Very thorough

Shameen was very efficient and thorough, and made the closing process easy. She is very detailed and explained everything really well, too. I would definitely use her again

Excellent

Shameen was our attorney on both our home sale and subsequent home purchase. Always timely with replies, Shameen addressed any questions or concerns we had. She also had a wealth of experience to bring to the table, which proved quite valuable. I can't imagine anyone doing a better job than Shameen... did for us.

Review for Shameen Thakrar

Shameen was recommended by our broker when we began the process of purchasing our new home, as we obviously needed an attorney. She was the best recommendation and we had such a great experience with her. We were first time buyers and Shameen was very thorough when explaining everything to us and was... always making sure that we were asking questions and understanding the process. We had experienced some delays in the process (not because of Shameen), and Shameen remained helpful, professional, and patient as we worked to figure out the issues and move forward with the purchase. She was also wonderful at the closing - she explained all of the paperwork in detail but in the most efficient way. I could not recommend Shameen enough.

Straight-forward, easy to understand, and helpful

Shameen was our lawyer when we bought our condo. Being first-time homeowners we did not know what to expect, but Shameen clearly explained everything we were doing. She also made recommendations when we were unsure, but always double-checked before submitting documents. Additionally, she was always p...rompt and responsive.

Great work on closing

Shameen was very helpful and efficient in helping us close on our new condo. She was great at reviewing documents and making sure the right questions were asked. She was always prompt and thorough with her e-mails and tasks. At closing she helped explain a lot of documents in terms that we would u...nderstand since we are not lawyers. We would definitely use her again.
