Zarco Einhorn Salkowski & Brito, P.A. Review

I do not make it a habit to complain online against anyone, but my conscience will not let me move on from my recent experience with this firm. Unsuspecting clients need to know what transpired in my case and the firm needs to review as well to prevent from happening again in the future - if they even care one bit. This is an extremely unprofessional set of lawyers (the two I worked with, Bob Einhorn and Jacky Beda) that are only interested in their own advancement/profit. They have committed horrible novice mistakes in handling my case, which was a simple negotiation. Fortunately the case had a positive outcome only because I insisted several times to proceed against their irrational and misplaced advice. Without a hint of exaggeration, I literally had to insist on acting against the lawyers' advice EVERY SINGLE TIME, in order to reach a positive outcome in my case.

Just listing a few of their most egregious mistakes:

1. Bad communication. Partner Bob Einhorn was always available for initial calls, but as soon as I signed up he passed my case over to associate Jacky Beda who was clearly out of his element. Never did he disclose that in the signing papers and the initial communication with him.
2 Associate Jacky Beda never wanted to engage with other party and their legal team (that were understandably playing dead) over the phone until I insisted I was going to call them myself. Turned out that was the best decision for moving the case forward.
3. Legal team did not understand basic elements of negotiation, alternatives to negotiated agreement, business sense of numbers presented, lowest acceptable negotiated amount. They even insisted on stopping negotiation and signing me up for arbitration right before opposite party was ready to engage, only because arbitration would have been way more lucrative for them.
4. Associate insisted he had a next day reply policy, even though he let emails and calls unanswered for several weeks at a time. Not once did he apologize, it was never his mistake.
5. Associate openly questioned my motives and undermined my credibility during the negotiation, not once but several times. If you are not going to trust your own client, you are not fit to be in the legal profession. Period.
6. I asked for a 20 min in person meeting with associate Jacky Beda only once in our 18 month-long interaction. He told me exactly what time to show up, only to not be available on a ridiculous excuse and have me wait 3 hours until he could finally meet me. Mind you that was the day before Christmas, I had to fly in from out of state, and had to reschedule my return arrangements because of that delay. Absolutely insane.

I don't even know how I managed to have an ongoing relationship for a year and a half with this team of clowns, and managed to successfully steer them to a desirable outcome despite their best efforts to derail my case. Nobody in their right mind should have to go through that. They get zero stars from me and a huge complaint for lack of professionalism, lack of experience and knowledge in legal and professional matters, and bad communication practices. Gentlemen you have not even reached out to discuss my feedback, even though I have continually voiced my disagreements throughout our engagement. And you have not reached out to discuss these complaints even after I made them public. Shows how unprofessional you are and how much you (don't) care for your clients

My wife and I run a franchising company that franchises Fred Astaire Dance Studios in New York and South Florida, a few years ago we needed Franchise legal advice and FTC work to be done and some one recommended Robert Einhorn to us, after a brief meeting we retained them as our legal firm.
We have used their services for FTC compliance and franchising, dealing mostly with Kaari Gagnon who is prompt, smart and responsive at all times, we have also used their litigation department working with Michael Braunstein who also has been very helpful and professional, always keeping our best interest first and foremost.
On the few occasions that we have consulted with Robert Einhorn, he has always been available and given us great advise.
we highly recommend Zarco Einhorn Salkowski and Britto.

ALERT!!!!!! Attoney, Robert Salkowski is the attorney to call, not only is he down to earth, kind, friendly, honest and takes action right away, but saved me from loosing $27,500 on a Franchise scam from Craigslist. Once agreed to retain he services he didn t even ask if I had paid, he immediately got to work, he didn t send his paralegal to call me to give me the bad news, he texted me proof of the scam I was involved in.
He is not in for the money as most attorneys are, he truly cared, rest asure all my business ventures will be handled by him.

If you're looking for a prompt, efficient, and professional lawyer, look no further---Himanshu is your man! This firm gets the job DONE and DONE RIGHT! Needing a lawyer is a stressful time in anyone's life, but having Robert Zarco and Himanshu Patel on my side alleviated the stress greatly. They take pride in their work and it shows in their results. I would highly recommend this firm!

My experience with the law firm of Zarco, Einhorn, Salkowski & Brito, P.A. was extremely positive. I worked primarily with attorneys Robert Einhorn and Michael Braunstein, but I also had interaction with other members of their staff as well. Robert Zarco even reached-out to us to make sure all was going well, and to let us know that we should feel comfortable that all of the resources of the entire firm were at our disposal. They truly cared! The level of professionalism & follow-through from everyone in the firm contributes heavily to their terrific reputation in the legal world. Attorneys Robert Einhorn and Michael Braunstein are outstanding attorneys and are extremely knowledgeable. They helped me to understand all elements of my legal matter, provided guidance from multiple different angles and were able to articulate my critical decision points. Not only did I respect and trust their judgement, but I also felt comfortable during all of my communications with them. They truly dedicated themselves and their resources to my needs, and made sure I was fully informed along the way. In my opinion, they are no doubt, one of the top firms in their field nationally. I would definitely refer others to this firm.

Michael, Robert & Himanshu are not just thorough, creative and brilliant lawyers, at this point they are family who always make themselves available when I call and quick to respond to my emails.
Thank you for all that you do!!

This is the most beautiful office that you will find in downtown Miami, it's like the Taj Mahal of downtown Miami. Also, it has a team of attorneys that can handle any legal situation you may have. I highly recommend them.

