The most professional, giving, trustworthy and affordable lawyer

To think we almost considered trying to buy a coop without a lawyer is unimaginable after seeing the kind of paper work involved to get the sale done. The task of finding a lawyer we could trust did not sound like something we were ready for. However, we got very lucky by being refereed to Peter S. C...hang, Esq., who turned out be a blessing. He totally made our experience smooth, easy and very affordable. He is very down to earth, always reachable to answer any questions, organized and professional. If need be, he will be our go to Lawyer in the future, as well our recommendation to anyone looking for a lawyer!

Highly recommended!

Peter Chang represented us for two NYC coop closings, and I cannot think of enough positive things to say about our experience working with him. He is thorough, diligent, and extremely responsive, always clearly explaining next steps and timelines, and always available to answer questions. While work...ing with Peter, there was never a time where we felt like we did not know what was happening - he is excellent at communication and at turning things around quickly. Finally, we always felt 100% confident that Peter was advocating for us and making sure that the outcomes were fair and that our best interests were represented. We have already recommended Peter to close friends and they had a similarly positive experience. I cannot imagine having worked with a different lawyer - Peter made the process effortless. I recommend him wholeheartedly.

Peter is a highly trusted lawyer

Peter is a lawyer who truly cares about his clients. He kept me well informed and answered my calls and emails promptly or returned them shortly after calling. When I had trouble with obtaining mortgage from a bank, he proactively provided constructive suggestions and helped me tackle the problem, wh...ich was crucial to the success of my deal closing. My friends who hired Peter were all highly satisfied with his professionalism and efficiency. I would strongly recommend Peter to everyone !

Highly Recommend!!

Peter was extremely helpful, knowledgeable, and a extremely pleasant person throughout the whole process of our purchase. From day one Peter has been completely honest and transparent about what would happen next. It was even a huge plus that I was able to contact Peter at any odd hours and I would a...lways receive a response from him. I would highly recommend him to anyone that is looking for a lawyer as he is truly one of a kind! Our closing was definitely not the most easiest cases if anything is was quite the opposite but Peter was guiding us through the whole process ensuring that we are covered from legal end. By the end the time we were at the closing table Peter was no longer just lawyer but a friend as well. Again I would not think twice recommending him!

I honestly think the whole process would have been a lot more difficult and stressful if I had someone else as my lawyer. Peter is very knowledgeable and experienced, and responded to all my questions promptly and clearly from the beginning till the end, even after the closing. When it was taking t...he bank forever to clear my mortgage application, Peter called and worked things out with the seller and the loan officer, was able to push the deadline and eventually get my mortgage approved preventing me from paying any penalties. Of course, he was very transparent and relayed every single detail to me throughout the whole process. I would definitely use him again in any future transactions.
