I’ve had the opportunity to work with Mr AlKhatib on refinancing our home. I found him to be accommodating and diligent. Most importantly, he took his fiduciary duties VERY seriously and made sure that I did not overspend a single penny in the entire process.

Faisal took on my case. It was a difficult case that prior lawyers were unable to resolve. He was very prompt and professional. He comes highly recommended.

I have hired Mr. Elkhatib in more than one occasion for real estate legal work. He has helped me in closings, tax disputes, and saved me from foreclosure on my condo. He is reliable and knowledgeable about real estate law. I highly recommend him for any legal assistance you may need.

I utilized Faisal on a number of property acquisition and sale deals. Some involved foreclosure auctions. Two involved evictions. Some involved buyers who were difficult to close with. All were brought to successful completion.

Thorough, an individual who researches a case before taking a position. Works for the client being mindful of the costs vis-a-vis, the awards to be achieved.

Faisal consulted on our case with fellow lawyer Michelle Andres. This guy is sharp as a tack. The advice and suggestions he gave were right on target. I highly recommend the EV HAS law firm ! Congrats on his new baby girl !

I contacted Mr. Fisal in regards to a tenant - landlord issue. He was extremely helpful and addressed all of my questions and concerns promptly. I will definitely give him referrals and use him for all of my real estate matters.

I shopped three firms before hiring Mr.Elkhatib . He fought Ocwen Finance and won. He somehow managed to lower my monthly payment by $800.00 per month and forced Ocwen into reducing my Principle Balance $264,000. Yes, you are reading this correctly. $264,000 principle reduction ! You rock Mahmoud Faisal Hasan Elkhatib !
