“We wanted to thank you all for your assistance with the Trust and closing on XXX. We are very happy to be making progress in getting the house ready for my father-in-law's move at the end of the month.  The closing is yet another example that one can never assume that something simple will be easy! We wanted to express our thanks for prodding the closing agent at first, then correcting her, and then going above and beyond to get her to do the right thing, despite her willful incompetence.  You communicated everything clearly and timely with us throughout the process, and we never worried about the outcome with such a strong team on our side. “

— Jeremy and Siva

“My real estate broker referred me to David Miller, Esq. to assist me with an unfair claim from a predatory finance company. I was very nervous about the possibility of a lien on my home. From the start he treated me like I was his only customer. He maintained open communication throughout the entire matter, and quickly resolved the matter at a minimal cost to me and my family. We are deeply indebted to him for helping us through this frightening experience. I would recommend him to anyone wanting a caring lawyer in a time of need.”

— Juan V.

“Just wanted to thank you for assigning Hope to work with you on my 2 closings. She did a masterful job in juggling the almost simultaneous sell- buy, and my wife and I couldn’t have been happier. I’m just glad that Kathy O’Brien recommended you and the rest of your team.”

— C. Bernhardt


“Dear Stephen:  I am writing this letter to express my gratitude to your Real Estate Paralegal Hope Osani. She was instrumental with working on both of my closings. I was informed by my Executive Assistant Elizabeth that Hope went above and beyond to have my closing for the X Rd Property close weeks earlier at my request. As a principal I always feel it is important to hear feedback pertaining to my employees. I am happy to write this positive letter to inform you that Hope's representation of your firm was professional and courteous. She was able to multi task on my closings, and I am sure take very good care of other clients of your office. When we were faced with obstacles such as the Estoppels documents, HOA/ Change of Management Company and Title Company she was able to work with my Assistant to obtain the documents needed to proceed, and I am appreciative of her diligence and tenacity.”

— J. Sforzo

— S. Salzberg

— C. Santa


“It is with great pleasure to laud, not just recommend, this law firm. Mr. Mathison handled the case of my deceased husband with the utmost professionalism, but, at the same time with compassion and sensitivity. In the future, if the need should arise, I will not hesitate to make my first call to his office.”

— J. Dornfeld-Mayer


“I just want to take a brief moment to thank you for all of your assistance with the Asset Purchase Agreement of X Air Conditioning and CES over the last few weeks. Your counsel helped to make a difficult transaction much easier to complete. On more than one occasion, I was not even sure it was going to come to fruition. Several of my friends and business associates have relayed their experiences with purchases of other businesses, noting that they always seem to have a tendency to ‘blow up,’ if not closely managed. This one was certainly no different! I shall look forward to your assistance with other business matters as I continue to grow CES into the company I envision.”

— S. Markel


“Steve Mathison is a person of high personal integrity and great professional skill. I met him 14 years ago when he represented my wife and me in the purchase of our first home, and he subsequently handled the sale of that home and purchase, financing and refinancing of a new home in BallenIsles. Steve’s advice was instrumental in each of the transactions being closed without incident. He and his staff always responded promptly. He is well known and respected by developers, lenders, homeowner associations and hundreds of individual real estate sellers and buyers. Steve’s paralegal assistants are experienced and knowledgeable and totally familiar with the details of residence real estate transactions. Besides, he is a gentleman and a really nice golfer.”

— D. Gleklen


“I have had a dispute with a finance company for over 2 years. I have cancelled checks providing payment, but they have been sending me statements and phone calls. I finally decided to bring this problem to you. A week later, after your phone call to them, I received a letter from the finance company saying, ‘paid in full.’ This is an example of the excellent service we have received from your firm over the last 15 years. We have used your office for 2 home closings. The second was emotionally difficult for Marcia and me, but you, Nancy and Hope always assured us not to worry. You told us that one of you would be available 24/7 and you always were. Over the last 15 years, we have referred your firm to others, knowing that they would receive the same personal, excellent service you have given us.”

— D. Okun
