Mr.

Ariel represented us on a timeshare exit negotiation. He was responsive and answered all of our questions in a reasonable amount of time; always got back to us and provided advice on the negotiations. I would use him again.

I Highly recommend Rafael Ariel Poltielov

I had one of the easiest and best experiences with my attorney Rafael Ariel Poltielov. He was extremely professional and very patient in helping me with the selling of my house. He was very responsive on the phone and via email. He took the time to explain anything I did not understand and was very o...rganized through out the entire process. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a real estate lawyer.

Excellent professional service

I hired Mr. Poltielov as a buyer's attorney. Ariel was very prompt returning my phone calls and emails. He was always very polite, patient and answered all my questions. I am a first time home buyer and I asked a lot of questions. Mr. Poltielov hired the Title Company on my behalf and they helped me ...to resolve some issues with the title. His fees are reasonable and service is outstanding.

Condo owner vs. board of management

Mr. Poltielov did an excellent job with my case. I hired him to sue my condo building and management company because I was being overcharged on my monthly common charges. I tried to handle it on my own, but did not get anywhere with my condo board for three years. Mr. Poltielov filed a lawsuit and th...e matter was resolved within 4 months. Plus he was able to get my reimbursement for all my legal fees from the condo building. I was very happy with his services and would highly recommend him.
