Most Competent Legal Representation.

Letter of Recommendation. This month my wife and I decided to purchase a second home in Long Island NY. Since buying a home is the most expensive purchase anyone will make in their entire lifetime, it’s imperative that you obtain the best affordable legal representation. Once we ha...d an accepted offer on the property my realtor recommended three possible attorneys whom I contacted immediately. Within a couple hours of making the calls Mr. Harvey Fox was the first to returned my call. After about five minutes of conversation I knew that we'd found the right attorney. What was noticeable about Mr. Fox’s representation was the fact that he consistently pursued every aspect of the purchase with focused, thorough, determination to secure our best interest without taking any shortcuts. I can honestly state that as a retired U.S. Coast Guard Military Officer who served for over thirty three years I encourage all active duty and retired Military Personnel in search of a competent and reasonable attorney to contact Mr. Fox at [email protected] Office 516 742-1344. This is not the first home that we've purchased but I wish we had Mr. Fox on our team before. Once you’re committed in the midst of a home purchase with a pretty sizable non-refundable security deposit on the line, that's not the time to be worrying about your attorney's competence. Because we had Mr. Fox on our team with over thirty six years of experience we were in good hands. He’s a competent, knowledgeable, responsible attorney who navigates through the legal channels of the complicated home purchase process without any difficulty from start to closing. Thanks Mr. Fox for helping us successfully purchasing our newest home. Also, Mr. Fox consistently responded to our texts, emails or voicemails almost immediately even when he’s in court. We’re happy and completely satisfied with the legal services provided by Mr. Harvey Fox and Mr. Steve Fox. They’ve my highest recommendation and I’d refer them to anyone in search of legal representation. Sincerely, Reginald East Hampton NY.

Knowledgeable, hard-working, proactive in short Excellent

I am a physician, till recently looking for my first house, which I just bought and moved in thanks to wonderful guidance provided by Mr Harvey Fox. Mr. Fox was recommended to me buy my realtor. It was a very good advice. From first day Mr. Fox made me very comfortable, advised me on the process,how... I'm going to approach to buy my house and explained each and every step in full detail. He was very approachable throughout the process and very prompt with his advises and replies on any questions I asked. He always replied back in the minimal possible time . He was always in touch with my bank and Realtor, was always working on my case in the background. During closing when we were running short of time he pressed on with everyone involved in the process and was able to get closing done on time. I am very satisfied with the service, his proactive approach and great knowledge to getting questions resolved immediately and taking the additional steps by looking forward in the process to ensure that all steps were taken care of. Very organized, incredible follow up, and perfect guidance regarding the process, financial aspects and coordinating with other people involved in the process. Highly recommended.

Dedicated and knowledgeable

I worked with Steve and Harvey on what turned out to be a long, complicated closing sale of my condo in Brooklyn. They managed all of the moving pieces and kept me feeling confident, informed, and well-positioned every step of the way. They fought hard at each hurdle, and in the end we closed with th...e deal I wanted, and I am very happy with the end result. Along the way, they provided guidance, advice, and information to help strategically make each decision. Both Harvey and Steve are excellent attorneys that will give you the attention and experience to help achieve great outcomes. I would be very happy to refer them and hope to work with them again in the future.

A valued member of your family's team

My family and my extended family have been using the Law Offices of Harvey Fox for over 15 years. We continue to make his office our first call when the need arises due to his consistent and effective management and resolution of our legal needs. Harvey quarterbacks the action when other attorneys... are passive, ineffective and sometimes adversarial. Our family has consulted with Harvey on real estate matters, trusts, last will and testaments, power of attorney, incorporation, corporate minutes, class action suits and other legal matters. The most recent case this past month included a tenant that was served a 30 day notice in a month-to-month tenancy and attempted to stall the process. Harvey handled the problem and the tenant was out on day twenty-seven. It could have gone sideways and dragged on but Harvey managed it professionally and effectively. Harvey is highly responsive, personable, decisive and an honest man. He will keep you focused on the goal without getting side tracked or letting emotions dictate the outcome. I highly recommend talking with Harvey and his team before deciding on representation. He will become a valued member of your family’s team.
