first property

I recently closed on my first property and Laura made the process as simple and straightforward as possible. She is responsive, thorough, and knowledgable. She walked me through the entire process so there were zero surprises. I couldn't give a higher recommendation.

Highly recommended real estate attorney in New Jersey

We are incredibly grateful, fortunate and honored to have Laura M. Fisher represent and guide us as our trusted legal advisor and transaction attorney on a particularly complicated and nuanced property purchase of a historic multifamily brownstone in Jersey City. Laura is very professional and kn...owledgeable on both residential and commercial real estate transactions in NJ, particularly in Downtown Jersey City and nearby areas. At each step of the process, she was very communicative, reachable, and patient. She took the time to connect with us and explain everything in a digestible and timely manner (e.g., from attorney review to seller credit negotiations and beyond). Laura is also well connected and respected in the industry and was able to provide referrals to various transaction vendors, inspectors, title company, insurance, etc., which saved us a lot of time. Most importantly, we believe she provided institutional-level service and legal advice – paired with a heart of generosity along with a personal touch – that collectively held up to her own higher standard than what is otherwise typical in the industry. Our transaction would not have closed without Laura’s advice and involvement. If you are looking for a real estate attorney in New Jersey who will represent your interests, look no further, reach out to Laura!

There is a reason why she's a superlawyer

I found a buyer for my condo within two weeks of listing it and the buyer wanted to close within two weeks of contract signing. I'm so glad to have found Laura to help me with the closing. She's knowledgeable and responsive. When I had questions she answered them clearly. When I needed to talk to her..., never had a problem. She listened to my concerns and gave great advice. The closing process was smooth. I understand why she's voted a superlawyer by her peers. Highly recommended!

First Multi-Family home purchase in Hudson County, NJ

Laura helped us with our multi-family purchase. She was responsive and answered all of our questions. She was patient with us as first time home buyers and explained the contract process and provided a schedule to help us stay on track with the process through closing. She supported us when we had to... terminate our first contract due to significant issues found with the property during inspection and she worked to get us through a fast closing under our second contract before our interest rate lock expired. We are so grateful to have had Laura represent us.

Highly Recommended as a Buyer's Lawyer for First Time Home Purchase

Laura was a great attorney for my first home purchase! She was able to explain the entire attorney review process, guided us once we were under contract, provided helpful advice around inspection requests, and most importantly, was right there with us during the closing process. She is attentive, tho...rough and responsive. Great communicator and easy to work with. Thank you Laura for all of your help!
