Excellent Communication

My wife and I needed an attorney to assist with selling our home. After a brief consultation with Michael, it was clear he knew the process thoroughly and had a team onboard to handle everything. From the moment we agreed to utilize his firms services we were never disappointed. Every step of the sale went smooth and above all, the best feature was the excellent communication so we knew what to expect the entire time. We were able to reach Michael or a member of his team whenever we needed to. Every email or message sent was answered promptly. My wife and I could not be happier with the services provided and would highly recommend Michael and his team at Ackerman Law.

Hire them!

"These guys are awesome. I started with a garden variety closing, which turned somewhat complicated as the seller tried to screw us. Mike and his team were awesome. 1) They never hit us with any extra fees. 2) Mike was tough as nails in playing hardball with the seller. I personally loved this aspect of it! Isn't this what you want from a lawyer? 3) They looked out for my best interests, and were organized and effective. 4) in dealing with other firms in the past, I always hated that when you called they had to look at your file, didn't have a working knowledge of your case, etc. This NEVER happened with Mike and Justin. I never had to rehash everything--they knew who we were, and what was going on. I loved this--this is totally a piece of mind that's value in incalculable. 5) For the price he charges, this was the best value I have seen in dealing with law firms. I highly recommend Mike and his team wholeheartedly. You can even message me if you want more details. Hire them!"

- Jim

Absolutely the best

"The team of Mike, Justin and Devon are professional and attentive in every aspect . We are fortunate to have them close on the purchase of our sons house, the sale of our home and now the purchase of our new home. We also recently highly recommended them to a family member. It’s a relief and a pleasure to have someone that you can always call and rely on to give you the best advise at a moments notice. Their experience and expertise were essential to handling some difficult issues that were raised. They walked us through each and every step and eased all of our fears and uncertainties."

- Chip

Thank you, Ackerman Law!

"Michael and his team were excellent throughout the home buying experience. As new homeowners, Michael walked us through the entire process, and took the time to meet with us to explain each aspect of the contract and closing documentation. Devon was excellent in providing updates and passing along the necessary paperwork that was required of us. My wife and I highly recommend Ackerman Law!"

"Michael's team is fantastic. They assisted me when I purchased my new home and the experience was flawless, so I worked with them to sell my co op.

Working with the Ackerman team, I could rest easy, knowing things were being handled professionally and timely. They are the best!"

First Time Homebuyer A+ Experience

Used Mike & his team for the purchase of my home in Melville. My Seller was a nightmare and there was a tenant (which involved negotiating the lease, as we wanted her out) It Wasn’t an easy deal but Mike always found a way to get it done, even when it seemed impossible! I was so impressed by his responsiveness and the fact either himself or his paralegal answered my questions after hours. I was a nervous first time homebuyer and after one conversation with Mike I knew I would be in good hands and protected. Thanks Mike and team for helping me purchase my dream home , could not have done it without you !

Highly Recommended - In A Class Of Their Own

As the Operations Manager/Transaction Coordinator for a top producing real estate team, I interact with numerous attorneys daily and can say without hesitation that Michael and his team are in an absolute class of their own. They are consistently organized and prepared, incredibly professional and have the best communication of any firm we work with. I am never left wondering where things stand on any of our deals, as I am updated on every last detail constantly and consistently. Michael has an uncanny ability to remain cool, calm and collected in even the most heated of negotiations/situations and keeps everyone laser focused on the end goal of a successful and seamless closing. He is patient and incredibly personable with all of our clients, and we always receive rave reviews when we recommend his team at Ackerman Law. From numerous personal experiences, I can definitively say that deals tend to go a lot smoother and quicker when they are representing our clients. I cannot say enough about Michael and his team - we are lucky (and grateful) to have them in our corner.

Satified client....

I recently enlisted Mike and his team to represent me for my home purchase. Throughout the process and contract negotiations, his team handling my case were informative , responsive and receptive to my requests. But the best part is they were courteous and made the entire experience personable. When you work with an attorney, even though you are paying for the service, you want to feel like they're your advocate and I felt that Mike and team (Justin & Devon) definitely were in mine.

Could Not be in Better Hands

We hired Michael based on a friends high recommendation and are glad we did. We were planing on being away for an extended period and signed a POA for Michael to represent us for the entire transaction. He handled the entire transaction from initial contract to closing, checking with us each step o the way. Not only was Michael the epitome of "The Professional Attorney" but his entire staff far exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend Michael and his firm.
