Super professional and thorough

Shameen was a wonderful attorney. She was quick to respond, professional, very thorough and made our home buying process as simple as possible. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for real estate attorney.

Real estate closing in Lincoln Park.

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.

gold standard

Shameen flawlessly handled the sale of my condo AND the purchase of my new home. In one day. Did I mention it all happened in one day?? She was proactive, skilled, and accessible. I am so grateful that she represented me during these important transactions (and at a very reasonable rate). I can’t rec...ommend her more highly.

An Exceptional Real Estate Attorney

Shameen was extremely professional and on top of every detail for the real estate transaction for which she was hired. I found her to be extremely easy to work with and she was always available to answer my questions in a very timely manner. I highly recommend Shameen for your real estate needs.

Fast, friendly, patient

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.
