We at first hired a different law firm to fix a zoning issue we had with a rental property, but after several months we had gotten nowhere. As soon as we hired Nochumson, they went to work and knew exactly how to fix it. We worked primarily with Alex, who was always very quick to respond and got us through the issue efficiently and thoughtfully. We ended up hiring them for two permitting issues as well, and these also went perfectly. read more

Awful experience truly... I would recommend going to Gail instead. She'll talk to you and provide feedback before requesting for money. I'm not sure how they have so many great reviews because they are awful at communication until they get called out. They billed us .20 (I believe this is 20 minutes) for an email that simply said "that's very good news keep us posted" after the other condo owner and I figured out our issue ourselves. We hired this law firm to represent us for an issue that occurred Jan 2024. Alan spoke to us briefly over the phone and was great- he made it sound like an easy solution and we just had to pay him 5k retainer. We never spoke to Alan again and he passed us to Natalie & team. We provided them updates about our situation and instead of providing any solutions we were given a large bill of absolute bs. They never reached out to the person we were having issues with. And they danced around the injunction they were supposed to file. After speaking with Gail we found out it would be very experience to peruse that route. Got it. So we each wasted ~ $1,500 We contacted them to cancel our service and refund the remainder of our money. I emailed to share my dissatisfaction of the firm but instead just received a long email about how great they thought they did. Their office admin contacted us on April 19 and we were told we should receive a check in the mail. Nothing.... it's been a month and we haven't heard anything. Do yourself a favor and find a different firm. Can't believe they took advantage.. first time home buyers getting screwed by lawyers they hired lol read more

I had a very positive experience working with Alan. We were having a zoning related issue with a developer that we felt would negatively affect our home and quality of life. Mr. Nochumson clearly has vast experience working on behalf of developers, and was able to use that experience to bring our case to a solution that we could live with. Throughout the process, Alan and office kept us informed and advised us well on our options. I've always had a low opinion of lawyers and their billing practices, but Mr. Nochumson was very fair and forthright with us. He's a good guy. I would highly recommend this firm. read more

Working with Alan on our first home purchase was great. He really took the time to go over each step with us including when we were making our offer, going over seller disclosures as well as warranty issues. He was always reachable via email or phone. Response time was quick. He also came to our closing and went thru each page explaining what we were signing. I recommend Alan on real estate transactions without hesitation. read more

Alan is an amazing attorney and you cannot go wrong having him on your side. As an attorney myself, I was extremely pleased with his responsiveness and advocacy on my behalf on what became a complicated land purchase. read more

Mr Nochumson has been an excellent attorney and he always puts his clients first. I appreciate his services and would definitely recommend him to future clients. He helped me explain everything regarding real estate and was an excellent asset. read more

Working with Alan and Natalie has been wonderful. They are extremely competent and were very witty and diligent as they successfully defended my company against an adjoinder claim. Great work, and I highly recommend them! read more

Alan is a premier attorney when it comes to Real Estate law in Philly and the 'burbs. Have no fear, you have a fighter in your corner.

Mr. Alan Nochumson helped me with obtaining a zoning variance for a commercial property situated very close to a residential neighborhood. Where another obscenely expensive law firm failed, he succeeded! His deep understanding of the field, the people, and the law was very impressive, and to top it off he was a nice person and easy to work with. I was left with the feeling that he takes pride in doing good work and knowing his stuff and that he cares about all the little details that, when added up, can make a huge difference. I would happily recommend Nochumson P.C. without hesitation. read more

If it was possible to give Alan 6 stars out of 5, I would! Alan was great to work with and represented us as a real estate attorney. From the moment we found him on Yelp, his response time was immediate. Overall, Alan is quick to respond, thorough, and patient. Whether it is through a call or emails, he's easy to a get a hold of especially when we had questions that needed to be answered in a timely manner. He was able to walk us through the process ensuring we had everything covered along the way. We kept him looped in throughout the process with the real estate agent, so whenever we spoke with him he was already up to date on the material. During close, he walked us through each and every single page of the contract. It was so helpful to have him translate all of the legal and complicated terms into plain English! Additionally, there was some paper work that was missing and some language that needed to be clarified in the contract that he corrected/asked for. High attention to detail and knows the process well. Again, nothing but good things to be said. It was an absolute pleasure working with him and I will absolutely go back to him for other topics. I highly recommend if you are looking for a real estate agent to have Alan represent you! read more

My husband and I are new to Philly and found ourselves in need of a real estate attorney rather quickly. I found Alan Nochumson because of his great online reviews and Alan did not disappoint! Alan answered his phone personally the first time I called his office and while very busy was able to help navigate us through a time-sensitive real estate transaction that day. Alan's availability (on such short notice), attention to detail, and candid approach to our real estate deal was very appreciated. While we didn't move forward with this real estate transaction, we look forward to closing on a home with Alan in the future! read more

