Hoyt stepped in when Iacovangelo decided not to show for our property closing. I found him to be snotty, arrogant, short-tempered and unethical. When I asked him what our closing fees were covering, he told me that one of the things he does is make sure there isn’t a lien on the property. I knew this... wasn’t true because our real estate agent has to make sure there isn’t a lien on the property before it’s even listed on the MLS. I also knew that the buyer can pay their own taxes with the Town and that buyers/sellers don’t have to pay an attorney to do this either. I guess all of my questions irritated him. If you’re a buyer/seller of residential property in New York State, Monroe County, you don’t need an attorney to buy or sell a home. But they will never tell you this. Based on my experience with this attorney, I can’t recommend him.

Kevin Hoyt, business lease guru

Kevin assisted us with obtaining a lease for our new office. He reviewed our proposed lease and was helpful in identifiing several key points to consider before we signed. He helped us to negotiate updating some specific terms regarding pricing, terms in case we outgrow our space and default consid...erations in our lease to be more favorable, but was also honest with us in keeping our own expectations reasonable for this market.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
