Home purchase

Ben was kind, courteous, and receptive. We used him to purchase a home and he answered all of our questions quickly and made himself available as needed.

Great Real Estate Attorney

Ben and his paralegal Morgan were terrific in our recent house sale. Handled everything from A-Z and most importantly kept us informed and calm at every stage of the process. If you are looking for a knowledgeable attorney who can navigate all the hurdles of real estate closings, Ben is your choice. ... I would definitely recommend Ben for any of your real estate needs.

excellent and detail oriented lawyer

Ben handled the closing on our house purchase in Ridgewood. He negotiated some sewer line work, and got us a good deal from the seller. He was patient and detail oriented in explaining the process.

Very pleased

I used Benjamin B. Cooper for 3 closings in the past couple of years. All closings went perfectly smooth as he did an excellent job. Very knowledgeable & pleasant person to work with too. Will definitely use his services again.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education

  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
