Proficient and professional

Tom handled both the sale of my first house and the purchase of my second. He was very knowledgeable, patient and precise. He made himself available to me anytime I needed him. The sale of my house was not an easy one and took 9 months to close as I had issues that had to be corrected with the town.... He helped with that as well and spoke with many people on my behalf. He kept my buyers up to date every step of the way to ensure a smooth closing. I highly recommend Tom for your real estate needs and I will also be hiring him to handle my will in the near future.

Amazing Lawyer

I have known Thomas McGovern since I was a child! In 2019, I lost both of my parents tragically. Tom, treated me as if I were his brother with empathy and care that could not be matched. His attention to detail is incredible. He helped probate both of my parents Wills, helped with the legal sale ...of my parents home, and offered countless pieces of legal advice. Both professionally and personally I recommend Tom for any job!

Thomas McGovern

We hired Tom McGovern to handle our real estate sale in Nassau County New York in October of 2020. He did a great job and navigated us through what became a difficult sale. Mostly timing issues but thats when you need an experienced attorney to represent you for the biggest sale/purchase of your life.... Mr McGovern kept everything on track and kept us well informed along the way. My wife Gail and I trusted Mr McGovern and gave him power of attorney for our sale in New York so we could close our purchase out of state on the same day. Everything went great.

Excellent, knowledgeable, excellent attorney

Mr McGovern was an amazing attorney. I used him for probate of an estate. His attention to detail and was timely in getting everything filed quickly. I have also used him for real estate transactions. Absolutely nothing negative to say. Everything went smooth with no hiccups! I will continue to... use him firm again and will recommend him to others. He takes pride to represent you where you feel comfortable with him representing you!

Great Attorney!

We hired Mr. McGovern for our real estate purchase. This was a complicated transaction seeing that the seller wasn’t available. Mr. M was very knowledgeable and professional and he made a complicated process very easy. I would absolutely hire him again and recommend him to anyone who looking for a r...eal estate attorney.
