Rothkoff Jerold E Attorney

I had the worst experience when I used Mr. Rothkoff to assist with long term care planning for my grandfather. Mr. Rothkoff was abrupt, condescending, and abrasive. While his office staff were nothing but pleasant, his off-​putting manners counteracted any rapport my family felt with that office. Here are specific examples of his behavior: 1.) When I asked questions, he would often tell me that either he was not going to answer that yet or ask me what I thought, then say, «Well there’s your answer». 2.) Our two hour meeting ended after only an hour and a half, mostly due to his lack of interest in our situation. This was clear by the tone in his voice and the lack of information he supplied. 3.) Rather than staying focused on the task at hand, he spent several minutes in off-​topic conversation that did interest him, such as fishing, the restaurants in my neighborhood, etc. Considering the amount of money he was provided for his time, I expected him to not only treat us with respect but also to have substantial information to take away. All in all, I believe the visit was a waste of time. I would not recommend him to anyone seeking support for elder care planning. Someone with better manners and true empathy for the concerns of the family would be a better candidate.
