Michael H Wasserman

My wife and I would highly recommend Michael Wasserman. We hired him as our attorney for our closing. We must admit that we did not know what we will pass through, and fearing the unknown being first-time home buyers. He could not have been more patient and responsive to all of our endless questions ...and concerns. Mike had everything ready for next step and expedite the process. He was able to review the real-estate contract that was drawn up and suggest some very astute and pragmatic amendments that we only realised it when he pointed to. He expertly helped us navigate the home closing process, and really made everything clear and easy to understand for us, explaining every countless documents we needed to sign. We felt that we were very lucky having him as our attorney

Michael Wasserman handled a private sale of a condominium apartment in the West Loop. He is by far the best real estate attorney I have ever used. He was incredibly responsive, a very clear communicator, an able advisor and managed the entire transaction and closing remotely and electronically. ...He also is generous in supporting community charities which is quite admirable.

This was my first home purchase, and Mike had everything ready and resolved by the time of our originally-scheduled closing. I learned a lot from him. He had experience and was knowledgeable about the VA loan process, which made a big difference for me. He made the closing low-stress and I felt we...ll-represented. He was friendly, yet stern with other parties when he needed to be. I don't think I could have asked for a better experience. My Realtor was very pleased with him as well and felt that Mike's services were better than most he had seen. He was open and transparent from the beginning about his reasonable fees, and the nature and limits of his services.

We were referred to Michael through our Redfin real estate agent and he eagerly responded and accepted our inquiry about working with us to purchase our first home. Not only did I feel like his rate was very reasonable, but his service was above and beyond what I had expected it to be. Perhaps like... many people, I questioned the need to have a real estate attorney as I thought it was simply a way for another individual to "get his piece of the pie", but after working with Michael, I couldn't be happier that he was involved. He counseled me on several things that I was naive to as a first time home-buyer, and he patiently answered my questions as we went through the process. He was able to review the real-estate contract that was drawn up and suggest some very astute and pragmatic amendments that I was very pleased with. At closing, he sat right next to me and explained every single document that I was signing in a manner that made sense to both me and my wife and I really felt like he was "on my team". After speaking with friends and family that have gone through this process, I feel like we were lucky to have Michael to work with and even had both our real estate agent and the seller's agent mention that our closing process was one of the most stress-free and straight-forward that they'd been a part of. If you're looking for a thorough, no non-sense attorney to guide you through the process of purchasing real-estate, I'd definitely suggest working with Michael.
