3 purchases, 3 great experiences

Currently I have used Amy for my last 3 purchases. Aside from that speaking volumes, she has always been kind, courteous, and willing to take time to make sure I understand every detail. She has always been willing to go above and beyond the standard responsibilities of a closing attorney to make su...re I have everything I need to successfully close on a house. She has always protected my interests and steered me away from potential conflict. Highly recommended!!!!

Real Estate Attorney for House Closing

Amy Berkowitz-Ortiz was amazing to work with for our house closing. She worked on our contract which was not your typical contract due to personal financial issues that needed to be delicately handled in the contract. She ironed it out to work perfectly for us with the sellers attorney. We had a ...very difficult real estate agent that we had to deal with on the sellers end. She handled all of the communication once the agent starting calling us and texting us daily with demands that were not her decision to make or contact us with. Our mortgage was not a straight forward situation and she made sure the legal end with the sellers worked best for our needs. Our closing went smoothly without any surprises or hitches due to her expertise. She was always easy to get in contact with when ever we had a question, concern or issue. She was very responsive and always called us back or emailed us within a very timely manner. We highly recommend Amy, and will definitely use her again!

Efficient, dedicated and persistent

Amy Berkowitz-Ortiz stepped in as our real estate attorney. Our seller was also an attorney and was making the process extremely difficult. She was clear, persistent and efficient in all areas. Eventually, we even had to sign over power of attorney on Christmas Eve to avoid penalties. She quickly ans...wered every question, was flexible and made it happen for us. Day of closing, she was meticulous during the meeting and kept in constant contact which allowed us to feel comfortable and confident. I highly recommend her as a lawyer. She will be honest, non-biased and no nonsense when needed.

Amy gave me confidence to deal with my fears

Amy Berkowitz-Ortiz handled my Chapter 13 filing with great proficiency and expertise. Filing for bankruptcy has to be a low point in anyone's life, and Amy addressed the various obstacles in this process in a way that made me feel confident I was getting my life back on the right track. She is court...eous, attentive, and most of all, patient. This can be a complicated legal matter, and I was concerned that my lack of understanding in completing some of the required tasks would exercise her patience and then some. She was excellent at explaining the complexities of filing bankruptcy in a clear way. Amy is still very attentive to my needs, very responsive with my emails, and a very compassionate person. Amy Berkowitz-Ortiz from day one treated me with respect, shared her knowledge of the law, offered excellent advice and above all, operated with complete integrity. She was available to answer all my questions, and allay my concerns with significant promptness. Amy tirelessly defended my interests and provided me with all the resources and advice necessary to make an informed decision. I cannot recommend her enough.
