Highly recommend

I had the pleasure to work with Michael on closing the deal of my new apartment and I will definitely use his services again and recommend him to anyone buying a property. Michael is very knowledgeable and he was very responsive to our queries. He also helped us even with the smallest details of the... deal and saved us a lot of money and time. He was also extremely helpful after closing the deal taking care of some issues discovered after the closing. Thank you Michael!

EXCELLENT ATTORNEY

I hired Mike as the Buyer's attorney for an investment condo in Jersey City. My first time buying a condo. He was extremely responsive, knowledgeable, professional and puts the interest of his clients first (at least in my case). Fees were reasonable and clearly stated with no surprises. Never had to... go through a "middle person" (receptionist) to get a hold of him. Always answered phone calls and e-mails the same day (sometimes after work hours). I was amazed at the amendment to the contract he came up with after the attorney review. However, the deal didn't go through due to some factors out of our control but Seller and his attorney refused to return my initial good faith deposit. They wanted me to pay $1,000. Long story short, Mike fought very hard for me and spent so much time (much more than he would spent if the deal went through) and finally, after one and a half months, they agreed to return my deposit (this was after they lowered the amount to $500 but we didn't give in). Mike didn't charge me anything extra despite so many frustrating hours were put into this matter. I will definitely hire him again and highly recommend him to anyone who's looking for an experienced attorney.

Great Results on Real Estate Purchase

Mike was very knowledgeable and worked hard to make sure my deal was handled fairly and that it went through on the fast timeline I was looking for. Would definitely use him again for future legal needs, and would recommend him to anyone looking to hire counsel for a real estate transaction.

Great Real Estate Attorney

As the broker manager here at Weichert Realtors, Jersey City Exchange Place we use Mike Schonberger a lot. He is very responsive to the needs of our clients, keeping them informed, and protecting their rights. Having an attorney who does a lot of real estate is extremely important in keeping a transa...ction together. If you are looking for a good attorney we highly recommend him.

We can heartily recommend the services of Mr. Michael Schonberger for your real estate transactions.

We have used his services on two occasions. Mr. Schonberger handled the sale of our residence in Lawrenceville a few years ago. He also assisted us in the purchase of investment property in Pennington which successfully closed in late December of 2013. At all times, in both instances, we have found M...r. Schonberger to be very responsive to our numerous questions and concerns. This was particularly evident during the most recent transaction in which the Seller of the property was, at times, very difficult with which to work. Mr. Schonberger is a very experienced attorney and, in many instances, was able to anticipate and react to issues before they became problematic and interfere with the transaction's timetable. Most importantly, we were always confident in knowing that protecting our interests was Mr. Schonberger's primary concern.
