Questions From Plainfield Clients
Can you coordinate with my financial advisor
Yes. We often work alongside advisors and CPAs to align trusts, beneficiary designations, and tax considerations.
Do you only help with Plainfield real estate or other towns too
We regularly handle closings for homes in Plainfield as well as other parts of Will, DuPage, Kane, and Cook Counties. Our Plainfield experience means we know local customs and title companies, but we can follow your move wherever it takes you in the Chicago area. You get one point of contact for contracts, questions, and closing.
Can you help with new construction in Plainfield
Yes. Builder contracts around Plainfield often look different from standard forms, and timelines can stretch. We review terms, explain deadlines, and watch for warranty and punch-list language so you understand your rights if delays or issues come up.
Do you handle Will County probate if my parent lived in Plainfield
We do. We file in the Will County probate court, manage deadlines, and coordinate with heirs who may live in other parts of Illinois or out of state. Our goal is to reduce trips to court and keep the process as simple as possible during an already hard season.
Do you offer virtual meetings
Yes. Many Plainfield clients prefer Zoom or phone for convenience. We also meet in person when requested.
