“I would highly recommend Michael Freeling, and he just helped me with our Firm’s purchase of our new building in Boca Raton (so now we can pay rent to ourselves), as we are increasingly very busy with new clients in our Boca office that we needed our own building. I have purchased real estate before, and nothing compares to the professional, thorough work that Michael did on my behalf. Every detail, every issue was handled, proactively. Michael communicated with the excellent real estate broker, the title company, the tenants, everybody. He made sure everything went as smoothly as possible – when we had a deal that could have been tripped up by a number of issues. This was the most professional experience I have ever had with any real estate lawyer, and Michael is such a great guy. He’s bright and thorough because that’s the type of lawyer he is. The client service and communication was so superior because that’s the type of person Michael is… from start to finish. A+ Thanks again!”
