Jodi Marie Materna

Jodi was hired as our real estate attorney as we were going through the process of buying a commercial property in Manhattan. We decided to go with her firm on a recommendation, and what swayed us is that she was available in person if needed. We were not disappointed - Jodi and her assistant Brandi ...were very helpful in keeping us in the know regarding the sometimes frustrating process of buying a Manhattan-based commercial property. It is a solo law practice, so there is no cross coverage - but it didn't affect us significantly as both Jodi and Brandi were very responsive and responsible, helping nudge us along when necessary. Jodi was prepared during the closing day and explained every step point by point. I recommend Jodi without reservations.

Jodi and her team were a godsend. We purchased a coop and they guided us through the process seamlessly. They even pushed hard (and succeeded) for a closing date that worked with our impending mortgage rate lock. Jodi was great at the closing, explaining all the documents without being condescending....

I have been fortunate to do a number of transactions with Jodi & her team. She is diligent, thorough, communicative, and has been a valued asset to my clientele. I truly enjoy her kind demeanor and professionalism, especially in a challenging situation. Personally, I hired Jodi as buyer's attorney... for my own purchase. Not a stone was left unturned, and I had zero questions left unanswered. Simply put, I always suggest Jodi first for my buyers, sellers, & investors.

Please don't hesitate for a second to hire Jodi Materna. I closed on the sale of my UWS apartment in October 2015. From the negotiations with our buyer's attorney to the signing of the contract to the closing (and tying up loose ends after) and everything in between, I was delighted with the degree o...f professionalism, courtesy, responsiveness (if I sent an email or left a voicemail I never had to wait long to hear back), patience, knowledge (and occasional hand-holding) that Jodi and her absolutely terrific paralegal Brandy provided me. I simply cannot say enough good things about them!

I am a graduate of both law school and business school and thought I knew everything when it came time to purchase my first penthouse apartment with my wife in a multi-million dollar building. However, I do not handle real estate transactions at all, and it soon became clear that I needed an attorney... who specialized in this. I was referred to Jodi Materna via 3 different people who do not know each other, and after my first meeting with her, I now know why. She is patient, trustworthy, impressively educated, and sincere. My real estate deal was very complex but she knew how to handle it with poise and confidence. She knows what she's talking about and does not let any stone go unturned. She warned me of things I otherwise was not aware of, and guided me through my real estate purchase flawlessly. Now that it has completed successfully, I have nothing but accolades for her. I most definitely recommend her. And if you don't take my work for it, take someone else's word for it - because I'm sure you too will hear her name buzzing around town. She's the best.
