About

I started in this business when I was 18 years old.  I was a receptionist at a mid-size Chicago lawfirm and then worked as a legal secretary for a solo practictioner, and a real estate paralegal at a large firm in Cincinnati, Ohio.  I started law school at Kent College of Law in Chicago when our son was 3 months old.  While working full time and finishing law school at Salmon P. Chase College of Law/Northern Kentucky University our twins were born.  After passing the bar in Ohio I worked as an associate attorney at same large lawfirm in the real estate department.  After a couple of years, my family moved back to Illinois where our 4th child was born.  I am licensed in Illinois and Ohio and my vast experience in both Illinois and Ohio has always been in real estate.  I pride myself on returning calls and emails daily.  My clients speak directly with me and not a paralegal or secretary.  Buying and selling a home can be very stressful and I feel I go above and beyond to assist my clients with their real estate transactions.

We hired Joanne to handle the closing of the sale of our condo, based upon the recommendation of our agent. We are so happy that we did. Closing the sale in the middle of Covid-19, while preparing to move overseas, proved to be much easier and less stressful than it would have been otherwise. Not only is Joanne extremely professional, knowledgeable, and great with communication, she also was available to lend a sympathetic ear and encouragements as we struggled with securing transportation for our pets to Europe. Joanne also helped to move up the closing date, which really helped us to control our anxieties regarding the move. In short, I wholeheartedly recommend Joanne, do not hesitate to hire her to handle you closing, it will provide you with the peace of mind that anyone needs during selling or buying a home.

Joanne was incredibly thorough and responsive. We used her for our first home buying process and she explained everything and made us feel very comfortable. It was clear that she was our advocate and looking out for our best interest. Joanne is extremely experienced and competent. We will use her any time we move!

Joanne was the most responsive attorney I have encountered. She kept me informed as we approached the closing in which I was buyer. At the closing, Joanne was there assertively looking out for my best interests as there were issues on the HUD. She had looked over the paperwork, explained it to me before I signed and Left me feeling confident about all the paperwork. I was impressed at the end, Joanne commented, this doesn't end here. She said if I had any questions about anything I signed making sure I had all the copies of the paperwork, I should call and she would handle it. Highly recommend her from my experience with Joanne as my attorney buying a condo in Chicago.
