Our Approach at JLC & Associates

We center our approach representing NYC residential real estate clients around communication, clarity and care. For purchases, we conduct detailed due diligence on cooperative and condominium boards (financials, meeting minutes, questionnaires, legal filings, etc.) and review public records from various city agencies to provide a full assessment of risk prior to entering in to each deal. For sellers, we navigate deals from contract to closing while minimizing exposure to liability. Our goal is simple: to protect your interests while making your experience as smooth as possible.

Years of Experience

I worked with Elizabeth Aquino Esq. to sell my Condo in Brooklyn. They kept everything running very smoothly from beginning to end, with prompt, clear, and concise advice. They worked tirelessly behind the scenes to iron out any bumps encountered with the other parties involved with the sale. I couldn't have asked for a better experience!

Tom B.
Residential Seller

No one is better! I was sad for my apartment to close because that meant we would no longer be working with Jean and her incredible team!

Amanda M.
Residential Buyer

Although I’m an attorney myself, the legal and technical intricacies of NYC real estate law were new to me – Jean, from the outset to finish, explained the entire process to me and meticulously went through each provision in each legal document put in front of me. She would foresee and preempt issues before they came up during the negotiation process.

Juelle G.
Residential Seller

Everyone at the firm is personable, knowledgable, and best of all for a first time buyer, incredibly patient and not at all patronizing. Helped navigate all aspects of the process with ease and settle all of our concerns. Highly recommend!
