For over twenty years, I’ve had the good fortune to work with Marty Becker of the law firm Becker Gurian for my real estate needs. Marty becomes intimately involved with all aspects of a transaction and provides excellent counsel and professional services. My needs have ranged from the simple to the complex: forming LLCs, lease transactions, multi-faceted development deals, complex sale/exchange negotiations. Marty’s skills as an attorney looking out for my best interests has resulted in him acting as a negotiator concerned with doing each deal the right way, a businessman who understands the importance of getting the job done, an individual with the highest ethical standards, performing beyond my expectations. I am more than satisfied with Marty and his colleagues at Becker Gurian, I am proud to say that my attorney is Marty Becker.

Marty Becker has been my real estate attorney for almost two decades, and he brings a professionalism and service level to every matter that is rarely found.  He not only understands the technical points of real estate law, but is pragmatic and practical in negotiations, which leads to quick resolutions of issues and a timely closing of transactions.  I could not recommend him any more highly to prospective clients.

Robert Blacher and his team at Becker Gurian were instrumental in helping us to develop and establish our not-for-profit public charity. They explained the process and helped walk us through filing and registering as a 501(c)(3) in a remarkably timely manner. He has continued to support us with the management of our organization and assist with all our tax and legal questions. Not only has Robert provided us with his expertise, he has gone above and beyond when he did not have the answers, recruiting the help of others who did. Since the formation of Make A Change International in July of 2014, we have supported over 40 health care professionals on medical service trips to underserved communities in 7 countries across the world. The ongoing service through our organization is only possible because of the continued dedication and sacrifice of Robert and his team.
