I've probably called Mike a 100 times during my home buying process. He always answered every question I had, and more importantly, gave me the time I needed. I highly recommend Michael to anyone looking for someone to help them through the home buying process, especially those new to the process, wh...o like me, will need answers through every stage.

I was a CLIENT of Michael Schonberger's last year when I consulted him about how to handle my house after my husband died. I signed an agreement for him to provide services if I needed them and I gave him a $1000 deposit. After 8 months I never received an email from him. Just one phone call.... Never received a statement or a recapitulation of services. No services had been rendered and I did not think I was going to have a problem with the house. So I emailed Michael Schonberger and asked for my deposit back. He refused and said that my deposit had been used towards services rendered. I asked what services and also asked why I had never received a statement. The agreement I signed did not have an expiration date for the deposit nor did it state anywhere that the deposit was non-refundable. But he still refused to give me my money back.

Honest, knowledgeable, experienced, forthcoming, and very helpful. Keeps his client’s interests first and foremost. Will definitely work with him again and highly recommend his services. As perspective home buyers, my wife and I hired Mike Schonberger as a real estate attorney to conduct the rev...iew of a real estate offer contract that we had submitted with a realtor and had been accepted by the sellers. To our great benefit, Mike immediately disapproved the contract and requested the inclusion of additional language to protect our interests. The sellers of this property were very difficult to work with and attorney review lasted for over two weeks. During that period, Mike kept in contact with the seller’s attorney and kept us well informed of what was being requested of us and what we should and should not be willing to accept. Toward the end of the negotiations, the seller verbally requested that if we were to concede a couple of items, that the deal would be complete. After talking with Mike, we decided that were willing to concede these items; however, upon the seller’s submittal of the requested contract language, Mike pointed out and explained to us that there were a number of terms listed that we had not discussed and that we should not be willing to concede. His explanation was very clear and ultimately led us to rejecting the contract and terminating the negotiations. Throughout this process, Mike was the only party involved who kept our interests his highest priority. He was always willing to explain things to us in a way that made sense, and if not for him, we may have gotten into a contract that we would have regretted. My advice: do not trust a realtor to keep your interests in mind, but rather use an attorney as honest and knowledgeable as Mike to work through any real estate transaction.

I invested in a real estate venture with Mike Schonberger, who handled all the legal matters involved with the transaction. He was thorough, professional, and timely in all my dealings with him. The investment was very successful and exceeded my investment objectives. Mike was flexible and easy to wo...rk with at all times. He thoroughly explained the risks and benefits of every decision that needed to be made. I would be happy to work with Mike again should the right investment opportunity arise.

I have hire Michael to help resolve an issue with a Real Estate transaction, and we have been working on this issue for several months now, and he has always kept me informed and is great at presenting our options. He does go the extra mile when working on this case. I meet Michael when he represente...d a borrower, that we have had done several loans with and I always enjoyed my experience when working with him. I have worked with many attorneys across the nation and a couple previous to Michael and he rank at the top of my list.
