Great lawyer

Don has been fantastic to work with. We worked with Don for our home purchase in 2016 and again for a home sale in 2020. He’s incredibly proactive and thoughtful throughout the entire process. He takes the time to explain how everything works and makes sure to advocate for you throughout. Sadly I mov...ed out of Illinois or I know I’d be working with him again!

Great attorney

Don was a huge asset when we bought our new construction home in the suburbs. He gave us advice on a few things not directly related to the real estate transaction, and he seemed like he genuinely cared about helping us. He was always extremely responsive and an extremely clear / concise communicator.... We would recommend him to any friend or family member!

Job well done

The sale was challenging, as the lender delayed our close twice, as well as other issues unrelated to my attorney. Their group kept me informed at all time. I highly recommend this firm.

As good as it gets

Overall, a very positive experience. While no real estate purchase is ever smooth, Donald's team did all they could to take the burden away from us. When there was a mixup on closing dates, they coordinated w all parties and lenders to ensure everyone was aligned. And when our buyer's lender dragg...ed their feet at the end, this team pushed and pushed to get answers and get both our properties closed on time. I would recommend this group for any future real estate deals.

Home sale

Don is a terrific person and an excellent lawyer. He holds himself with the utmost professionalism and calming demeanor. Got us through a really trying time on our home sale and we couldn’t have dont it without him. Highly recommended.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
