I am so glad I hired Abram Heisler for my housing case

I hired Abram Heisler during a very high-stress eviction and housing situation while trying to maintain stability for my children. From the start, his priority was the wellbeing of my kids, not just the technical legal issues. My landlord's conduct crossed lines, including discriminatory treatmen...t and legal filings related to my familial status and having children in the apartment. Abram took this seriously. He clearly explained my rights, pushed back firmly when necessary, and did not tolerate intimidation or unfair pressure from the other side. What stood out most was how steady and responsive he was. He didn't create unnecessary conflict, but he also didn't allow inappropriate behavior to go unchecked. He was practical, direct, and genuinely invested in protecting my family's housing stability. All in all, he's a nice human being and one hell of a great lawyer. If you're dealing with eviction, landlord disputes, or housing discrimination, especially when children are involved, I highly recommend Abram Heisler.

He is awful! My husband paid him $1k for a landlord tenant case. The point of hiring a lawyer was to get things done fast and properly. Deadline was coming up and he was impossible to reach not even a secretary or para legal. Finally called back on the day of the deadline and said paperwork was all ...set. Come to find out paperwork was never filed! Once again could not get ahold of him still have no heard from him. All he did was waste our time and money which was exactly what we’re trying to avoid with the situation we were already in with a non paying tenant. This man should be disbarred.

I hired abram heisler for an eviction case where I was being evicted from my affordable home, because it was slated for demolition for an apartment complex. With todays housing market I couldn't find any where to go, and needed to stick it out while i looked for housing. Mr. Heisler was recommended t...o me by 2 lawyers and a close friend. He was worth what he charged ten times over. He kept me in the house another year, and i got all my rent back for 2022 and a monetary settlement. He was knowledgeable, communicative, and receptive to what i needed from him. I wouldn't hire any other lawyer. And just to note other than the 2 lawyers and friend that recommended him, When i was at court I ran in to an old friends step father who is a lawyer, when I told him who was representing me he just said "You're in good hands", and to top it off he seems to have a great re pore with everyone at the courthouse.

Atty Heisler was referred as a specialist in tenant/landlord issues. We went and discussed our situation. He asked us simple questions which resulted in him knowing he could help us resolve our situation. There were three cases in total with our Landlord, all resolved in our favor due to the truth o...f the matter. I believe that those who do not think he has done right for them, in his representation for them, where asking for what could not be given. He will not got into court, knowingly to do wrong. If you wanted something you could not obtain from the court system, or wanted what could not be given - you should not have turned to Atty Heisler because he is not that type of Lawyer. The rule of the law, is the rule of the law. He can not change it for you or anyone, he will help you with it, that is why he is good at it because he will not go against it.

Landlord Tenant Extraordinaire!

I cannot understand some of these negative comments. I have dealt with dozens of lawyers in my lifetime and Abram ranks as one of the best in his field. He isnt a criminal attorney or a divorce lawyer, he is a landlord tenant lawyer and if you know one better then send him to me. This is ALL he does.... This is his life. He lives at Housing Court and knows every clerk, every Judge and every security guard. And while that wont get you a "win" it does get you respect when you walk in with a friendly face. He is a pit bull with no mercy and I say that with the utmost respect. I was overwhelmed with joy that he was on my side and the Landlord/Bank wasn't too pleased with my selection. One more thing.. when I met him for the first time he was very clear that he wasnt good with answering calls or returning calls, but he knows the law and his calendar/scheduling. Hire him, pay him and then let him do his thing. If you are a tenant hire him to keep you put and if you are a landlord hire him to get someone out. He is that good.
