Portale/Randazzo is "without question" the highest quality criminal defense law firm in Westchester!
On behalf of a family member and close family friend, both former clients of Portale/Randazzo and in each case (non related separate matters) declined and labeled hopeless by other attorney(s) upon their introduction, Richard Portale carefully reviewed the details of each case and graciously accepted the challenges. He then guaranteed a successful outcome, fought for justice and won!
Rich and his team have an extensive knowledge of our laws and rights and they are undoubtedly committed to providing every client with the respect, privacy and attention they deserve.
Most importantly, Richard Portale is a genuinely compassionate and patient person (perhaps a rare quality in this field) making it clear that everyone should be comfortable asking/answering any questions. He and his team were very supportive throughout the process, reassuring doubts and being concerned with everyone's wellbeing, which makes the overall experience a lot less stressful!

I fell into a legal matter regarding my dog and wasn’t really sure what my rights were. Keith listened to me and really made sure I understood my situation and saved me literally thousands of dollars. I honestly don’t know what I would have done without him. I totally would recommend Curan & Ahlers to anyone seeking legal assistance

I researched quite a few firms before deciding on Denlea & Carton, and I couldn’t be happier that I did. They surpassed my expectations in every respect. They were kind, patient, and extremely knowledgeable. They treated my case as if it was their own, and never backed down from the fight with the defendant until they obtained an incredible result for me. There is a difference between law firms, and I’m glad I took the time to realize it. I would recommend Jim and Jeff (and everyone else who helped me) without hesitation. They’re terrific!

"Recently I found the need to hire an attorney. I hired the firm of Denlea & Carton and highly recommend them. They are very professional. Their expertise and knowledge were exceptional. They stayed in touch with us every step of the way, and made a very stressful situation for our family so much more bearable. They were a pleasure to work with, and brought about a very positive result for us."

Putting my trust in Injured941 when it came to my legal matter was the best decision I could have made. Not only did Jeff and John make me feel like I was in the right hands, but they went above and beyond to get me the settlement I deserved. They are highly experienced, responsive, knowledgeable, honest and trustworthy, and they made sure they always kept my best interest and unique needs at the forefront. I highly recommend them to anyone seeking legal representation that is looking for a fair and honest experience and settlement. Should the situation ever arise again, Injured941 is the only law firm I would seek representation from.

I’ve been a client of Denlea & Carton since July 2018. From my earliest meeting with Jeff and Amber, to my most recent meetings with Jim and Debbi, and at every meeting in between, the firm has always made me feel like a member of their family. They took the time to get to know me (and my family), and have gone above and beyond to make me feel comfortable and secure. I felt a huge weight lift off my shoulders knowing that they would represent my best interests in pursuing a recovery for the personal injuries I suffered, allowing me to focus on my emotional and physical recovery. My calls and emails were always answered immediately, and the firm took the time to explain everything they were doing and to ensure I understood and approved their efforts. Jeff and Debbi were relentless in pursuing my claim, and left no stone unturned when it came to getting me the settlement I was able to achieve. Their dedication to my case really paid off in the end. I’m so happy I chose Denlea & Carton to represent me in my time of need, and I couldn’t be more thankful for everything they’ve done for me and my family.

The Denlea and Carton firm did an excellent job with my case. They explained every aspect of the case and guided me through the entire process. Every time I contacted them with a question or they reached out to me I was met with professionalism, kindness, and an overall willingness to help. I would highly recommend them for litigation services. Their sense of compassion made dealing with a difficult situation bearable. I couldn’t thank them enough.

Joe, as someone else said, is "The best of the best" for estate planning purposes and estate matters.
He is extremely busy so sometimes he comes off as being abrupt. My parents used his services, their friends used his services and now I use his services. You will do yourself a big favor using Joe for your estate planning - he loves what he does and he does it so well.

