I hired Attorney Soklnick to help rectify several issues vis a vis my gut renovation of a condo I purchased on the UES (10028) of Manhattan. He was very helpful, smart, attentive to detail, and thorough. He has integrity and wit. For me, character is essential in a person who works for, and with, me. Martin Skolnick, Esq., has abundant character. I recommend and endorse him totally. We were successful in our mission!

Another lawyer told me that it was doubtful that I would prevail in keeping a property that a large wealthy bank had initiated a lawsuit to take from me. Mr. Skolnick was successful and the bank was not able to take the property from me. I had foreclosed on the property, and the bank was trying to get it back. Because of Mr. Skolnick's capable representation, I still am the proud owner of that property. .

I hired Mr. Joseph Nitti for a worker’s compensation case. Mr. Nitti professionalism is top notch, and an expert in his field. He is very knowledgeable and resourceful and overall, a kind person who cares about his clients. During our consultation in person and over the phone, Joseph was very attentive to the details of my case and the process was stress free. What I love the most about Mr. Nitti is that no matter what, he will indeed find the best resolution for your case or any case. I was pleased with the resolution of my case, Mr. Nitti fought for a better offer, and we won. I recommended hiring Nitti & Nitti and especially Joseph as your lawyer. They prices are reasonable, the outcome is outstanding, you yourself will learn more about the laws of your cases. He always responds to a timely matter via phone or emails. I’m impressed with Mr. Nitti and his firm and will recommend Nitti & Nitti to everyone.

David Mazie, in my opinion, is the best Attorney in the Country. Although he is well versed in legal knowledge, he dealt with our family with the utmost compassion and respect. Without being too specific, our case was nine years old when presented to him. He tirelessly worked around the clock with his firm, sometimes meeting or calling us after hours or on weekends. He takes his cases personally, so, he is very selective with his law partners and other professionals he brings into every case. You would really think that a lawyer of his stature wouldn't be pleasant to work with, but our family found him very personable and he can relate to people from all walks of life. We prayed for a top notch Attorney like Atty. Mazie and our prayers were answered. We had spoken with other lawyers but none were as professional and dedicated to our case than David Mazie. Our long and drawn out law suit was wrapped up by Mr. Mazie with amazing speed It only took him two years to research and finally try our case, which we won !! To get the best results for his clients, he only works with the best - that's it! That's his secret, if any at all. He brought in professionals from different states who are all at the top of their field. We know that this is more expensive to do but Atty Mazie is so confident in winning that he stops at nothing to give his clients more than a fair chance should there be a trial. He uses the latest technology in and out of the courtroom. An example of this is that he brought in computer graphics specialists to reenact the specifics of the case so that the jury could fully understand the details of the case. Please look no further for an Attorney. DAVID MAZIE IS THE BEST LAWYER!. What more do you need to contact him? Be fortunate if he takes your case, because you know you are in good hands with a top notch and well respected lawyer. Good Luck !!

Mike and his team were wonderful to work with. Mike was recommended to us by our realtor and we were extremely pleased with the outcome. He made our home purchase a smooth and enjoyable process. He guided us with our purchase, giving us options that we didn't even realize were possible. Without Mike's help, we wouldn't be enjoying our new home. Mike went above and beyond, even coming to us for our first meeting, which was both informative and friendly. Mike's team was easy to work with and kept constant communication throughout the process. We would absolutely use Mike and his team in the future and have already recommended him to family. Thanks, Mike.

He is extremely knowledgeable when it comes to all aspects of home buying. Additionally, he went the extra mile to accommodate our needs whether is was finance concerns or after hour questions we needed answered. Michael and his team genuinely wanted to make sure we found the right home with the right financing for us. I cannot say enough how much his sincerity and knowledge meant to us as first time home buyers! I would recommend Michael and his team without hesitation and will be using him again for the foreseeable future should we buy another home down the road! Thanks, Mike!

I cannot say better things about Eric Melzer and the team at BLKGG. I was introduced to Eric when he called to renew a trademark for a nonprofit I became the new President for. I had no prior relationship or referral/connection with him so I was a little hesitant at first, and almost had another attorney that I have worked with handle the trademark renewal. I figured I would give Eric a shot since he was the original attorney to handle the trademark, and it was the best decision I ever made. Seven years later, Eric now handles all my legal matters for my businesses, and any other personal matters, and I have never been happier. He is sharp, concise, efficient, and tactfully aggressive when needed against an adversary. Eric has always done the right thing for me and when something falls out of his expertise, he introduces me to someone in his firm that specializes in exactly what I need.

Most people hesitate to call lawyers because they know they're going to spend a lot of money & are unsure of their outcome. I used this law firm for a problem I had with my credit card company. They were extremely sensitive to my problem & offered their services at the going rate for legal help. They accepted my case, which was a "David vs. Goliath" fight. A single consumer fighting the credit card/corporate banking system which is pretty much foolproof. With the help of this company (Mr. Robert Giasullo & Mr. Evan Silagi) they were able to win my case & save me 10's of thousands of dollars. If you want honest, knowledable & considerate lawyers fighting in your corner, this is the firm to use. I normally don't have high regard for lawyers in general but this company is a winner & I can't say how appreciative I am to this firm for helping me out of my situation.

