Shameen Thakrar

Hired Shameen Thakrar for my closing on a condo in Lincoln Park and was very happy and pleased with her help and professionalism. Shameen always had gotten back to me right away when I had questions or called her. This lady made the process simple for me. She was also nice enough to move the closing ...location for my benefit. I would highly recommend this lady to anyone who would be needing a great real estate attorney. I do plan on using Shameen again at a later date.

I'm no stranger to difficult real estate transactions, but this one was so botched, I ended up filing a complaint against the lender. The deal never would have closed without Shameen, who navigated this extremely complicated transaction involving more parties than usual. And she checked in to make... sure I got lunch on closing day after a flurry of last-minute problems. I won't do another deal without her.

Before we ultimately closed, we were under contract on two other properties. Shameen was our attorney for all three negotiations. She was always quick to get back to us, often making time to speak outside of normal business hours (weekend and nights). She was always friendly and professional, and did... a great job of explaining things to us without ever coming off as patronizing. She would give us—always patiently—her unvarnished opinion, telling us when sellers were being unreasonable and when we were the ones who needed to adjust our expectations. We would absolutely use her again.

Shameen helped me get through a difficult closing where there were delays and a seller who was not cooperative. It was great to have Shameen on my side to facilitate all the ever changing circumstances. She always kept in touch with me and she was on top of making sure all details were covered. I ...highly recommend her for your real estate transactions!
