Wonderful to Work With!
I was referred to the firm by my realtor. From our first introduction to the closing, Dennis and his team were fabulous to work with. They were detailed, accurate and timely in their responses. I would highly recommend Dennis and his team to anyone looking for a flawless real estate transaction!

Comprehensive Support from a Consummate Professional
I have now had the pleasure of working with Don on two real estate transactions. He is a consummate professional, efficient, measured, and takes the time to check-in not just on the tactics of the transaction but checks-in regarding how you're feeling about it along the way. He is smart, savvy, knowledgeable, and provides consistently exceptional service - even in very complex situations. I would highly recommend him to anyone who asks.

Excellent Service/Extremely Knowledgeable
Don and team were extremely helpful in navigating the permit and court process on an investment property I purchased with existing violations. They clearly explained steps and guided me through the process even during COVID times with delayed court dates, closed city offices and long inspection times. I would highly recommend Don and his team.

Best Real Estate Lawyer in Chicago
Don came highly recommended from a friend who worked in Chicago Real Estate for years. After working with him, I know why. Don was super responsive and patient. He was always available to answer our many questions, he is super personable, and we never felt rushed. He is also incredibly knowledgeable about real estate law, and provided some excellent guidance when our HOA was having trouble with an owner. I highly recommend Don and would hire him again for any real estate transaction. In short- Hire Don!!!

Top Notch Attorney
I have used Don for two closings now and could not be more impressed with him and his staff. The first one was very complicated and they were able to clear all of the hurdles for me. The second one had some sticky negotiations and Don walked me thru all of my options clearly and carefully. He helped me make very sound decisions that am very grateful for. He is always there to take your call and answer any questions, big or small. A great choice - and one that I will make again when the time comes.

Don goes the extra mile
Don and his team provide world class customer service. He has fought tooth and nail for our interests regarding a real estate matter that we were unaware of. He has done this twice for us in fact and serviced our needs at all hours of the day. Outside of his exceptional work, he is a genuinely good human and has the uncanny ability to connect with his clients in a personal way. We will always look to seek his counsel in future affairs.

Cool, competent, and in control!
Don helped us with the purchase and sale of our condo in downtown Chicago. He and his team were amazing! They took care of all the details and we were glad to have them on our side! We would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a real estate attorney.

prompt, helpful, and very friendly
Don and Chris were nothing but helpful when purchasing my first property. There was never an instance where I felt I was not able to get into contact with one of them. They both have endless amounts of knowledge and are dedicated to making the home-buying process as stress free as possible. I will be recommending them to all my contacts and will definitely be using their services when I buy my next property! Highly recommended

Want smooth sailing? Here's your Captain!
Don and his team helped us navigate through the selling process with unexpected ease, even with many external factors in play. Don and his team exemplify efficiency and professionalism. Their communication is inclusive, transparent and easy to follow. Everyone knew their role and the path to closing was smooth and timely as a result. Thank you Don!!

Outstanding
Don and his team were not only extremely knowledgeable on the topic of real estate, but also went above and beyond in their efforts on my behalf as a first time home buyer. I plan to retain Don again for any future real estate transactions.

Worth every penny!
I have worked with Don and his team on both the buyer side and the seller side. Both experiences were fantastic because the team had strong attention to detail, strong attention to my requests, and -- in both cases -- their guidance saved me money. Recommended!

Represented in Condo Purchase
Don and his team represented me in the purchase of my Chicago condo. I enjoyed my experience with Don and his team mainly due to the open and clear communication throughout the close process. Appreciated everything being explained to me in terms that were easy to understand. Additionally, the team was very organized staying on top of dates, having to file a couple of extensions. Overall, would definitely recommend Don and his team!

Wish I had used him for both buy and sell sides!
Don was great, on point and responsive throughout. MUCH better than our sell side representation that our broker recommended...I wish we had used him for both sides of our transaction, and certainly would in the future.

6 STARS Plus
We would rate Donald 6 stars if possible. We have been doing business with Donald for almost 10 years and he is the most ingenious and brilliant real estate attorney we have worked with. He saved us so much money that more than covered his reasonable fee. Donald is the most prompt attorney we have ever worked with. His intuitive style resolves all issues quickly and efficiently for his clients. He is the best lawyer one can ever hire!
