Highly Recommended

Mr. Poltielov listened to my recollection of the over 2 years of struggling to resolve my issue and immediately understood what needed to be done and what could be done in my favor - he took the time to explain his plan until we were both assured and in agreement. In less than 5 months it was settle...d. I am forever grateful.

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.

Excellent Lawyer with a Heart!

I have been working with Ariel around 6 to 9 months. I found him very professional, personable, willing to talk with me on the telephone and prompt in returning emails. He did a nice job explaining things to me. He was able to negotiate my timeshare case to a very low amount. I am thankful he took ...on my case and helped me. If he had been the first attorney assigned to me over the past 3 years, I believe my case would have been over sooner. He helped me prevent foreclosure of my timeshare.

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.
