Jean was a Godsend. My husband and I hired her to handle both the sale of our NY house and the purchase of a NJ house. She saw us through a year’s worth of delays and headaches caused by very difficult buyers. Despite it all, Jean was the consummate professional and she never complained and was never pushy. With poise and grace, she managed tense and challenging situations with another attorney to resolve matters in our favor.
