About Us
Boutique service. Big-firm experience.
Founded on the principle that every client deserves an attorney's full attention, Altschul & Goldstein PC has served New York families, buyers, and entrepreneurs since 1978.
Our Story
Built on relationships, not billable hours
Altschul & Goldstein PC began as a two-attorney partnership with a shared belief: New Yorkers navigating major life and business decisions deserve counsel who treats their matter like it's the only one on the docket. Over four decades later, that philosophy remains unchanged.
Today, our attorneys guide clients through real estate closings across every NYC borough, craft estate plans that protect families for generations, and help entrepreneurs launch businesses on solid legal footing — all with the same hands-on approach that built our reputation.

Our Approach
What clients can expect from day one
Personal Attention
You will work directly with an attorney — not be passed between paralegals. Every client gets a direct line to the person handling their matter.
Plain-English Guidance
We explain every contract, clause, and deadline in language you can actually understand, so you always know what happens next.
Local Market Expertise
Decades of closings across Brooklyn, Manhattan, and the outer boroughs mean we know the co-op boards, title companies, and courts firsthand.
