In the initial conversation, he explained all services they'd offer and an estimate of the costs. They worked with our lender very efficiently and kept us in the loop at all times. They were responsive in answering all questions in every step. Closing (which was mentioned as a stressful event by friends) was very smooth and stress free. Definitely recommend Ali and his team to anyone who's looking for real estate attorney services. We'll be working with them in the future again for sure.

He caught errors in the deed before closing and required the sellers to reissue it before we'd proceed. That's exactly what you want from a closing attorney: Straightforward, competent, responsive, and no surprises. I would absolutely use him again.

I found Vining via Yelp and decided to contact them regarding a very sticky tenant/landlord…read moresituation I had gotten embroiled in. (And couldn't be happier that i did) Ken laid everything out clearly and was enormously helpful in understanding the situation. He laid out his cost structures in a sensible way and his rates were very reasonable.

If you're having landlord/tenant problem and want someone to lay things out straight for you and solve tough problems, call up Vining, you'll be glad you did.

All sorts of problems arose due to construction delays, permitting issues and my bank not wanting to further extend my mortgage rate lock. Dave did a truly amazing job handling all of these issues and got the job done. He is smart, persistent, and very easy to work with. Plus, despite all of the issues that arose during this process, his very reasonable fee never increased. This is definitely the guy to hire if you are buying or selling real estate.

Jeff handled the closing for the purchase of my new house and the sale of my existing house…read more During the purchase closing, he discovered a major financing error by my lender that resulted in a significant savings for me. And when a title issue showed up during the sale of my existing home, Jeff went the extra mile to uncover the title insurance policy from when I purchased the property almost 20 years ago. This allowed the sale to proceed with no additional cost to me. It's rare that someone makes you feel like they're dropping everything they're doing just for you, but that's exactly what Jeff did. I cannot recommend him enough.

I found Jeff via yelp for our Newton home sale in the spring of 2018…read more Our situation was somewhat complicated, and Jeff never wavered in his patient and thorough approach. Even when things got stressful, or other parties in the transaction threw unexpected demands his way, Jeff was always very professional, turned work around very promptly, gave us candid and good advice, calmed us down when appropriate, and made himself available for what we needed. We wholeheartedly recommend Jeff - he made our somewhat (ahem) "adventurous" home sale as smooth as possible. We wish we did more frequent real estate transactions so that we could work with Jeff more often!

My problems with a terrible landlord had remained unresolved for nearly 3 years until I finally…read moredecided to look for professional help, and I had a great head start in my search for the right lawyer through the word of mouth since multiple people I knew and trust had nothing but positive things to say about Mr. Ayr. It turns out, not only I found the right lawyer: I found the perfect lawyer! You might be asking: "Why do you say that?".. Because not only he is extremely effective, time efficient and organized - which will save you a ton of money - but also is very down to earth, realistic and has something else I've never seen in any lawyer: the cool factor. When I say cool, I mean the invaluable ability to remain calm, centered, so balanced in every situation that it's almost Zen. Remember all the bad things we all grew up listening about lawyers? You will soon realize that Mr. Ayr is the perfect antagonist of all that, and I'm not just saying that, I will elaborate and give you my personal experience as an example: My landlord years of serious violations and illegal acts were so bad that, if we decided to bring the full case to court, he could easily go bankrupt and the house would go up to foreclosure, and bear in mind, I had the Boston Housing Court and Boston Housing Inspection Services with me in this case. Needless to say, had we gone ahead and sue it, serious compensation would come my way and my lawyers. Yet, when I decided to "let go" and give the landlord a chance to settle for the security deposit legally owned to me plus my financial damages along the way , Mr. Ayr fully supported me and quickly started and finished all the documentation and negotiations with the landlord, who completely changed from the very aggressive tone to a fast paced resolution. I was in awe. I would give Mr Ayr a 6 star review if it was possible.
