This office serves clients in real estate transactions of all types. I also assist clients with estate planning for everyone, including the GLBT community, and represent Illinois condominium associations as needed. I work with clients in Chicago and all over the Chicagoland area, including Wilmette, Skokie, Morton Grove, Plainfield, Wheaton, Glencoe, Lake Forest, Naperville, Oak Park, Winnetka, Des Plaines, Orland Park, Berwyn, Carol Stream, Arlington Heights, Crystal Lake, Barrington, Palatine, Park Ridge, South Holland, Park Forest and more.

My goal is to give each and every client personal, friendly and competent service at a reasonable price.

My legal background includes working for a major Chicago developer and working for a boutique firm in their real estate division. I am also a licensed Illinois real estate broker and a landlord of a three flat building in Rogers Park.
 
I work with all different types of clients, including first-time buyers, buyers of second (or third!) homes, all sellers and the gay, lesbian and transgender community.

My real estate blog is below. Please make sure to check back on a regular basis to check out what's new. I update my blog about once a week.

Is Your Estate Plan in Order?
Do you have a will? Powers of attorney for Property and Durable Power of Attorney (for Healthcare)? When's the last time you reviewed beneficiaries on your life insurance and retirement plans? Do you know what will happen when you die?

If you don't have answers to these questions, you may want to consider rethinking your plans. According to the AARP, 40% of people over 50 don't have a will. 55% of that group doesn't have a Durable Power of Attorney.

If you have children, you need to consider what would happen you them if both you and your spouse die. Do you have a guardian and a trust set up for them, if they are minors?

If you don't have documents, or if you haven't updated them in the past five years, or if you have had significant life changes (death of spouse, new child, divorce) consider doing that today.
