I am writing to express my sincere gratitude for the outstanding assistance provided by Peter, our real estate attorney. His unwavering commitment and expertise have left an indelible mark, and I feel compelled to share my experience.
Peter recommended a banker who secured a good interest rate for our mortgage. This financial advantage will significantly impact our monthly payments, and we are genuinely thankful.
His negotiation skills and dedication to finding the best terms were evident throughout the process.
Peter’s guidance extended beyond legal matters. He recommended a homeowner insurance company that streamlined the process.
We felt confident knowing that Peter was handling every aspect with care, ensuring a smooth and timely closing.
Peter’s deep understanding of real estate transactions and unwavering professionalism set him apart. We never doubted that we were in capable hands.
His attention to detail and responsiveness made the entire experience stress-free.
We wholeheartedly recommend Peter to anyone seeking a real estate attorney. His commitment to excellence and client satisfaction is commendable.
We will gladly share our positive experience with friends, family, and colleagues. Peter is a true asset in his field.
Thank you, Peter, for going above and beyond. Your dedication has made this milestone in our lives memorable and worry-free. We look forward to any future opportunities to work with you.

My partner and I hired Peter to represent us in buying a home in NYC from out-of-state in advance of a move for my partner's job. It was stressful learning about the NYC real estate process until we started working with Peter. He really helpful in explaining the process and orienting us to the idiosyncrasies of NYC real estate law. As an attorney myself, but with no knowledge of real estate law, I really appreciated Peter's commitment to advising and counseling us! He is also responsive, knowledgable, and very on top of it. Highly recommend working with him! (This was my first time buying a home and I found him especially helpful and calming to work with).

I recently worked with Peter to close on a new development condo in Long Island City.
Peter was extremely responsive, friendly, and most importantly, knowledgeable. He walked me through every aspect of the process and was always happy to answer any questions I had (and trust me, I had a lot). He was great at explaining complicated topics in a simple and easy-to-understand manner.
I think I would have pulled my hair out without Peter, will definitely be looking to work with him again on any future deals and will not hesitate to recommend him to friends/family

Inara was highly recommended to me by a friend to use for the green card application, and she lived up to all expectations. Thorough with her approach, no stone was left unturned. All communication was answered swiftly. I would highly recommend her if you’re seeking an immigration attorney and don’t know where to begin. Fantastic service.

Inara Khashmati and her team were with me every step of the way. Inara came highly recommended by a friend of mine who hired her for immigration purposes which was a rather complex case! She helped me obtain my greencard a few years back and I hired her again for my naturalization process. I am officially an American citizen as of two weeks ago! Inara is highly professional, detail oriented, very thorough and informative and stays on top of your case! My application process was a breeze even though both my green card and citizenship applications were submitted outside of New York State where Inara practices. I couldn't have asked for anyone better and I'd recommend Inara and her team without any reservations. Thanks Khashmati Law!

I visited J.Arditi about a year ago. It became clear very quickly, that I would not want this person anywhere near me. During the conversation, interrupted me numperous times, and basically put words 'into my mouth' , insisting that I stated things I did not in fact state. After I pronounced 'I did not say that' obnoxiously coutered 'yes you did'. Could have simply not said that for the sake of politeness, if she was so assured that I said something, instead of continuously insisting, wasting time. No manners, very argumentative. Very rude: out of the blue asked me if I had mental problems. Basically, I was able to conclude to myself that she is obnoxiously self assured, undully argumentative, very small minded person. I found another attourney, who was an exact opposite in behaviour, and we actually won the case. Would I win with Jennifer? I would not have her anywahere near me, with her trash attitude.
