Although it was hard to leave the Rocky Mountains, she returned to Chicago to attend DePaul University, where she graduated with a Juris Doctorate in 1984.

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.
