Responsive, Knowledgeable & Communicative

Michael was recommended to me through my real estate agent. I purchased a condo in Chicago and live in California. Michael and his team provided excellent service and were there for each step along the way. They attended the closing for me so I did not have to fly back to Chicago. I would use Mic...hael & his team again. I highly recommend.

Excellent service!!!

I found Michael through yelp and decided to go with him due to his amazing reviews. I am glad I did because not only did he make sure everything was taken care for my closing, but also was easily accessible when needed.

Easy To Work With And Always Accessible

Our experience was positive with no issues. Hubby and I were assigned to work with attorney John M. Aylesworth on our closing and he was thorough and responsive. He answered all of our questions, reviewed the documents and communicated everything to us in layman's terms. It was a great experience. P...lus, he's a nice guy. And that always matters to me. I highly recommend this firm.

A Fantastic Experience

My wife and I worked with Michael for our first condo purchase, which we closed on April 2020, and we couldn't have had a better attorney for the process. As first-time homeowners, Michael's breadth of knowledge and experience was invaluable. He not only took the time to walk through any questions we... had, but he provided a lot of guidance on the requirements and to-dos that come with purchasing a home and was extremely prompt with any communication throughout the process. Additionally, we had the unfortunate luck to have our closing occur while in the midst of the shelter in place order due to COVID-19. Michael made sure to inform us of the safety recommendations for closing, gave us the different options to choose from, and worked with us to make sure that closing was a seamless and safe process for everyone involved. It could not have gone smoother. I would highly recommend working with Michael for any real estate purchase or sales process! You will not be disappointed.

Condo Purchase

We recently worked with John Aylesworth to purchase a condo, closed on 4/10/2020, very pleased with the process. There's quite a few back and forth negotiations with the seller, another complication was seller credit at closing, but John took care all the steps. I appreciate his attention to details,... highly recommend to other buyers/sellers.
