This guy is a crook. Rescheduled every court date for over two years. Then he just didn’t show up to court once he did reschedule. I ended up representing myself after I got a notice from the DMV that my license would be suspended if there was another no-​show. I called Seth Katz while I was at the Atlantic Center DMV and he said someone would be there and to call back tomorrow for an update. No one ever showed up.
Don’t use this guy. I can’t imagine what he would do with a more serious case.

Stay away for your own good.

«When a policeman taps on your window, tell them that Seth Katz is your lawyer» Not only is this an arrogant copy line that a great station like WINS should not have accepted as ad copy, but this is one of the most unprofessional firms I have run across in my lifetime in all categories and classes of trade. Yet it is my fault for thinking that if they sounded good they should be. Was totally innocent of a speeding ticket, and engaged them to assist in order to preserve a squaky clean driving record; something of which I was most proud. Yet I was not told when the trial would be as I wanted to appear, and when calling to check on this found out it had already been held and I lost. I put in for an appeal and when receiving a copy of the transcript for the trial, shared the transcript with several other attorneys and professionals who felt that the manner and appearance by an attorney from their office was beyond words: Beyond Poor! Certainly learned a lession and happy to share with others. Don’t go for the short cuts and that opening copy line on the ad should have been a warning. I called Seth Katz to complain after hearing that the trial was held without my being informed in advance, and asked him why. I told him I needed to put in an appeal, and he did not even have the presence and polish to offer to assist with this, and probably never read the transcript. He just acted like an arrogant A – H — . This memory will continue to provoke creative thoughts on options as to what would be an appropriate remedy.

I would urge anyone NOT to deal with this lawyer. He wanted me to pay him about 5 minutes into our first ever phone conversation and then when I inquired about meeting at his office to consult with him, he became incredibly indignant and his tone immediately turned hostile. Instead of discussing the matter further with me he cut me off in mid sentence and said «I suggest you find another lawyer» and then hung up on me! All because I didn’t want to give him my credit card information right away!
So, needless to say, I am going to get another lawyer and I would urge anyone else that is considering hiring Seth Katz to do the same. The impression I got from his tone and from his words was that all he cared about was getting as many people to pay him and sign a contract with as little «consultation» as possible. This is very dangerous.
However, if you like getting yelled at and then hung up on, go ahead and give Seth a call! I can personally attest that he is one of the best lawyers that I have spoken to in that regard.
