Real Estate Attorney & Lawyer

Real estate law covers a broad range of matters related to property transactions, disputes, zoning issues, and more. Whether you’re a prospective buyer, seller, landlord, or tenant, having an experienced New York real estate attorney in your corner means understanding your legal rights and the full costs and benefits of your options, including ones you may not even know exist.

Our New York real estate lawyer represents buyers and sellers, lenders and banks, commercial and residential landlords, tenants, and licensees in negotiations, transactions, disputes, and litigation throughout the five boroughs of New York City and Long Island. Your initial consultation with a New York real estate law attorney at our firm is free; we take the time to fully understand your matter, answer your questions, and determine exactly how we can help.

Representing Buyers and Sellers in Residential & Commercial Transactions

Buying or selling a home involves more than signing at closing; we provide legal assistance throughout the entire process, from drafting or reviewing the Contract of Sale through the closing itself, so the terms you agree to actually protect you. We also represent companies and individuals in complex commercial transactions, including purchases, sales, and the drafting, negotiation, and review of lease and licensing agreements, making sure you understand every implication of the contractual provisions you’re signing.

For sellers facing a property that’s underwater, where the amount owed exceeds the home’s value, we also handle short sales, negotiating lender approval to release you from full repayment in exchange for sale proceeds. This is often a far better outcome than foreclosure, and we’ve secured short sale approval from a range of lenders on behalf of our clients.

Title Issues, Closings & Due Diligence

• Title investigations: We conduct thorough searches to confirm ownership and uncover liens, easements, or restrictions before you’re locked into a deal.
• Document review: We review purchase agreements, leases, and closing documents in detail to catch issues before they become expensive problems.
• Lender and title company coordination: Our New York real estate lawyer manages communication with lenders and title companies throughout the transaction, so nothing falls through the cracks.
• Closing oversight: We oversee the closing itself to make sure funds and documents transfer securely, and every requirement is properly satisfied.
• Residential and commercial lease drafting: We draft, negotiate, and review lease agreements for landlords, tenants, licensors, and licensees, tailored to each side’s specific risks.

Resolving Boundary Disputes, Easements & Property Litigation

When conflicts arise over property lines, easement rights, or contractual disputes, we represent your interests through negotiation, mediation, or litigation. Our experience extends to breach of contract claims, landlord-tenant disagreements, and disputes tied to zoning and land use restrictions on development projects.

For homeowners whose property disputes stem from missed mortgage payments or who’ve already been served with foreclosure papers, we provide dedicated Foreclosure Defense and Loan Modification services to help protect the home.

We provide these real estate legal services throughout Nassau County, Suffolk County, Westchester County, Queens, Brooklyn, Bronx, Great Neck, and Manhattan.
