Himmelstein McConnell Gribben & Joseph LLP - New York, New York

I lived in a tent stabilized building and was dealing with a landlord who was constantly cutting corners on things like heat. There was also a rowdy neighbor living above. After it became clear over a course of months that the problems weren't going to be permanently resolved, I attempted to terminate my lease, but even that was difficult. I contacted Mr Gribben who gave me some no nonsense advice. My landlord immediately began to take me seriously after I mentioned having contacted a lawyer and offered me an offer to terminate the deal. Mr Gribben offered me some tips to make it better and save me some money. All this happened within a single consultation. I've been renting in NYC for 20 years and have never had to enlist a lawyer and like to be on good terms with my landlord, but this time, this wasn't a possibility and Mr. Gribben was there to help. I know they have some clients who pay more rent than I do and have a lot more money, so I appreciated that they helped a small fry like myself.

My only regret is not reaching out to Himmelstein McConnell Gribben & Joseph LLP sooner. I faced a challenging legal situation, and my attorney, Milad Momeni, was incredibly helpful, providing peace of mind from the very beginning. He patiently listened to my concerns, skillfully guided me through the entire process, and achieved a very favorable outcome. As others have mentioned, their rates are reasonable, and their billing is transparent. I highly recommend Milad Momeni and the team at Himmelstein McConnell Gribben & Joseph LLP.

My partner and I retained this firm to recover a rent overcharge and restore our apartment to rent stabilization. Our attorney, Milad Momeni, listened to our issues with patience and empathy, and ensured we understand our options at every step of the process. He skillfully negotiated a highly favorable settlement for us that compelled the landlord to register the apartment at the legal rent. Their rates are very reasonable and billing is transparent, as well. I’d recommend Milad and this firm to anyone experiencing a similar tenant-landlord problem.

We worked with Jesse Gribben after we discovered our landlord was charging us an illegal amount in a rent-stabilized building. Jesse was available almost every time we needed him, was reassuring, and took our concerns very seriously. In the end, we received a settlement that was acceptable to both parties. If you are a tenant who needs assistance with a less than scrupulous landlord, you must go with Himmelstein, McConnell, Gribben etc. No one looks out for you the same.

I live in a Mitchell-Lama Cooperative and contacted Mr Hershey-Webb because I had been treated unfairly by my Coop Board. He went to work quickly and wrote to the Board based on information I gave him, responding promptly to my concerns and to the Board with well-worded, convincing (to me, and apparently to them) letters to support my case. It worked! He was always positive and supportive. I recommend him highly!

Liz Donaghue helped me when I was about to be evicted after our building was bought out and they were trying to get rid of long term tenants for profit. She is SO thorough, attentive and knowledgeable. The BEST! If you need help, do not hesitate to go with this firm.

I worked with Daniel Nakos to answer some questions I had about one of my past leases in the city. His work was thorough and his objectivity/honesty was incredibly helpful in deciding how to move forward with my case. I would gladly work with him again.

I worked with Jesse Gribben and couldn't be more pleased. Jesse was extremely knowledgeable, professional, timely and had a natural skill for cutting through the noise to get down to what mattered to resolve the (complex) situation at hand. He was able to show all angles of the situation, the relative pros/cons of each and look at everything from a 360 perspective, while being able to drill down into the details to put things in motion.

His knowledge on NYC housing law was unmatched and I'm very happy to have worked with him. I would highly recommend Jesse Gribben without hesitation. The rates are very affordable and fair. While I hope I don't have any situations like this creep up in the future, I'll be calling Jesse if I do. Thanks again Jesse!
