Richard J. Chertock, Esq.

As a resident of Merrick for over forty years, Richard Chertock has a profound appreciation for the local community and the legal needs of those living throughout Nassau, Suffolk, and the five boroughs. Now entering his twenty-eighth year of practice, Richard continues to believe that the best legal representation comes from a hands-on, personal approach where the attorney is truly accessible. This is why he makes himself available to my clients virtually twenty-four-seven via email or telephone. He knows that your legal questions do not always wait for standard business hours. His career has been defined by representing a broad spectrum of clients, including buyers, sellers, landlords, tenants, and builders, as well as various lenders in both residential and commercial matters. Richard's diverse practice areas range from real estate and landlord-tenant law to wills, trusts, estates, and even debt settlement or moving violations. He also focuses on business formation and private hard money lending. His professional dedication is reflected in his work with the First American Title Insurance of New York Advisory Board and Business Network International. As a proud Zeta Beta Tau alumnus, Richard brings integrity and a neighborly spirit to every single transaction he handles.
