Sandy Van helped us with a short sale and counseled us on our personal situation to even be able to short sale our home. She answered all our questions honestly and was very patient with us. She also had very good support staff which acted the same. The short sale process does take a long time but we received weekly updates from her practice. During the process we did not get harassed by the banks that held our mortgages (which was nice). I had heard about her through a reference and have no regrets with using her services. Although I had heard of several individuals who have short sold their home with simply a realtor, I do feel that her qualifications as a lawyer and realtor did help our situation.
