I moved to South Florida from out of state into a nightmare scenario at an apartment where my neighbors partied to all end of the early morning and after trying to work with management for over four months I turned to the pros for help. I am grateful for the help I received from the team at Flaxman Law Group. Throughout our email correspondence, they were incredibly responsive and always made sure to get back to me in a timely manner. They truly took the time to listen to my concerns and clearly understood the complexities of my situation. I appreciated how they provided thoughtful recommendations and guided me toward the best possible solutions for my case. I highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a professional, attentive, and supportive legal team. Although I hope to never need them again, they would definitely be my first choice if I did.
I reached out to Steven Flaxman regarding some issues with our landlord. He always responded to emails urgently. We needed an urgent advisory appt, but he was booked, so he moved things around with other clients. He did not pressure litigation, but helped us understand our different options for settling the dispute. When discussing a civil suit he informed us what that process would look like.
Steven Flaxman is truly excellent. I came in activated and overwhelmed, and he met that with calm, steadiness, and clarity. He listened carefully and did not minimize what I was experiencing. I felt protected. His decisions were thoughtful and clearly centered on my well-being, and that mattered.
The women in the office are just as impressive. They are warm, efficient, and professional, and they run a tight ship. The entire experience feels competent and human at the same time.
I am very grateful for the care I received and would recommend Steven Flaxman and his team without hesitation.
Hands down the very best. Above and beyond doesn't even begin to describe the level of professionalism and quality of their work.

Thank you, Sam, for your kind words! We truly appreciate your recognition of our team's professionalism and quality. Your support means a lot to us!
I originally hired Flaxman Law Group for a car accident case and they helped me every step of the way. I appreciated how responsive and available they always were. Then I had an issue with a landlord and Steven Flaxman was able to assist with that as well! Once again, I received great customer service and my issue was resolved. It is clear FLG cares about their clients.
Steven Flaxman was extremely helpful and a man of his word! Also gets the job done in a professional manner! Would highly recommend him.

Thank you, Joanne! We appreciate your kind words about Steven and are glad to hear he provided you with such excellent service. Your recommendation means a lot to us!
Excellent communication. Clear boundaries. Very easy to work with. Hired Steven for document review so that I could be 100% sure I understood what I was signing. His expert advice gave me peace of mind that the document I was signing was a good deal and I could trust that the legal language in the document was standard.
He complimented me for standing my ground and encouraged me to see the offer I signed as a win I can be proud of. That meant a lot to me and helped me to feel at ease with my decision.
Flexible and understanding, works with you. Price point is very reasonable. Highly recommend working with him. You will Be glad you did! 💖🙏🏽🫶🏽
We hired Attorney Steven Flaxman for a 30-minute advisory session costing $450, expecting meaningful guidance on a termination agreement related to serious habitability issues with our landlord. Given the urgency and complexity of our situation, we expected a careful and thorough review.
During the consultation, Mr. Flaxman stated that the landlord’s offer was “significant” and suggested that proceeding with the agreement could be a reasonable option. He emphasized that the decision was ultimately ours and said he would review the termination agreement once we received it. We made clear that the landlord was withholding funds until the agreement was signed and that we were displaced due to unresolved habitability violations.
When the agreement arrived, we sent it to him expecting a careful review. Instead, we received a very brief overview and were told the agreement was “standard.” Only later did we discover that a portion of the agreement referenced California law rather than Colorado (even though erroneous) an issue that could have been identified and explained during review. At the time the agreement was sent, Mr. Flaxman indicated he was in court, and we were asked to identify which provision we needed help understanding.
Had more time been taken, even briefly, the experience would have felt more thorough and individualized rather than rushed and transactional. Based on our later understanding of the agreement, signing it could have resulted in waiving important rights, particularly given the breadth of the release language.
What made this especially concerning is that Mr. Flaxman acknowledged during our consultation that, based on the evidence we provided, the landlord appeared to have breached the lease. Despite this, the guidance we received did not reflect the seriousness of that breach or fully address the risks embedded in the agreement.
Ultimately, we chose not to sign, which turned out to be the right decision for us. However, because we refused to sign an agreement that would have required releasing broad claims our landlord retaliated against us, we were left without housing or alternative assistance. Shortly afterward, we were locked out and charged additional fees, despite the fact that the underlying habitability issues caused our displacement.
For the cost and the stakes involved, we expected a far more careful, and protective review. Based on our experience, we cannot recommend this service.
Update:
After leaving an honest review of our experience, Mr. Flaxman contacted us and requested that we take the review down, stating that he would provide a full refund if we did so. We declined to remove the review.
Following our refusal, Mr. Flaxman stated that if we had settled, we would not have been evicted. That statement does not align with the facts of what occurred. The lockout happened two days after the agreement was presented, and there was no court order or writ of possession.
Our concern is not about hindsight outcomes, but about the quality of the legal guidance we received and how our concerns were addressed afterward.

Hi LaKrisha,
I’m sorry that you were ultimately dissatisfied with the outcome of your situation. However, your review mischaracterizes both the scope of the consultation and the events that followed.
During our advisory session, we discussed that management had breached the lease and that a settlement offer had been made as a result of that breach. Based on the information you provided, the timeline, and the damages discussed, we mutually agreed that the offer was significant and could represent a reasonable resolution. As emphasized during the call, the decision whether to settle was entirely yours.
A week after the advisory session had concluded, you forwarded a proposed written agreement. I reviewed it as a courtesy, confirmed that it reflected the same settlement framework previously discussed, and noted no material deviation from the offer that had already been evaluated. I then followed up to ask whether you had any specific questions or concerns, but received no response.
Your decision not to proceed with the settlement, and the housing issues that arose months later, were outside the scope of our consultation and beyond our control. We did not advise you to sign any agreement, nor did we direct or encourage any course of action that resulted in eviction or lockout.
While I regret that your dispute with the landlord escalated after our involvement ended, it is not accurate to attribute later events and the landlord’s subsequent conduct, to the limited advisory services provided. I wish you the best moving forward.

The pricing was above fair.Steve is very personable and I am a satisfied customer. When the rubber met the road Steve was there and we were able to get the result we were hoping for.
