LoFaro & Reiser, LLP Reviews

Glenn Reiser handled a very difficult case that went on for 7 years. It finally ended in arbitration and we won the whole thing, thanks primarily to Glenn's dedication and persistence.

Glenn Reiser is the most ethical attorney I know, as well as one of the smartest. He has helped simplify complex issues on my behalf on several occasions, and is one of the few attorneys I would ever hire.

Outstanding legal representation. I am from Pennsylvania and have a brother who is a judge so I am very particular about my legal matters. Eric Reiser settled my contract dispute for 10 percent of the amount unfairly demanded. I interviewed several attorneys before choosing Eric Reiser and all said "Not to bother...just pay it." Eric was always available and kept me informed throughout the process at a very reasonable rate. I HIGHLY recommend LoFaro and Reiser.

The Michael Jordan of Lawyers! A Ridiculously Awesome Lawyer!

In August of this year my fiance and I decided that it's time for us to move out of Manhattan and get a place of our own in NJ. I found Carmine LoFaro online with 46 Five-Star reviews which is absolutely insane! Not one person gave him a review less than 5-Stars so I read the reviews to see what all the fuss was about and the overwhelming point that I read was "Carmine Takes Care of Business! I kid you not, from the first time that I spoke to him, I knew in my heart that he was the Lawyer that we needed to hire to oversee the purchase of our new house. It's the same feeling that I've had hundreds of times when the NY Jets had the lead in the 4th Quarter and I just knew that they were going to blow it!

During our first call, Carmine filled me in on the closing process, discussed everything that's going to happen from this point forward and was upfront with his fee. He dropped so much knowledge on me about the Real Estate closing process, this guy was undoubtedly a stud! He then said: "if you're interested, I'll send you the document to sign" to which I replied "absolutely"!

A few days later we made an offer on the property which was accepted but then entered the dreaded "Attorney Review Period" which lasts 3 days. It was Labor Day Friday (day 3 of Attorney Review) and we were nervous to see if we still had the place and I just figured that we'd hear back from Carmine on Tuesday because he mentioned to me that he was heading out of town for the weekend (a much deserved retreat I might add!). And then my phone rang on Friday evening and it blew my mind because not only was it a Holiday Weekend but he was away with his family and he still called me! Let me say that again: He was on a weekend getaway with his family on a Holiday Weekend and he called me to discuss our possible future house!! Who does that?! In this day and age of selfishness and Me-Me-Me, he's one of the last honorable men on the planet. I'll never forget what he said to me during that call: "why should the world stop just because I'm away?!". It was right out of the Jerry Maguire Movie as he had us at "Why"!

We wanted to purchase a duplex and our goal was to live in the first floor and rent out the 2nd floor. Closing was scheduled for October 27th but was backed up due to an issue between the tenant and the owner. Then it was backed up again and then backed up a 3rd time. Each time Carmine filled us in, replied to our e-mails in an incredibly timely manner and was the ultimate pro. Long story short, we pushed and pushed and finally closed on the duplex last Thursday (4 months later!) with Carmine by our side. Dude was a rock for 4 straight months and there was a point where I literally offered him more money because he was doing Sooooo Much extra work for us and he simply replied: "No, it's my job"! He knew all of the New Jersey Laws and requirements and patiently explained them to us throughout the 4 months. Also, he was Super Protective of us (his clients) and ensured that we weren't being taken advantage of by the seller and the seller's lawyer which they both tried to do!

But our favorite thing about working with Carmine Lofaro was that we never felt like a number. Every time that I called or e-mailed him, he always made us feel like we were his only clients. I kid you not, that's exactly how we felt the entire 4 months working with him! And that IS Priceless!

At the end of the day, we now own our home and a Huuuuuge thank you isn't enough because Carmine LoFaro is truly The Michael Jordan of Lawyers!

P.S. If anyone does read reviews like me and you're on the fence about which lawyer to hire, I have 4 words for you: Carmine is Your Guy!

Mic drop...!

Full Five Starts from this satisfied client! Carmine was a pleasure to work with. As my real estate attorney, he made the sale of my property what would have been a stressful process go smoothly without difficulty. He is a very knowledgable professional who works diligently and is very responsive.
He will go above and beyond to get things right from start to finish. I recommend him without any reservation.

Carmine LoFaro of LoFaro & Reiser represented us (the buyer) during the purchase of our first home. This daunting task of was made easy thanks to Carmine's help. He was a pleasure to work with; quick to answer emails and phone calls, timely with all replies, and thorough when answering our questions. He always looked out for our best interest, anticipated anything that could go wrong, and was extremely proactive every step of the way. Most importantly, he was kind, warm, and friendly. He was easy to talk to and really took care of us through this journey. If you need an attorney to represent you for a closing, I definitely recommend Carmine. I'm sure he will be just as attentive and caring with your case as he was for ours.

