Melinda Higgins Brom

I highly recommend Melinda, who represented me for the sale of my condo in Hyde Park, Chicago. I live abroad, and thus I needed to find an attorney who could help me close a sale from out-of-country, and whom I could trust. From the first phone conversation, I could tell that Melinda is very experien...ced and familiar with Illinois real estate law. But what was the most pleasant finding was the fact that once a contact is signed, she is fast to follow-up, goes above and beyond when complications arise, and they did. Even though the first attempt to sell my condo failed, Melinda, who I am sure spent far more hours of follow-up than is normally required, continued to be patient and supportive until I was finally able to secure a deal that eventually closed. Since I live abroad, everything had to be correctly and prepared in advance for the closing. I am so glad that I found Melinda, whom I trusted fully, and she did not disappoint.

Melinda was absolutely incredible to work with. My fiancé and I are first time home buyers that received a referral to Melinda from Lisa Gentile (of Cathy Bier real estate - Lisa was another phenomenal professional). From the first phone call to Melinda I knew we were in good hands. She was very calm... and took the time to explain the complicated legal and real estate jargon. She was very accessible and made us feel like her top priority, even though I'm sure she had plenty of other things to do and people to work with. Throughout the whole process, Melinda calmed my nerves and assured me that she was doing everything possible to make sure our deal went through. We closed on our house the other day and have had time to reflect on our home buying experience. Little did we know that the deal was close to falling through due to circumstances out of our hands, but Melinda was working tirelessly behind the scenes to make sure it all worked out (& it did) - and kept me calm throughout the whole process! I cannot say enough great things about Melinda. I will recommend her to any of my friends or family that need a real estate attorney in the future. Melinda was an absolute joy to work with and I cannot thank her enough for making our home buying a relatively calm endeavor. She is simply the best!
