Knowledgeable, thorough, and caring

I sold my house recently and Mr. Harvey Fox was recommended to me by a cousin who had just sold her father's home. When I first called Mr. Fox, we were on the phone for over 45 minutes, going over my home's history and detail, and this was before he even agreed to take my case. Mr. Fox provided thi...s "real estate-challenged" lady with so much information and guidance! He helped get me over a few unexpected snags and was always patient and thorough. He personally was in constant contact with me and always returned my calls/emails in a timely fashion. I would highly recommend Harvey Fox to my family and friends without hesitation.

Acquisition and Closing of Two Properties

Harvey and Steve have been our real estate attorneys for close to a decade. We recently sold our second property with Harvey's team. Harvey always responds to all of our concerns with the utmost ethical and reasonable way. We never end a conversation perplexed (because some attorneys definitely make ...you scratch your head after consultations). But rather fully understanding the pictures of the situations happening now, situations that may have happened and situations that may happen. He ensures your judgements are in your best interest. We are grateful to have Harvey behind our real estate dealings.

Exceptional

Harvey and Steve were absolutely exceptional. They represented me for both my apartment sale and townhouse purchase. Very responsive to all my concerns; e-mails were answered almost immediately. Both closings went extremely smoothly. I am very grateful to have used these caring, professional attorne...ys.

SIMPLY THE BEST

Having spent most of my life in Show Business and also having grown up around and dabbled in my family’s business of Real Estate, I’ve certainly had my share of dealings with attorneys. I’ve gone back and forth with Entertainment attorneys, engaged with Copywrite attorneys, and sometimes even battle...d with Buyer’s and Seller’s attorneys during real estate transactions. Some of these folks were up to par, some of them absolutely dismal. Harvey Fox, however, is simply the best attorney I have ever had the pleasure of working with. To give you a bit of background, Harvey represented me with the sale of my home in East Hampton during the Covid 19 pandemic. Selling a home under the usual duress is stressful enough, but selling during a global pandemic when “under the gun” to get things lined up for new surveys and a new Certificate of Occupancy is like trying to thread a needle with your eyes closed. Harvey was with me every step of the way during this incredibly stressful time answering every question and assuaging every fear. That he is a brilliant attorney goes without saying, but Harvey Fox goes much further than that. Harvey thinks “out of the box”. There was never a second during this extremely difficult sale that I had one iota of doubt that Harvey “had my back”. He is a gem of a man, an extraordinarily talented lawyer, and a caring human being. This combination is golden when seeking the very best representation and I can’t recommend Harvey Fox highly enough. He will always be my “go to” attorney and, when we’ve found a way out of this pandemic, I am very much looking forward to thanking him in person.

Experienced, Conscientious, Reliable and Personable.

The first time we engaged Harvey and Steve in a real estate transaction was back in 2012. Since then, we have completed another 2 transactions and successfully recommended them to some of our closest friends. We are all amazed and extremely grateful for their expertise, professionalism, honesty and h...ard work and there is so much more compliments we can add to this review but the key factor that makes us keep going back to them year after year for any legal advise, is that they are very personable people that truly care and have their clients' best interest in mind. We don't usually make recommendations but when it come to Harvey and Steve, we have zero hesitation because we know that no matter if you are a first time or long time client, they will treat you and your matter with the utmost attention and dedication. We highly recommend them and to be honest, you are helping yourself to better protect your rights and assets by seeking their advise.
