This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Excellent, Dedicated

An excellent real estate and business lawyer. The go-to attorney for any business contract or real estate matter. His expertise extends to tax issues as well. I have engaged his services three times, and each time, he surpassed my expectations.

Posted by Amon | October 11, 2023 | Hired Attorney

This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Mr.

I was very positively surprised by John Kiritsis and his professionalism. He treated my commercial case very professionally and expeditiously. He is one of these very small number of attorneys left in NYC that does not want your money before the work is done. That was very surprising for me.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
