Excellent Knowledge & Service
My process of buying property in NYC was so smooth and graceful. I strongly believe the easy process was because of my lawyer Natalia A Sishodia. She had excellent knowledge and her tasking was exquisite. As a first time buyer from out of state, I had so many questions and she answered my questions right away with her kindness. I will definitely hire her again.

Terrific Attorney
Natalia was just all around great to work with. I was a first time home buyer and I had a lot of questions and concerns that Natialia took time answer and explain. She was very patient and knowledgeable and made everything seems so easy. Natalia is a true professional and I'd use her again!

Mortgage Refinance
Natalia worked tirelessly to move my refinancing process forward after months of back and forth with the loan originator, banks, and coop management company. Before I engaged Natalia, I was doubtful that I would be able to navigate the refinancing process. She was great and highly recommended.

Two Closings and a Renovation
We hired Natalia to sell our NYC co-op and buy our Westchester home. She is responsive, efficient and thorough. Natalia came with us for the walk through of our new home and had great insight on the renovation process as well. Highly recommend and would use again and again.

Efficient and seamless services
We choose Natalia Sishodia as our attorney basing on the reference from a friend, to assist us in the legal process while buying a new condo in Manhattan, New York city. All through, we had dozens of queries, clarifications, issues understanding the legal implications etc. while we communicated with our attorney, she had clarified and communicated to us for each and every query, be it big or small, with tonnes of patience, in a effective manner and in a language which is easily understood by a common man. This was the greatest relief we had after witnessing the enormous documentation, contractual conditions during the entire process. We are very fortunate to avail her legal services, which was a great stress relief for us, while we are busy managing other issues like arranging the finances etc. The whole process was experienced in a friendly manner and more as a well wisher.Sincerely and with a whole heart we would recommend this attorney.

Refinancing for overseas client
Very fast and efficient lawyer. I have used Shishodia Law on 2 cases linked to a property owned by somebody based overseas. It has been a very professional work, done with reactivity and pro-activity. Involved in international trade and travelling very often, it has been very easy to communicate despite 12 hours time zone difference.

I can highly recommend Natalia Sishodia as she was recently my attorney for the selling and purchasing of my Condos.

Her customer service skills are excellent as she is always willing to answer all questions in a timely manner. I would highly recommend Natalia as you closing attorney as she really made what can be a stressful time run smoothly.

Great Experience
My wife and I purchased our first apartment with Natalia as our lawyer. She is extremely helpful and very responsive to any communication we had, often responding very quickly to emails sent way later, or earlier, than normal work hours. The entire process went extremely smoothly, she was very helpful and generally pleasant to work with. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a real estate lawyer.

Coop sale
Natalia was a delight to deal with: always prompt, to the point, very helpful and responsive. It was an even greater pleasure to meet her in person at the closing, when some problems arose, and she acted firmly and appropriately in defense of my interests. She is charming and lovely, but a pugnacious lawyer.
