I would not suggest my friends and family this law firm- based on my recent real estate transaction experience.
Without first discussing with me Saadeh reintroduced the inspection clause (that I had waived) and other changes in the rider and sent to the seller directly. The rider was also 45 paragraphs long. This pushed the seller away and I eventually lost the deal. Saadeh would’ve been fully aware this could be detrimental to the deal. Nothing was apparently wrong with the unit.
Having spoken to a few attorneys now, all of them said they discuss the proposed changes to a contract before sending to the other party. Not this firm! When I asked them about it- Their response to me was-“ check the retainer you had signed. We mention it there how we work”.In the current market when there are many offers on a property and are hard to get them accepted. Changing a crucial part of the offer, long rider annoyed the seller’s side.
Secondly, there was an issue with timing and responsiveness. seller’s attorney responded to Saadeh’s rider on the same day it was sent. (Saying it was unacceptable). Saadeh’s law office didn’t forward that response to me until the following day afternoon (>23 hours later). When it’s a concerning response I should’ve been intimated immediately. This felt deliberate on Saadeh’s part. I couldn’t speak with Saadeh until the third day since the seller’s party responded to our rider. This was in weekday. In the current market when time is crucial, this delay was also detrimental for the transaction.
Thirdly, they asked me to review the riders and comments from both sides and then ask if I had any questions. They were long. I am not a legal expert. A layman’s overview is what I would’ve appreciated.
I couldn’t help but feel that this firm is just going for volume. Killing the deal would have been more beneficial for them in terms of saving them time and still get part of their fee. Saadeh charged me a retainer of $500 upfront. If the transaction gets rejected sooner they still keep their $500 and Gives them more time for their next customer. Many customers are lured by their 4.8 star review I imagine. All other lawyers I spoke with said they ask for payment at closing. Not This office.
I really hope this review helps people find a good attorney not blinded by the stars in the review.. Also, Raaj Saadeh are not exclusive real estate law firms- divorce, criminal and real estate.

Thank you so much Sameer. That was one of the most informative sessions we've had with an attorney. Thank you for clearly explaining our options, the process and most of all, alleviating our concerns. We know our nephew will be in good hands :)

I've been working with Sameer Kumar for almost a decade. He has been with me from my H-1B renewals to my family's Adjustment of Status. I've been with him throughout all these years for one reason . . . I trust him. My husband and I just recently got our green cards. It was a long road, but I knew we were in good hands. I will always recommend Sameer and his team. Great person, great attorney.

I can't believe that I finally received my U.S. citizenship! It's been such a long road. Thank you Sameer for being with me every step of the way right from the beginning. This is so emotional and I can't begin to tell you how much this means to me.
Rajita, thank you for helping in completing all the paperwork (I know it was a lot) and for answering all my questions. Without your help it wouldn't have been possible for me to get my citizenship.
Last but not least….. Maryer, I also want to thank you for your help that you did with coordinating everything, conveying messages and always keeping me updated. You handle things very well. Thank you.
I really appreciate each and everyone's help from the bottom of my heart. There are not enough words to express my happiness. Thank you all!

I highly recommend Sameer to anyone who wants to file for their green card. Just last week, my husband received his. Sameer prepared the documentation and prepped us for the interview so well that the officer didn't ask for anything. It was quick and easy. A big thank you to Sameer and his team.
