Hard working and professional

Mr. Sylvia’s hard work did not underestimate the seriousness of the charge. He did this with integrity, class, attention to detail, and most importantly swiftly. I would recommend him to anyone who is interested in an attorney who portrays a good judgement of character as well as someone who is empha...tic to your situation.

Outstanding...nothing less will do!

Attorney Sylvia is a skilled, knowledgeable, experienced, compassionate, zaelous and patient advocate. Based on my experiences with him, I have every confidence in his abilities and his willingness to help in any way. Always available to answer questions and goes the extra mile for his client. I reco...mmend him highly and without reservation.

Nick Sylvia - Real Estate Attorney

Nick helped me to eviction a tenant. Throughout the process Nick took time to explain the law, listen to our concerns, develop a successful strategy. He was very flexible in scheduling his time to meet with us, and he was always quick when responding to an a phone call or an email. His advice was sol...id and by following the strategy he laid out we were successful. Later, Nick helped to negotiate the sale of our condominium. His careful attention to the details insured that the sale went off smoothly.

Efficient lawyer

Mr. Sylvia was to me and is a blessing to his clients. He went above and beyond to gain as much insight and knowledge of my custody case vs my ex wife. He was compassionate and humble. He made sure that he spoke and explained everything to me in a way that was understandable without using lawyer jarg...on. I highly recommend Mr. Sylvia if representation is needed.

Clean cut. Pleasant. Gentlemen. Very nice.

Nick was very efficient. I did not in no way have to be the go between in my case which I was worried about. He addressed everything I asked in my case and then some. He always kept me calm and reassured me and explained things in depth with me to my understanding. I had no doubts with the outcome th...at was going to unfold. K would and have highly recommended him.
