Wish I could give Ms Delaney a 10 Star rating. Totally professional and handled my legal matter with competence and ease. Thank you!
Joe C. recently represented me in buying my condo. It was an extremely stressful time between the purchasers experiencing delays in obtaining their mortgage and an old judgment on my property that was paid off but never removed from the official records. When the purchasers tried to obtain last minute credits at their final walk-through, Joe completely dropped the hammer and called them out on their BS. We closed that afternoon. It was a true pleasure to see the buyer's attorney with his tail between his legs at the closing table!
