Property Owner

I retained Mr. Waldinger to handle a difficult tenant who was in default of their lease. The matter was quickly resolved and I was very pleased with the outcome. I highly recommend Mr. Waldinger.

A very good outcome navigated by a very good lawyer.

We retained Steven to pursue an eviction after we purchased a house in foreclosure and the prior owner would not move out. I am an attorney but was too close to the matter and Steven came highly recommended for his landlord/tenant expertise. He was efficient, professional, available and compassiona...te. He treated my wife and I very well and treated the holdover tenant with respect while getting exactly what we were entitled to have; possession of the house with minimal delay and no wasted effort. I highly recommend him.

Very Strong firm and Lawyer

I am a Condo owner for 8 years at the Retreat at Carmel N.Y. We are still under builders control and some common elements are past the builders warranty.Our HOA Board in which one the builders employees was President at the time.The board fail to fix and correct our plastic gutters.So we hired Stev...en and his Firm and we sued the HOA.As it turn out the Builder replaced our gutters as well as 36 other Condos wih the similar issues. This all came to do with Steven's hard work,and his great follow up and Tenacious manner. At the end we settled for the best including getting a 2 year warranty on these new replacement gutters. I would highly recommend Steven and his firm. As a side bar our HOA has Hired his firm as our Condo's Transition Attorney.

Balanced, Practical Advice

Our management firm regularly hires several law firms to act on our clients' behalf on issues related to governance, enforcement, ADA compliance, collections, and other matters. Steven and his partners are our default firm because of their practical advice, generally suggesting non-litigious solutio...ns rather than costly (and unpredictable) court actions. The firm is thoughtful in their communication and mindful in their billing. They have provided services to our clients for over 20 years with excellent results.

Professional, courteous and knowledgable

I have had the pleasure of working with Steve for a good number of years now on landlord/tenant matters for the company I work for. Steve's acumen, and knowledge of landlord/tenant law has secured positive results for the company time and again. We are very confident in Steve's ability to handle all... such matters for us. Steve is professional, friendly, and courteous, and I have enjoyed working with him. We look forward to continuing our relationship with him for years to come.