If you are looking for a lawyer that tells you as it is, then look no further. The results will astonish you. The firm will get the job done to your expectations.

Very happy to with Carmine's services! Went above and beyond for us when selling our previous home and during the purchase of the new one. Not only did he make sure we weren't being forced to pay fees we didn't owe, he went out of his way to save us money where possible. He fought for us against our buyer's attorney who attempted on several occasions to make us pay fees we weren't responsible for, and each time Carmine refused flat out to budge an inch. Will definitely use him again in the future and can't recommend him and his firm enough.

I was recommended to Glenn Reiser by another attorney. It was apparent to me immediately that he was intelligent, honest and well respected in a court system. He took an aggressive position from the beginning of my case and fought until our successful conclusion. Thank you Mr. Reiser... you are the best!!!

The last email I sent Carmine after we closed on my Co-Op...

"Hi Carmine,
This experience - I will never forget as it really supported Murphy's Law - down to the last minute.
Nonetheless I can't express how happy I am. This deal going through was a very, very big deal for me. It was the difference between a lifetime of struggle or immediate success and you will forever be a part of my story that was this journey.
To thank you for your assistance and proper execution of this purchase, especially the slack you picked up in Elena's absence ((my realtor who fell ill)) really doesn't do any justice to convey my appreciation and utmost gratitude. It was a pleasure working with you and I hope to work with you again in the future."

(thank you again Carmine...)

LoFaro & Reiser provide exceptional service. Upon careful review of my case details, they took the time to ensure my understanding of every part of their legal strategy. Glenn Reiser was Always fully prepared and on time for our court dates, I never had an inkling of doubt that I d be well taken care of. Because of their preparation, keen attention to detail and thorough understanding of the law, they won my case, as promised. Thank you Glenn Reiser for giving me back my life.

Glenn was very efficient and professional through out the entire process. He was very quick and responsive which helped us meet our deadline. Glenn made us feel very comfortable and listened to our questions and concerns and provided the best advise.

Even from across the country, LoFaro & Reiser are great to work with.

I worked with them while I lived in a completely different state from their offices - they're timeliness, professionalism, attention to detail, and dedication to the matter are a comfort, and an asset. In the years we've been working with them, their support has remained constant, and their drive and determination have been unwavering.

All of the incredible reviews were what initially led me to Carmine LoFaro, hoping to find my way out of a never-ending and messy Estate battle with greedy/estranged family members. I can now fully attest that he lives up to the hype 1000% and THEN some!

After our consultation, Carmine sped into action and it became abundantly clear that I had just retained quite possibly the best representation imaginable. Every call, every email, every single question, he kept me updated and explained everything so thoroughly, it felt as if I had an old friend who truly cared (and who was far more intelligent) now fighting in my corner.

Finding myself in what appeared to be a no-way-out and cut-my-losses type of situation, not only did Carmine ensure that I prevailed with zero losses, he went ten steps further and saw to it that I was awarded damages OVER and ABOVE the amount initially sought against me!

Intelligent, witty, professional and honest, coupled with his immense knowledge of the legal system, this is who you retain if you want to come out on top. No, seriously. Carmine is an phenomenal Attorney who is worth his weight in gold, and an even more compassionate human. I can t thank him enough!

We have relied on the team at Lofaro & Reiser for over 15 years. Glenn and his crew have always been excellent to work with. Prompt in responding, and detail oriented in reviewing everything from our contracts, to additional legal services. As a small business owner, we rely on the expertise of professionals to help guide us, and make sure we are doing things the right way. What I love about L&R is that they simply 'get us' and understand our challenges, and advocate for our interests. I credit them with always keeping us on the right path. You won't find a more ethical, hard working team to work for you.

While dealing with legal matters is seldom pleasant, I was delighted with the legal assistance that Glenn Reiser and his firm provided on a NJ real estate matter. LoFaro and Reiser are more than competent, they understand how the law gets applied, enabling them to anticipate rather than just react. Their rates are competitive and fair...they do NOT "nickel and dime" their clients. In all my dealings with them, I had the distinct impression that they measured their success by my success -- not by the amount of fees they billed.

I deal with many lawyers on a wide range of legal issues, and LoFaro & Reiser rank at the top for their professionalism, approachability, and fairness. I wholeheartedly recommend them. I am so pleased to have them on my side.

Mr. LoFaro represented me during the sale of my apartment. He was very professional, trustworthy, responsive and providing very clear guidance throughout the process. He has a great deal of experience and knowledge in the estate market. It was a real pleasure working with Mr. LoFaro and I highly recommend him.

