Gallo got my impossible deal closed.

Without any doubt the best real estate lawyer on Staten Island, and most likely the entire City of New York. I witnessed this first hand at my real estate closing. He literally performed magic and got my deal closed when others said that it was impossible and that it couldn't be done.

Sir: Your transaction was as close to impossible to get to closing as one might imagine. My knowledge, together with your dedicated cooperation got the deal closed. It took both of us to get to the finish line and I am pleased that it all worked out as I had projected.

THE BEST

I know Mr Gallo since 1989 when I purchased my first home and after that I retained his service 3 more times when I sold my residence, when i sold the house that I purchased in 1989 and when I purchased my new residence in Nj.all four transactions were handled with knowledge and professionaIism. I... would recommend his services without any doubt. Thank you.

Simply the best

Vince and his team are simply five star. If you are looking for an attorney who is laser focused on his client's needs, look no further. Vince is extremely honest and provides his opinion and advice in a very straightforward manner. We have worked with his office on three separate real estate sale...s/purchases and he kept each transaction moving forward and on a timeline that worked for us. I would not work with anyone else!

Great to work with

Vince was great to work with not only on the selling/closing of my home due to divorce but also added helped to make a smooth transition with my divorce attorney. Vince stood up for me when no one else did

Sir: I will keep your name confidential. I saw immediately that you were getting "railroaded" from every angle and I was compelled to step in and defend you almost like a "big brother". I am quite satisfied as to how everything worked out for you. You are well deserving of a fresh start in life. Godspeed, brother.

Vincent Gallo and his team were amazing. He prevented us from being stuck with a home that was a Department of Buildings nightmare, in that major construction was done without permits, which would've cost us a ridiculous amount. We just had to pull out of the deal. The contract that he wrote saved us... too, in that we got our deposit back. We are very thankful to Gallo and his team for helping us dodge that bullet. My fiancé and I will definitely be using him again in the future!

Thank you for your kind words. As you know, during the course of this transaction, I sensed there to be a potentially serious problem with the property. Once you had obtained the new survey as I had directed you to do, it disclosed the existence of the recently installed in-ground pool, the one-story addition, and the screen room, none of which had permits, filings and/or approvals from the Department of Buildings. I then advised you to get a written opinion of a Registered Architect who embellished upon the problems that existed with the property which included the fact that the property was subdivided, thereby calling for a new Certificate of Occupancy, only to be compounded by the findings that the footprint of the improvements on the property may now exceed the maximum floor area ratio, which would prevent the issuance of a new Certificate of Occupancy. The only solution would have been to demolish the screen room and the one story addition. Then it got worse. The in-ground pool was illegal, and when the pool was installed, trees were removed, illegally, and as the property is in a hillside district and natural area district, there would be fines for the tree removals in the amount of tens of thousands of dollars for each tree removed, plus the cost of having to re-plant replacement trees. As you see, my obligation to you is to not to get you closed on the house, but instead to protect you from getting stuck with what remains as the Sellers' nightmare, and not yours, as I was able to successfully get you all of your monies back that you had laid out for this transaction. Fortunately for you, we were 100% successful in that endeavor.
