Recommend a Real Estate Attorney

 

It's the first time that we purchased a house. We feel lucky to have found Jason as our attorney. Contrary to our friends’ & coworkers’ house buying experience, we feel that the attorney fee was well spent, and Jason was way more helpful than the buyer agent.

We met Jason at a house buying class and he was impressive. When we were ready to hire a real estate attorney, we called a few to compare and he was the oblivious winner. It turned out our decision was right. Jason was very sharp and always on top of things and negotiated hard for us. He looked out for our interests and caught several mistakes and issues in the closing documents. Whenever we have questions or concerns, he is always very responsive (phone and email) even though it was in the holiday season.

Jason always holds your hand every step of the way as and answers our many first-time buyer questions. We realized there were so many parts of this process that were beyond our control, but having the right attorney made a huge difference in reducing our stress and being assured everything would be taken care of thoroughly and professionally. We feel very protected with him. Jason is awesome. We have no hesitation recommending Jason, and would call him again if we move or buy another property.

Re: Recommend a Real Estate Attorney

Mark Herrick is amazing. He is helping us through some difficulties on our property and is exclusive to real estate and short sales or bank issues. His cell number is 847-331-1131. His office is in the suburbs and is under Herrick and.Assoc.
http://www.afhlaw.com/attorneys.html. He can help you with stuff that other attnys can't due to his knowledge of the banks bank's different policies and procedures. Good luck!

[ Edited ]

i don't have a specific recommendation, but NEVER use a lawyer recommended by your agent (or the selling agent).

 

having an agent alone is enough of a conflict (of interest)...

I would highly recommend Joe Horwitz who is an attorney in Wheaton.  He is very experienced with real estate law, extremely knowledgeable about both conventional  and short sales and is very personable which makes him a pleasure to work with.  His contact number is 630-607-2170.
