Review of the Law Office of Susana Gutierrez Manna, LLC Law Office of Susana Gutierrez Manna,  LLC 277 Closter Dock Road, 2nd Floor, Suite 5 Closter, NJ 07624 T 201-750-7564 F 201-750-6919 MannaLaw@MannaLaw.net My teenage son and I came to know real estate attorney Susana Gutierrez Manna, LLC, through our wonderful realtor, Liza Rogala, and they worked together like a dream team in enabling us to sell our 2 bedroom and 2 bathroom apartment in the cooperative building known as Mediterranean North, in Fort Lee, NJ, in 2024. For those of you who are unfamiliar with selling an apartment in a cooperative apartment building complex, it a very complicated, time-consuming, bureaucratic as well as frustrating process with the need for sellers and buyers as well as their realtors and real estate attorneys and movers etc. to comply with archaic and seemingly-endless not to mention illogical rules and regulations. It can be nerve-wracking and infuriating at times for sellers and buyers and the teams of people assisting those sellers and buyers in navigating the required real estate procedures they are inherently obliged to adhere to in order to sucessfully achieve their real estate goals. We found Susana Gutierrez Manna, LLC, to be the kindest and most patient as well as polite real estate attorney we had ever encountered. She kept her calm and patience throughout our professional engagement with her from February to May 2024 to sell our apartment in preparation for our impending relocation to another US state. The same can be said about Janet who works with Susana and who replied to my many queries when Susana was not immediately available to respond. To put things into perspective, I wanted to point out that Mediterranean North has an extremely complicated and excessively bureaucratic administrative set up with its domineering and overbearing building management team, cooperative board and cooperative board attorney's office and their unnecessarily rigid and ridiculously archaic rules and regulations that must be complied with in order for any real estate transactions to commence, proceed and be concluded. At times, it felt like we were cautiously and with much trepidation trying to carefully navigate a perilous journey through a proverbial and extremely dangerous minefield. Susana never lost her cool and she as well as Janet working seamlessly with our realtor, Liza Rogala from Christies International, to assist my son and me with the eventual closing on the sale of the apartment we had purchased at Mediterranean North so that we could relocate to another state. Thank you very much, Susana and Janet! Thank you very much to Liza for finding and engaging the services of the Law Office of Susana Gutierrez Manna,  LLC for my son and me! Thank you very much to Liza, Susana and Janet for working hand-in-hand with each other to enable my son and me to finally conclude the sale of our apartment at Mediterranean North! We could not have done it without the "Dream Team" of Susana, Janet and Liza! read more

As a real estate agent, you are always asked to recommend an attorney. For over 20 years Susana has been in my A List. She is a simply fabulous attorney who spends a tremendous amount of time and effort helping her clients. Here's something else too - Susana is an attorney who does NOT outsource her work. So many do these days and in my view that really stinks. Susana reads every document, goes over everything with all clients and knows what's going on. That is becoming a rarity these days. She takes the best care of her clients with the highest standards of practice period. Susana has taken customers of mine through the most difficult times, through first time purchases to retirement sales. Whether she represents a buyer or seller, she always represents them exceedingly well. I've never ever heard 1 complaint in 20+ years but I've received a lot of "Thank you for recommending Susana - she's great!" She has a great office with experienced professionals. Plus she's a genuinely nice lady. If you need an attorney to represent you, you can't make a mistake in calling upon Susana Gutierrez Manna, Esq. read more

Susana and her office staff are incredibly friendly and responsive, they made buying a home in the midst of a pandemic as stress free as possible. We had four attempts to purchase homes that she represented us for that fell through due to issues with the sellers and homes, and as stressful as that was we never worried about any of the legal aspects as we were certain Susana was navigating and advocating on our behalf legally. Prompt, responsive, professional, well versed in real estate- and just completely warm and pleasant to deal with. We wish there were more stars to give Ms. Gutierrez Manna and her staff. read more

It was the biggest mistake that I chose to work with this office. No response at all, after paid the deposit and signed the agreement, Susana just disappeared. Never reply emails, never answer a call... anyway, I didn't want to change a law office in the middle of the deal, but what was the worse, we had to postpone the closing date from 11/16 to 11/20 and again to 11/23, because they didn't check that the documents I sent on 11/13. I understand in the pandemic situations, something will be harder than before, everything could be delayed and more difficult than normal, but this kind of mistake that I sent a docu but they didn't check the email so they said this was missing was unacceptable. I only can say they are careless. I did everything I could and hope the person, especially a professional who got paid for that, can do their own work, but it seems for them this is hard. I just want to warn the person who will work with this office that if you are fine with following up all the things by yourself and worry about your case, also you don't mind if your case can be delayed due to the unfollow up by this office, Go ahead and work with them. read more

Susana is a first-class real estate attorney and has been exceptional in helping us with our house closing. As first-time buyers, we were inexperienced and nervous sometimes with the entire process, but she helped and guided us calmly through all the steps. We couldn't ask for better support and knowledge - Susana gracefully negotiated with the Sellers on our behalf, pro-actively handled the paperwork and some potential issues (oil tank checks, repair talks). In all these actions she looked for our best interests and gave us solid feedback whenever we were unsure what's going on. And at the end of the day, she even used her sense of humour to lighten our hopes and support us. All in all, she is a truly remarkable attorney and person, and we're glad someone referred her to us. We would recommend Susana and her law practice to anyone, and we'll gladly call on her services the next time we're in need. Thank you Susana for helping us, thanks for being a star ! read more

There are not enough words to describe how amazing Susana is! She helped us with selling our home and when we hit a snag she was took a stressful situation and handled it through and through.

Beyond happy with her services and now a loyal client that would wholeheartedly recommend. Thank you so much Susana! read more

Thank you Susanna and Lisa for the excellent handling in the selling of my Mothers home. You are a class act. Will highly recommend.

Susana did an amazing job for me. There was some stress in the transaction but not related to the Law office. I suggest you be on top of your transaction and Susana will execute what you say you want. For example, seller left trash and other items in the house as we are signing the documents, seller said they will take this out by the end of the week and to go ahead and sign. Susana said we are already holding $500 for a different issue, so if they don't take this out, you will deal with the trash and the $500 will be yours. I told Susana that if they want to leave all that behind, please add $2000 to escrow in addition to the $500 (trash & appliances cost a lot of money to remove), and simply Susana did what I asked. seller was there in 2 hours after closing to remove the items they left behind. so you see, she will look for your interest, but you also have to think for yourself. I would choose Susana again for any future transaction and recommend her office to anyone looking to buy/sell. read more
