We currently reside outside of the US and we found John on AVVO. Right from the start, we had the feeling that we can trust John. He was very attentive during all our conversations and demonstrated ability to explain things with simple words without creating false expectations. We established a great working relationship and John helped us with two real estate cases in IL that many lawyers did not want to work on due the their complexity. John is flexible and very easy to work with. His sense of humor, professionalism and honesty make him not only an excellent lawyer, but also an excellent person. I would highly recommend John for expatriates, foreign nationals that have property or want to purchase property in the US as well as anyone that needs help in the areas John is an expert
John helped us with the purchase of our new home and did an excellent job. He was extremely thorough in explaining all the nuances of buying a home and helped us meet a tight closing deadline. He even caught something on our plat survey during our closing in the contract that could have been a big deal down the line if it had gone unnoticed. We would highly recommend him for closing on a home.
I asked for a consultation with John and he was quick to respond and give me a call. Even though I did not end up hiring him, he was extremely professional while giving me his take on my situation. Had things been a little different I definitely would have hired John.
I contracted John to help construct and update my will over the past few years. Excellent and thorough attention to details and his execution Is very professional. I feel secure knowing things were done correctly and in my best interest.
John is an excellent lawyer, a domain expert in every aspect of real estate law. He sets you straight with his legal knowledge, takes time to explain to you what you may not want to hear, and protects you from repercussions and liability. He treated me like a million dollar client for a small legal assignment. Honestly, if you want a solid real estate lawyer who treats you well and protects you like a super hero with his legal expertise, don't look anywhere else. I only wish I'd discovered him sooner.
Our Building HOA had a unit owner who owed the HOA a backlog of monthly dues and special assessments. The unit was listed for sale and John was instrumental in making sure our HOA received these funds at closing, especially thru some tricky and difficult scenarios. This was not a cut and dry case. John was easy to work with and on top of every change. The HOA was made whole again.
John handled the legalities of my recent home purchase. He kept me informed every step of the way, via email or phone. He pursued areas I didn’t know enough to know needed to be pursued, was tenacious in looking up relevant town statutes etc, and was able to get my final cost reduced by several thousand dollars. Even the attorney for the seller, at the closing, told me I had a very good lawyer.
Mr Brennock made LLC and title transfer for me. I really appreciate his quick respond , result and reasonable price. I felt he is truly trustful lawyer. Thank you !!
John is an amazing real estate attorney. When it became clear that a coop deal wasn't quite right, he made us feel supported when backing out of the deal, and when we stayed with him through our second purchase, he only charged half of his fees, where he could have charged full price for both! He didn't charge us for POA services either, as we required these during our sale as I was out of the country and needed my husband to sign for me. He is responsive, decisive and comprehensive- and totally on top of the law. Highly recommended!
Highly recommend John! I had a dispute with my landlord over lease renewal terms and had called two places who said I was SOL. Called John and he knows the RLTO so well he was able to negotiate a win for me. Very responsive, competent, and friendly too. Call John, you'll be glad you did.
