Real Estate Transactions & Litigation

Residential and commercial closings, real estate disputes, foreclosure closings and defense, and landlord–tenant matters including rent-stabilized evictions.

For most families and many businesses, real estate is their most valuable asset, and New York real estate law is famously complex. Whether you are buying your first home, investing in a mixed-use building, defending against foreclosure or dealing with a tenant who has stopped paying rent, you need counsel who handles both the deal and the dispute.

Ankaa Law represents buyers, sellers, investors, landlords, tenants and homeowners across New York City, Long Island and Westchester. Because we practice both real estate transactions and real estate litigation, we draft contracts with an eye to how they will hold up in court, and we litigate with a clear understanding of how deals are structured.

  • Bilingual service. We explain contracts, title reports, court papers and settlement terms in English or Chinese.
  • Connected to your broader plan. We coordinate property ownership with your estate plan and holding structures, so each purchase fits your long-term goals.
