Client

Rob has represented me for 15 years in complex commercial real estate matters, including acquisitions, sales, drafting and negotiations of commercial leases, tenant-landlord matters, ownership entity creation, and complex title matters. Rob is an exceptional attorney who is attentive to legal nuance ...and he is a zealous client advocate. He is also readily available to speak, when necessary, and he is a professional who conducts his business with the highest moral and ethical standards. I give him my highest recommendation.

One of the Best

Have worked with Rob Finkel for many years now in multiple capacities. He is responsive and knows his stuff. He has done all aspects of real estate law and transactions on our behalf. When there have been things he cannot handle, he has referred me to fantastic attorneys that he works with. I con...sider him an asset, but have also developed a very strong relationship and friendship with rob. I can highly recommend him.

Great attorney for all real estate matters

Robert had helped close on a condo and other matters relating to situations that have arisen in the condo. He is fantastic. Extremely quick in dealing with issues, understanding, thorough and an extremely competent attorney who knows the right course of action. I would recommend him to anyone looking... for an attorney to deal with all real estate matters.
