From start to finish, Maddie kept my priorities and concerns at the forefront. The Durst Kerridge team was professional, caring, creative, and demonstrated clear expertise in negotiation and risk management. Durst Kerridge guided me through the entire process efficiently, explaining each stage in a clear and understandable way, which made a potentially stressful experience far easier. Informed, responsive, strategic -- they anticipated challenges before they arose and delivered practical, effective solutions. I felt supported and confident every step of the way.
It is generally agreed upon that lawsuits are nightmares. Our situation was no different. Yet going through this journey with Alex and Paul actually made me grateful for the opportunity to have worked alongside them. These two gentlemen are among the most intelligent, honest, and genuinely good human beings I have ever encountered. If you need a lawyer to go to bat for you, these are your guys. And if you need a lawyer to win for you, let’s just say the odds may seem like one out of a million, but the Durst Kerridge team will find a way to make it happen!
Contractual disputes are a normal part of doing business, and over the years I’ve worked with many attorneys at different levels. Alex stands out as one of the best. He helped me deal with a highly aggressive company known for using predatory tactics that, while technically legal, can still trap people in unfair situations. One of Alex’s smartest moves was advising to transfer the case from state to federal court, which completely changed the dynamic and gave us leverage and fairness we wouldn’t have had otherwise. His legal knowledge, strategic thinking, and ability to see several steps ahead make him exceptional. Highly recommend.