Working with Alan was great! He was on top of any problems that came up and was quick to respond. He kept everything moving and the closing process was smooth. I would highly recommend him! read more

My partner and I were first time home buyers and were deceived by the previous owners of our house. The previous owners completed a master bathroom renovation a few months before selling us the house. The bathroom renovation was performed without permits from the township and did not receive any inspections. The sellers deceivingly indicated in the sales contract that permits were obtained and the township deferred inspection. We also we had an inspection performed prior to purchasing the home that did not detect the defects. The bathroom construction defects allowed water from the bathtub to permeate through and leak out of the kitchen ceiling below it. This left the bathroom unusable and was going to cost $8,200 to re-mediate. So I filed a suit against the previous owners in Delaware County small claims court. I contacted Alan through a friend of mine that is a realtor in Center City. My realtor friend highly recommended Alan. Alan took the case and made short work of it. Alan was extremely knowledgeable of PA law, real estate law and court procedure. He was very professional, prompt, kind and managed expectations very well. Alan was very reasonable in his fees compared to some of the other attorneys I had contacted. All of this was important to my partner and I as we have never filed a law suit or been part of any sort of legal matter. Alan won our case for us and we collected $6200. We used the awarded judgement plus some of our own funds to redo the master bath and return it to a functional state. Alan also represented us a few months later in a bogus loan claim with a former acquaintance. The plaintiff's case was without merit and never made it to trial. Alan was ready and had a legal strategy that would have easily won our case. We are very pleased with Alan and he will be our first call if another legal matter should arise. I highly recommend Alan. read more

I would highly recommend Alan for real estate transactions. He is fair, thorough, responsive and gets things done in a very "21st century" way: e.g., given our tight timeline, was willing to meet on a Sunday to review the transaction and strategize about our offer. He was a true partner, as he vigorously negotiated a residential land purchase on our behalf and saw the transaction to completion. Alan operates with a strong sense of professionalism and at the same time is "real" and personable. I immediately felt that I could trust him and would most definitely work with him again should the opportunity arise. read more

Alan handled the sale of my property with poise and great expertise. He is highly responsive, knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with. As a lawyer myself, I know the value of client service and would recommend him to anyone who has a real estate matter. He provides wise counsel, remains calm under pressure, and is very reasonable. read more

Alan is an excellent attorney, a true professional. He provides great service and solves issues quickly. He did an excellent job representing me and my fiance with the purchase of our first home. I would highly recommend Alan for any real estate matter where you want a fair legal outcome. read more

We originally were referred to Alan Nochumson for a Private Equity Real Estate investment transaction. We did several deals together and recently completed a large commercial lease/business transaction. Although the latter took a long time on the Landlord side and with many hurdles, Alan navigated efficiently and professionally over these obstacles, and persisted to the very end with a successful conclusion. The best review/advice that I could ever provide is that Alan has earned all our business now and in the future and I would refer him to any family, friends or business associates without any hesitation. read more

Alan made the process of buying a condo about 100x easier--worth every penny! Early on, I could tell that Alan was acting in my best interest because he gave me advice that made more work for himself. When settlement happened during his vacation, he stayed in email and phone touch. On the day of settlement, which did not go smoothly, we spoke several times throughout the day, and he also called, on my behalf, several other people. He also sent an associate to settlement so somebody could be there in person, even though he had been working throughout the day on my behalf. I was very glad my realtor recommended him. read more

Alan is the man! Working with him was truly a pleasure. He is very knowledgeable and professional individual. He goes beyond and above for his clients. He delivered very smooth and seamless transaction and stellar experience. Thank you Alan for representing me in my case and winning! read more

Alan Nochumson is just the lawyer you want on your side - when dealing with this property tax mess that Philly has created. Not only has Philly been extra-loving to homeowners by increasing the property taxes, they are not following the recently instituted law regarding appeals and confusing mortgage companies into paying higher taxes which rebounds as a higher monthly mortgage payment - leading to a confused harassed homeowner. It would have been no different for me, except that I had excellent legal counsel in the form of Alan Nochumson. Thanks to Alan, I appealed on time, got to maintain my taxes till the appeal is heard and basically gained breathing space and peace of mind while the city gets their act together. There are just so many nuances to this situation; and I realized the difference it makes to have a knowledgeable, efficient and pro-active lawyer like Alan (and his firm) on your side. If you find yourself in the same situation, I would highly recommend seeking Alan's honest, effective and efficient legal help. read more
