Apryl Elizabeth Hand

Apryl Hand was our lawyer for a complicated and drawn-out New York City cooperative purchase. If not for her expertise, responsiveness and dedication to get us to closing the deal would have fallen through a number of times. Apryl got us through it all - explaining our options at each step, keeping ...us from making expensive concessions, and hand holding when we needed it - to the point of editing some of our communications. At the closing, several of the other parties noted that we were lucky to have her as well - it's got to be rare that a lawyer can be a tough negotiator but not burn bridges with your future neighbors. In a word, she's terrific. I'd absolutely recommend her to anyone looking to make a real estate deal in New York City.

Apryl handled two of my purchases and a sale of my apartment. She was recommended by my broker and I was very happy the first time, so I used her again! She is very pleasant but professional and knowledgeable at the same time. She is a no non-sense, unpretentious lawyer with a sense of humor and i...t has always been a great experience for me. When we recently purchased an apartment, my partner was not able to make it to the closing for a complicated reason. Everyone was ready to leave the room thinking this will be postponed. But Apryl made it happen by acting quickly and getting together necessary document so that we could close without him. I will be definitely recommending her service to anyone I know!

I had the pleasure of working with Ms. Hand on numerous real estate transactions. On each occasion, she was knowledgable, accessible, and kept me informed of her progress and any delays. She is very friendly and has a gift for translating "legalese." I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her or work with ...her again.

We were extremely lucky to have Apryl on our side when our real estate purchase process took unexpected turns. Every time we thought we were done with paper work, required documents to be submitted or forms signed again another obstacle would show up. Apryl was always proactive pushing for matters to... move forward. Just when we thought that we are going to lose our very low interest rate, Apryl saved us. She always found ways to get things done when we completely lost hope. She is incredible.
