Kearney & Phelan Ltd

I have found a great real estate firm, and they will be handling all my real estate transactions from now on. Michael Phelan handled my property tax assessment appeals and reduced the property tax on all 3 properties I own… no small feat. Many of my friends are complaing about their increases this cycle — some doubled?! While I am not happy with the amount of tax I have to pay, I am also not crying this tri-​annual assessment period. Thanks again Michael.
I am a hands on guy — I will watch somebody making a repair and learn from them. Next time something breaks, I make the repair myself. I feel that life is a constant learning process and I like to soak up some of that knowledge when possible. However, I do not want to learn how to appeal my own taxes. The county stacks the deck against you in this process and I do not have unlimited free time. I am more than willing to pay a small percentage of my SAVINGS and go about my everyday life without this added aggravation. Nothing like the county trying to increase your property taxes 40% every assessment! I give Cook County a ½ star rating and this firm 5 stars. Taxes are high enough — time for the county to make some cuts like the rest of us.
This law firm is professional and knowledgeable in many areas. I will be using them to make some changes in my will, and if needed, for tenant/​landlord disputes.
Hope this helps others.
