Handled Everything

I said to Apryl more than once that working with her was one of the best parts of selling our co-op in Brooklyn. She was responsive, patient, positive, honest, hilarious, and kind. On top of that, she made navigating the legal side of real estate a breeze. She's the best

One of the best in the business

Apryl has helped our family on three different occasions, representing us on both the sale and purchase side. She is knowledgeable, helpful at every turn, truly has her client's back, and she gives very good advice. When working with Apryl she tells you like it is and really helps her clients underst...and the details of complicated real estate contracts. She is quick to point out the good and the bad and will help you navigate a negotiation knowing you have a true pro working on your behalf. Apryl is always just a phone call away to answer any question big or small. To top it all off, Apryl is an all around great person and a pleasure to talk to and engage with. We are so grateful we had Apryl in our corner and will continue to work with her going forward. We cannot recommend her enough to anyone who needs a real estate attorney in Brooklyn.

Amazing lawyer, highly skilled, brutally honest, and fun!

Apryl was recommended to us by our Realtor, and after one conversation we knew she would be out attorney. She helped us buy our first home in Brooklyn. We couldn't have been less prepared for the roller coaster. Our deal was complicated, but Apryl helped us through every step and explained everyth...ing to us in language we could understand. She is patient, kind, blunt, scrappy, and hilarious. Apryl has a gift for putting overly complicated legal jargon into blunt, everyday language that we understood. I would definitely recommend Apryl Hand to anyone in the Real Estate market. She is the best!

One of a kind

Apryl is incredibly supportive, available, and helpful. I'd strongly recommend her services to any of my friends in need of a real estate attorney. She's an invaluable resource with a remarkable sense of humor to boot!

Fantastic to work with!

We thought when our offer was accepted that we had made it through the hardest part of buying an apartment in Brooklyn. As first time buyers, we were now in even less familiar territory (they don’t show these parts on HGTV afterall) and we needed trustworthy advice. Apryl was wonderful throughout the... entire process – from the moment I reached out she was very forthcoming about the each step of the process/timelines/financial expectations and provided helpful guidance on what to look for in a mortgage provider. She speaks in lay terms (no lawyer jargon here!), is very direct and will patiently answer your questions, all while maintaining her easy going demeanor and humor. However, what I valued most was that you can tell she has been through it all – she would let us know what is standard, unusual, or a red flag. We encountered a few abnormal experiences with the mortgage/appraisal process, and even had to delay the closing due to a leak that caused damage to our apartment – Apryl ensured things ran as smooth as possible through all of this and built in long-term financial protections related to the damage. I have already recommended her to several of my friends!
