Outstanding services for our Home purchase

Ms. Mock did an outstanding job from start to finish on the purchase of our home. Ms. Mock explained all the details involved and looked out for our interests from the beginning of the process to the end. Our emails were always returned promptly and she took the time needed to answer any and all ques...tions that we had. I would recommend anyone needing legal assistance for a home purchase or trust to obtain the services of Ms. Mock. I found her fees to be very reasonable for the quality of services that she provides and she was a pleasure to work with during our home purchase.

I would definitely recommend Judy to anyone who is interested in purchasing a house

Me and my boyfriend were to buy a two family house. I found Judy online, read her good reviews, and contacted her. She responded to my very quickly; after a quick call, she sent me a to do list, which is a very clear and helpful guidance. We scheduled a meeting to go over our contract. Before the mee...ting, she already did all the DD, and a lot of research on the house(which i am not sure if all attorneys would have done so, I purchased a condo in 2017, closed with a different attorney, back then, I didn't interact with my attorney much or discuss all terms in details, maybe because condos are easier. ). At the meeting, she explained to us about the potential issue of the house; explained the terms in contract and how we can best protect our down payment deposits in multiples ways; and all other perspectives that we should add/change in the contracts to help us, she didn't overlook any details. She didn't rush us to get in contract/close the house so she could get paid, instead, she expressed her concerns on the issues of the house, and gave us very helpful suggestions on what we could do if we really want the house. We truly felt that Judy acted best for her client, and make sure we don't get into a contract while end up with a lot of troubles. Me and my boyfriend researched more on the issues of the house, and ended up deciding not to buy the house(which saved us a lot of money and time). Judy is very experienced, and thorough, she is very honest and very straight to the point, she is definitely a great partner if you want to buy a house and we felt really lucky to work with her and she helped us stay away from a trouble house. We will find our dream house and close with Judy for sure.

Great Lawyer

I recently used Judy to purchase my house on Long Island with my wife. Judy is very attentive to detail and was extremely helpful in understanding the clauses in the contract. She handled all interactions with the seller's attorney timely and within the same day. At closing, she broke down each cos...t that we were paying with our closing cost and we knew exactly how much money was to be paid before we showed up to sign the papers. She was very up-front about certain circumstances and what could or could not be negotiated with the seller. Judy was very thoughtful and accommodating with her schedule and gave multiple times when she could meet. She made my first home purchase very easy and got us into the house 21 days before the original close date which was amazing. I would highly recommend Judy for any real estate purchase.

Excellent

I am a first time homebuyer who closed about 3 weeks ago. Judy is good. She was straightforward and detailed all the costs that may be involved in the process. She was very responsive with any questions and concerns I raised throughout the process. When we reviewed the purchase contract togethe...r, she highlighted everything of concern, including things I didn’t pick up. Throughout the process, she gave very good instructions on what to do and what to expect next. At the closing, she was very good at explaining the payment details. At the end of the process, I did not have any more questions for her. She had answered all my questions. I would recommend her to other people and would reach out to her again for any other legal services she provides.

Terrible lawyer

I need to write this while its fresh in my mind. Do not use this lawyer. She is terrible and negligent. She has overloaded herself and missed things on more than one occasion. She has screwed me in my house purchase and in the end I have to eat the costs not here so I warn you DO NOT USE HER. I h...ad told her that I had wanted to move in as soon as possible yet she failed to informed us that there was a cause that included a 30 days period after the closing allowing the sellers to stay. She also failed to negotiate any monetary reim5bursement for us. So basically the sellers can stay 30 days on my dime. What kind of lawyer does this? I pay her to ensure I get what I want not to help the sellers. Also when we signed the contract she wrote the wrong amount on my down payment check and we had to personally send another check to the sellers attorney. Talk about being unorganized. Another time, she wasted her own time and mine trying to negotiating a clause that was already finalized. If she spent more time on the other part maybe I would not be in this predicament. She also make a mistake doing simple math through one of our email correspondence. I believe her reviews are fake so please take my warnings to heart. You do not want her. I am so frustrated over this. I have switched a lawyer right before my closing cause she has messed up too much . If you have her drop her. If you dont please look somewhere else. Also if you have any questions I will gladly answer them so you wont make the same terrible mistake I did.

I am very sorry my services didn’t meet your approval. Unfortunately, I believe your review is plagued with inaccuracies due to: (1) you had the contract at least 2 weeks before you entered into the same, (2) we had three separate consultations regarding the review of the contracts; (3) I specifically asked you (and all my other clients) if you had any questions prior to the execution of the contracts; and (4) I always try to make myself available to answer all questions posed by all clients. Notwithstanding the same, I wish both VS and you the best of luck in your future endeavors. Take Care. Dear Avvo Community: As can be seen by my numerous 5 star client reviews on Avvo, Yelp and other online sites, I absolutely care about my clients and I take my responsibilities extremely seriously. I always strive to zealously represent and protect each of my clients. It is disheartening that some individuals feel the need to defame my good name with false reviews and malicious lies. We let all of our 5 star client reviews speak for themselves and hope we are able to help you in your time of need. Please feel free to me for your all of your legal needs.
