Real state and landlord/tenant issue
Shokry and his team did a great a job with both my home purchase and landlord/tenant issue. There were times when response was delayed but overall, they helped me especially with my disrespectful, arrogant, obnoxious, lying landlord. I terminated my lease 6 months early He. I had issues with heat, door bell (just because I lived on the first floor, they thought I was their doorperson), awakened several times with loud tv and music in the middle of the night, he didn't pay me back for the haul-away of his old fridge. I know how difficult it would have been to get my deposit back. Shokry made sure I got it all back without going to court.

Attorney Shokry Abdelsayed & his staff were extremely trustworthy, helpful, dedicated & professional in handling the closing of our rental house. They were very patient to explain each step of the way and proactive. Most importantly, they were always very accessible whether it's early morning, late evening or even weekend; always prompt to answer questions & reply to emails/phone calls. Would certainly recommend Shokry & his staff for best service.

Great Real Estate Attorney
I would like to express my gratitude to Mr. Abdelsayed and his team for their marvelous support, astounding guidance, and impeccable legal services that they rendered during the sale of my matrimonial residence. The sale process was extremely complex because I am a non-U. S resident alien, and the sale was subject to FIRPTA regulations. During the entire process, I found Mr. Abdelsayed approachable, and friendly with profound knowledge, understanding, and savvy about the real estate laws and regulations in addition to FIRPTA guidelines. The entire sale process took place within the month despite of complexity due to being a non-U. S resident alien and the sale is subject to FIRPTA regulations. I would particularly like to elucidate the role of Ms. Haydee, Paralegal to Mr. Abdelsayed, I found her as a person with the highest professional standards and an astonishing work ethic. Indeed, she proved to be an asset to Shokry G. Abdelsayed, Esq. She assisted and guided in legal matters the best possible approach during the absence of Mr. Abdelsayed in the entire sale process. I will strongly encourage and recommend anyone who is a non-resident alien in the United States and would like to buy or sell a real estate property in the United States to seek legal services of Shokry G. Abdelsayed, Esq for smooth fast, and easy transactions. Indeed, I found Shokry G. Abdelsayed, Esq a legal firm with the highest echelon of integrity and professionalism.

Efficient Professional Service & Personable
Shokry and Hannah were very helpful from the start of my home-buying process. I truly wish I had hired him in previous matters I dealt with as administrator of a family member’s estate, etc. They are very efficient. I would definitely re-hire and recommend him to friends and family.

Excellent Service
It was really great to work with you. Thank you for pulling off the miracle of closing in just a few short weeks so that I could have the house I really wanted. I know it wasn’t easy! And of course, I will recommend you to anyone I know who wants to buy a house. I just wanted to say a BIG thank you for all of your assistance with our home purchase. We are finally done! Hallelujah!!! It was great working with you. Thank you for caring and for all the hand-holding. We sincerely couldn't have done it without you! The whole process was so much easier, smoother, and less daunting because you were a part of it with us. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts! We are so very grateful to you.

Best Lawyer Ever
I highly recommend Shokry G. Abdelsayed. For the first time, I had a court case and scared out of my pants. Shokry and the rest of the team eased my mind about the whole process. He is very dedicated, calls to check in to see how I was doing, reminds me of court dates, and very supportive—definitely excellent customer service and professionalism. I am also thrilled with the results; Shokry was able to get my case dismissed in a short time. Thank you so much for everything! Much respect goes to you and your team!

Awesome lawyer
Attorney Shokry helped me a lot with my divorce and he made everything possible even at this time of pandemic. I received the final decision for my uncontested divorce in less than 2 months only! He is definitely great and he educated me well during the process. Hannah also did a superb job by keeping in touch and giving me updates all the time. I would definitely recommend this firm to anyone needing a divorce lawyer.

The impossible house closing accomplished!
I came to Shokry having been introduced through my real estate agent. We were selling a home that was part of an estate and all of the details just seemed impossible and overwhelming. Shokry was able to navigate the issues for us and deliver a closing without a hitch. He spent a great amount of time talking us through all of the issues yet he held true to his word on pricing. He and his legal aide Hannah were always helpful, always willing to talk and explain things and make us feel comfortable with the process. I can't thank Shokry enough, and will be using him again for our future deals!

Very Satisfied. I highly Recommend
Very Satisfied with their services with the purchase and closing of our home at beginning of November. Mr. Shokry was very knowledgeable and extremely organized, always on time responding to our questions. The best is to set up some time in person or on the phone initially rather than many emails, in this case they always suggested a call which really helped to be on the same page. They were very responsive. Ms. Hannah was very patient and knowledgeable All their staff was essential to completing the process smoothly. Justinn was great at the closing. Very prompt Responses. Very professional. Close attention to details. Even during stressful times due to the pandemic, they promptly returned our initial calls. We called several other law offices in the area with no response or delayed response, maybe due to the pandemic but was really helpful and lucky finding such nice professional law office right in Bayonne. We highly recommend them.