Matt Iftode was my Mother's estate attorney and now has just completed our estate plan for my husband and I. We can't say enough good things about Matt. He is extremely knowledgeable and is very easy to work with both in the execution of my Mother's will and estate as well as the planning of ours. We highly recommend Matt Iftode and this law firm!

I cannot say better things about Eric Melzer and the team at BLKGG. I was introduced to Eric when he called to renew a trademark for a nonprofit I became the new President for. I had no prior relationship or referral/connection with him so I was a little hesitant at first, and almost had another attorney that I have worked with handle the trademark renewal. I figured I would give Eric a shot since he was the original attorney to handle the trademark, and it was the best decision I ever made. Seven years later, Eric now handles all my legal matters for my businesses, and any other personal matters, and I have never been happier. He is sharp, concise, efficient, and tactfully aggressive when needed against an adversary. Eric has always done the right thing for me and when something falls out of his expertise, he introduces me to someone in his firm that specializes in exactly what I need.

Most people hesitate to call lawyers because they know they're going to spend a lot of money & are unsure of their outcome. I used this law firm for a problem I had with my credit card company. They were extremely sensitive to my problem & offered their services at the going rate for legal help. They accepted my case, which was a "David vs. Goliath" fight. A single consumer fighting the credit card/corporate banking system which is pretty much foolproof. With the help of this company (Mr. Robert Giasullo & Mr. Evan Silagi) they were able to win my case & save me 10's of thousands of dollars. If you want honest, knowledable & considerate lawyers fighting in your corner, this is the firm to use. I normally don't have high regard for lawyers in general but this company is a winner & I can't say how appreciative I am to this firm for helping me out of my situation.

When we purchased and 12 years later sold our business, Phil served as our attorney and was extremely effective in protecting our interests. He's particularly good at driving specific language or negotiations tactics based on strategic questions and considerations. Phil was recommended to us by a friend who is frequently involved in business mergers/acquisitions, and the recommendation was a rock solid one.

He believes in dispute resolution through dialog vs. litigation. For nearly 20 years Phil has worked with our company and seen us through numerous difficult situations. Please consider this my very strong recommendation to any business leader seeking solid advice from a wise and experienced professional.

July 1, 2024 To Whom is May Concern, In February of 2023 I was hospitalized as a result of a serious accident that required months of rehabilitation as well as surgery. While hospitalized, I contacted the Starr, Gern, Davidson & Rubin law firm for legal representation. The firm had successfully represented my mother in a legal matter several years earlier. David Wendel was assigned as my personal injury attorney. David asked very pertinent questions involving the accident. He also made very helpful recommendations concerning medical treatment and rehabilitation specialists that would assist in my recovery. I followed his advice and the medical specialists that he recommended helped me make a complete recovery. David also intervened with medical insurance companies whenever coverage issues arose. He is very personable and easy to converse with. He also kept me informed of any important developments in the legal proceedings. I consider myself fortunate to have had David Wendel as my legal advocate. I highly recommend David to anyone in need of a personal injury attorney. In addition, the financial award that I received as a result of his efforts far exceeded my expectations. Sincerely M. Lemon Cedar Grove, New Jersey

What a Real Estate Lawyer Can Do for You

A real estate lawyer provides legal assistance in transactions and disputes involving property, including residential and commercial real estate. Whether you're buying, selling, leasing, or developing property, a real estate attorney can help ensure that your transactions are legally sound and your rights are protected. They review contracts, perform due diligence, resolve disputes, and provide legal representation in negotiations and litigation involving property matters.

Real estate lawyers are crucial in safeguarding your investment by ensuring compliance with local, state, and federal real estate laws, as well as protecting you from potential legal pitfalls related to property ownership and transactions.

When Should I Hire a Real Estate Lawyer?

Hiring a real estate lawyer is beneficial in various scenarios, including:

  • Buying or selling property: When navigating complex real estate contracts, it’s advisable to have a lawyer review and ensure that the terms are favorable and legal.
  • Commercial property transactions: For leasing, purchasing, or selling commercial properties, a lawyer can help manage the intricate legal aspects of such transactions.
  • Zoning or land use issues: If you're planning to develop property or change its use, a real estate lawyer can guide you through zoning laws and land use regulations.
  • Resolving property disputes: For boundary disputes, title issues, or disagreements over property rights, a lawyer can help mediate or litigate the matter.
  • Foreclosures or evictions: If you're dealing with foreclosure or managing a tenant eviction, legal representation ensures that the process adheres to local laws and protects your interests.
  • Title and deed issues: Lawyers can help clear title disputes, ensure the legitimacy of property deeds, and handle transfers of ownership.

