Top real estate attorney

Mr. Schiller was my attorney for my recent co-op purchase. I was impressed by his knowledge, follow-up, and commitment to his work. I commend Mr. Schiller for his ethics, high moral character, and integrity. S. Ackerman

Good Attorney

Mr. Schiller provided me with legal advice on how to start up my business and was able to simplify the pro's and con's of different incorporated structures. Jordan is very knowledgable, has an easy going manner and does not rush his clients, is attentive to your needs and concerns, and provides clear... advice. I would recommend Jordan to all my friends.

Excellent Legal Counsel

I live in a rent stabilized unit in one of the hottest rental markets in Brooklyn, NY. Over the last 5 to 3 years I noticed A LOT of changes, gentrification, etc. and a build-up of hostilities between Landlords and long-term tenants who had struggled to find proper housing during the downturns of the... economy (2006-08) and were blessed enough to stay the course and make a real home in their now much desired locale. Unfortunately, I found myself caught up in contention with my Landlord who took me to housing court (holdover proceedings) without merit. It was stressful, devastating and traumatic to say the least. I never been to housing court before and this experience has changed my life. When I received word that the Landlord was taking me to court, I became desperate and sought out legal assistance to help my case and was recommended to some "seasoned" housing court lawyers who only represented tenants. I presented my case to them and they took action on my behalf even though they were not familiar with the Brooklyn Housing Court terrain. Needless to say, they charged me premium legal fees and the retainer fees was WAAAAAYYYYYY out of my price range (remember I am rent stabilized and only fortunate enough to make a modest salary, living way below my means). I called around to the various Law organizations in the city and the Brooklyn Bar Assoc. referred me to Mr. Schiller...and thank God! Mr. Schiller's rates are fair and reasonable, his legal advice and excellent knowledge of the Brooklyn Housing Court landscape (proceedings, other counsels, judges, etc.) is invaluable. Jordan is very easy to talk to, calm, collected, patient (the other side played tricks, delayed and dragged out the trial period, etc.) and professional in every sense of the word (responsive, informative and utilized multiple means of communication to keep me in the loop). We won the case but now I'm looking forward to the full restoration of legal fees, since this case was superfluous, unwarranted and costly. I highly recommend Jordan Schiller Esq. and his legal firm for all the reasons mentioned above and more!! You cannot do any better in this tough NYC housing market. Best wishes!

Baker VS Lewis Realty

I met Mr. Schiller in December of 2013 after I was being wrongfully evicted from my home and desperately needed legal representation to fight my case which turned out to be a very long and stressful battle. From the first meeting with Mr. Schiller I was confident that he was the right person to ...represent me and his knowledge on every aspect of this case reassured me that everything would end in my favor. Unfortunately we are still in court at this current date but again I have complete confidence in my attorney that all will end well in my favor once this case has come to its conclusion. I highly recommend Mr. Schiller to represent anyone who's going through a difficult eviction, landlord tenant dispute or any legal matter that pertains to housing court. He's a very professional attorney and caring person Thanks for all you've done Mr. Schiller.

I was in good hands when I purchased my new home

There are many lawyers out there who can help you purchase a new home but I am so glad that I went with Jordan's office. This was my first home purchase and Jordan helped me through the process in a professional and patient manner. He was available to answer all of my questions, even on the weekend...s. I highly recommend him for any prospective home buyers.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"In a field in New York where its sometimes difficult to find a really good, reliable attorney, Mr. Schiller stands out. Ive worked with Jordan on several cases. I was not only surprised by the speed with which Jordan got results for our clients, but also his level of communication. Every email is responded to quickly, and all the clients Ive sent his way have only positive things to say. Lets be honest: Landlord/Tenant law is one of the most litigious areas of law there is. Jordan does an amazing job of getting through the fights, and getting results. I highly recommend him."
