What I'm looking for

I’m looking to support real estate transactions end-to-end—closing operations, title review, and compliant document drafting—while partnering closely with clients, boards, and stakeholders to resolve issues quickly and keep every process accurate.

I’m a detail-oriented legal professional with over 20 years of experience as an Attorney and Paralegal, specializing in real estate law. I focus on providing comprehensive support in complex transactions through due diligence, drafting, and practical problem-solving.

In my current role as a Closing Agent, I oversee residential cooperative and condominium closings—scheduling, document preparation, compliance with governing board requirements, and post-closing review. I review, log, and maintain closing documentation across internal systems (OnBase, Domecile) and coordinate with building boards, managing agents, and shareholders to resolve transactional issues efficiently.

Previously, as a Real Estate Closer/Paralegal, I supported all stages of transactions, handled title review and clearing issues, coordinated bank wires, prepared closing binders, and drafted contracts, deeds, escrow letters, and ACRIS-related documents. Earlier, I served as an Attorney for more than two decades—advising clients on acquisitions, dispositions, leasing, and cooperatives/condominiums, representing boards, and acting as a transfer agent from application intake through closing documents.