I had a difficult time communicating with Tracey. Specifically, I asked her to "clarify" why the final bill was more than "twice" the estimate she gave. Her response was "I will put down my pen" if you do not pay. No clarification. In fact her response is against the code of ethics for the New York Bar which advocates resolving disputes "amicably". Tracey was not resolving disputes "amicably" in this instance. In fact, she is often less than "amicable", and unprofessional, if she feels challenged.
As well, her office "makes mistakes". For example, I have the same documents notarized "twice" because they "expired". The reason they "expired" is because we were missing a Certificate of Death. I expect Tracey to be on top of required documentation and not come up "short" the last minute.
Bottom line, the transaction took six months because of Tracey's lack of attention to details (such as the missing Certificate of Death). To rub salt on the wound, she charged more than twice the estimate because it took "so long" to close.
Do not recommend.

Dear McBean family,
My name is Ronald. I got the details of McBean on the website as I was reviewing lawyers in New York.
I made a request for a consultation.
It was very professional right from the booking , a reminder call an hour before our scheduled appointment and the appointment was right on time. The consultation was way above my expectations. I was guided not only about what I wanted but the spaces were opened up with a number of options.
I’m truly thankful and will definitely engage the firm for the next phase and also give positive referrals to friends .

I highly recommend Lever & Ecker for their exceptional professionalism and support. During my initial consultation, the staff demonstrated remarkable empathy and understanding of my situation. Although my case fell outside their area of expertise, they diligently followed up to ensure my well-being and provided valuable information relevant to my case. Their commitment to going above and beyond in assisting me, even when they could not represent me, was truly impressive. The care and consideration shown by the team surpassed my expectations. I am sincerely grateful for their assistance.

Portale/Randazzo is "without question" the highest quality criminal defense law firm in Westchester!
On behalf of a family member and close family friend, both former clients of Portale/Randazzo and in each case (non related separate matters) declined and labeled hopeless by other attorney(s) upon their introduction, Richard Portale carefully reviewed the details of each case and graciously accepted the challenges. He then guaranteed a successful outcome, fought for justice and won!
Rich and his team have an extensive knowledge of our laws and rights and they are undoubtedly committed to providing every client with the respect, privacy and attention they deserve.
Most importantly, Richard Portale is a genuinely compassionate and patient person (perhaps a rare quality in this field) making it clear that everyone should be comfortable asking/answering any questions. He and his team were very supportive throughout the process, reassuring doubts and being concerned with everyone's wellbeing, which makes the overall experience a lot less stressful!

Amazing. If you are thinking about making a big decision in your life financially, Mr. James J. Rufo is the lawyer to go to. I was ignorant about bankruptcy as a whole and he guided me through this process with everything I needed to know and made me feel it was okay to make this decision. By choosing him and decide to file, it felt like the weight was lifted on my shoulders of financial burden. Thank you James.

After firing my first TWO LAWYERS, I was finally relieved to have found Natalia. I had just escaped an abusive relationship and my ex decided he wanted to sue me for custody of our 1 yr old son.. (Even though he never showed any interest in being a father until I got the courage to leave him) He was incredibly skilled at playing the victim and I needed someone who was able to not only recognize this but to have the ability to present the truth to the judge. From our first consultation, I knew I finally found the right representation with Natalia. She was incredibly intelligent, attentive and perceptive. She helped me to navigate this nightmare with such professionalism and tenacity. After 2 1/2 years of litigation, the judge in fact saw that my ex dragged me to court under “self serving” purposes and awarded me Sole Legal AND Physical custody with permission to relocate out of state. This was a complex case and if not for Natalia’s wisdom and expertise, not to mention compassion, I don’t know where my son and I would be today. Lawyers are a dime a dozen but very few actually CARE about their clients. This is definitely what sets Natalia apart from all the rest. I highly recommend her if you find yourself in a contentious custody and/or divorce case. She will keep you grounded, focused and empowered with knowledge of applicable state laws.

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:
-
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. -
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. -
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. -
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. -
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. -
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.
