This past Sunday night I was faced with a very concerning and unexpected legal problem. Unsure of what to do, I went on search engines to seek an attorney in my area. The law firm of Azoulay Weiss LLP immediately came up, as well as several other law firms. I took the liberty of sending emails to all three firms. Much to my surprise, Edward, partner at Azoulay Weiss LLP responded within minutes on a Sunday night, where does that happen in real life?. We communicated back and forth for a while, and he gave me invaluable advice. In addition, he suggested that if I have more questions, I should feel free to call him the next morning. The following day, I did have questions and I reached out to him. Not only did he take my phone call, but added to the invaluable information he gave me previously. In addition  he answered some new questions and addressed my fears and concerns. When I told him I would like to retain his services, he told me that he would not feel comfortable taking my money at this point, and that I really didn't need to do that. He made it clear that he was not in it for the money but rather to try to help me. We are in some very tough times and a helping hand is more important than ever. Edward and his firm exemplified something you only hear about in a fairytale. He continues to help me with my current situation, and whether I retain him for this or something in the future, I will definitely utilize his services. I cannot imagine anyone choosing a law firm without contacting Edward at Azoulay Weiss, LLP first, it will be the best decision anyone can make. read more

Thanks to Edward Weiss and his team at Azoulay Weiss, I was able to get my tenant issue resolved, and in my favor. People might say they are a bit pricey, but as the saying goes, you get what you pay for. My problem started back in 2022 when my tenants stopped paying rent. Edward was referred to me as a very good lawyer. I called him without hesitation, left him a voicemail, and he called me back shortly. We discussed what was happening and my expectations. Edward, being a straight shooter, told me exactly timelines, and what to and not to expect. The Azoulay Weiss firm always kept me updated as to any and all changes that occurred with my cases. Fast forward to 2024 - the snail's pace is due to the NYC court system - and they were able to get the case settled. Surprisingly, it was done so with me getting all the back rent that was owed. I was present at all but one of the hearings, and I must say, I saw each of the lawyers​ who represented me fight like crazy for me. Despite knowing that they have multiple cases taking care of at any given time, they surely made me feel as though I was their only client. This within itself speaks volumes about their characters. I highly recommend using this law firm for any of your​ landlord/tenant disputes. They are worth every penny. Without a doubt, I would definitely use them again. Should I encounter such an issue again - hopefully not - Azoulay Weiss will be the only law firm I will use to represent me. They have my business for life! read more

I was in a very difficult, sensitive and emotional situation. I postponed this action for over ten years. Finally, I had no choice. I was referred to a lawyer who, after he heard my story, indicated that he was not the one. If if I really wanted to get this eviction done, Azoulay Weiss was who I should call. My attorney, Ted Weiss, was very considerate of the situation and my reasons for my having to evict . More important, he understood that this was very emotional for me. He was crystal clear on what was to happen and explained every action necessary. He answered my calls, responded to emails and texts. The Azoulay Weiss staff is courteous, thorough, and were flawless in their execution of required documents. The attorneys involved and Counsel Weiss came up with a novel idea for eviction. The eviction went smoothly. Though I shed some tears over the situation, Counsel Weiss offered advice and a perspective that helped me get through this trying time.

Teddy Weiss helped us conceive, motivate, codify, and execute an early exit agreement for some tenants who were having difficulties fulfilling our lease. His emphasis was consistently focused on practical approaches and solutions, taking into account the local legal realities -- in this case arriving at a collaborative agreement with our tenants, good for all parties, so as to avoid getting bogged down in a backlogged court system. This approach worked well, giving us all a clear roadmap to follow.
