Attorney Mayer S. Klein brought 43 years of experience to my case involving a real estate dispute, and his deep knowledge of Litigation - Real Estate was evident in his strategic approach. He successfully resolved a complex property boundary issue for me, leveraging his recognition by Best Lawyers in this field. However, I found the initial consultation somewhat rushed, and follow-up responses took longer than expected. While his legal expertise is impressive, particularly in closely held companies and family businesses law, I would have appreciated more personalized attention. The final outcome was satisfactory, but the process could have felt more collaborative. For clients prioritizing efficiency over hand-holding, Mayer is a solid choice.

I worked with Mayer S. Klein on a closely held company dispute, and while his experience in business law was evident, the process was slower than expected. He provided sound legal advice based on his 43 years of practice, particularly in closely held companies, but the communication could have been more timely. The resolution was favorable, but the wait times between updates were long. His expertise is clear—especially given his recognition by Best Lawyers—but I would have appreciated more proactive communication. Overall, a competent attorney, but not the most responsive.

I worked with Mayer S. Klein of Frankel, Rubin, Klein, Payne, & Pudlowski PC on a complex real estate litigation case, and while his legal expertise was evident, the overall experience left me with mixed feelings.
