In January 2012, I founded The Law Offices of Lisa Gagliano Bernstein, which is a sole practitioner firm specializing in the fields of real estate, estate planning, probate, and family law. I infuse each case I handle with a solid work ethic, advanced writing skills, practical application of the law and personal client service. My previous practice taught me to aggressively but strategically help clients navigate their way through the legal process and how to efficiently and promptly respond to my clients. My experience allows me to draft, argue, and respond to both simple and complex legal documents. I have a proven ability to produce under tight deadlines and due to my experience in many different fields of law, I'm well-equipped to manage a wide range of matters.. Real Estate:-Represent clients in residential real estate purchases and sales, including review of contract of sale, negotiate inspection issues, determine compliance with contract, assist with lender requirements, evaluate evidence of title, perform title exam, clear title exceptions, and attend closing.. Estate Planning:-Consult with clients to determine estate planning goals, draft living trusts, wills, and powers of attorney, and fund living trusts with real property, stocks, and life insurance.. Probate:-Handle probate court matters, and prepare documents to open, administer and close probate estates.. Family Law:-Draft and present divorce petitions and judgments, negotiate divorce settlements, and appear in court to argue motions to modify child support and other post-judgment divorce issues. I handle related and unrelated adoption actions by drafting and presenting petitions for adoption and judgment orders in court, acquiring consent from biological parent, and obtaining certificates of adoption.

I started in this business when I was 18 years old.  I was a receptionist at a mid-size Chicago lawfirm and then worked as a legal secretary for a solo practictioner, and a real estate paralegal at a large firm in Cincinnati, Ohio.  I started law school at Kent College of Law in Chicago when our son was 3 months old.  While working full time and finishing law school at Salmon P. Chase College of Law/Northern Kentucky University our twins were born.  After passing the bar in Ohio I worked as an associate attorney at same large lawfirm in the real estate department.  After a couple of years, my family moved back to Illinois where our 4th child was born.  I am licensed in Illinois and Ohio and my vast experience in both Illinois and Ohio has always been in real estate.  I pride myself on returning calls and emails daily.  My clients speak directly with me and not a paralegal or secretary.  Buying and selling a home can be very stressful and I feel I go above and beyond to assist my clients with their real estate transactions.

Every adult should have an estate plan, especially parents, unmarried couples, and single people of retirement age. A good estate plan brings peace of mind. Peace of mind that you have taken care of the people who depend on you and made things easier for your loved ones. Peace of mind that your important personal decisions will be respected when you are no longer able to communicate them. Peace of mind that you have minimized confusion, disputes, delays, expenses, taxes, and more if you suddenly lose capacity or die.. Exploring these topics and making decisions can be difficult, especially if you have not administered a loved one's estate or trust, have never experienced serious illness firsthand, or have a small number of trusted individuals in your inner circle.. Patrick uses clear communication, patient listening, and years of experience to educate, advise, and empower his clients. Our law firm's step-by-step process ensures that clients' estate plans are comprehensive and thorough without overwhelming them with too many decisions at once.. In addition to (1) preparing wills, trusts, and estate planning for Illinois residents, Patrick can also help with (2) preparing and negotiating premarital agreements for Illinois residents, (3) advising trustees in the uncontested administration of Illinois trusts, and (4) advising beneficiaries of Illinois trusts concerning their rights and reviewing trust administration documents.
