We worked with Paul Tellier throughout our condo purchase. He was instrumental in guiding us through a challenging closing and helped us negotiate an extended closing date when we needed to pivot from a mortgage lender. I would highly recommend him and Goldman Pease to anyone in my network.

I have owned and managed a 10 unit property in the back bay for the past 20 years. There have been times when we have needed legal advise on issues such as late condominum fees, updating our bylaws to be current with changes in our community, interpretation of law, and implementing building rules and regulations. Howard Goldman and his staff have been very responsive to our needs whether they are big or small and have always resolved our issues in a timely manner. He has always been very fair with his time and fees and I would recommend his services to anyone who is looking for condominium legal advise. Ray L Back Bay Boston

Howard Goldman successfully handled a highly complex real estate transaction everyone told me was not going to be possible due to the unique obstacles in the situation. I was impressed how he found ways to solve every problem that presented itself. Given the extreme complexity of this transaction, I believed at the start it could not be successfully completed. It is no exaggeration to say that Howard went above and beyond my expectations, successfully navigating a uniquely difficult real estate sale. Through it all he was responsive and easily accessible for communication. I highly recommend him.

Howard was a valuable resource and navigated me through the legal maze of setting up my LLC. From explaining all the various legal entity options to the drafting and editing of documents, Howard was patient and understanding. I highly recommend Howard as an advisor and legal counsel.

Howard prepared a will and trust for my ailing father. He was kind, courteous and respectful of my father's dying wishes, as well as knowledgeable about the process. Howard was professional and thoughtful when talking with my dad, and again when I called him after his passing. Thank you Howard for making a difficult situation a little more bearable.

Our condo association was on a very distressed situation at the time we meet Howard Goldman. He not just give us assurance and a realistic diagnostic of the situation, but guide us through every step of the process. His experience to foresee any potential problem thought us multiple lessons. Thanks to Howard we have now a very healthy and vibrant condo association.

Howard has done 4 real estate transactions for us, all of which were handled professionally and timely. He did the sale of our residence, which had complications associated with a prospective buyer. He also did the legal review of our purchase of 2 condominiums including a thorough review of all of the condominium documents. He has lots of experience with condominiums and is an expert at condominium laws. Also, Howard did some contract breach legal work for me as CFO of two companies. He did an excellent job following through on all of these matters and reached a successful result in all cases.

Howard was super efficient and on top of all of the details up until and including the closing. We felt like we knew where things were and that he took the lead to nail down every last detail.
