A consummate professional who delivered an outstanding outcome

When our family-owned business faced a complex commercial litigation matter involving a significant property dispute, we turned to Stuart Lederman. His four decades of experience were immediately apparent. Stuart possesses a rare combination of deep legal knowledge in both commercial and real estate law and a pragmatic, strategic approach to resolving disputes. He meticulously analyzed our case, explaining the nuances of New Jersey's eminent domain and condemnation laws with clarity, which was crucial as the opposing party was a municipal authority. His recognition as a multi-year 'Lawyer of the Year' in that specific field was not just a title; it translated into a commanding presence during negotiations. Stuart and his team at Riker Danzig were always prepared, responsive, and genuinely invested in our success. He guided us away from unnecessary conflict while fiercely protecting our interests, ultimately securing a settlement that far exceeded our expectations. His professionalism and expertise are truly exceptional.
