If only I had hired Jason BEFORE I entered into a contract...

I live out of state and was in the middle of a transaction to buy a condo in Wisconsin when I realized I was making a horrible financial mistake. Some information had been withheld and some was coming in after my offer. In a panic, I called several Wisconsin real-estate attorneys to see if I could br...eak the contract; Jason Greller was the only one to call me back. He listened and said it wouldn’t be easy as I had signed away basically all of my rights. I hired him with little hope, but am so thankful I took that leap of faith. He was relentless in looking at every detail. He was honest and direct talking to me. Jason helped me to negotiate a mutually agreeable resolution with the seller. He was very fair in his charges; he earned every cent. My only regret is not seeking Jason’s counsel BEFORE entering into the real estate transaction. I came to realize that not only does he have the expertise of the law concerning real estate and the knowledge of realtors in general, but using his services is a huge bonus as it takes the emotion out of the situation. He is truly working just for you. My advice: Get a real estate attorney. It will save you money in the long run and you will undergo much less stress. You are paying him to protect you. My many thanks and much appreciation to Jason Greller for his patience and expertise helping me.

Proficient, Prompt, Professional and Personal

Jason Greller is proficient, prompt, professional and personal. You won’t find a more attentive and knowledgeable lawyer. We have used Jason four times both for selling and buying homes (one condominium). Jason was always on top of things, letting us know what to expect in advance, catching discrep...ancies and potential issues and taking care of them before they became problems. He responds to emails and phone calls promptly. We have found that we are more comfortable with an attorney working on our behalf when we buy or sell a home rather than a realtor. Each of our four transactions were stress free thanks to Jason. While Jason is extremely knowledgeable, he puts us non lawyers at ease and answers any question clearly, patiently and respectfully. We highly recommend Jason Greller for anyone considering a real estate transaction.

Clear, balanced and honest guidance through the purchase of our home

I'd like to start by saying I am a repeat customer. This is my fourth time working with Jason. Each time I have used Jason's services I feel like it was money well spent. This time I was buying a home. There were no Realtor involved. This was a relatively straight forward purchase - however there... was some work that needed to be done on the property before closing. Jason advised me upfront on the risks, the options and then wrote up the amendments in a way that protected me - but was balanced and accepted by the seller. Jason moved me through the whole process - making sure I was informed of what I needed to do and what the next steps were. Every time I interact with Jason I learn something factual about law. I feel like I am being educated about the process. He backs up his perspective with relevant examples from his past which help me understand the why. If you are buying a home, FSBO or with a Realtor I would recommend Jason's services as money well spent. Patrick

Knowledge and response time were amazing!

Jason was so great to work with! We decided to sell our house without a Realtor. I had contacted a few different Real Estate attorneys prior to putting our house on the market but hadn't made a final decision. During my initial conversation with Jason he informed me that all he needed was for us to... send him an offer to get the process started. Little did we know, we would receive 3 offers within 12 hours of listing our house! I was overwhelmed and had no idea how to handle things at that point. I decided to contact Jason and he was able to review the offers same day (after normal business hours). From the beginning he was extremely knowledgeable and explained things in a way that we could understand. He always provided us with options but also gave us his professional opinion which helped guide us through the process. During one point we encountered an issue with the buyer's financing. Jason was professional and prompt in presenting a solution that would ensure we were covered either way in this transaction; something I don't think other inexperienced attorneys would have done. I couldn't have been happier with the decision to use Jason as our Real Estate attorney and would recommend his services in a heartbeat!

"I'm a fellow lawyer who has worked with Jason on the same side and on opposing sides of several matters. I've found him to be extremely knowledgeable, a strong advocate for his client, honest, ethical and easy to work with. He's able to get to the heart of the matter in a common sense way, without all the phony bravado I often encounter with other attorneys. A smart choice for anyone looking for a great lawyer."
