Unreasonable rent increase

Dean helped me by providing a letter after I received a $400 per month rent increase. I had been living there for 15 years. Thankfully it was settled out of court after the letter was received. I really appreciate all of his help with this. Aside from the success, he was consistently prompt with his ...responses and very pleasant to work with. I would recommend him:)

Dean and his team are excellent to work with.

Dean was recommended by our real estate agent to handle the sale of my elderly mother's home in NJ after I moved her across the country to be close to me. He could not have been more helpful, responsive and thorough. He and his assistant, Danielle, handled every detail, kept me informed on the progre...ss, and were always available to answer any questions that I had. All for a very reasonable fee.

Land/Tenant

Dean was recommended to me when I needed assistance with landlord/tenant legal questions. He is highly knowledgeable of the legal system as well as easy to talk with and understand. In other words, he explains issues in a clear and concise manner for any layman. Since we have been working togethe...r (for more then a year) on many aspects of those landlord/tenant issues, I have felt extremely confident in the decisions I have made with him by my side. In my opinion, I would highly recommend him for ones real estate and landlord/tenant needs.
