Eric is great. He handled both the closings for our coop and the purchase of our house. He was a tremendous advocate and fighter, especially when our purchaser's attorney tried to argue that we needed to close on our coop the day after receiving final approval. Eric did not back down and both parties were able to reach a more reasonable resolution. Eric was also very helpful with the purchase of our home. He answered our questions in a timely manner which was very helpful for first time homeowners. I would recommend Eric for any real estate transactions in New York City.

Wasn't happy with the way our closing was handled. Insisted we put money in escrow, and we were never able to retrieve this. Just wanted us to close so he gets paid.

We used Mr. Firestone for a closing. He made the process exceedingly easy, smooth & stress free. When needed, he was always reachable, including after hours & weekends. He was very knowledgeable and helpful. In addition his fees for his service were very reasonable. I would not hesitate to use him again and would highly recommend Mr. Firestone to anyone interested in legal help

I’ve used Eric Firestone on 5 of my transactions and each time he was extremely responsive, proffessional and made sure my interests were always represented. The transactions would not have gone as smoothly as they did without his knowledge and expertise.

Eric Firestone recently represented me when selling my late grandmother’s home. It was a complicated and emotional sale. The house was in our family for 50 years and of course wasn’t the easiest to part with. Eric and his paralegals Amanda and Maria were incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. I couldn’t believe how smoothly and quickly the deal closed. I would highly recommend Eric and his office to anyone in need of a real estate attorney!

We just closed on the sale of our house, and Eric was with us every step of the way. He came up with creative solutions when the buyer stopped cooperating, and fought for us. He made us feel supported and informed. Because of his forward thinking and experience, the transaction went smooth and the closing happened as planned. Highly recommend!

Quotes his prices wrong.
Purposely is not on Yelp, Fb, etc so he can dodge reviews it seems.
Asks for documents that’s are standard for a closing like mine only one business day before despite being hired in advance.
Office continuously asked questions they already had the answers too. Asked me for documents again even though they were attached to the same email thread I was being asked on.
Lost paperwork twice (first my closing papers were sent to the wrong place, and then the office girl said she couldn’t find my check cause it confused her it came in two checks).
Gave me a hand typed paper on his letterhead of my closing accounting instead of official papers.
Almost 3 weeks now since he has told me I will be getting an official summary from title company explaining where exactly $9600 went and how they came to this amount. Have not received it.
3 weeks now he has ignored my emails.
3 weeks now since he offered $200 refund for his staff over charging me. Have not received it.
I am making a complaint with the board.
I am making a complaint to the state.
I am making a complaint to consumer affairs.
