My cousin was evicted from his cooperative apartment. Within a few days Mark got back possession of the apartment and within 10 days, to our relief, he got the judgment of possession and warrant of eviction dismissed. We are very grateful to Mark and the work of his office.

Mark Ginsburg is a rare combination of brilliance and humility, sensitivity and strength and no matter what the challenges are he resolutely brings his considerable strengths and skills into action and achieves what is needed. As a real estate broker I appreciate what Mark brings in terms of his vast experience, ingenuity, and excellent communication skills, and am grateful to now have him as my own lawyer. As his client I know I am well protected and advocated for at every single twist and turn that presents itself. Mark is also an excellent writer, and has a special gift for penning excellent legalese that provides legal protection for his client(s). – Leslie Hughes
Thank you does not seem adequate enough to convey how you resolved my HOA problems that have been going on for a year. The HOA stopped communicating with me and threatened to put a lien on my condo. Your knowledge of the law and caring of my situation solved the problem quickly which I could not do myself. Thank you so much for your help. – Therese

Steven Bagwin successfully represented and guided my family and me through several high profile litigations. In one litigation, Steve represented my family employing a novel, unprecedented and aggressive approach to recover legal fees expended on behalf of my daughter Aviva, which were not covered by a contract or statute. Steve was able to obtain summary judgment on our behalf by utilizing his creativity and strong argument skills. In another action, Steve successfully represented me by having a case voluntarily discontinued against me after depositions were held. I credit this result to Steve’s meticulous preparation, knowledge of the law and facts associated with my case as well as his tenacious deposition style. I have no reservation recommending Steve to anyone seeking a top flight litigator. – George Teichner
Steve Bagwin is a true professional in every way. His guidance and assistance in ensuring that the sale of my Mother’s home went off effortlessly during a difficult time allowed me to focus on other matters. Steve is trustworthy and someone I would recommend for any legal need. – Gary Lilien
I have dealt with hundreds of real estate attorneys and law firms throughout my career and can state with ease that Ginsburg & Redmond is truly one of the finest. They are extremely thorough when representing clients and extremely proactive in resolving any issues that may arise. I believe their wealth of experience coupled with the benefits of individualized attention akin to a boutique law firm such as theirs ensures a seamless transaction for all. Furthermore, their professionalism is top notch in all types of transactions, from the closing of a condominium unit to the closing of a 100 million dollar commercial transaction. It is without a moment’s hesitation that I would recommend this firm. – Jean M. Partridge, Chief Counsel & Managing Member, Benchmark Title Agency, LLC
Our family is in its fourth generation of owning and operating both commercial and residential properties. We have had the pleasure of being able to work with Mark and his team over the last 15+ years. Mark brings to the table not only his vast understanding of the many areas of the law we’ve required his assistance on but his personal commitment to us as his clients. Mark’s style and approach from start to finish became our expected norm. Upon the occasion where other firms were engaged, we discovered, much to our dismay, this is not so. In one case in particular it took us over a year to chase down a closing binder (and it paled in comparison to Mark’s). He has exhibited limitless patience ensuring that the legalese so often used in documents is accompanied by straight English translations and explanations. His final reports and the care he takes in presenting them, such as closing binders, summaries and abstracts have been some of the best we’ve seen. – Kearney Family
Stephen Gaines has been my real estate attorney for over ten years in connection with both my medical practice and the purchase of residential properties. He is a smart, tough and pragmatic negotiator with a knack for resolving complex contract, leasing and financing issues quickly and cost effectively. I would recommend Steve and his firm to anyone who needs top flight real estate counsel. – Dr. Andrew Blank
I have worked with Steve Gaines on numerous development deals involving the acquisition, sale and leasing of properties in the metropolitan area, and he is a superb real estate attorney. Steve is great at finding creative solutions and working with difficult personalities on the other side of a deal. Steve also understands how things really work, so not only does he provide great legal advice and guidance, he is a great sounding board to talk through the issues that you may need addressed as part of your deals. Steve represents the board of my condominium association where his decades of experience in the field have helped him guide us through numerous legal issues. He has also been sensitive to the needs and cost structure of a small condominium. I would heartily recommend him. – Patrick Normoyle
Steve has represented our downtown condominium for over 10 years where he has expertly handled a wide range of issues including non-payment of common charges, smoking and noise complaints, commercial tenant alterations and the negotiation of management and laundry contracts. He is one of the best condominium lawyers in the business and I would strongly recommend him to any cooperative or condominium board looking for counsel. – Michael Smith
The best part during a very stressful process of making the largest purchase in your life, is having an extremely knowledgeable lawyer who you not only trust, but who is extremely responsive. Steve’s experience in real estate law proved invaluable, and this gave us the confidence and comfort of knowing the “t’s” were crossed and the “i’s” were dotted. The best thing I can say is that I would highly recommend him and I will certainly use him on any real estate matters in the future. – Rob Oliver
Stephen Gaines has been counsel to our Upper West Side condo for over five years. He guided us though the transition from a sponsor-controlled board to one run by the unit owners. He has also conducted our annual meetings in an efficient and fair manner and he is adept at handling the personalities and conflicts that invariably arise at times. We are currently in the process of a significant façade renovation project and Steve has been working closely with our architect and contractor in the negotiating the numerous agreements necessary to protect the condo. He is extremely knowledgeable about all areas as of condominium and real estate law and has always been professional, pragmatic and cost-conscious in dealing with our building. I would recommend him without reservation. – Philipp Levy
