Real Estate Sale

I just closed on the sale of my town home, which took about 3 months due to mortgage difficulties. Michael was outstanding in providing guidance and quickly reviewing and updating any documents that would expedite the matter. He kept me informed on all developments and was available when I called, ...or received prompt call backs. I would definitely use Michael on my next transaction and highly recommend his services.

Great R.E. Attorney

Mike was excellent and made sure I was comfortable with each step of the process. He was willing to operate at an advanced pace for some of the "easier" aspects of the transaction while still taking the time explain some of the more complex components, such as the tax implications, in which he was we...ll-versed. This was my first real estate transaction and I left feeling like he raised appropriate concerns with the sellers attorney and represented my interests well.

Excellent Attorney

We have used Michael twice for our home closings and both times he has served us well. He gives good advice, explains things well, and is always timely with communication. We highly recommend him!

Mike For President!

I have been a real estate agent for over three years now and, when given the opportunity, refer all of my clients to Mike. He is accessible, thorough, timely, aggressive, and keeps all parties in the loop; not to mention he has a fantastic sense of humor. I have never had a client who has worked with... Mike have anything negative to say about the experience. When involved in a real estate transaction, the first thing I want to know is "who is/are the attorney/attorneys involved?". As an agent, I want each and every deal to be as smooth, quick, and problem-free as possible- I've seen several transactions nearly fall through because of the legal representation and I know, with Mike, that is never an issue. Two thumbs up!
