The Best Attorney

I entered into a real estate contract without retaining an attorney to represent me and instead I agreed to use the Sellers’ attorney as the realtor had suggested. I raised concerns to be addressed within my inspection contingency period to which the sellers never responded. I was past my conting...ency period with a very large escrow already paid, an appraisal valuation that was questionably higher than my offer and my financing was already firmly in place. I reached out to Ms. Salcines 2 days after the inspection contingency period was past as I didn’t feel comfortable with the way the transaction was being managed. She responded to my email within 15 minutes asking for the contract. I retained Ms. Salcines the same day, and she immediately reached out to the Sellers’ attorney and the realtor introducing herself. She also spent a lot of time reviewing the communication between the realtor and I to understand if the transaction was being handled professionally and ethically. In summary, there were quite a number of issues/concerns identified by Ms. Salcines and I was knee deep in a terrible situation. This house was overvalued by ~$300k in the appraisal report and with no contingency left, I would be obligated to close. I am forever grateful to Ms. Salcines for an incredibly quick response, her professionalism and diligence. Within 2 days of retaining her, she was successful in getting the Sellers to cancel the contract refunding me 100% of the escrow. I will never go to a closing table from here onward or sign any contract without Ms. Salcines’. She is very knowledgeable, professional, reliable and attentive. I highly recommend her as she genuinely safeguards your interest like it is her own.

Look no further

We retained Jacqueline at the 11th hour to protect our interests in a deal that had taken a turn for the worst, we were very close to losing our deposit. Mrs. Salcines was 110% on top of things, she was available 24 hours of the day and was relentless in her efforts to get things straightened out. Sh...e communicated with all participants in the transaction on our behalf and she was tough on them, she has zero tolerance for negligence or lack of professionalism. I felt so comfortable and secure knowing that Mrs. Salcines was protecting our interests, we were in good hands . She successfully saw us through to closing. I wholeheartedly recommend Mrs. Salcines to anyone who needs legal advice or representation.

Thanks Anabelle. It was a pleasure to assist you and your husband in getting this transaction closed. I look forward to working together again in the future.

Professional, Responsive and gets the job done.

Attorney Salcines represented me in a trial over a real estate contract. She was successful in winning the judgment in my favor. She has been my attorney for over five years and I highly recommend her if you need help with your legal issue and get the job done.

Excellency

Jacqueline Salcines is by far one of the best lawyers if not the best in Miami-Dade. All of my contracts are done by her, I have a level of trust that I doubt I'll ever have with another lawyer ever. She is very good at what she does and I hope we continue working together. Im 22 years old so I guess... it will be for a long time with Gods help. I recommend her to everyone that asks for a good lawyer that takes her job seriously. Thank you Jackie! You're the best!
