“Rachell is the BEST. She helped us with the purchase and the sale of our first condo in Chicago. She is easy to work with, provides sound advice, is direct, responsive, and gets it done. She facilitated a virtual closing for us on our sale and made it *as easy as possible* for 2 overwhelmed parents of young kids, juggling everything that goes into moving! I can't recommend her enough.”

“We have known Rachell for over 30 years, and she has been our "go-to" family attorney for over 20 years. Rachell is honest, trustworthy, and knowledgeable. She is quick with returning calls, and willing to go the extra mile to ensure you understand everything. We just added trusts to our family portfolio, and we look forward to using her again in the future. Rachell is the best!”

“Rachell is awesome to work with. I have used her several times for buying, selling and even re-zoning a property. Once hired, I didn’t have to do anything other than sign a few documents and she did the rest. I highly recommend Rachell for any real estate needs.”

“Very personable and helpful. Rachell is intent on getting things done your way with grace, and she can be fierce when needed. I will definitely recommend her to others.”

“Rachell is terrific! She is always available by whatever means of communication you should choose. She is measured in her approach - so if you have a little tantrum about something insignificant (like me), she can talk you off the cliff and help you see the larger picture. And she does so kindly. Highly, HIGHLY recommended!”

“I found Rachell through a Yelp! search and was impressed by all of the positive and helpful reviews. She made the handling of my time-sensitive and complicated house closing in Evanston a non-stressful and positive experience…When I was getting overwhelmed and vexed with…the processes, Rachell was a calm and steady voice in a seemingly unending storm..When the time finally arrived for our closing meeting with the buyers…I was not able to attend the meeting…Rachell attended the meeting on my behalf…Rachell was a fantastic advocate at the meeting and she ensured the closing went through completely and accurately. She then delivered my large proceeds check back to my house and hand-delivered it to me…she only reaffirmed the truly exemplary, professional and wonderful person and attorney that she is.”

“We hired Rachell almost a year ago and became immediately impressed at her professionalism and experience in dealing with the different aspects of our real estate transactions…Rachell is extremely accessible and always available to answer a question via e-mail, phone or texting…My husband trusts her inherently and does not even attend our closings, giving her power of attorney to complete most of our real estate transactions.”

“Rachell has been a great attorney whether we were closing on our condo or writing our estate plan. You’ll never have to chase her around with multiple phone calls or e-mail exchanges - once you talk about, she’s on it and you won’t have to follow up to get results. She will come in, get the job done, and be down-to-earth while she’s doing it.”

“We love you. Seriously, I never would have imagined that we could have been so lucky to have such a good person for our attorney.”

“Rachell, if there was ever an anti-thesis of the evil lawyer stereotype, you would be it! Through both mortgage closings and both attempts at a parking spot purchase you were consistently available, professional, courteous and organized! As I stated before, it is truly a breath of fresh air to finally work with someone that is not only great at what they do, but also does it with such heartfelt dedication that it appears almost effortless.”

“Rachell was referred to me by my Realtor…I can’t say enough that I am so thankful that I used Rachell for my real estate transaction…did an excellent job every step of the way and this transaction had more than a few hurdles…I was across the country the whole time…To say that Rachell is excellent is an understatement…In addition to Rachell’s knowledge, professionalism and sharpness, I appreciated her personality as well.”

“When my wife and I found a home for sale we needed a lawyer to write up a contract…We contacted Rachell and within minutes we were at her home going over the contract which we brought to the Sellers that morning. Thanks to her prompt assistance, our bid was accepted…She is very personable and easy to talk to. She gained our trust immediately.”

“I recommend Rachell Horbenko to all of my real estate clients. I have worked with several real estate attorneys and her level of service far surpasses all of them. Clients are always informed promptly about developments in their real estate transaction. Sales go smoother and clients are better protected due to her extensive IL real estate law knowledge and experience. She is a pleasure to work with!”

“I am a home inspector and first met Rachell at a networking group. Since then, I have referred her many times to clients…My only regret is that my wife and I didn’t know Rachell when we bought our house. Rachell is smart, thorough, professional and a fun person to boot. I can fully and without reservation recommend Rachell for your real estate of estate needs. She is one classy lady.”
