EXTRAORDINARY

Quite simply...the absolute BEST attorney I have ever dealt with (and I've had quite a few!). This man not only knows his stuff, but knows how to get it done, at record pace, with no small talk, wasted time, or nonsense. Worth every single penny and more. Responsive, dependable, respectful (as in, no... BS!), and cost-effective. If you have a real estate issue, this is THE man.

Wonderful Human and Attorney

Lee was there when my family needed him the most and really saved our backs. We were in a very vulnerable position and had we not had Lee, our family would have been in trouble. I am forever grateful and wholeheartedly recommend him for your legal needs.

Highly informative and speaker

Gave an excellent talk at a recent HALO (Hazleton Area Landlords Organization) meeting on real estate agreements of sale. Very detailed and knowledgeable. His handout was very comprehensive.

Tenant Collections

I belong to an investor group Delco Property Investors, where Lee is president of the group. His presentation this evening was so helpful to many investors. He hed a group of 60 attentive for 2.5 hours on tenant collections. One thing for sure, if have a need Lee will be the man I will call.

Outstanding, Highly Skilled, and Highly Effective Real Estate Attorney

Lee is an outstanding attorney who gives 100 percent to his client's case I knew he was good before I hired him, but his actual performance greatly exceeded my expectations. His assistance in a real estate eviction matter was invaluable. He was able to persuade the tenants to leave the property w...ithout the need to go to court. This saved me both time and money. He also skillfully served as my agent in the eviction process. This also saved me a lot of (unpleasant work) in getting the tenants to peacefully leave. Due to his extensive contacts, Lee was able to find buyer for the house who paid me considerably more than I thought possible. Lee has a personality which fosters good communication between attorney and client. He is easy to work with. If you want a hard working real estate attorney to best represent your legal interests and secure the desired results make sure you hire him!

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.