What Does a Real Estate Lawyer Do?

A real estate lawyer provides a range of services to help with property transactions and disputes, including:

  • Contract drafting and review: Ensuring that purchase agreements, leases, and other contracts are legally binding, fair, and protect your interests.
  • Title search and clearance: Conducting a thorough title search to ensure that the property has no legal claims or liens that could affect ownership.
  • Facilitate closing: Managing the closing process in real estate transactions, including reviewing final documents and ensuring that everything is in order before the transfer of ownership.
  • Resolve disputes: Handling legal disputes related to property ownership, boundaries, zoning, or tenants.
  • Assist in financing: Reviewing loan agreements and mortgage documents to ensure the terms are fair and legally sound.
  • Zoning and land use advice: Guiding clients through the complexities of zoning laws and building regulations for property development or renovation projects.

How Are Real Estate Lawyers Paid?

Real estate lawyers typically charge for their services in the following ways:

  • Flat fee: Many real estate transactions, such as reviewing a sales contract or assisting with a closing, are charged on a flat-fee basis.
  • Hourly rates: If a lawyer is handling complex disputes or litigation, they may charge by the hour. Hourly rates can vary significantly based on the lawyer’s experience and location.
  • Contingency fees: In rare cases, such as property disputes or claims for damages, a lawyer may work on a contingency fee basis, meaning they only get paid if you win or settle the case.
  • Retainer: For ongoing legal support, some clients may pay a retainer, which is an upfront fee used as a deposit for future legal services.

It's important to clarify the fee structure with your attorney before hiring them to avoid any surprises.

How Much Does a Real Estate Lawyer Cost?

The cost of a real estate lawyer varies based on the complexity of the matter, the location of the property, and the lawyer’s experience. Key factors that affect pricing include:

  • Type of transaction or issue: Simple tasks, like contract reviews, typically cost less than handling a complex property dispute or litigation.
  • Experience and location: More experienced lawyers or those in high-demand areas, like urban centers, often charge higher rates.
  • Billing structure: Lawyers may charge a flat fee for basic services like document review or hourly for more time-intensive work such as disputes or litigation.

Flat fees for straightforward services like closing assistance may range from $500 to $1,500.

Hourly rates can range from $150 to $400 or more, depending on the attorney’s experience and location.

Always discuss fees upfront to understand the overall cost of the legal service you're receiving.

Top Questions to Ask a Real Estate Lawyer

Before hiring a real estate lawyer, ask the following questions to ensure they are the right fit for your legal needs:

  1. What experience do you have with real estate law?
    Ensure the lawyer has experience in the type of real estate transaction or dispute you’re facing, whether residential, commercial, or development-related.
  2. What is your fee structure?
    Ask how the lawyer charges for services - whether it's a flat fee, hourly rate, or retainer - so there are no surprises later on.
  3. How long will the process take?
    Especially important for real estate transactions or disputes with deadlines, ask for a general estimate of how long the process will last.
  4. Have you handled cases similar to mine?
    Experience with similar transactions or disputes can give you confidence that the lawyer knows how to handle your case.
  5. Will you handle my case personally, or will it be passed to another attorney?
    Confirm who will be handling the bulk of your case work, especially in larger firms where junior lawyers may take on some responsibilities.
  6. Can you provide references?
    Speaking with past clients can give you insight into the lawyer's experience and how they handle cases.

How to Check the Credibility of a Real Estate Lawyer

To ensure you’re hiring a reputable real estate lawyer, take these steps:

  • Check with the state bar association: Verify that the lawyer is licensed and in good standing with no disciplinary actions on their record.
  • Read online reviews and testimonials: Look for reviews on legal directories and platforms like Avvo or Martindale-Hubbell to see what past clients have said.
  • Ask for references: A credible lawyer should have past clients willing to share their experiences.
  • Review their track record and expertise: Look at the lawyer’s website or LinkedIn profile for information about their experience in real estate law and any relevant cases they’ve handled.
  • Membership in professional organizations: Lawyers who are members of respected legal or real estate organizations, like the American Bar Association’s Real Property Division, often signal credibility and expertise.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To make your first meeting with a real estate lawyer productive, you should prepare the following materials:

  • Relevant property documents: Bring purchase agreements, lease contracts, mortgage documents, zoning permits, or any other paperwork related to your case.
  • A summary of the issue or transaction: Be ready to explain the situation, whether it's a property dispute, contract negotiation, or development issue.
  • Questions about the legal process: Prepare a list of questions about how the lawyer will handle your case and what steps are involved.
  • Financial documents or loan agreements: If the case involves financing or a mortgage, bring any related documents for the lawyer to review.
  • Your goals and timeline: Be clear about what outcome you're hoping for, and if there are any deadlines that need to be considered, such as closing dates or legal filings.

By coming prepared, you can ensure that your consultation is efficient and informative, allowing you to assess whether the lawyer is the right fit for your real estate needs.
