Garrett Knows His Stuff!

I have utilized Garrett several times for a range of reasons, including for seven different real estate closings. He demonstrated his expertise and ability to deftly walk a thin line with negotiations on multiple occasions. In every instance, Garrett has successfully navigated the byzantine laws of... New Jersey on my behalf. I highly recommend him.

Expert Legal strategy and advice

Atty Garrett Simulcik was an amazing help to us in an eviction and sale of our rental property in 2022. He took on what we all thought would be a standard eviction case which turned sideways at all possible points. He navigated us through the disjointed Hudson County court system as they were figurin...g out a post-COVID docket load. He also deftly dealt with a former tenant whose apparent main goal was not resolution but to cause additional grief for all involved. In the end we gained possession and were able to put the condo on the market. Next, Mr. Simulcik got us through closing including an 11th hour twist with the buyer trying to gain additional concessions protecting us from more expense. His deep knowledge and experience through all of our matters was absolutely invaluable. He guided us to understand the law better in our situation, including help correct misconceptions we picked up online. We are very grateful for his skill and ability to handle us as a client with our modest understanding of our options. We will turn to him again for counsel and advice on any legal matters.

Responsive and Thorough

I asked Garrett to review a lease. Garrett provided quick yet thorough feedback while advising me of all of my options. He advised me of all of my options and could not have been more helpful. I would definitely contact him again if I have another issue.

Very helpful attorney

had dispute with landlord and previous roommate. Landlord threatened me they would charge me for unpaid rent even if I moved out as long as not all tenants moved out. Most online resources told me I was gonna lose a lot of money. Garrett helped me with professional service, and saved me a lot of ...trouble. I was really satisfied and would definitely recommend him.

Great Attorney

Garrett was very professional and extremely knowledgeable with the law. We were very pleased to use him. Garrett did not only get the job done, but he got the job done above my expectations. Our civil lawsuit would have been much worse without Garrett.
