I engaged Thomas Leslie at Greenberg Traurig to represent me in the acquisition of a mixed-use property in Brooklyn, a transaction with significant zoning considerations. His deep experience in New York real estate law, particularly the land use aspect for which he is recognized, was evident. He navigated the complexities of the city's approval processes with a sure hand, and his background in banking and finance law was helpful in structuring the deal. Ultimately, the closing was successful. However, my experience was a mixed bag. While Thomas is clearly knowledgeable, communication was sometimes a challenge. Responses to emails could take several days, and updates were often initiated by me rather than proactively provided. For a firm of this caliber, I expected a more responsive client service model. His legal advice was sound, but the overall management of the client relationship felt just adequate. He is a capable attorney who knows his field inside and out, but be prepared to manage the communication flow yourself if you need regular updates.
