Ed Reda is an outstanding attorney, and this is a great firm. Ed represented me on two real estate transactions recently, and I couldn't be happier with everything he did. He's very knowledgeable, experienced, accessible, fair and wise. I'm glad he was on my side--Great negotiator! Look no further than Ed Reda.

My wife and I worked with Ed on a unique contract - he was succinct, easy to work with and very knowledgeable. He quickly understood our situation and was able to work within our narrow time frame. As first-time home buyers, he was patient with our questions and was always available by phone and email. We highly recommend using Ed and his firm, and will be recommending him to our friends and family.

Ed helped me and my wife with our estate planning and we could not have had a better experience. He clearly laid out our options and gave recommendations for what he felt was our best course of action. We are confident that, in the unfortunate event that one or both of us should unexpectedly pass away, those trusted with executing our wishes will have the best possible means to do so. Can not recommend Ed highly enough!
Ed Reda was extremely nice. He handled everything perfectly and explained everything to me so I fully understood.

Richard Magnone was the best attorney I have ever had represent me in a real estate transaction. I’ve worked with quite a few attorneys and Richard was the most thorough and apt at negotiating terms. He caught quite a few errors from the other side and also fought for and negotiated additional terms and credits I requested even when I was being aggressive. Every concession we asked for - we got - mostly due to Richard’s negotiations. He was also able to explain all the legal jargon very simply and thoroughly. His staff was also very competent and helpful. I will definitely use Richard again and I fully recommend him.

Ed Reda is a stellar attorney, but more importantly, a kind and personable human being. It was a real pleasure to work with Ed to determine the best course of action regarding our estate planning. He was so knowledgeable and helpful as we navigated a sometimes difficult discussion to have around end of life decisions. We wouldn't hesitate to take other business back to Ed and his associates in the future.

Used Rich Magnone. He was professional, efficient, explained any questions I had. Favorite part was he fought for points that I didn't know was important. His words, I am not going to let you sign this because it's not typical. Love that. Great experience!

I needed to update my will and powers of attorney for property and health. I was referred to Ed Reda for his decades of experience. After listening to my wishes he offered a wealth of suggestions that fit what i wanted perfectly. My documents are now configured such that my executor will not have to deal with probate court and all the headaches that accompany going through that process. Ed Reda has allowed me to feel confident and worry free about the future. That is priceless.

There is absolutely no question that I would never enter into any real estate transaction without consulting Ed Reda. All of the legal anxiety is taken out of the equation because I know that Ed has my back. When Ed says he's going to do something, that something is done immediately - not hours or days later. Ed's years of legal experience have turned all of my real estate transactions into a seamless process. Ed Reda and Joy are an invaluable team and I consider myself lucky to have found them.

RCM is a very fine law firm. I have personally worked with Ed Reda, Rich Magnone, Ian Fidler, and Christine Travers. They are all very qualified. Christine Travers is extremely hard working and knowledgeable.

Even though I lived in Lake County I decided to use Ed Reda for my recent real estate transaction because he was well known for his expertise in this field. He was professional, compassionate, thorough during the house sale process. I also was impressed with his paralegal, Joy L. This team will have your best interest in mind and will give you solid advice and timely advice. I highly recommend Ed Reda and his legal team.

Ed Reda was my legal counsel for the sale of my home in Park Ridge. He was professional, responsive, knowledgeable, experienced; and most importantly, my advocate. Ed knew where to stand firm on certain issues and where to compromise to ensure the buyers were happy. His staff was efficient and courteous. We had to sign closing docs early and his office was more than accommodating. I would highly recommend using Reda Ciprian Magnone, LLC for your real estate dealings and transactions.

I was a seller represented by Ed Reda. Google reviewer Sergee I. was on the buyer’s side of my transaction. Ed’s representation of me was excellent, and apparently so good that it really annoyed Sergee I., resulting in a one star review of Ed by someone who was not even his client. Ed is a terrific lawyer and person and he will always be my first choice to represent me on any legal matters that I have in the future.

I worked with Rich Magnone on purchasing a townhome earlier this year. Rich was extremely professional and efficient. Being a first time home purchaser, he was able to boil things down and prioritize things for me to focus on both the negotiation and closing side. I was extremely pleased with the outcome of the sale and very happy with my new residence thanks to Rich. I would highly recommend using Rich for any and all of your legal needs.

