Experienced Real Estate Lawyer in Astoria, NY
- Steve Leunes, Esq.

Steve has been our attorney for two home purchases and he is fantastic. He is diligent, responsive, and articulates well to his clients what they need to know/risks and options. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a real estate attorney.

We worked with Steve to buy our first home in Brooklyn. He was knowledgeable, friendly and responded promptly to all our questions even on weekends or after hours. We appreciate his help in guiding us through the process and recommend him to anyone looking to buy a home.

Steve helped us close on our apt sale. Steve clearly articulated our options and made sure we were well informed to make decisions. I would absolutely work with Steve again.

If you want an honest standup guy, this is your man. He is not afraid to tell you how it is and helps you without leaving you stranded.

Steve and his team have always been professional, responsive and extremely helpful. I highly recommend working with them.

Steve represented my sister and I in our purchase of a single family home in Queens, NY. He is truly incredible, and we both would highly recommend him if you’re looking for a real estate attorney for your next transaction. While working with Steve, you can really be assured that someone is always there advocating for you and looking out for your best interests. As first time home buyers, we went into the process with little idea of what to expect from all of the steps that existed after just finding the home itself - but Steve broke the process down and always made sure to thoroughly answer any questions we had along the way. During our search, we initially had an offer accepted on another home that we did not end up purchasing. This was due to gaps in the contract that Steve carefully advised us on to ensure that we were protected. Because things fell through, Steve ultimately spent a lot of his time helping us without anything in return - but still graciously did so. We knew for certain that when we found another home, we’d go back to Steve, and we did. The second time around things went very smoothly, and Steve did just as great of a job at getting us through the process. Another area that Steve really stood out in was his responsiveness. He is one of the fastest responders we’ve worked with not just in this home purchase, but in general professionally. We were constantly amazed by how he’d make himself available for his clients - whether it was evenings, weekends, etc and reply very promptly during those windows as well. His assistant Ananti was fantastic also, and did a great job at supporting us throughout the process. Steve is truly among the best you’ll find. On top of being a very knowledgeable, and hard working real estate attorney, he’s also an incredible person. We’d strongly recommend him for your next real estate transaction in the NYC area!

My fiance and I recently worked with Steve while purchasing our first home, a coop in Astoria. We are so thankful for Steve's guidance and support - he was extremely attentive and informative, and worked with us for months to get us through each step of the process. Steve really took the time to explain each document in a way that we could understand, and was very responsive and quick to answer any questions we had. We would absolutely recommend Steve to anyone looking for a real estate lawyer!

I worked with Steve for my condo purchase and couldn't be happier with his professional advises. He is super friendly and easy to talk to. More importantly, he was very responsive during this overwhelming and stressful time and answered all my questions (which I had a lot) with patience. Never felt I was rushed or unwelcome. He was always on top of my case, even though I am pretty sure he had a lot of other clients to attend to, and never any delays to respond to me and the bank's requirements. Thank you so much Steve!

Steve represented me for the sale of my co-op apartment. He was highly responsive and managed to make the process very painless, which, for anyone familiar with co-op real estate transactions, is rarely the case. Overall, I was very pleased with his services and would use him again.
