Testimonials

"I generally don't like to have to follow up on (ie: chase for info) or BE followed up on regarding my short sale files...and I totally appreciate that neither of these things happen here at LepLap...I get regular updates without having to ask which is a huge plus! This means people are doing their jobs and doining them well. I'm low maintenance when my standards are met, which really isn't asking a lot more than just what I said above! Bar none one of the most responsive and proactive short sale negotiation firms I've worked with.  Thanks!"

"I just wanted to tell you that I never thought I would be able to enjoy a contracts law class.  You did a great job keeping it very interesting and informative.  If they do an evaluation, I will be sure to give you some great feedback. Thank You!"

"Attended an excellent seminar the other day at the beautiful Wachusett Village Inn in Westminster, MA on Short Sales and Foreclosures presented by Daniel Balkun of the Law Office of Lepizzera and Laprocina and Michael Dutra of Shamrock Financial Corporation. Not only was the information delivered to the Realtor audience very timely and practical, but the presentation itself was so interesting that many attendees stayed beyond the scheduled time-frame to ask pertinent follow-up questions that applied directly to important legal and financial issues concerning several of their current listings. Kudos to the entire roster of speakers and a special thank you to L & L Marketing and Events Director Shana Boyer for the great package of seminar materials provided to all who participated. Nice job!"

"Shana,

Please extend my sincere thanks to all the presenters at this morning's Short Sale Seminar (Westminster, MA).  I have been selling real estate for twenty years, which means I have attended lots of seminars and continuing education classes, and without reservation, this was one of the best prepared, most informative and well presented two hours of education I have experienced.  I went into the seminar scared and skeptical about the short sale process, and walked out empowered.  Great job done by all."

To our negotiator Colleen Palmisano:

"We sincerely want to tell you...Thank you for your kind words, they help more than you know.  This has been the worst time in our almost 37 years of marriage and having someone who is genuinely kind and helpful working on our behalf is wonderful."

Best Regards,

"The short sale seminar presented to the Cape Cod and Islands MLS was terrific.  I have taken a couple classes previously, and they only touched the surface of this subject.  Your company presented an A to Z guideline on the specific items surrounding short sales, and made the process clear and concise, and easy to understand.  The fundamentals of short sales can be complex, and to a Realtor, sometimes a bit legal in nature.  Our job is to provide information and resources to our buyers and sellers, and this seminar made the concepts so much clearer to explain, and look professional to our clients.  The handouts and material compiled for us are a great source for future reference, and I have passed some of the criteria and fine points to clients who, in reality, are possible short sale sellers.  Again, thanks for the thorough, and well designed course, and most important, a resource for future business."

"In all of my years in the mortgage industry, I have yet to find a law firm that can even compete with the excellent service and efficient process which Lepizzera and Laprocina possess.  Whether it’s closing a loan at a client’s home in the middle of no-where or walking those people who are experiencing hardship through their legal options there is no other company out there which I would feel comfortable working side by side with.  They are truly a full service law firm and for that I am extremely thankful."

"It is with great pleasure that I pause to gather my thoughts and enthusiastically recommend Mr. Chris Depalo. as an attorney to any person(s) or business in need of legal services.  Undoubtedly failed from the start, I shall attempt herein to convey in print those often “intangibles” that characterize an exceptional professional encounter—one that I had the pleasure to experience recently with Mr. Depalo. 

After our initial introductions via the serendipitous result of networking through an expert realtor we share, I knew that my title and closing needs would be individually crafted and expertly tailored to achieve my specific goals.  Immediately, Chris distinguished himself from a myriad of Real Estate Attorneys soliciting my business in that he actually invited me to his office such that we might discuss my pursuit of finding a solid closing attorney in greater detail! 

Early in the consultation I found his patient approach devoid of aggressive selling techniques all too common in his profession.  Equally comforting was his esoteric knowledge of the currently emerging lending procedures that affect the both of us redefining the rules that once governed the gratuitous banking industry.  In short, Chris’s genuine demeanor coupled with the individualized attention I received assuaged any reservations I might have had associated with committing to one closing attorney.  

Critics often argue that privately meeting with potential clients is time consuming if not anachronistic for Chris Depalo willingly devoted to ascertain my long term business development itinerary that he earned my trust and more importantly my business.  In closing, Chris Depalo personifies the best in the legal profession.  It is my strong conviction that as he continues to demonstrate what can only be characterized as atypical behavior within his profession the practice will not only serve him well as he accumulates devoted clientele, but indeed pay dividends well into the future as accolades continue."

"One of my borrowers was a 2nd shift line worker at a local plastics company. His wife (and co-borrower) was a 1st shift receptionist with a job 45 minutes away from home. The only opportunity they had to close their loan before our rate-lock expired was at 12:00am on a weeknight. Lepizzera and Laprocina handled the signing like they do all my others-- on time and accurately."

"I have not done business with you YET but I have spent the last couple of months in your continuing education classes and I have to say that they were the most useful, timely and informative classes I have taken within the last 19 years of paying for and sitting through continuing education (with a very few exceptions). Bravo and Thank you...I won't forget." 

--Cindy Morrison


“Thank you for yesterday (continuing education class held with Shamrock Financial) – It was more than worth the drive to Dedham!!!! Very informative!”

"I am happy to respond to your request for feedback on the short sale seminar in Hyanis. It is definitely a topic of high interest, so that is great. It was the 2nd class I have taken with Dan Balkin through Leplap and probably the 3rd or 4th class on related topics, for  example REO's etc.

Informative definitely, may sound more intimidating than it actually is? Hopefully a smoother transaction by now.

 I certainly brought the Laprocina firm on board, when given a short sale listing, soon after Dan's class at our office. This was most likely back in 2008. Great cooperation from Paul to the extent of meeting with sellers on a week-end and often calling me at home in the evenings.

Thank you Shamrock for every effort you put into the seminar on every level. You went above and beyond. A wonderful experience all around and I  know the Cape Cod Realtors were enlightened and pleased with the event!"

"I found the webinar (Help for Homeowners In Distress) to be informative. I have been doing Short Sales and listing foreclosures and consider myself to be experienced in these areas. But I still learn something new whenever I listen to these types of events.
