Michael Todd Shilinski

We hired Michael to represent us in the purchase of a new home in Briarcliff Manor NY. As we were moving from California, it was important that we had somebody on our side who had a lot of New York Real Estate experience. There were several intricacies to the deal and at every turn Michael was an exe...mplary advisor and advocate for us. He thought of all the potential issues we might come across and prepared us so well for all eventualities. Also Michael is just a great guy to deal with, nothing is ever too much trouble, we will always use Michael for all our future legal needs, one of the best legal people we have ever worked with.

I was referred to Michael Shilinski by a local real estate appraiser prior to our contract for a home purchase. From the beginning of our home purchase, he presented as capable, conscientious, and responsible. He was immediately helpful in describing the mortgage/contracting process. As first-time ho...mebuyers, we were anxious and unaware of the process and procedures involved in purchasing a home. He made us feel comfortable and worry-free throughout the process. He was able to provide us with a timeline of expectations with regard to our contract, the appraisal, the inspection, and the mortgage expectations. Furthermore, he provided us with additional requirements as homebuyers who were negotiating without realtors. He checked in with us via telephone on a weekly basis and he was readily available to answer questions as they arose. Michael frequently returned phone calls in a timely manner (within that day). Michael seems extremely knowledgeable in his field and provided exceptional advice throughout the process. He made excellent recommendations for additional resources as well. Most importantly, Michael explained all documents at the closing in a comprehensive manner and was well prepared to make the process as efficient as possible. He is a competent, hard-working, professional with an intrinsic concern for his clients. We highly recommend Michael and will definitely seek his guidance with any future legal questions/concerns. It was a pleasure working with him.

Housing market in Chappaqua is very tight. After a substantial amount of time looking for the right house -- we find one, we got an accepted offer at a good price, we wanted to move quickly to get the house off the market before other bidders came in. Michael was timely, responsive, and trustworthy.... He understood our situation. He was willing to be flexible. He was willing to move quickly. Great job. We closed last week.
