"Mike Ehrlich is one of the most knowledgeable people concerning the rules and procedures of the Appellate Division, Second Department that I dealt with in my 37 years with the Court. His clients are in very good hands."
Arnold Edman
Deputy Chief Clerk (Retired Mar 2002)
Appellate Division, Second Department
Fort Collins, CO

"In the 10+ years I have been working with him, I have consistently found Mike Ehrlich to be highly knowledgeable about all aspects of appellate procedure. His skilled assistance is invaluable."
Nancy Breslow, Partner

"As the appellate partner at my firm, I've worked with Michael Ehrlich for many years, and have always found him to be an invaluable guide to what current practice requires."
Peter Riggs, Partner,
Cerussi & Spring
White Plains, NY

"I have worked with Counsel Press for over a decade and the service provided by the company is exemplary. In particular, Mike Ehrlich has provided assistance far beyond what one would expect from a similar company. We have had occasion to use other companies and have found that they lack the personal attention and procedural knowledge that Counsel Press provides."
Anne Patrice Richter, Partner,

"There is no one better in this business than Mike Ehrlich. I rely on him exclusively for all my appellate needs. I would never consider switching away from Counsel Press."
Marcy Sonneborn, Partner,
Molod Spitz DeSantis & Stark, P.C.
New York, NY

"Over the past dozen years, I have worked with Mike Ehrlich on over 100 appeals.  He has provided a level of service unsurpassed by any other printer with whom I have worked.  He has also been a font of knowledge about not only the published rules of New York's appellate courts, but perhaps more importantly, their de facto practices, gleaned from years of experience.  In such matters, his timely advice has proven accurate year after year."
Jonathan T. Uejio, Partner,
Conway, Farrell, Curtin & Kelly, P.C.
New York, NY

"Working with Mike Ehrlich and his colleagues at Counsel Press makes navigating the shoals  of the appellate process in state and federal courts seem effortless. His encyclopedic knowledge of the appellate rules and what would be appropriate in the interstices between them plus his calm, confident, sagacious manner  free  the attorney to concentrate on the substantive legal issues. A long list of successful appeals is the result."
