I engaged Javid Afzali at Harris Beach Murtha to assist with a contentious land use and zoning issue for a commercial property I was developing in the Albany area. While his official recognition is in Commercial Litigation, his deep understanding of the regulatory landscape for Energy Law and Land Use was immediately apparent and crucial to our strategy. He navigated the complex local ordinances and opposing counsel with a calm, methodical approach that inspired confidence. His analysis was sharp, and he was able to anticipate several roadblocks before they became major problems, saving us significant time and potential expense. It's clear why he has earned recognition in his field so early in his career. The one area where I noticed a slight delay was in email response times during particularly busy periods, though his legal assistant was always prompt in acknowledging receipt. Overall, Javid provided exceptional value. His advice was not only legally sound but also commercially practical, focusing on achieving our business objectives efficiently. I would not hesitate to recommend him for matters involving commercial disputes or intricate regulatory challenges in New York.
