Buyer

I had a somewhat complicated transaction as an out of state purchaser for a bank owned property in Illinois. Shawn did a great job working with an aggressive lawyer for the seller and also in getting a real estate trust set up for me. Would highly recommend her.

Outstanding Service

As professionals, Shawn and I have known each other for over thirty years. When my parents were selling their home, I felt most confident referring Shawn to represent my parents in their real estate transaction. Shawn’s practice concentrates on real estate law. Shawn brings a level of expertise ...for reviewing contracts and advising clients. Her representation is very detail-orientated, and she can explain complicated contract issues to clients in such a way that makes the client feel comfortable with their legal options. Shawn and her staff are very responsive and approachable during the entire transaction process. Shawn’s negotiation skills and overall legal guidance made my parents’ transaction smooth and successful.

Best Attorney

Shawn has guided me through a divorce, bankruptcy, rebuilding my credit, doing my taxes, and buying two homes. She is honest, hard working and compassionate. I would highly recommend her.

Program Coordinator

I have known Ms. Bolger for many years, and anytime I need a question answered or a real estate transaction taken care of by her and her staff, I have no worries. The dedication her law firm has with their clients is beyond what a client would expect. Thank you for always being there for everything...!
