Lawyer serving Long Island, New York, Nassau, Suffolk, Queens. Brooklyn, and Westchester Counties, in the areas of real estate closings, bankruptcy, probate, estate planning and administration, uncontested divorce law, and general practice.
Purchasing or selling a house, condominium or cooperative is a major event in one's life, and your attorney should treat it as such, whether you are a first-time home buyer, or a seasoned investor. With over twenty-five year experience in the legal aspects of real estate deals, and ten years practicing law, your purchase or sale will be handled with the intelligence and practicality necessary to get the deal done to your satisfaction. Each deal is handled personally and directly by me, and your phone conversations are with me.
Contracts will be prepared or reviewed in a prompt manner. Since real estate contracts can be time sensitive, I accommodate my clients by meeting with them during evenings and weekends when necessary.
You will be guided throughout each phase of the process. Before clients sign a contract, I advise them on all aspects. All buyer's closing costs are reviewed, to make sure the deal is structured in such a way that the buyer has enough money to close. I advise my clients not to sign any broker documents unless reviewed by me. A buyer should obtain an inspection before signing a formal contract, and determine if there are any buried oil tanks on the property.
Purchaser's title report is ordered directly from an underwriter that have low fees for searches, and don't add "junk fees." Many title companies charge significantly more.
Your closing will be attended by me, and all issues will be determined and resolved to ensure a smooth closing.
Although the Bankruptcy Laws changed in October of 2005, many people, based upon their salary and dependents, still qualify for a full Chapter 7 bankruptcy. This means that all dischargeable debts will be eliminated upon a discharge. If a person does not qualify for Chapter 7, then a Chapter 13 can be arranged, whereby all or a percentage of debts are paid over a three to five year period of time.
Bankruptcy is a complicated process that requires the advice of an experienced lawyer. I have ten years experience, including filings under the new laws. If your debts are becoming overwhelming, and you are being harassed by debt collectors, give me a call to discuss your possible strategies.
