He even reviewed the agreement and found something that needed amending, again, for FREE. If I ever have any kind of legal issue that this firm handles, I will come straight here to the best and kindest law firm in NYC. Thank you Joe!!!

I do not recommend using Pardalis & Nohavicka. P&N took too long to analyze my case. During this…read moretime there was a chain of emails sent back and forth. I paid them on 5/20/25 10,000 dollars. By 6/5/25 their team of lawyers failed to give me a proper analysis of my case. I asked for a refund. I had to pay over 5000.00 just for P&N to tell me that they still had not a full analysis of my case. The lawyer I spoke to was not even a real estate lawyer. I had to find another lawyer to take my case. This was an absolute waste of time, energy and money.

My husband has been working for over a year to move our family into a co-op. After being rejected…read moreby Queensview before even meeting with the board (a decision that completely caught us by surprise), we set our sights on Queensview North. Enter Elias into what was fast becoming a difficult and discouraging process. For the next few months, he not only guided us through the entire process each step of the way, but made himself available to us whenever we had any questions or concerns, no matter how minor. He always returned emails, texts, and phone calls promptly, never leaving my husband to work through yet another bump in the process on his own. Elias from the start came across as honest, dependable, and reliable, and never acted in a way to prove otherwise. He honestly seemed to care about our family and we felt like we had a solid ally on our side who wanted us to be able to purchase our forever home just as much as we did! Today we successfully closed on our new apartment and while the other lawyers involved preferred to work remotely, Elias insisted on being with us in person (his office follows all Covid safety protocols), as this was, in his words, a very important and special day for our family. In the cast of characters we have met during the long, stressful, often disappointing, and almost always frustrating process of buying into a co-op, Elias has been our favorite leading man! Put your trust in him, he will not let you down.

I am a tenant and I was served an eviction notice executed by Pappas & Pappas…read more 1) My name was spelled incorrectly on all paperwork. 2) When I appeared in court and asked the clerk for an extension, a later date was negotiated with the P&P attorney, the clerk, and myself. However, within days, P&P completely ignored that court negotiation and issued a NEW eviction notice with a completely different date and different Index Number! No explanation whatsoever. They did not communicate with the landlord (their client) what took place in court and now the landlord does not believe/is unaware of the negotiated date and claims the only court date is the one created solely by P&P. Let me say that again: Pappas & Pappas ignored the negotiated date made with the court, failed to communicate to their client, and issued a second court date to me, the tenant, with no explanation. This move is clearly an attempt to undermine the legal system and cause confusion, frustration, and burden to the tenant. Please be aware of this ethically compromised business.

Pappas & Pappas represent my landlord, MAL Realty Corp., and P&P is inefficient and often skew simple facts (they even misspelled their clients name!) P&P sent me a couple letters among them threatening eviction, but as advised by DHCR, their threats were unfounded and illegal. I was also advised by the City that Pappas represents several sketchy landlords on the Astoria area and many harassment cases against Astoria landlords who do not honor the law are represented by Pappas. Buyer beware.

You're going to get a good write up for that!…read more Glad I'm done with this joke of a law firm fake and phony management is what they are. Put to the hall of shame online if the exit is bad for a client don't expect them to come back. Not to mention they also changed attorneys on my file 4-5 times, "which they are known for at doing to their clients." Certified at manipulating transactional digits when it comes to legal services and court expenses. Which is why they deserve the nickname "Pat stacks- they pat the clients on the head meanwhile they stack your settlement checks into their escrow account to have CONTROL taking advantage by leaving the client with LESS and taking more of your earned money to benefit themselves." After that stunt you pulled you deserve this. "My screenshots below will show you how Tonino Sacco and his law firm act." Unkind, arrogant buffoon, selfish, not attentive, nor dependable, treats their clients like children. The nerve of him stating "the customer should be happy" you have a lot of audacity and boldness for saying that when you damn well your firm inflation the bill- put yourself in the clients shoes, you wouldn't be happy about that neither. "What's right is right let there be what's wrong is wrong." You should be embarrassed. I will show you better than I can tell you. They took a vacuum to my settlement they obtained from me, they made sure themselves were benefited by getting 38k and left me with a smaller amount. Spoke with Gladys Sigua their paralegal on Wednesday November 27th she called to go over the numbers. What got me is that she stated no attorney knows the price of what they charge for a breakdown of court expenses which is complete BULL! I had emailed them 3-5 times regarding this and they left me hanging and blowed me off so they could makeup numbers and transactions for court to benefit themselves- they added two court reporter fees and two mediation court fees- we only went to mediation once and that was on Sept 27th for 2 hrs the second court reporter fee I'm also disputing since I never was advised of a court reporter nor did I receive a transcript unlike I did for the disposition. Gladys don't insult people's intelligence your not my first rodeo retaining a law firm- I've hired at least 2-3 personal injury lawyers in NY and they've never ADDED so many multiple made up charges regarding court expenses and legal services nor did the others verify through Medicare/medicaid regarding outstanding liens- it's just your law firm because you look at ways to pay your client less money since you have some sort of agreement with Medicare/medcaid. Even the other personal injury lawyers I had hired in the past "the attorneys themselves knew how much the court expenses were and legal services amount to because they sent them to me not the paralegal." Also Michael Warycha lost a document I had gave them and contacted me back to re-send it. From the beginning of retaining this law firm to the end after a settlement was obtained HUGE MISTAKE staying with this firm- I don't think this is good way to finish a job with a client.

My wife and I used George and his law office to represent us in our home buying. Despite the trials…read moreand tribulations that comes with buying a home in NYC, George and his right-hand woman, Margaret, were INSTRUMENTAL in helping us close in a timely manner. Without giving too many details, suffice it to say that without their consistently clear communication, organization, and professionalism, our home buying experience would have been extended much longer (given how poor the seller's lawyers were in getting ANY of the things that they were required to do). To say they went ABOVE and BEYOND what should be expected for a lawyer is a significant understatement. I'll be recommending George (and Margaret) to anybody I know who requires a real estate lawyer.

I would highly recommend anyone looking to buy a home to use George as your real estate lawyer, you will not be disappointed!

The attorney said he was able to work on it even without the NJ bar. I was like okay since my case was very straight forward. After a month since we started the case, I haven't heard any progress and my ex was rushing me everyday. I decided to send Leon an email. After a few weeks past, I didn't hear back from him and then I called the office. The receptionist, who picked up my call, sounded clueless. She asked me to spell my name at least 5 times and I felt that she was very annoyed with my long last name. I asked her to let Leon know to reply my call or email. However, I never got the response. A week later, I decided to switch the attorney and then finally I heard back from Leon. And he added some statements in the drafted settlement document from the opponent attorney, which didn't apply anymore. It costed me almost $1000. I am very disappointed that a almost 5 star attorney on Yelp provided a 1 star service to me. The divorce process was already depressing and this didn't help at all. Please stay away from this place.
