Dorothy Ruth Tischler

I cannot believe there are so many other positive reviews as my experience was very similar to the first poster from 2013. We retained Dorothy at the recommendation of our realtor (also probably a mistake). She had terrible communication; perhaps responded to one of the emails I sent out of many; n...ever answered or returned phone calls; when our mortgage loan originator finally called her with us in office, when we were basically at the finish line of closing, she responded, "Oh yes, that name sounds familiar." We had significant concerns on our sale, including the fact that the sellers were refusing to fill out the Property Condition Disclosure Statement. Most of it wasn't a huge deal, but I wanted to know if there had ever been a fire. Lo and behold - there had. As evidenced by the char marks we found upon final walk-through that were previously covered up. There were also unsettled issues of who would pay for what, and she assured us it would get handled in the closing. Except when it came time for closing, she told us it couldn't be changed. The whole thing was a nightmare and she was so unplugged. Our mortgage originator was really who ran the entire home sale.

Today was the closing for the house where Dorothy Tischler represented my mother and me as the sellers. With out a doubt this one one of the worst experiences of my life. Dorthy did not even know I did not live in the house I was selling. I don't think she had read any of the paper work before ente...ring the room. She was unpleasant to work with from the very first phone call. Her partner Gus Gillberg represented the buyers. He went out of the way to be rude to me and my 79 year old mother. The staff was rude, the office not clean. Mr. Gillberg refused to even speak or look at us. Dorthy meanwhile seemed unaware that her partner was totally out of line. The guidelines say do not post insulting content. I can not think of a single aspect of this law firm that could not be construed as an insult. I will be calling the NYS bar in the morning.
