A knowledgable advocate to have in your corner

Judy has helped me in: trust and estates, financing my primary residence, and also in my investment partnership. In addition, she has helped one of the non-profits with whom I volunteer. In all these areas, she has been a great source of information and wisdom, and she has saved me a lot of time, ...money and pain. Finally, she has a great rolodex of contacts that can help in all the legal areas in which I have worked with her over the years. I have worked with many attorneys over the years, and appreciate Judy's intense focus on the matter at hand, as well as her long term strategic views. I could not recommend her more highly. Judy is client focused, and I have always felt that I have gotten more for her than I have given.

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.

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.

Knowledgable, Attentive and Thorough,

We found Judy Mock through the Hyatt program and researched carefully before choosing her to assist us in updating our will and estate documents. We are very happy we did. Judy was very helpful, efficient and did an excellent job overall. She took pains to make sure we understood all that was invo...lved in the decisions we had to make and was responsive to our needs. She is meticulous and dedicated and we would definitely work with her again.

Wonderful Brooklyn Condo Purchase Experience

Working with Judy on our Brooklyn condo purchase was a fantastic experience. She had a great attitude and obvious commitment to helping us get the best outcome possible. We had a long home purchase process involving a number of accepted offers falling through (I believe 5 in total). Judy was very pat...ient and diligent about reviewing each and every offer with urgency and care. She provided strong consultation as to the pros and cons of each deal with a holistic approach. Her process is thorough and always keeps buyers interest in mind. At times that can be against 'what you want to happen' and 'what your agent wants to happen'. However, we found it invaluable to put some faith into her abilities and deep experience. Ultimately we could not be more satisfied with the outcome.
