We were absolutely thrilled with the work of Albert Durante, Dan Tota, and Amanda Abel during the purchase of our home in April 2017. They helped guide us through every step of the process, clearly explained all our options, and advocated for us from contract through closing. They are a full-service shop, able to work seamlessly with all parties, from the mortgage broker, the bank, the real estate agents, and the title company. These professional relationships developed by Durante, Bock, & Tota saved us both time and money, both values so critical during a closing! We can't recommend DBT strongly enough! Call them today!

Dan Tota assisted us with the purchase of our first home. He was wonderful to work with thoroughly walking us through the process and answering all our questions along the way. His team was also equally helpful and knowledgeable.

The results from having Dan Tota represent me were nothing short of a miracle! I was really in the worst position in my life when I was given Dan's number. I had signed an agreement with the sellers without a mortgage contingency. I put my life savings down as a deposit and was about to lose it if I couldn't close the deal. Everything was falling apart and the lawyer I was using told me he could no longer help me. Dan worked with me every step of the way in a friendly, kind, and informative manner. He negotiated with the sellers for more time and helped me find the right financing so I could close the deal I could not recommend anyone more highly and because of Dan I am now the very happy owner of my dream home!

My husband and I know nothing about purchasing a home so when the time came we had millions of questions. Dan and his team were nothing short of amazing. They took the time to review all information and explain each step of the process. The seller's lawyer tried having us sign several bizarre contracts and every step of the way Dan continuously guided us against it as well as fight hard to make sure we were protected. Dan and his time are punctual and friendly and I plan to use them again in the future for all my legal needs.

Dan Tota represented us during the purchase of our first home. He and his firm could not have been more easy to work with, pleasant, on-the-ball and knowledgeable. He truly made us feel at ease during a very stressful time, and took the time to walk us through the process with a confidence that was very reassuring. We would hire Dan again in a heartbeat. Wonderful experience!

Daniel Tota represented us on a complex and difficult high-value real estate transaction. He was and is superb. We will be returning to him and his firm for years to come on whatever issue arises. We have been astonished by his competence and integrity. He ranks among the very best attorneys we have ever encountered. His fees are a fraction of his worth.

I met with Dan to review a problematic real estate transaction that I am involved in because my current attorney has been less than responsive. He was extremely professional and thorough even though I was not his client. He met with me for over an hour to review my documentation and discuss my situation until I had a good understanding of what my options were even if I kept my current attorney. I am truly appreciative of the time and patience he had with me and I know I will be hiring him in the near future!

I highly recommend Daniel and his colleagues! They were efficient, well organized, and most important, they were knowledgeable about our specific needs. Everything was explained well and he made sure we understood everything before proceeding. Will use again and again should the need arise!

I can't recommend Dan Tota enough. He is really great: communicative, clear, friendly, always available, and very diligent on your behalf. He made the process of buying my first home in the area very straightforward, and not at all stressful. I will recommend Dan without hesitation to everyone I know.

My wife and I have very stressful, fast-paced jobs and two kids we are juggling. The stress from our daily lives alone can be enough to drive you insane, let alone adding in purchasing a new home. We needed someone who wasn't just a good attorney, but could take charge of the process, help us manage the multiple actors involved in the transaction, mortgage broker, real estate agent, banks, etc. Dan stepped up and helped own this process in a way that allowed us to lessen our stress. He gave us complete confidence that this transaction was in good hands and that he had our backs. I will use Dan for every legal matter my family ever needs and I have already sent close family and friends to him because I just trust him and his staff to not only be good attorneys, but leaders helping us get through a major event in our lives.

My husband and I recently moved back to New York after residing in Los Angeles, CA for 5 years. Once we found the home we wanted to purchase (our first), we were referred to Dan through our real estate agent and are thankful we followed her suggestion. Dan and his staff were friendly, reliable, and extremely knowledgeable. The process of buying a home was always explained clearly and never sugarcoated so we knew what to expect. He and the staff allowed us to ask as many questions as needed and never deterred us from continuing to ask more. We highly recommend him!!

Daniel Tota is not only well versed in dealing with all tax related matters but is also able to provide counsel in a variety of other financial, business and family issues. He was very easily accessible at all times and kept me up to date on all matters. He was very knowledgeable and researched current changes in the laws required. He remained professional at all times and worked diligently while representing my case. His staff were also very professional, pleasant and efficient. I would highly recommend him.
