Real Estate Lawyer Review

I have used Jonathan 4 times. He is the only lawyer I will use for real estate. His best attribute is the ability to get his client through a tough situation. He clearly explains the problem, gives advice, and effectively manages the other lawyer and real estate agents to help close the deal. Respons...iveness is his next best attribute. Every email is responded to in a matter of minutes, paperwork is drawn up quickly, and he picks up every phone call.

Fantastic real estate lawyer

Jonathan was simply outstanding to work with during my recent condo purchase. He was extremely responsive and on top of things, and I especially appreciated his ability to roll with last-minute changes and delays that arose. I felt like I could trust him right from the start, and he served as a con...fidant and reliable advisor throughout the process. Most importantly, he got our deal done despite some headaches and hurdles thrown in our way. I'll definitely be using Jonathan next time, too!

Fantasitc real estate attorney

Jonathan was an excellent attorney during the process of buying our first home. He explained everything in simple terms, and even with a touch of humor. He was very timely and made sure we were on top of every deadline. Furthermore, he had our best interests in mind and good negotiator on our behalf.... We would recommend him to anyone! Oh, and our closing was a breeze because of him!

Highly experienced Real Estate Attorney who puts clients first

My wife and I purchased our first home and we're lucky to have Jonathan on our side; not only at the closing table but throughout the entire negotiation process. We were new to this process and Jonathan didn't make us feel like we were annoying with all our questions; he actually encouraged us to ask... as many questions as we wanted. His knowledge for all matters real estate is vast and most importantly, he made us feel comfortable. We enjoyed working with Jonathan so much my wife and I are going to utilize his services for our will.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

SUMMARY: Highly recommended law office and owner (Jonathan Aven), extremely reasonable pricing, high integrity and ethics, personal and outstanding service, someone who is working on your side giving 110% effort. I rate the service and experience with 5 stars. I used to always have negative impressio...ns of lawyers until I hired Jonathan to represent me with my condo purchase. I highly recommend Jonathan to ANYONE who is looking to work with one of the most professional and best people in the business, and I look forward to working with him in the future. I searched long and hard to find a good legal practice that had a specialization in real estate (specific to condo closings). After finding my top 10, Jonathan Aven’s law practice (and reviews) stood out as my top choice. I called Jonathan to inquire about his services; I received a call within 20 minutes. Jonathan was always available or would always return my calls within 12 hours. I had a confident feeling that he would give 110% of his time and effort to ensure that all my legal concerns and questions would be answered to my satisfaction and he ensured to get me to a win/win situation with my legal services. Understanding legal jargon is not an easy task but Jonathan’s ability to break it down into understandable terms really helped my understanding of legal requirements and made me appreciate the skill and knowledge. Jonathan did an amazing job of asking what I was seeking, clearly defined the expectations, and explained what was required from beginning until end. I felt like he was on my side the entire process and he did everything in his power to ensure that the deal was a great success. Jonathan helped me close on my condo in 35 days. I didn’t think that was even possible to today’s environment. He worked well with all the related parties and always has a positive and win/win attitude. Jonathan was on top of the process from beginning until end. Any time I called Jonathan he was always available or would return my calls in less than one day. He is always available on email and responds right away. I know that my deal closed so quickly and successfully because of Jonathan. His communication was outstanding, and weekly status updates reduced my stress and anxiety. Jonathan’s level of service far exceeded my expectations and blew my previous condo experience out of the water. Thanks for a job well done, Jonathan, and I look forward to your services in the future.
