I engaged Jeffrey Ruskin at McDermott Will & Schulte to assist my small business with a commercial lease for a new retail space in Manhattan. The landlord's initial proposal was heavily one-sided, with several concerning clauses regarding maintenance responsibilities and renewal options. Jeffrey's focused expertise in New York real estate law was immediately apparent. He meticulously explained the implications of each section, referencing specific statutes and recent market precedents that I, as a layperson, would never have considered. His recognition in the field of real estate law felt well-earned, as he drafted precise counter-proposals that protected our interests without derailing the negotiations. The deal closed successfully, and we secured far more favorable terms. The only slight critique, and the reason for a 4-star instead of a 5-star rating, is that during the final 48-hour push, response times to emails could occasionally stretch to several hours, which added a bit of stress. That said, his substantive work was outstanding. For anyone navigating the complexities of New York real estate, from acquisitions to leases, Jeffrey Ruskin provides knowledgeable and effective counsel.
