Jonathan J. Somerstein, Esq, PC.

As a first time home buyer and terrified of the home buying process, I asked my realtor to put me in contact with his best attorney - he referred me to Jonathan. After getting an offer accepted, I sensed the weight of Jonathan's expertise during our first phone call and I knew he had my best interest in mind. Time was of the essence and Jonathan took time out of his Sunday evening to break down the sales contract paragraph by paragraph; he communicated legal language in an easy to understand format. I had to back out of my first contract due to failure to secure financing, but Jonathan ensured we were within reason to recover my earnest money. Second contract and 4 months later, Jonathan did an outstanding job at the closing table to ensure I understood every document I signed, and his expertise stood out when he communicated my best interest to the seller's attorney. All in all, I worked with Jonathan for approximately 6 months. Jonathan was extremely responsive and straightforward with everything we discussed. I knew he had my best interest in mind from day one - thank you, Jonathan!

Jonathan Somerstein has represented me and my wife in buying our home and handling a refinance. During both processes he was very patient with us and always answered all our questions. He is diligent and extremely knowledgeable and because of that I have also gone to him for advice on a family-owned commercial property in NYC. I would strongly recommend Jonathan to anyone because he is a great at what he does and is easy to work with.

Jonathan Sommerstein represented me in the purchasing of a house and again for the selling of a family apartment. He knows what he is talking about and is able to explain those things simply. At every point through our transactions I was left with the utmost in confidence that we were being well represented. Closings can involve a lot of things...its a really good feeling not having to worry about this aspect of the transaction.

Jonathan was recommended by a friend who had used him twice, and I am so glad we went with him! He is extremely knowledgable but also has the ability to explain very clearly what all the paperwork means. As a first time homebuyer the learning curve is steep, and his clarity and availability were so appreciated.

Our real estate agent recommended Mr. Somerstein to me and my wife and we are so glad that he did. Mr. Somerstein was extremely professional and clearly knowledgeable about the legal aspects during a home-buying process. When we first read the contract for buying a home, we were so confused. Mr. Somerstein explained it extremely well before we signed. During the actual closing, he again made sure we understood everything we signed. It was an enjoyable experience. We highly recommend Mr. Somerstein, and we definitely will refer him to any friends and family.
