Ms. Deri was awesome. She handled 2 closings for me at the same time (closing for a sale of a co-op and thereafter a closing for a purchase of a co-op). I also referred her to my bro-in-law whose original lawyer messed up and she took over her transactions.
I highly recommend her. Very fair, very attentive.

We would like to thank Lynn Deri for helping us buy and sell our Apartment in New York City in 2003 and 2020, respectively.
Lynn was very patient with us when we called her and asked her questions that we didn’t understand, and was always prompt to answer our questions by phone, email or by mail.
Lynn did a great job negotiating the contract terms and conditions with the buyer’s attorney and always carefully reviewed the documents. She is highly professional and experienced and very meticulous. She is also extremely organized, including in handling the paperwork. Lynn took her time at the both closings explaining without any rush to us every paragraph in the contract in simple and easy to understand terms. Lynn did a lot of research for us other attorneys may not always bother to do at no extra cost. Her fees were very reasonable for the amount of work she did for us. We even asked her if she was getting paid enough. Lynn is not only a highly qualified lawyer but also has a wonderful personality. We highly recommend Lynn Deri.

Ms. Deri is the best lawyer I have ever met. I had many problems at closing and post closing with the attorney I hired but Ms. Deri, who I didn't know before I buy the house, was able to review all documents and answer all my questions as if that was her own case. I truly recommend her to everyone who wants to have peace of mind and relax after purchasing a house.

I have heard most of the stereotypes referring to lawyers, but Mr. Napolitano does not fit any of them. Professional, courteous and informative, this lawyer kept my interest in the forefront at all times. With his finger on the pulse of the community, Mr. Napolitano navigated my wife and I through some tough issues, resolving each situation with his guidance and compassion. Every referral he made was excellent and resolved in a timely fashion. My wife and I thank God for his services and highly recommend him for whatever service you may need, because he is truly a servant of the people.

My Mom, who has Alzheimer’s disease was being denied adequate care by the insurance company after having asked for it several times. I retained Nancy Brady, hoping that she could help me get the care she needs. Nancy Brady gathered all the proof needed to show how my mom needed the care and went up against the insurance company and WON first time! Thanks to Nancy, my mom will now have the care she deserves for the duration of her life with this devastating disease! I highly recommend Nancy, who as a nurse and attorney knows what needs to be done to achieve results. She kept me informed every step of the way and taught me many things I was not aware of with regard to elder law! Would never use anyone else!

In 2017 thanks to a recommendation from friends, we began the process of setting up a trust and beginning to plan for my parents’ later years. Near the end of 2021 as I was well into the planning stages for my father to be around longer than my mother the script was suddenly changed. I again reached out to Brady and Bader for advice and soon after I finished gathering up the needed paperwork to begin planning my mother's long-term care, my mother passed as well. Brady and Bader have supported my family every step of the way. I finally turned to Brady and Bader to serve as my real estate attorney on my parents’ house which was in the trust and everything went smoothly. I definitely recommend their services.

TERRIBLE!!!! AWFUL!!! This law firm has caused so much anxiety for me! Josephine is RUDE as hell! This staff is weird! Never spoken to Scott before only to his assistants. They kept prolonging to give me my money they gave me only 10,000 of it in OCTOBER of last year and they told me I was going to get the rest of my money in February of THIS year and I never did! Josephine called me today to tell me I won’t be getting the rest of my money smh!!! This place is sooooo unprofessional and I literally recommend you to go anywhere else but here! All the pain and suffering I’ve been dealing with because of these people ! How are you going to lie to your client about getting money and then tell me I’m not going to get the money! What was the whole point of doing a lawsuit then?!? This place is unprofessional and disgusting!

I called the HB office and spoke to this attorney about a consult and had a very bad experience. She was rude and kept interrupting me, which I felt was very unprofessional. It seemed like she was in a rush and unwilling to listen to me.
