I want to share my personal experience working with Mr. Rosenfeld so that others can make informed decisions before hiring him. Based on what I went through, I strongly advise being cautious before conducting any business with him or his office.
I hired Mr. Rosenfeld about a year ago, believing he would handle my case with the professionalism and responsibility expected from an attorney. Unfortunately, my experience was the complete opposite. From the beginning, he presented himself as polite and professional, but as time went on -- especially during court appearances -- he repeatedly failed to resolve my case. He originally told me the matter would be easy to settle because the landlord's lawsuit was not based on nonpayment and lacked a valid reason. That turned out not to be the case.
About two months ago, Mr. Rosenfeld informed me that the landlord was willing to negotiate. At that point, I agreed to move out because I no longer wanted to stay there. During our discussions, we verbally agreed that once I vacated the unit, I would not be pursued for any additional charges. I trusted his explanation, and he assured me that this would be the outcome.
Shortly after, I received a notice from the landlord stating that I was being sent to collections for a balance I had already paid and that had previously been refunded to me. This was shocking, especially because it directly contradicted what Mr. Rosenfeld and I had agreed upon.
For the past two months, I have repeatedly attempted to contact Mr. Rosenfeld for answers, but he has not responded. His staff has also expressed frustration and seems aware of the situation, but I still have not received any clarification or help from him directly. Yes, I signed the agreement -- but only after he explained it to me and assured me that no additional charges would be pursued. I am not a legal expert and relied on his guidance in good faith.
My experience has left me feeling misled, unprotected, and taken advantage of. I'm sharing this so others are aware and can protect themselves from going through the same situation.

Seth Rosenfeld and his terrific assistant Teresa who was very caring, attentive, personable and knowledgeable helped my elderly mom evict my brother who is a middle aged man sponging off of my mom his entire life who was so bad that she had to leave the state of NY. We hired Seth Rosenfeld from Florida to deal with this and I definitely recommend him to all who are needing to evict a person who feels entitled to live in your property without paying. Family members are the worst, taking advantage of your kindness and can make you sick, so do not hesitate to call Seth Rosenfeld to get your life back. We are so happy and mom is enjoying her peace of mind. Thank you to Seth Rosenfeld and Teresa!!!

Seth saved the day for me! I was being sued by landlord and had been to court many times on my own. I was at the end of my rope and didn't know where to turn or what to do. Seth was able to swoop in, make a last minute appearance before the Judge on my behalf and negotiate an amazing settlement! HE SAVED ME MORE THAN $10,000!!! After months of trying to work this out on my own, having other attorneys tell me to just pay 100% of what the Landlord was (unfairly and wrongly) claiming from me, Seth was the ONLY attorney who knew what he was doing. If you need help, pick up the phone and call Seth now!!

I cannot thank Seth Rosenfeld enough for the outstanding job he did in helping me fight my eviction case. From the very beginning, he was professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely cared about my situation. He took the time to explain every step of the process, answered all of my questions, and made sure I felt supported through what was one of the most stressful times of my life.
Because of his hard work, expertise, and dedication, I was able to keep my home. He fought on my behalf and achieved a result that I honestly wasn't sure would be possible. Beyond just being an excellent attorney, he showed compassion and treated me with respect when I needed it most.
If you are ever in need of a lawyer who will truly fight for you and go above and beyond, I highly recommend Seth Rosenfeld . He is not only an incredible advocate but also a person who truly cares about their clients.

I cannot recommend attorney Seth Rosenfeld highly enough. From the very first consultation through the conclusion of my case, Mr. Rosenfeld demonstrated a level of professionalism, diligence, and compassion that far exceeded my expectations. If you're dealing with a landlord-tenant issue and feeling overwhelmed by the legal system, Seth is exactly the kind of lawyer you want by your side.
What stood out most to me was how thorough and patient he was throughout the entire process. Housing court can be incredibly stressful, especially when you're unsure of your rights or what to expect. Seth never once rushed through a phone call or a meeting. He took the time to explain every step of the process, answer all of my questions--no matter how small--and ensured that I fully understood the legal implications of each decision we made.
His attention to detail was unmatched. He combed through every document and piece of evidence with a fine-toothed comb, always thinking several steps ahead and anticipating any issues that might arise. It was clear he had extensive experience in landlord-tenant disputes and understood both the letter of the law and how housing court functions in practice. I felt protected and prepared at every court appearance because I knew I had someone on my side who was not just competent, but exceptionally well-versed in this area of law.
What really set Seth apart, though, was his genuine courtesy and respect. He treated me not just as a client, but as a person. I never felt like just another case file. He was always responsive, returning emails and phone calls promptly, and he made me feel heard. His calm, measured demeanor helped keep me grounded during some very stressful moments.
Seth also went above and beyond in ways that I didn't expect but deeply appreciated. Whether it was following up after court appearances, proactively reaching out to opposing counsel, or even checking in just to see how I was holding up, he consistently went the extra mile. That kind of dedication is rare and speaks volumes about his commitment to his clients.
In the end, thanks to Seth's advocacy, we achieved a highly favorable outcome. But even beyond the result, what I valued most was knowing I had someone trustworthy, respectful, and skilled guiding me through a difficult time.
If you're looking for a lawyer who is diligent, patient, thorough, and truly committed to your case, look no further than Seth Rosenfeld. He is an outstanding attorney and a remarkable human being.
