I consider myself very fortunate to have found Kelly. During the process, she was able to explain everything so I could understand the process and the documents I was signing. When I found a home to buy I went back to Kelly.
Kelly helped me through several bumps in the process. Her experience and professionalism made a potentially stressful process go quite smoothly. When issues arose, she either dealt with them or notified me so I could make educated decisions. The whole process was completed with remarkably little effort on my part. Without reservation I recommend Kelly.
When I bought my condo a few years ago, a friend recommended Kelly Gallagher for my closing attorney. She handled my closing perfectly! Since then I've refinanced twice, and both times my first phone call was to Kelly. She handled every step of the closing process professionally, and always returned my calls and emails promptly. I give her my highest recommendation.
Kelly Gallagher is by far the best attorney I have ever worked with. She is knowledgeable, detailed in her work, kind and prompt with both her responses and paperwork. Kelly clearly explained everything to me during my home buying process as well as being extremely patient with me as a first time home buyer. Kelly also worked really well with my real estate agent, the selling agent, and the mortgage company.
I have (and will continue) to recommended Kelly to friends and co-workers and would definitely recommend the Law Office of Kelly J. Gallagher to anyone needing an attorney.
