Exceptional
George was very knowledgeable and professional. He guided us through the nerve wracking process of buying a home. He truly advocated for us and made sure we were protected throughout it all. I would highly recommend him to any friends or family.

Thank you Mr. Fuiaxis!
My wife and I hired Mr. Fuiaxis to facilitate the purchase of our first home and we were so happy we did. George is very diligent and works efficiently. He made us feel like we were a part of his own family by the way he went to bat for us during the months-long process of purchasing our home. His assistant Margaret is also very attentive and knowledgeable. We highly recommend this firm! Thanks again George!

George is a must if you plan to buy a home!
I closed on a home on 4/10/2020. It would not have been possible without George's legal expertise and industry knowledge. He clearly articulated to me the Pros and Cons of VA, FHA, and Conventional loans and what the legal process looks like for each. During legal consultations throughout the process it was clear George had my best interest in mind and never pushed me to expand the scope of the services to increase fees. He also never pushed his legal advice or option on me or forced me to make a decision that he wanted. He always outlined the potential risks for each alternative decision and left it up to me to make the decision. In addition, during negotiations with the bank and Seller's attorney he was able to not only get me what I asked for, but also successfully obtained for me other credits that I did not even think about considering. George is a must if you plan to purchase a home! Thank you, George!!

Great service, smooth closing, covered by Hyatt Legal
George assisted my wife and I with the recent closing on our house. We was knowledgeable, proactive with making sure we were ready with every step of the process and very responsive to all of our questions. George helped us close in just over one month. As an added bonus, George is covered by the Hyatt Legal Plan and was able to submit for processing with no issues. We’ll definitely use George for all future real estate transactions.

Most Reliable Attorney
Our office utilizes Mr. Fuiaxis' services for various things. He has represented us on purchases of one to four family houses as well as a 32 unit building in Brooklyn. He was available to answer every question we had, and he represented us in the most professional and trustworthy way. We have had a most pleasant experience in all our dealing with Mr. Fuiaxis, from the formation of our corporation to the purchases of our various properties. We have also recommended his services to our clients and to family members and they have all had nothing to say but Thank You and the kindest of words to say about him. We highly recommend him to anyone needing an attorney for a real estate transaction as well as any corporation dealings.

Legal Representation on a 24 Unit Building
I had hired Mr. Fuiaxis to represent me on a purchase I made on a building in Astoria, New York. Mr. Fuiaxis explained every step throughout the transaction and he made the experience as stress free as possible. He went above and beyond in his duties as my attorney. I have heard so many horror stories from people in dealings on properties they bought, but I can honestly say that my experience was anything but that. He answered all my questions and always made time to help me out with anything I needed. I am definitely going to be using Mr. Fuiaxis on any future purchases and have already recommended him to family and friends.
