Highly recommend Irene Stein for real estate transactions

I had an excellent experience working with Irene Stein on the purchase of our co-op apartment. She is professional, responsive, and extremely knowledgeable. Irene clearly explained every step of the process, answered all of our questions, and handled all the details efficiently. The co-op purchase pr...ocess can be complicated, but Irene made it feel manageable and stress-free. Her attention to detail and guidance gave us confidence throughout the transaction. I would highly recommend Irene Stein to anyone looking for a reliable and experienced real estate attorney.

A Great lawyer for a complicated Co-op transaction

I am very grateful to Irene Stein for helping me sell our apartment in an unusually difficult co-op transaction. The case involved many people, a complicated closing, and a lot of stressful communication, but she handled everything with skill, persistence, and professionalism. She was attentive to de...tails, calm under pressure, and always worked to move the process forward. I do not think this deal would have closed as smoothly without her help. I highly recommend Irene!!

Miracle worker

Irene Stein is a miracle worker, plain and simple. Selling an apartment is stressful under the best of circumstances, but our situation was an absolute minefield. We were facing the double-headed monster of a rental unit with holdover tenants who refused to vacate and active foreclosure proceeding...s. It felt like an impossible situation, but Irene stepped in as our real estate attorney and handled it with a level of grace, abundance, and expertise that is rare to find. Instead of focusing on the scarcity or the conflict of the situation, Irene navigated the complexities of the tenancy and the legal hurdles with a calm, proactive energy. She didn't just manage the legalities; she added value at every turn, transforming a high-pressure confrontation into a successful closing. Her ability to coordinate between difficult parties while keeping the process moving forward was nothing short of masterful. If you are looking for an attorney who can handle the "impossible" while remaining an absolute pleasure to work with, look no further than Irene Stein. She doesn't just practice law; she solves life’s most stressful problems. We are incredibly grateful for her brilliance.

Your trusted attorney!

We had a great experience working with Irene during our home purchase. She is extremely knowledgeable, detail-oriented, and made sure we understood every step of the process. She explained complex legal matters in a simple way and was always responsive, thorough in reviewing documents, and proactive ...in protecting my interests. I felt confident and supported throughout the entire process and would highly recommend her to anyone buying a home.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Irine Stein and I have worked on several real estate closings and contract negotiations together.. Ms. Stein is very knowledgeable in this area, her staff is extremely efficient. Every transaction that I have had with Ms. Stein has gone smoothly and she went above and beyond in clarifying last minute glitches with mortgage banks and title companies. I often refer my own clients to her for transactions that require expeditious handling and often request that the banks assign her to my real estate closings as I know everything will go smoothly.."
