Katz Look & Onorato, P.C.

What would you, or others, like to see changed at employer?
Having a high turn around of Administrative assistants is not a good look, maybe the firm needs to look at the bigger picture to determine who the problem really is. Being an attorney does not make you better than anyone, especially if the current staff are speaking poorly of you. The actions of 1 attorney will start affecting the firm, because it can take 1 person to finally speak up of how they were treated. Maybe she needs to be a little more humble, like the other attorneys. Be more polite, respectful and be their for the employees when in need of help.

What were the things that you liked most about this employer?
They are other amazing attorneys and staff to work for and with. The legal assistant in tue estate planning department is amazing. The Hr will work with you when time is needed to be off, and have other incentives they give, which is a bonus.

What did you not like about this institution?
Krista Look, is very unprofessional and has treated the assistants poorly. Other employees have said, Krista is not very nice. She has made an hostile working environment. I have heard many stories of assistants quiting because she is very difficult. She lacks communication and runs to her farther when there is an issue instead of trying to fix the problem or issue herself. The pay is very low for an entry position fine, but getting treated and looked at like you arw dumb is not worth 13.00 an hour.

People, departments, offices, products, services and whatever comes to mind that should be avoided at this institution
The partners to avoid if you want to work here are Harley Look, jr and especially Krista Look. They do act like you are suppose to know everything when it's an entry level position but they are not willing to help.

How could this employer run its business to employees or the public better?
Amazing staff in other departments and the young girl who trained me and is now a legal assistant is easy to work with. She has a great attitude. Mr. Katz, Mrs. Kats and their son Seth are also great people but they have an attorney who is not so great.

What were the things that you liked most about this employer?
I don't know what the prior reviewer is talking about, but all of the attorneys and staff members are very helpful, including Harley Look, Jr. and Krista Look. If you ask anyone at the firm a question, everyone is always so happy to help. Even if they don't know the answer, they will point you in the right direction and give helpful advice on where to go and how to find the answer. The attorneys and staff are professional towards each other as well as the clients; they are patient, kind, and always willing to go above and beyond for not only those who work at the firm, but their clients as well.

How could this employer run its business to employees or the public better?
One of my favorite things about Katz, Look & Onorato is that there is always room for growth. Many of the current employees started in entry-level positions, but have been taught and trained by the attorneys and more senior staff, and they have worked their way up to more senior positions. They not only encourage you to learn and grow, but they are also excited to teach you.

What were the things that you liked most about this employer?
I was hired at Katz, Look, & Onorato, P.C. a year ago to work in the estate planning division as an administrative assistant. I had previously worked as a teacher for 15 years and had no experience working in a law firm. I’m so grateful to Krista Look for giving me a chance. Make no mistake, this is a fast-paced working environment and it will keep you on your toes. They are very busy and they expect a lot from themselves and, in turn, the administrative staff. However, I always felt like they were willing to help me out either by answering my questions or walking me through a task I hadn’t done before. One of the best parts about working here is that there is the opportunity to move up if you choose to do so. I was drafting documents after only a couple of months. One of the frustrating things about most paralegal jobs is they won’t hire you without 3-5 years of experience, but where are you supposed to get the experience if you can’t get hired anywhere? Krista, Harley Look, Jr., and the rest of the estate planning department are good teachers and will show you the right way to do things but also let you learn at your own pace. I also worked for Brian Onorato for a short time and he’s also a great attorney and a stand-up guy. Overall, a quality place to work where you know you’re helping people and where they attorneys do the right thing by their clients.
