Wertime Ries & Van Ullen Pc

Was really happy with the legal services I received from Kate Hentnik when selling my house. She is responsive, affordable and straight to the point. I will definitely use her again as needed.

Lawyer. Therapist. Kristen Casper does it all and more. From estate planning to real estate closings, family squabbles to National Grid frustrations, Kristen helped us with our father's life estate planning and then closing on his house after he passed. She made the entire process smooth and easy and was always available to answer all our many question. We are grateful for all of her advice, knowledge and help.

After working with many real estate attorneys in the area, I can confidently say none come close to the level of excellence and expertise that Kate Hentnik brings to the table. Kate was an absolute powerhouse during the recent sale of our home. Her responsiveness, unmatched expertise, razor-sharp communication skills, and excellent attention to detail set her apart from the rest. What truly makes Kate a standout is her integrity and unwavering commitment to her clients. She doesn’t just meet expectations—she obliterates them. Kate honors her fiduciary duties like no other, always putting her clients’ interests front and center. And when challenges arise, she doesn’t flinch—she handles them like the boss she is. There aren’t enough words to express our gratitude for her work. Kate isn’t just a great lawyer—she’s in a league of her own. If you want the best of the best, Kate Hentnik is it. A total breath of fresh air in the real estate world. Thank you, Kate!

Great law firm. High quality lawyers that listen and treat you with respect, and work hard to satisfy clients and provide genuine and caring guidance on legal issues. One of the best in Albany.

My wife and I hired Wertime, Ries & Van Ullen to help with our house closing. Kate Hentnik was our lawyer and she was an absolute pro. I've never had anyone respond to emails as quickly as Kate when we had questions, day or night. Before closing, we were warned by family and friends that it would take several hours. Kate got us through all the paperwork in less than an hour! She really knows her stuff and we would never dream of ever using anyone else.

Kate Hentnik was our real estate attorney for both home purchase and sale of our own home and we could not have been happier! Kate is extremely knowledgeable, great with negotiations, very efficient, and is always looking after your interests. You can simply rely on and trust Kate's advice. Always :). Another huge point of difference for Kate is that she's always available and responds pretty much immediately, which was super helpful in a few instances for us. Highly recommended real estate lawyer!

I had great service, and it was a please to work with them. They helped me out after I ended my relationship with the lawyer I had originally hired to help with a real estate sale, which wasn’t working out. The staff is very responsive.

Great job
