Super knowledgeable Super helpful

Jay was great at helping me navigate my case and demonstrated a sharpness in balancing the law with practical solutions. Can’t recommend him enough!

Posted by Bharath | September 18, 2022 | Hired Attorney | Landlord & Tenant

Received a nice settlement

Jay is an absolutely adept attorney and we could not have been happier with his counsel. We hired Jay to represent us in a dispute with our landlord where we felt like we were being taken advantage and wrongfully being blamed for issues that were not our doing. From a simple first email and phone con...versation, Jay clearly understood that there was no legal basis for our landlord’s claims. Jay went above and beyond and handled all tough conversations with the landlord and his representative patiently. He kept us informed of the progress constantly, advocated for our mental well-being, de-stressed the situation for us, and never wavered from doing the absolute best for us. His advise helped us get out of a toxic living situation into a better place. Finally, when the landlord insisted to withhold all our security deposit to pay for damages we did not cause and other irrelevant things, Jay filed a motion in court to get us what we rightfully deserved. He stood up to the landlord’s attorneys and made them realize that there was no legal bases for all their claims. In the end, we got a vert nice settlement that made up for all the troubles. Without Jay on our side, we would have undergone a lot more mental anguish and our Landlord would have forced us to pay for things we were not responsible. We highly recommend Jay to anybody out there seeking a advocate who stands for a client’s best interests. Thank you Jay!

Excellent Lawyer

Mr. Mukerji handled all the details of my case despite different complications in the process beyond both our control. He was easy to get a hold of, and has been incredibly helpful in explaining the system during the whole process - and he should have charged me far more than he did!

Outstanding Legal Support for My Small Business

Mr. Mukerji provides sound legal advice and professional services in support of my employment business for very reasonable rates. His guidance, calm demeanor and level headed approach recently helped to avoid escalation of a difficult situation with a former employee. Jay is professional and respon...sive and has the knowledge to help any small or mid-sized business with their legal needs.

Wonderful attorney to work with.

Jay was easy to work with and helped me through my issues quickly and efficiently. Communication was easy and effective--Jay would answer any questions I had, whether they be in person, over the phone or by email. He knew exactly how to help, assured me of legal rights, and put me in a position of co...nfidence. I would highly recommend Jay for any landlord/tenant legal issues!

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.
