Amy has been my attorney since she began her practice. Without hesitation I hired her for four closings in 2002, 2017 and 2020. Amy has provided excellent legal representation consistently over the years. On the occasion I need an attorney, whether for real estate, or another matter, I call Amy with my fingers crossed hoping she’ll be able to represent me. Amy is knowledgeable, prompt in her communication and understands her clients needs. There is no other attorney I’d trust with my will preparation and was thrilled when she let me know she can assist me with such a sensitive matter. I know I am in good hands and will be treated with care by my attorney of choice Amy Berkowitz-Ortiz.

I hired Amy as my real estate attorney for my first home. Needless to say, I had so many questions regarding the contracts and all the other legalities involved. Amy was so thorough and patient in explaining everything to me. She was always available when I had questions. Her vast knowledge made me feel so at ease with the biggest purchase of my life. I would without a doubt recommend her!

Amy Berkowitz-Ortiz was amazing to work with for our house closing. She worked on our contract which was not your typical contract due to personal financial issues that needed to be delicately handled in the contract. She ironed it out to work perfectly for us with the sellers attorney. We had a very difficult real estate agent that we had to deal with on the sellers end. She handled all of the communication once the agent starting calling us and texting us daily with demands that were not her decision to make or contact us with. Our mortgage was not a straight forward situation and she made sure the legal end with the sellers worked best for our needs. Our closing went smoothly without any surprises or hitches due to her expertise. She was always easy to get in contact with when ever we had a question, concern or issue. She was very responsive and always called us back or emailed us within a very timely manner. We highly recommend Amy, and will definitely use her again!

Amy Berkowitz-Ortiz handled my Chapter 13 filing with great proficiency and expertise. Filing for bankruptcy has to be a low point in anyone's life, and Amy addressed the various obstacles in this process in a way that made me feel confident I was getting my life back on the right track. She is courteous, attentive, and most of all, patient. This can be a complicated legal matter, and I was concerned that my lack of understanding in completing some of the required tasks would exercise her patience and then some. She was excellent at explaining the complexities of filing bankruptcy in a clear way. Amy is still very attentive to my needs, very responsive with my emails, and a very compassionate person. Amy Berkowitz-Ortiz from day one treated me with respect, shared her knowledge of the law, offered excellent advice and above all, operated with complete integrity. She was available to answer all my questions, and allay my concerns with significant promptness. Amy tirelessly defended my interests and provided me with all the resources and advice necessary to make an informed decision. I cannot recommend her enough.

Ms. Applewhite is a colleague whom I often converse with on legal matters. She often gives good advice and always displays a keen understanding and adherence to the Rule of Law and Ethics that I so admire. I am honored to make this review of Ms. Applewhite; my friend in the law.

She thrives on solving complex problems with innovative solutions.
