Testimonials

Steve Wekselblatt is the greatest lawyer. He is professional, compassionate, experienced, excellent negotiator and has a great sense of humour. I knew i was in excellent hands always, and he proactively kept me informed and gave the best counsel. He handled a few of my cases, the last one being the most difficult, with elegance and efficiency. I have recommended him to a few of my friends as well, and they were very happy with him too. He moves mountains single handedly. And most importantly, he has great values and a kind heart. If you want peace of mind, hire Steve .

In the process of partnering with Steve, we have learned that he becomes so much more than a real estate attorney, he becomes family. Steve has represented us on 3 homes and there’s no one who puts their client first in the way he does. The game of buying a home can be intense, overwhelming, and even scary as you put your life savings on the line - but with Steve at the helm, you can relax into knowing you are being taken care of from the start of the deal until you sell the house yourself. He is meticulous and detail-oriented and addresses so many little things that shore up the future. And somehow he manages to wow the other team - in every one of our deals, I could tell the other client wished that he was their attorney. And a word you may not hear often in this realm - Steve makes the process FUN. Thank you Steve for protecting our futures and becoming our treasured Friend. We adore you and are beyond grateful for your guidance. And while we don’t want to move again anytime soon, we look forward to hearing your voice regularly again!

"Steve is the lawyer/friend/advisor/confidante everyone needs! Steve was my lawyer as I navigated my way to the successful purchase of a new-construction condo in Manhattan. Not only was he there to give me his opinion on it in the early stages, he took charge, negotiated, and executed from start to finish in a little over 2 months! This is the 2nd property that I've entrusted to Steve, and I've recommended him to everyone I know - even if they aren't actually looking to buy real estate! He works tirelessly for his clients - I know he has my best interest in mind, and he thinks of all angles - even tracking down a contact with the City to ask about a tax abatement. I ask for his opinion on all kinds of topics - he's honest, thoughtful, analytical, and helps me think through ideas. Steve is family. I've never met anyone like him - above and beyond is an understatement!"

"My husband and I had the great pleasure of working with Steve on multiple transactions of the buy and sell of our primary home, in both Manhattan and an outer borough. Steve handles complicated negotiations and transactions with tact, professionalism, and effectiveness. During every transaction, we are so glad to have had Steve on our team. It took the pressure off to know that we were in his capable hands.  In addition to his sharp eye for detail and astute knowledge of the inner workings of the market, what has made us come back to Steve again and again is also his fun and engaging nature. He truly believes in the value of relationship and we never feel we are just in transaction with him."

"Over my twenty plus year as a mortgage broker and currently a mortgage banker with Wells Fargo I have had the opportunity to work with many real-estate attorneys.  I first met Attorney Wekselblatt about 4 years ago and had the pleasure to observe the way he worked with his client and the bank.  I can easily say that I have never seen an attorney who was more diligent both with his client and the bank then Attorney Wekselblatt.  He and I since that day have worked on many closings and all of our clients are extremely delighted with his work.  I trust that you as I did will put him on the top of your referral list when it comes to recommending the best real-estate attorney in town."

"I used Steve Wekselblatt during a very stressful time in my life for the back to back closings of both the house I was buying as well as the one I was selling during my divorce. Not only was Steve brilliant in his dealings with my home buyer (who was difficult and elusive), the real estate brokers, and the other attorneys involved, but he also was patient and understood completely the emotional side of what I personally was going through. Steve offered great advice and guidance at all times and any hour (literally) of the day. It was only because of his expertise and masterful handling of all the different "personalities " and legalities involved , that Steve single handedly SAVED both deals from falling apart.  Yes, both deals.
 It is because of Steve that we are in our beautiful new home today. 

Steve Wekselblatt understands the human and  emotional component of these delicate matters.  He deals sensitively and masterfully. 

Steve Wekselblatt goes over and above the call of duty when it comes to anticipating and meeting his clients needs. 

He is the best and ONLY attorney I would ever deal with in any real estate matter.  I highly, HIGHLY recommend him."

"We recently hired Steve for the closing of both the sale of our home and the new home we were purchasing. Steve made sure we were protected in every aspect. Prior to signing the contract, Steve thoroughly explained everything and guided us to make the right choices. He made the entire process from contract to closing, smooth and error free. Having Steve on your side of the deal is invaluable. Steve’s knowledge and experience made the process seamless. We would highly recommend Steve Wekselblatt to anyone who is selling or buying real estate. "

- Risa K., 2019

"Steve is an exceptional attorney and a warm, compassionate, easy person to deal with. We engaged him initially to sell our previous home and did so again two years later to purchase our current home. Steve’s an attorney who communicates timely and openly, pays careful attention to detail and prepares in a manner that serves the best interests of his clients leaving nothing to chance. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for a real estate lawyer."

"As my real estate attorney, Steve is always protecting my rights and providing quick and reliable feedback.  He continuously made himself available for any question during the process.  His emails were quick, concise and always guided me through the process.  He has represented me in 3 closings and represented a friend of mine in 2 closings.  NYC real estate is a tough process and he seems to have every angle covered.  Bottom line he always has my interest at heart and I consider him a critical part of the team."

“The Golden rule states,"Treat others as you would want to be treated."

And in this fast paced & hectic world it has become the exception rather than the norm.So much so,,that often times we just accept mediocrity from most people because they won't go the extra mile simply because they feel it serves them no extra benefit, but how misguided they really are,for if only they knew how much better they could make this world ,it would all come back to them ten-fold just by showing a little care,compassion,understanding & kindness.

My father used to similarly say...treat everyone with the same level of love, kindness, compassion & understanding whether rich or poor, mighty or weak because you may be all of those at different points in your life, so be grateful for all you blessings & humble in all your success' ...learn from your mistakes and teach others along the way, for not everyone knows what you know & learn from others along the way.

Clearly you get all of this because,When [we] met you... not only did we think you were an amazing, charming, hilarious guy but we were blown away by your level of enthusiasm, passion & quality in what you do & how you took the time to dissect & prepare what might have otherwise been just a boiler plate contract and modified it so as to protect us going forward and even better still...took the time to clearly explain everything line by line never assuming we should just know these things and blindly sign as I'm sure a lot of people sadly do.

What also left a lasting impression was even though we know we're small potatoes & this is just a simple closing to you....you made us feel like it was the most important thing for us (which for us it probably is) treating us no different than if your were sitting across a million dollar client working a mega deal......It does not get any better than that!!!

Thank you again for the outstanding service & better yet being a gracious human being & know that their are still some people out that that value goodness,quality & respect.....Not to mention smashing the stereo-type about lawyers...lol. God Bless & keep up the great work.”
