Practice Areas

Do I really need an attorney for a real estate closing? If you are selling or buying a home, legal representation is prudent. Real estate contracts contain instructions, contingencies, and deadlines that must be fulfilled, such as obtaining financing approval or selling a current home. If these conditions are not met, and extensions have not been requested, there could be serious negative consequences. Avoid the stress of surprises during the purchase or sale of your home. Contact an Illinois real estate lawyer at Madsen, Sugden & Gottemoller for prompt and professional service.
