Highly Recommended

I am an attorney practicing on the West coast, but also a member of the NY Bar. I had no prior contact with Mr Karhu, but he was recommended to my sister for a NY real estate transaction. I had the great pleasure of watching over my sister's shoulder, as he skillfully handled and closed a complex, so...mewhat contentious, multi-party transaction. I highly recommend him!

Adam Karhu represented us in the sale of our home and the purchase of our new home. He completely and clearly explained the process of both transactions from the start. It was very reassuring to know that we could easily communicate with him. Our questions and concerns were always addressed promptl...y. Our 2 closings went smoothly. Adam Karhu is professional, knowledgeable, and personablend.

When it gets tough... Adam Karhu gets tougher and gets it done!!!!!!

Adam was so on top of trying to get the buyer's bank of my house that was sold in Wantagh, NY to move along after a couple month's delay, making the calls, and emails days on end for weeks so I could buy my new home in NJ... and keeping me updated along the entire journey, giving me the utmost confid...ence and I knew I had a good one in Mr. Karhu! Do not hesitate if you need a Real Estate attorney! He is THE ONE!

Great Experience

Adam was very communicative throughout the entire process. His fees were very reasonable as well, and he never ran the clock for billing! Would highly reccomend

Knowledgeable and approachable

We used Adam's services to sell our property in HIcksville, NY and buy our new home in East Meadow, NY. Adam was very helpful and easy to work with. We had a few false starts; Adam was patient and guided us through the process. He was always one step ahead in checking things and pointing out the ...pitfalls. His guidance was accurate and made the process simpler for us. He always responded quickly to our questions and queries. I would gladly recommend Adam!

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Adam flawlessly handled a real estate closing for me. As a fellow attorney, I know that while legal expertise in relevant field of practice is extremely important (which Mr. Karhu defintiely has), customer service is equally important. Mr. Karhu excells at both. I recommend his services to NYS residents lookign for a great experience with their RE transactions."
