Andrew Stephen Roth

I retained Andy Roth to help me sell a residential property. It was a distressed property and I had been struggling for years to short sell it. Andy recommended an amazing realtor, who found a buyer and had a contract on the house within a month. Andy then convinced my lender to forgive the debt enti...rely, and was even able to get my lender to pay me a relocation fee. Although I’ve heard that short sales can take a long time to complete, the whole process – from the time we listed the property with the realtor until we actually closed on the sale – took only about four months. Andy was a pleasure to work with. He was always available for questions during the day, evenings, and weekends. He made the difficult and emotionally draining process of selling a distressed property as easy and painless as I could have hoped for, and my family and I are grateful to have had his help. His rates are reasonable, and you get much more than you pay for. Highly recommended.

I highly recommend Andrew if you have any Real Estate business. I've worked with him 2 times. (Previously, I had a another Lawyer experience but not satisfied). First one is 4 years ago (2011). We had to sell our home as a short sale. And, our tenant didn't cooperated our selling. We had to d...eal with Bank and our tenant at the same time. Andrew was best negotiator. He smoothly took care of our tenant's problem (Our tenant had the nasty lawyer) to cooperate to sell our home. At the same time, Andrew was keep contacting the bank and had a good deal to help us a lot. In a 2 month, we closed our short sale. HIs work was so satisfied and great. After our 1st work with Andrew, I recommended him to my friends and neighbors. Anyone who've worked with Andrew, is satisfied with his excellent works. Currently, we are working with Andrew to sell our condo. We hired him again because he showed us the great work before. He is working very hard for us. Positively, he is negotiating with the buyer's lawyer. We will close ours soon. If I have another RE deal in the future, DEFINITELY, I will come back to him. We are very satisfied with his excellent and quality work!!!

When Andy came highly recommended for my short sale case, I had high hopes with low expectations. I had dealt with many lawyers who only do the minimum and the end result being less than optimal. I quitely held out hope that Andy would be the one to break the mold but told myself that I would not b...e disappointed if he ended up being just another "glorified" paper-pusher with less-than-average negotiation skills. Boy, did he ever prove me wrong! Let me share my case so you would have a better idea. I had two mortages for my short sale property. Both banks seemed to play their game and continued to pass my case from one agent to another. Andy kept pursuing each agent, patienly explaining my case to what seemed to be a new agent every month. Using his pursuasive skill along with his knowledge of real estate law, he was able to receive approval from both banks on the short sale. It wasn't like both banks just laid down in order to get rid of my property from their books. One of the bank's agent was extremely unrealistic with what seemed like very little knowledge of the real estate and typical short sale procedures. After difficult negotiation, the second bank finally approved the short sale with a catch; we had two weeks to close by 12/31. We all know how most people take vacation during Christmas holidays. I thought closing by the end of the year was almost impossible but I was going to do everything I can to try to get this done. I didn't realize that Andy would match my sense of urgency. During the second half of December Andy kept me updated with 15-20 telephone calls and emails. At every step of the way, Andy kept me updated as well as provide all of available legal options I had and I appreciated the fact that he was looking out for my interest above and beyond his. We seemed to have difficult scenarios with all parties involved; buyer's title company, buyer's mortgage company, buyers attorney, and unexpectedly, NJ state bulk sale department. Andy would personally run around to resolve any issues on my behalf. His tireless work ethic and follow through, I'm sure, is what made this work. Now that my case is closed, I look back at what Andy was able to accomplish in two weeks (which also included Christmas). After receiving approval from the second bank, we obtained Certificate of Occupancy in two days (would have normally taken almost a month with holdays and vacation of the inspector), clear up title insurance issues, resolve NJ state tax issues (this was almost a deal breaker), obtain primary mortage bank's approval to receive less money in order to get this deal closed, while dealing with buyer, buyer's real estate agent, and buyer's attorney who weren't so familiar with short sale process. I will be recommending Andy to anyone I know who needs legal help. Even if the cases I recommend to him are not in his expertise, I know he'll recommend the best person he can think of for the case. Combination of his personable nature, prior experience as a prosecutor, unwillingness to accept answers given as final decree, extensive knowledge of real estate law, and tireless work ethic is why Andy is highly recommended. Last word from me. As I write this, I still can't believe someone I did not even know before I took my case to him would have worked this hard for me to resolve my situation. He was my miracle worker on this Holiday!!

I have known Andrew Roth about 1 year. He helpd me modify my home mortgage payment reduced more than 50%. I've seen he put his clients's interest first before anything else. He is definitely one of the hardest working attorneys I ever seen. He did short sale deals for several of my and my wife's ...friends who experienced hardships. All went through smoothly achieving 100% success ratio. Regarding his hours on jobs and fees, I always felt I and my firends under paid him. I
