Client Testimonials

“We recently worked with Paul Lehman of Fox Title and Tom Rigby and his team at The Real Estate Law Firm on the sale of an investment lot in Naperville.  Paul, Tom and the entire team were top notch in assisting with the process, from the contract signing right through the closing.  Despite several obstacles in the closing process, including dealing with an easement agreement and several purchaser related delays, Fox and The Real Estate Law Firm were consummate professionals and moved the transaction to a successful closing.  We also found their fees to be reasonable and fair and despite the complexities of the transaction, The Real Estate Law Firm held to their original quoted fee structure. We own other residential investment properties and will be returning to Fox Title and The Real Estate Law Firm for future closings.  Precise, courteous, professional and fair!”

“Thank you and your team at Real Estate Law Firm for guiding me through the sale of my home. Your team was professional and on point from start to finish. Living out of state, it was important for me to have great communication and attention to detail throughout the process. They kept me informed every step of the way, in fact, I would say they over communicated, which was very refreshing!    Without hesitation, I can highly recommend the Real Estate Law Firm for a professional and painless experience for your next business transaction.”

“To those of you who are seeking legal counsel and assistance in your real estate transactions, we are pleased to recommend The Real Estate Law Firm.  We just completed the purchase of a home in Batavia, and we engaged the services of Tom Rigby and Jessica Cadwallader from The Real Estate Law Firm.  They make a great team, and we couldn’t be more pleased with their support and guidance.   Notably, Jessica was both prompt and thorough in her communications with us, the Seller’s attorney, and our real estate agent…both pre and post-closing.  Jessica’s follow-up was not limited to the normal work day and her approach was both personal and professional.  Tom was wonderful at closing. We appreciated his patience in explaining (in simple terms) the mound of paperwork that accompanies any real estate transaction and his diligence in calling out the need for some important edits in the final contracts.  We never felt as though we were only one of their many clients but were left feeling that we were among their most important.   We would certainly recommend their services and support for your transaction.”

Tom, Jessica and team members were amazing to work with!!! This was my first, buying a house on my own. Jessica was a life-saver at every turn. She answered my questions and concerns promptly and steered me in the right direction at all times. Tom working long hours each day, took the time to explain things to me. He's explains things clearly in terms that are easy to understand. Up to the last minute at closing Jessica, said the final numbers were not correct and made sure the loan officer and his team rectified it! Thank you all for a job well done!!! I will recommend you to anyone needing your legal counsel and know they are in good hands!!!

I am pleased to share my very positive comments regarding the Real Estate Legal Services provided by Mr. Tom Rigby and his team. Tom, Jessica and Kristen worked with me on both a Purchase and a Sale....during the somewhat frenzied period of mid to late 2021 in the Chicago and Geneva real estate markets.Tom Rigby and his firm were enthusiastically recommended to me by numerous people when I initially inquired about the best Real Estate Attorneys in the Geneva area. During the several meetings with various members of the Team I was clearly informed about the process, documentation I would be responsible to submit, overall timing of the critical events and how best to respond to questions submitted by the other parties involved.I am happy to report that both transactions were completed successfully.Interactions with Attorneys can be an anxious and stressful experience,if for no other reason, most of us are unfamiliar with the detailed technical aspects of buying and selling real estate...even if we have participated in the process before.It should be emphasized that working with large corporate law firmsadds a whole additional level of complexity, anxiety and cost. By contrast, the more medium sized structure of Tom Rigby's firm is able to provide experienced senior leadership, professional legal project staff for the day to day direction and client communication as well as a supporting group to execute the considerable minutiae which is a part of our legal system.Lastly, in my own experience, the outline of anticipated costs for all the parties involved in a residential real estate transaction is somewhat numbing. The Property Taxes collected, Trust Company charges, various fees from numerous other entities and the sorest pressure point... money contributed to satisfy a Purchaser's Request for this and that item are necessary but, draining. Of all those different amounts of money,Tom Rigby's Fees were the smallest number.Thank you...Tom, Jessica, Kristen and the rest of the team who ensured that both my sale and my purchase went according to your plan!D/D
