Our Firm prides itself on meeting your legal needs in real estate, estate planning, and beyond.  Our niche in the market is that we tackle just about all legal aspects of real estate.  While we handle basic residential transactions on a daily basis, we also handle commercial closings, landlord/tenant issues, municipal property matters, foreclosures and foreclosure defense, evictions, housing court, post-closing matters, and title insurance review and claims.  A natural link to these practice areas was to be able to assist clients in their estate planning and corporate matters, which we also do.  Having this detailed background enables us to not only gain business from the traditional sources (word-of-mouth, Realtors, lenders), but also other attorneys who confine their practice to residential closings only and are looking for an experienced referral.  While our home office is in Mount Prospect, our practice takes us from Northern Lake County to Rockford to DeKalb to the Southern Suburbs.
