Abandoned us with no explanation halfway through after 1.5 long relationship

We utilized Jerome for almost a year and half for various real estate matters: contracts, property management agreements and then a dispute we had with a GC who took our money and abandoned the job. I approached Jerome about this matter in March of 23'. He gave me specific instructions on what to do ...and we followed his lead for two months. We had a phone call on 5/18 where we laid out a game plan for the next 30 days to approach the contractor about mediation/arbitration. The next week, I get these weird email form him basically saying that I hadn't provided clear information about our case. I call, email, text. Then a week and half later, without the decency of a phone call, he tells me won't represent us anymore. Mind you, Jerome had a "big case" the week before. It appears Jerome got overly busy and abandoned us halfway through the process without even the respect of a phone call or proper explanation. In my twelve and half years of being an entrepreneur this has only happen to me with contractors; never an attorney. What a guy!

A positive outcome

Our realtors recommended Jerome Geraghty to us and we would recommend him. After a recent townhouse purchase we found out that there was an upcoming assessment that was not disclosed during the sale. After he had enough information through e-mail exchanges with us and one phone call he wrote a dema...nd letter and through the seller's counsel an agreement was reached for a portion of the assessment to be paid to us. His honesty as to what the possible outcomes could be was appreciated. For our first experience in this type of situation it was all positive thanks to Jerome.

Great Advice when Dealing with Terrible Landlord

We were having major issues with our Landlord. They lied to us to get us into a lease. They agreed for us to move out early, we found them a new tenant, and we agreed on a move out date. They then asked us to move out even earlier, but also wanted us to pay double rent. Jerome worked diligently with... us to make sure we understood our full rights, and helped us construct all of our email communications with the landlord. We were eventually able to get the landlord to return all of our owed money, and are so thankful we could avoid the courtroom. We could not have handled this situation without Jerome, and were so thankful he was there for us.

Real Estate case

Jerome was open and honest form beginning to end of my case. I had a Real Estate transaction go sideways, and I did not feel I would see any profit from my Investment. After speaking to a couple of attorneys who turned me down, Jerome listened to me situation and found a way to get a positive resolu...tion. I would highly recommend using him for his services.

Professional and Responsive

We originally contacted J.R. for consultation regarding a dispute with a contractor and ultimately hired him because of the way he took time to review the facts of our case and his responsiveness to our follow up questions. Throughout the negotiations process with our contractor, J.R. kept us well in...formed, listened to our concerns, and provided valuable guidance to help us resolve the issue. In addition, he kept us informed as to the work he was doing on our behalf and communicated the expected hours he would be charging so that there were no surprises on our invoices. He is a very professional and knowledgeable attorney. Highly recommended.
