Joseph T. Lee Rina M. Capicotto Attorneys At Law

Critical: Professionalism, Quality, ResponsivenessCurrently the attorney for my purchasers. He has held up the deal for a month….and counting.We worked out language in the contracts quickly. He had no objections. Still the contract took him 3 times as long as it should have and then on the 5th week he sends a ridiculous rider and makes a ton of changes to the contract without any notice and has his clients sign before sending. We were livid and almost went with our back up buyers. I wish we had.Convinced by our attorneys they they would “stay on top of him” we continued with the deal after a painstaking 6 weeks to get the simple contract and “good faith” deposit out of the way. Now he has taken more than 10 days and has not ordered the title. Once again causing a domino effect and slowing down the deal after he has already asked for a 30 day extension for the “on or about” date.He is an absolute nightmare and does not return calls or emails to our attorney and has no sense of urgency. We fully regret our choice to sell to our purchasers solely based on his unprofessional, and unreasonably slow manner of execution.If your buyers choose this man to do their deal and you have other options, choose the other purchasers or urge them to change counsel especially if you are selling in Suffolk County. As a Nassau attorney, he had little to no knowledge of the way the contracts are done and believe me, that matters when you have someone adding in redundant language that would never be applicable in your area. A first year law student would have been a safer choice.I’m sure his buyers are wholly unaware, but we already want to challenge the contract because of their poor choice in counsel. It will be a cold day in hell before we grant them another extension because at this rate it would still be faster to start all over again with new buyers.Currently the attorney for my purchasers. He has held up the deal for a month….and counting. …More
