Testimonials
Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.
‘The best team in the market. Levy Amitay and Yitzchak Kovos are professional and creative.’
‘Yael Mirone Mezamer is a superb lawyer. She has vast experience of the real estate market in Israel. Her representation of all clients in this field (developers, contractors, entrepreneurs, private clients) in all kinds of projects (residential, commercial) brings Yael deep knowledge of the industry.’
‘Its teamwork is very good; if a question arises that is not in the partner's area of expertise, they will refer and follow up, for example, with tax advice, co-op, planning, or specific expertise in real estate such as urban renewal. There is a comprehensive response to all needs.’
‘Goldfarb is an office that I can trust. I can properly consult with the people, they are not just here for transactions. Lawyers demonstrate the highest level of professionalism, deep knowledge of the market, and strong relationship skills, particularly Levy Amitay, Avi Arad, Idan Menchel and Israel Aziel.’
‘Yael Mirone Mezamer and Yael Flatau Bilu, partners in the real estate department, are very professional, available for any question or clarification, and are always courteous.’
