I engaged Steve Lazar at Greenberg Traurig for a contentious commercial lease dispute involving a significant retail space in Manhattan. His background in real estate litigation, noted by his recognition in that field, was evident. He understood the nuances of the case and provided sound legal strategy. However, the experience was mixed. While his analysis was sharp, communication sometimes lagged; responses to emails could take several business days, which was stressful during active negotiations. For a straightforward matter, his competence is clear, but the level of partner-like accessibility I expected from a firm of this caliber wasn't fully met. He resolved our issue adequately, but the process required more proactive management on my part.
