as our attorney for closing on our first house and we couldn't be happier. We worked with Joan, Maria and Meghan. They were all incredibly knowledgeable and helpful through our entire home buying process. Everyone that we spoke to at SRDD was kind, patient and organized. Home buying is stressful but SRDD made it feel much easier. We are so thankful for all of these ladies for helping us on the most expensive day of our lives.

Seems okay, make you feel rushed though

Got the job done.

Jim and Sharon Herring have used this accommodating law firm for many different legal issues from the simple things such as wills and property transfer to the complicated negotiations that come up in their business. When you need a clear head and a strong advocate, this is the firm to trust. The Herring's favorite lawyers are Ken Stenger and Steve Diamond. We highly recommend them.
