Achieving Remarkable Results for Our Clients
“dedicated…exceptionally capable…responsive”
Over the past 18 months, Ellen has been a standout legal partner to MAG Partners as we closed retail leases across two of our newest multifamily projects in New York City. These were complex, fast-moving deals with multiple tenants, and Ellen brought the judgment, calm, and command needed to drive them home. She blends legal discipline with real business acumen. Ellen sees around corners, negotiates with clarity and professionalism, and delivers excellent work under pressure. She quickly became a trusted extension of our team, working seamlessly with our leasing group and brokers to advance every transaction. In a business where precision and partnership matter, Ellen rises above. She’s dedicated, responsive, and exceptionally capable — and I enthusiastically recommend her.

“speed…quality…24/7 dedication”
A long‐standing client of mine facing a lease expiration planned to move into a new office under an extremely short timetable. From term sheet to lease execution, working with Ellen was seamless. She quickly navigated all aspects of lease negotiation, never sacrificing quality legal review for speed. The lease was executed in weeks thanks to Ellen’s expertise, and 24/7 dedication to the assignment from start to finish.

when the lawyer becomes
the client
After spending my career as a real estate attorney in New York City, I have a deep appreciation for what exceptional legal representation looks like. So when I recently needed counsel to negotiate a retail lease for a property I co-own, I turned to Ellen Sinreich. Ellen was everything I hoped for and more. She is smart, strategic, detail-oriented, practical, and highly effective in negotiations. She understands both the legal and business sides of a transaction and never loses sight of her client's objectives. What stood out most was the trust I felt throughout the process. Ellen brought clarity to every issue, anticipated challenges before they arose, and handled the negotiation with a level of skill and professionalism that inspired complete confidence.

“extraordinary…team player”
I give Ellen my highest endorsement and highly recommend her. I have had the pleasure of working with Ellen for over three years on behalf of two very different organizations. Her tenant/landlord knowledge, attention to detail, and responsiveness are extraordinary. In a world where your team is everything, Ellen gives me confidence that I can handle any issue with her at my back. I respect Ellen professionally, and even more importantly, value her partnership personally, and would enthusiastically recommend her to anyone seeking to retain an attorney.

“wonderful…detail-oriented…trusted advisor”
I’ve known Ellen for many years, and as counsel to us on a particularly challenging lease with a national retailer, she proved to be a wonderful, detail-oriented and trusted advisor who knows how to get deals done.

“strategic advocate…focused…determined”
We have worked with Ellen Sinreich and The Sinreich Group for the past five years, most recently on a complex headquarters lease in Miami. The transaction presented significant challenges, and the negotiations were not always straightforward. Throughout the process, Ellen was a steady, strategic advocate for our company. She understood our business objectives, anticipated issues before they became problems, and remained focused on securing the protections we needed while keeping the deal moving forward. What I value most about working with Ellen is her determination, speed, attention to detail, and ability to stay calm and solutions-oriented under pressure. She consistently combines strong legal judgment with practical business advice and never loses sight of getting the deal done the right way.

“relationship builder…problem solver”
I have had the pleasure of working with Ellen Sinreich for quite some time. Ellen is an extremely smart and efficient lawyer who turns around deals in record time. I can always count on Ellen to build the right relationships, both internally at Taubman and with the tenant’s attorney, to successfully resolve the thorny issues that can kill a deal. She has become an extension of our close in-house team. I am very grateful that I have Ellen to rely upon as a resource.

“invaluable guidance…tireless attention”
We retained The Sinreich Group to negotiate and finalize our new office lease. Ellen Sinreich was lead counsel and provided us with invaluable guidance and tireless attention. We are thrilled with the outcome. Ellen can be relied upon to get any lease, no matter how difficult, over the finish line in record time.

“hands on…one of the best”
As general counsel for a publicly traded real estate investment trust with a national portfolio of shopping centers, finding the best legal talent was critical. Of all the highly regarded law firms we worked with, we found The Sinreich Group to be one of the best. They are hands on and repeatedly got even the most complicated, difficult leases done in record time.

“achieved our goals”
We engaged Ellen to negotiate a single tenant net lease with a large healthcare organization. The lease was critical to the valuation of the underlying property and our ability to sell it. Ellen’s understanding, knowledge and experience led to a very carefully crafted lease that worked for both parties, and a disposition that achieved our goals.
