Our Practice
We provide skilled and experienced representation in matters involving:
- Real estate law. We represent buyers and sellers at all stages of residential real estate transactions, from the negotiation of contracts and agreements to closing. We review and prepare all documents that are required to complete a real estate deal, including the purchase contract, deed, mortgage, note and other financing instruments. We also prepare residential lease agreements.
- Tenant rights. We represent the rights of tenants throughout the Chicago, Illinois, area. We can help you get back a security deposit, including any owed interest. In some cases we may be able to get additional damages.
- Foreclosure defense. We can help you stop foreclosure by protecting your rights in court to save your home. We will raise all defenses to foreclosure appropriate to your situation.
- Short sales. We will help you understand the benefits and consequences of a short sale of your home. In some cases, a short sale is in both parties' interests — for you and the lender. We will act as your advocate with your lender, working to achieve the best terms possible for your particular situation.
