BEST REAL ESTATE LAWYER

Stephen is by far the best real estate lawyer I have ever come across. I recently bought a house that took me more than 7 months to close. Just days before the scheduled initial closing, the bank took the property from the owner which meant the house was foreclose and was offered as a short sale. Ste...phen, stood by me knowing that I wanted the property. he encourage me, reached out to the other party's attorney to ensure the short sale process was sped up. At the end I got the key to the property with many thanks to the selfless help of Stephen. He is very indispensable and I was able to reach him at work, though his cell phone even at his home phone. This is my second dealing with Stephen, he help closed my first home which I sold in 2018 and now to my new home. I will highly recommend with Stephen.

Outstanding!

My wife and I hired Steve to handle a sale and purchase on the same day. Through “speed bumps” along the way ( on the buyers end) Steve was always available to set us at ease with the whole process. Highest recommendation for your legal needs. Thank you Steve you were appreciated.

Helpful, Respectful and Quick

I couldn't be happier with the help that Stephen Ketaineck provided during our sale and two purchases. We sold one house as a family and bought two condos over the last two months and Mr. Ketaineck was wonderful for all three sales. He explained everything clearly, was easy to talk to, covered the ...heavy lifting for the negotiations and responded in a timely fashion. I wouldn't hesitate to contact him for any future work and am thrilled with the service he provided to me and my family.

Would highly recommend!

Buying a house and securing a mortgage are stressful enough. By the time you get to the closing you want an experienced and professional attorney to guide you through the process. Attorney Ketaineck is all that and more! He was in constant contact with us giving us updates every step of the way. He i...s a great advocate for his clients and great to work with. When it came time for the closing all of the documents were explained to us as we were signing them. From the beginning Attorney Ketaineck had our trust and faith that everything would go smoothly and it did. Thank you so much!!!
