David Hershey-Webb proved to be one of the best attorneys I've ever worked with. I've worked with 6 other attorneys and law-firms in Manhattan for residential and commercial real-estate cases plus business needs over the years. I needed assistance resolving an issue with a large NYC residential landl...ord with their own in-house legal team; Also navigating the new major revisions to ever-changing NYC rental laws. Worth mentioning, all that in addition to understanding the complex NY courts logistics during the Coronavirus pandemic. From my initial phone call with David to closing my case, I couldn't have asked for a better attorney. His most impressive trait was the level of trust he immediately established. I felt like he was on my team and had my back the second he heard my case and felt he legitimately understood my concern. David never made me feel rushed or that he was too busy or my case wasn't big enough, etc. I really appreciated that. David was also knowledgeable of very specific and somewhat obscure laws pertaining to my case and more importantly how to apply them. I highly recommend the services of David and the team at Himmelstein, McConnell, Gribben, Donoghue & Joseph LLP.
