I highly recommend using Carolyn Weiss. This was my first time purchasing a home and I had a great experience. Carolyn helped me understand the process, answered all of my questions and was very responsive. She helped take the anxiety away of a very intense process and make it enjoyable and smooth. I'm grateful for Carolyn's support and expertise.

I called several weeks ago. I was told 3 different times I would receive a phone call back from a lawyer. Still no response this is ridiculous. Here I am trying to give them business and they obviously arent interested. Why would anybody want them to represent them if they cant even bother to return a simple phone call. Even left a message for the head lawyer and no response either. Totally disgusted. They definitely lost business from me. I highly do not recommend this firm

I recently closed on my first home in westchester, NY and hired Carolyn as my attorney to assist me through my purchase. Carolyn was amazing and helped me every step of the way with explaining contract details, answering questions regarding mortgages, taxes, titles and always responded to emails and calls promptly. I would recommend Carolyn to all of my friends and family. Thank you for your help Carolyn!

The law offices of Weiss & Weiss went above and beyond in handling a ligation case involving a large corporate landlord and my entity. They diligently explained every situation to me and answered all of my questions. I had the pleasure of dealing with both Eric and Carolyn Weiss, who, from the very start, was upfront and realistic regarding the situation and expectations. I would recommend them to anyone in need of a law firm to handle any complex commercial lease matter.

I like Eric & Carolyn, they are lawyers with good heart, compassionate and very professional with dignity. Their service fee is very reasonable. They are very expert in handling partition case that solved the feud between me and my sibling joint ownership of our house. I will highly recommend both of them.