We have been represented by Robert Zarco and Rob Salkowski for the past 4 years in litigation with a franchisor. Their passion and caring attitudes have been absolutely AMAZING. We have felt totally comfortable and protected throughout the entire process. We cannot imagine that any other firm would be as competent, caring or as skilled as Zarco Einhorn Salkowski and Brito. Even the presiding judge commented that the positive outcome of the jury trial may have been different with any other law firm.

This is an amazing law firm! Hands down Best Litigation Team! When nothing but the best will do, this boutique firm will hand you the keys to the court and make you feel like family the moment you step in the door.
I was very privileged to have Robert Zarco, Robert Einhorn, & the very special Colby Conforti on my difficult & complex business dispute case. They worked tirelessly and passionately through many challenges. Masters at their profession, they are a powerhouse that steam rolls the opposing counsel with their knowledge and strategy or speaks to the heart of the judge. Not only excellent lawyers but exceptional people, my opinions were valued and my doubts were always reassured. Hopefully, to a life long relationship-friendship, whether inside or out of court. Thank you Robert, Bob, & Colby, love you all, you got it done even through the pandemic! I recommend Zarco Law 150%!!

My husband and I and our business partners are so thankful for this firm. It is no exaggeration to say that Zarco Law inhabits the pinnacle of professionalism and skill. The combined legal acumen of Alejandro Brito and Michael Braunstein has consistently gained results and given us hope in what initially seemed an impossible situation.
Mr. Brito's wealth of experience is not something we needed to read about in order to grasp; it exudes from him in private conversation as well as in the courtroom. He is a masterful attorney in every sense of the word.We must also commend Mr. Braunstein for his exemplary diligence in dissecting every aspect of our case. Since the beginning, he has maintained a confidence which only a profound knowledge of the law can confer. He is excellence personified in an attorney, and will approach your case with clinical precision. Together, Mr. Brito and Mr. Braunstein exhibit a consummate command of the entire process, and we are grateful beyond words for their efforts. These are the people you need in your corner when your livelihood is at stake; any other option pales in comparison to Zarco Law!

The quality of legal support and litigation from the attorneys at Zarco Einhorn Salkowski & Brito is exceptional. As a General Counsel, I rely on their collective support for general drafting support (Kaari Gagnon), risk management (Bob Einhorn) , litigation support (Michael Braunstein, Beshoy Rizk). The professionalism, responsiveness and depth of legal support is unmatched.

We have worked with this firm for several years and they have always been highly professional, extremely attentive and prepared to give good guidance. Kaari Gagnon provides excellent legal advice and service, their ethics are of the highest standards. We are very pleased with their services.

We were very fortunate to have had Zarco Law to turn to when we needed legal expertise. Having worked with Michael Braunstein and Robert Einhorn was the best possible legal duo we could have asked for! Each of them brought special skills to the table and we couldn't be happier with our outcome......

Michael Braunstein and Alex Brito have been very helpful representing my husband and I s multiple franchise businesses, always keeping our best interest in mind and have very fair and competitive pricing! Michael Braunstein is prompt and easy to reach, extremely knowledgeable profesional, and creative in ways of find resolutions keeping our best interest in mind. We completely trust his opinion backed by the experiance and resources of Zarco law and will continue to recommend him to our colleges and friends in the franchise industry.

We have worked with many attorneys at this firm and have always had a positive experience and more importantly positive results. Whether its a franchise issue or a corporate law issue, we plan on always sticking with our friends and partners at Zarco Einhorn Salkowski & Brito!!!

I had the pleasure of meeting Robert Zarco in a boating event in Italy. He is an outstanding person. He has been a very hospitable friend to my girlfriend and I as well as her family. I Would definitely recomend trusting Robert with any legal issues.

Zarco Law are the best partners you can have on your team in a complex commercial litigation dispute, and anything dealing with Franchise ! They are confident, creative, out-of-the-box thinkers, and willing to take qualifying cases on contingency ! Zarco Law is the powerhouse team who has won for their clients for decades for over 550 franchise brands nationally and internationally. You'd be insane not to reach out and see if it's a good fit !

We have worked together with both Robert Zarco and Kaari Gagnon over the past 5 years. Their firm has been a pleasure to deal with, they have addressed each and every one of our needs and are ALWAYS available when we need services, especially those that are time sensitive. Both Robert and Kaari make themselves available at any time whether it be by phone or email, and they have never missed any deadlines. The advice and guidance they have given us has been invaluable. Kaari has done excellent work in her specialty as a franchise attorney and representing our company. Their firm has made us feel more like family than just clients.

As a minority shareholder of a small Franchise Start-up, I found myself in a David vs Goliath legal battle. The first law firm that I went with ran up fees and charged me nearly $75K before any real court battle commenced. So I fired them and hired ZESB, specifically Robert Einhorn & Colby Conforti. From day 1 they went to bat for me. They went over and above the call of duty, winning every court battle and turning the tide of the case in my favor forcing the other side to wave the white flag of surrender. In the end, I got what I believe is the best settlement possible and best of all they help me, the little guy, beat the giant. If you are considering a firm to represent you in the Franchising arena, look no further.

The law firm of Zarco Einhorn Salkowski & Brito has represented my weight loss franchise company, Dr.G's Weight Loss and Wellness, since its inception 10 years ago. They have been amazing throughout all of these years. The attorneys with whom we have worked most closely, Kaari Gagnon and Robert Einhorn have both been excellent, professional, and always there to help us in every way. I highly recommend this firm for all of your franchising needs, as well as any corporate legal advice a client may require. Great firm. Great people. Great lawyers.