Easy no-realtor home closing. Have sold by owner the last two times we've moved, and it's a great way to save some money on the commission. Having a closing attorney makes a big difference though in workload. Rich and his team did all the heavy lifting in getting us through the closing process, and they were patient in answering the questions that I had. Would happily recommend them.

I worked with Christine Travers and Richard Magnone to resolve a landlord dispute and would strongly recommend their practice.
As a tenant without any legal background - they took the time to explain our situation, recommend a course of action, and handle all the legwork (while providing us continuous updates via phone and email). Once we started working with them, our situation went from a standstill to being resolved quickly with very little involvement from our perspective. Christine in particular is wonderful to work with and took all the stress out of the situation- she is extremely knowledgeable, dependable, and easy to talk to. Thanks!

I have been a real estate developer and investor for the past 25 years. Our long-time attorney and friend moved to the East Coast and recommended Rich Magnone. Of all the transactions I have been involved with, I have never worked with a more competent law firm than Reda | Ciprian | Magnone LLC. Rich Magnone and Joy Luperini were fantastic. The entire process from contract to closing was smooth with all i’s dotted and t’s crossed along the way. As long as Rich is still handling real estate deals, I cannot imagine hiring anyone else to close our transactions. Thank you Rich and Joy. Brannon Lambert

Working with Ed Reda was like working with an old friend. My husband and I contacted him initially when we were buying our first home about a year ago, and then again when we sold this year. We were met with good advice from an honest team player.
Ed and his team provided us with prompt, attentive, and friendly service during what could of been a very stressful transition for our family.

Ed Reda has been handling our commercial deals for over seven years and is an absolute pleasure to deal with. If you call him, you'll get him or it won't take him long to get back to you. Prompt, efficient and spot-on legal advice and guidance is what we have received as We have grown during these years..
I would find it very hard to find this caliber of service at this price anywhere else in Chicago land unless you have a relative doing it for you.

I was having a very difficult experience with a bad tenant when it was recommended to me that I contact Rich Magnone. I cannot speak highly enough of Rich and his staff at Reda, Ciprian, Magnone, LLC. I didn't know where to turn, or what my legal rights and obligations were until I spoke with Rich. Rich guided me every step of the way, successfully assisting me through a very stressful and bad situation. Rich and his staff are extremely professional, honest, and highly dependable. I cannot speak more highly of my experience with Rich and his staff.

During our last real estate transaction, we used Rich Magnone to represent us. Rich always made time for us and took the time to explain the process even when we didn't always get it. When we look back on the exhausting and stressful process, we cannot thank Rich enough for his calming demeanor, knowledge, patience, and time. Rich will be the first one we call when we have another real estate transaction we need help with.

I was referred to Richard Magnone by my realtor; I needed advice on negotiating the terms of my rental lease agreement. Rich and his colleagues were very knowledgeable about landlord-tenant law and took the time to explain the legal aspects very thoroughly to me and did a terrific job of handling my situation. I would highly recommend Rich's firm for their expertize in real-estate and landlord-tenant law, and will definitely seek their advice again in the future.

My wife and I went into contract on a supposed HAFA approved short sale. It turned out the sellers lender had not done all of their homework and the deal quickly became very complicated. Rich Magnone did a wonderful job explaining the process, answering all of our questions, and letting us know of other possible complications. As this was also our first home purchase, he did a great job walking us through the normal steps of homebuying, modiying our contract to protect our interests, and explaining the in's and out's at closing. I cannot recommend him enough.

My wife and I are new to the world of real estate, and Rich Magnone was recommended to us by an attorney we know and respect. When all was said and done with our case, it was no wonder why she recommended him. Rich is knowledgeable, trustworthy, and as an added bonus he is an incredibly nice guy. I cannot recommend Reda, Ciprian, and Magnone highly enough.

He was also fun and made the experience very pleasant. He was easy to talk with and I would highly recommend his services to anyone!

I have done 7 real estate deals over the last few years and Rich and his staff have been instrumental in all of them. Buying and selling in Chicago is complicated and can be frustrating. Having Rich and his staff as part of your team makes it much easier and much less of a hair pulling, stress inducing ordeal.
Our last purchase was in DuPage county and he and his staff were equally knowledgeable about the ins and outs of that process as well.
Our family will be using Reda | Ciprian | Magnone for our estate and legal needs for many years.
