KK

I just hired Dave for the second time to help me buy a condo in a new building that was being constructed and nearing completion. There were a lot of problems due to delays in construction, permitting issues and my bank not wanted to extend my mortgage rate lock. Dave did an absolutely incredible j...ob handling all of it and got the job done. He is smart, persistent and very easy to work with. Plus, his fee never increased, despite all of the extra work he had to do. This is definitely the guy to hire if you are buyng or selling real estate.

Highly recommended!

We were very pleased with David's services throughout the entire home buying process, from the initial offer all the way through the closing. There were numerous questions we had along the way and David always provided very prompt, thorough answers. It always felt like he had our best interests in mi...nd, and it was very reassuring to have an advocate in our corner that was looking out for us. Clearly an expert in his field not to mention a consummate professional, we would highly recommend David to anyone navigating the home buying process.

Great Lawyer

Daivd is a former colleague of mine (we worked together as litigators at Ropes & Gray) who has gone on to specialize in real estate. He represented my wife and me in a residential closing that involved some pretty thorny issues. David was fantastic. He is exceptionally smart, hard working, expert ...in his field, and has superb people skills. Everything worked out great thanks to Dave's skills and, I have to say, I greatly enjoyed the process.

Excellent Attorney

Dave represented us on two residential real estate transactions. Dave is incredibly knowledgable, detail oriented, focused, concerned for our legal (and financial) well being, and a great guy too! We have recommended him to two other families who have been impressed too.

I highly recommend David Baron

David has represented my wife and me in three separate private residential real estate transactions in Cambridge and in Needham, MA. He has always provided absolutely outstanding service, helping in all stages of the transactions - from making an offer through to closing. He has helped us with som...e very difficult sellers, as well, always protecting our interests very well and ensuring that any issues are quickly resolved. We have recommended David to at least 5 or 6 friends and colleagues who have then retained him as well, and every single one of them has spoken very highly of David. (some of these folks have been doing much more complex transactions than we have, as well - David's experience is very broad).

"Dave is an excellent attorney. I recommend him without reservation. He has represented me and members of my family in real estate transactions. His attention to detail and ability to anticipate and solve problems makes all aspects of the transaction go smoothly. There is perhaps no stronger recommendation for an attorney than the fact that he is the lawyer other lawyers turn to for representation. He has represented many attorneys in Boston on real estate transactions and real estate related litigation, including leading members of the Boston Bar. In addition to family members, I have referred clients to Dave band they have been delighted with work."
