I engaged Jonathan Schechter at Kirkland & Ellis to represent our small business in negotiating a new commercial lease for our flagship store in Manhattan. The process was daunting, with a sophisticated landlord's agreement full of onerous clauses. Jonathan's deep, 12-year focus on New York real estate law was immediately apparent. He didn't just review the document; he explained the long-term financial and operational implications of each provision in clear, practical terms. His recognition in the field of real estate law is well-deserved, as he leveraged his knowledge to secure critical concessions on operating cost caps and renewal options that our previous counsel had missed. Jonathan was accessible and thorough, patiently walking our team through every revision. The one area where we occasionally felt a slight delay was in email response times during peak periods, which is understandable given his likely caseload at a firm of this caliber. Overall, his strategic advice was invaluable. We secured a far more favorable and protective lease, giving us real peace of mind for our most significant location. I would confidently recommend him for any complex real estate matter.
