Real Estate Law
Flat Fee
Published Work
700+ Transactions. One Attorney.
I’ve closed $54 million in Illinois real estate since 2014. Residential purchases, investment acquisitions, seller-side closings, evictions, short sales, wholesale assignments, and LLC formations across Cook, DuPage, Kane, Will, Lake, and the surrounding counties.
Most real estate attorneys in the Chicago market still bill hourly. You call, they bill. You email a question about your closing timeline, they bill. Three weeks later there’s a line item for a conversation you barely remember having. I looked at that model and decided there was a better way to run a practice.
Every service on this website has a published flat fee. Seller-side closings are free because the title company covers my fee at the closing table. I put the pricing on the website because you should be able to compare my fees against anyone else’s before you ever pick up the phone.
“The title companies who send me the most referrals have watched me close hundreds of transactions without a surprise invoice. The investors who come back deal after deal know exactly what it costs every time. That’s the practice I wanted to build, and that’s the practice I built.”
I answer the phone. I explain what’s happening in your deal in plain English. When a contract needs modification, I walk you through what changed and why it matters to your bottom line. I’ve handled everything from a nervous first-time buyer’s condo purchase to complex multi-unit investment portfolios, and I bring the same level of attention to every file regardless of deal size.
I also publish academic research, hold a bug bounty in cybersecurity for NATO utilized software, and wrote a 28-hour guide on internet privacy that involved filing 650 deletion requests from my own accounts. I mention this because it tells you something about how I approach problems: I go deep, I do the work myself, and I don’t stop until the thing is done right.

“Justin made a difficult and stressful period so much easier. He helped us understand each step of the process, and translated legal requirements and documents into language we were able to readily understand. I’ll absolutely be using Justin for any real estate transactions going forward.”
“Working with Justin was like working with a great friend. His knowledge and experience is extensive and he’s able to explain complex issues in simple understandable terms. Justin has a knack for creativity and out of the box thinking. The value he offers far exceeds his already reasonable fees.”
“Justin evicted a tenant of mine in record time. It’s unheard of and I just did not think it was possible to get this tenant out so fast. Very humane and landlord empathetic eviction lawyer. His answers are clear and concise.”
