What A Lawyer Should Be

I was illegally locked out of my apartment earlier this year. I was in a state of panic and did not who to turn for. Then I found Mr. Alper. Mr. Alper is everything you look for in an attorney. He is honest, effective, takes your case to heart as if it were his own, is reassuring and extremely compet...ent and skilled. I would and will recommend him to anyone in need of an attorney in the New York City area, as he is truly fantastic.

"Mr. Alper is an exceptional attorney. Although I have been practicing law for 24 years as a judge, magistrate, law professor, prosecutor, and private attorney, I learn from his responses on Avvo every time that he posts.

Real estate lawyer | Apr 28

Relationship: Other

"Recently, a client I sent Edward was told by his prior attorney that he could not successfully litigate a very complex Real Estate matter because "it has never been done in New York". Edward's response was "It's not that it can't be done, it's that it hasn't been done yet". Sure enough Edward tackled the matter and his client couldn't be happier. Personally, I know Edward to be a very zealous attorney who gets results. I am happy to endorse Edward as one of New York's superb attorneys."

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.
