Real Estate Attorney
Boutique Chicago attorneys helping buyers, sellers, and investors close cleanly — with practical, deal-focused advice and clear communication every step of the way. Mówimy po polsku.
High-touch counsel that keeps your deal moving.
We're a boutique firm by design. That means partner-level attention, fast answers, and practical advice that actually closes deals — not legal theater.
Responsive
Same-day responses are the rule, not the exception. You won't be waiting days to hear back during a live transaction.
Practical, deal-focused
We negotiate to close, not to win arguments. Expect clear recommendations and reasonable trade-offs that protect your bottom line.
Complex closings
Multi-unit, commercial, 1031 exchanges, entity-held property, FIRPTA, attorney-modification disputes — we've handled them.
Strong communication
You'll always know where your file stands. Plain-English updates, transparent billing, and no surprises at the closing table.
“The best lawyer hands down when you want to purchase a home. Very detailed and very quick response time. Purchased 3 homes with her and would never use anyone else!!!”
— Charlene R., Repeat Home Buyer“It was so great working with Hausner Law for my home sale. They were on top of everything and my home sale closing went smoothly. I think I had at least 2 calls every day and they always were eager to help and were quick to resolve any issues. Loved them so much. I am using them to buy my new house.”
— Trisha K., Seller & Returning BuyerCounsel built around your side of the deal.

A real estate deal has dozens of places to slip.
Most problems are quiet until they aren't. We spot them early — while there's still time to fix them.
Undisclosed property issues
Water damage, foundation cracks, prior unpermitted work — problems sellers hope you won't ask about.
Misrepresentations in the contract
Square footage, lot lines, HOA dues, or appliance condition that don't match what you were promised.
Poor contract terms
Vague contingencies, missing protections, and one-sided language that can cost you tens of thousands.
Closing delays
Lender curveballs, title clouds, missing condo questionnaires — all preventable with the right attorney watching.
Title and survey defects
Old liens, easements, and boundary issues that can quietly limit what you can do with your property.
Earnest money disputes
When deals fall through, the fight over earnest money is often where weak contracts cost real money.
A simple three-step process.