Working with Carmine LoFaro on both the sale of my home and the purchase of my new home has been a pleasure. He communicates everything clearly, he is easily accessible, and looks out for his clients in every way possible. I cannot recommend him more and will use him again whenever I may need an attorney.

I was in need of a Tax Foreclosure attorney who specialized in this area of law. I was in the middle of a high pressure tax foreclosure case on my home. I contacted Glenn and met with him to discuss my case. Afterwards, he assured me that he could bring this frivolous case to an abrupt end which he did in the time frame he said it would take. We never saw the inside of a courtroom as Glenn had predicted as well. I was very happy to say the least on the outcome! Glenn's law firm was also VERY fair on pricing as well, and came in right at where he predicted it would be. Not a dime more! I would and will pass Glenn Reiser's name along to any of my friends, and acquaintances who are in need of a attorney with Glenn's background. He came through bigtime to save my home!

There is a reason these guys have the best reviews. We recently moved to NJ and had Carmine LoFaro represent us when purchasing our home. His professionalism, responsiveness, attention to detail, and knowlege made what is arguably a terrible experience a fabulous one. We felt as if we were Carmine's only clients -- if we had a question on the weekend he responded immediately. If we hadnt receieved a required document from the other counsel -- he reached out immediately. The night before our closing he personally went through each line of the contract to ensure we understood what we were going to be signing. He was an absolute pleasure to work with and makes me want to close on another house just to be able to work with him again! Last but not least, our closing was extremely drawn out and we ran into a lot of issues with the seller -- Carmine stayed by our side and guided us through the whole thing -- the fee charged was extremely fair for all the hardwork and effort he put in. Unbelieveble lawyer, unbelieveble character -- Carmine is a fabulous guy and we feel so lucky to have had him represent us. We will definitely use his services again if needed.

Having been in the Investigative business for 47 years , Carmine Lofaro is a top notch attorney to work for. He is an honest and reliable attorney who accomplishes his goals.

I endorse Glenn. He is an excellent attorney and has a deep understanding of litigation, foreclosure, and bankruptcy law. I have worked with him. He is very experienced and professional. My practice is limited to New York. Over the years, I have been asked by various people to assist them on NJ matters and I have referred clients to Glenn. Clients and other attorneys can trust that Glenn will provide terrific legal service.

Mr LoFaro helped guide me through a recent estate property sale. He offered advise and expertise through the first failed closing (buyer could not get timely financing), then through the second, actual closing.
He helped save the estate several thousand dollars, offered correct and timely advise on offers, details, etc. Also of interest, he offered upfront pricing, and did not raise it, even as the dealings became more complicated than anticipated.
I would suggest Carmine to anyone who needed an experienced, prompt and reachable attorney!

A lawyer friend recommended LoFaro & Reiser to me and I am extremely happy with the results and relationship. Glenn Reiser was very patient and always got back to me in answering any questions I had during the process. He showed up early for the court date and got me through everything with the judge in a professional, friendly way.

You will be pleased with LoFaro & Reiser so don't look any further! Their rates are very reasonable as well!

Carmine represented me in a complicated property transaction. He and his firm were really helpful throughout, taking time to explain the process, next steps and implications. His consistent clear and calm communication and practical and clear advice was perfect for ensuring what could have been a very stressful process progressed quickly and efficiently. Thank you Carmine!

Very professional and positive professionalism , trustful and characterized unique work. I will refer this place and specially carmine to everyone very highly standard of understanding and quality in any work case . Thank you LLC LoFaro. I m very happy and satisfied on all you have done..

Great experience working with Mr. LoFaro - brilliant lawyer who stands by honesty and right with passion, dedication, and professionalism. Strongly recommended.

Could not have been more satisfied! It was a pleasure being represented by Carmine, would most definitely recommend.

I can highly recommend Mr Glenn Reiser. He represented me over the last several years in a difficult, involved and protracted employment law matter.
Glenn was a staunch advocate of myself and my case and took a personal interest I seeing the case through to conclusion. He was well versed in the case matter (which was not run of the mill legal work) and worked with me to present the best possible case despite many obstacles.
He was prudent when I was rash and strident when I needed to be pushed forward. He welcomed and encouraged my input at all times and always came prepared.
I urge anybody who is contemplating resorting to legal procedure to retain good representation. If you are looking for representation please consider interviewing Mr Glenn Reiser to work with you. It is a wise investment.
Good luck.

Working with the LoFaro & Reiser team was a great experience. Very knowledgeable and easy to understand. Highly Recommended
