Communication is everything!

Adam & his team do a great job managing transactions from start to finish - especially with making sure details aren't missed, and having great communication throughout the process, which is crucial. Also they are fun to work with and that makes the experience much better too! Highly recommend!

Amazing experience

I worked with Adam Gurney and his paralegal Sam Underwood on my recent sale. Not only were Adam and Sam incredibly responsive and available, but they helped me through any and all questions that my wife and I had. I would recommend Adam to anyone looking to purchase or sell their home, they were FA...NTASTIC!!

Adam represented my partner and I in negotiating our commercial lease. He was extremely helpful and always responsive. He definitely saved us a considerable amount of time and money in the process. Adam was also fantastic at explaining all the various clauses and what we should or should not accep...t. Negotiations included terminating one lease, starting a new lease, and also buildout of a new space. He made the process easy and I highly recommend him.

Highly recommended

Adam and his staff were instrumental in closing a difficult real estate transaction. They were able to navigate issues that prevented the sale from closing as expected and offered much needed advice and guidance in choosing the best course of action towards completing the transaction. The office wa...s very quick in responding to new developments and was efficient in making sure all requirements were met appropriately to meet our deadlines. Highly recommended!

Attorney, Adam Gurney

We purchased a condo in the city of Chicago & who knew how hard it would be. We were the first to purchase in the building & this alone had its challenges. Adam & Samantha were very diligent making sure everything was getting done. It was a long process & it was very helpful to have Adam by our side.... Very detailed & professional.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
