It was a pleasure to work with Marc and Andrea. They were extraordinarily responsive, attentive, and thorough. Please do yourself a favor and use their expertise to navigate through the real estate process!

As first time home buyers, we were very nervous, especially pursuing a house that was “For Sale By Owner”, without using an agent. Knowing we needed representation, we went to Home Sweet Legal, and they really helped us through the process. Thankfully, our purchase was not particularly complicated, but there were still a few rough patches. The Home Sweet Legal team got us through the whole sale and made sure that we were legally protected every step of the way, and we have no doubt that even if more complications had arisen, we would definitely have counted in their help.
We are so happy in our new home and are so thankful to Home Sweet Legal for helping us to get there.

Recently sold a property in St. Louis remotely from out of town. I negotiated sale price without realtor. I hired Marc to help with paperwork. Marc and his team were invaluable. I thought I had everything figured out; however, I was wrong. Transaction went smooth. I wish Marc could have helped with my house purchase in Colorado. We used a realtor like everyone else. Most expensive taxi ride ever and likely cost us money. Realtor was from big name shop, but the realtor missed much which, as stated, cost us money in the end. Marc's business model is spot on. Why would one use a realtor when one can hire a real estate attorney for the same price or less? This is a no brainier...
We purchased a sell by owner house.Mr Jacob did really good in the whole process.He really stand by your side,drafted the contract,ask for the gas inspection from gas company,then we found the leaking gas which is not found by the home inspection.This is potential life threatening!The seller also admitted:"You got a very good lawyer". We really appreciate what Mr Jacob did for us,and the service is really deserve the money we paid.

Marc Jacobs and Home Sweet Legal provided excellent guidance and representation. He and his team helped to provide a smooth, stress-free process. You can count on him having your back! And by utilizing his firm and agent recommendation, I was able to save over 50% of the legal fees! I highly recommend him and will use him again if and when the need arises! Great job Marc!!

Home Sweet Legal is built on in-depth real estate knowledge, overwhelming Integrity, and a clarity and sensitivity of thought that sets their clients at ease.
My wife and I recently purchased our first home and chose Home Sweet Legal to ensure an honest transaction that was free of any legal issues. Having worked in the mortgage industry for 5 years, I know vigilent one must be to ensure compliance. Our own home purchase had an issue that came up and Home Sweet Legal, with clarity and sensitivity, explained exactly how a legal issue was at play if a change was not made prior to closing. The team then proceeded to provide a custom, research based solution in line with the law, both quickly and under multiple pressures. The team does not compromise when it comes to the law and you can be rest assured that you are in great hands when using their services. We 100% recommend Home Sweet Legal and will be using them again.

There is no way I will ever by or sell another home in the St. Louis area without Marc Jacob representing me. Not a chance. He saved me 100s of hours time wading through and collecting paperwork, responding to phone calls and emails, trying to figure out the legalese of dozens of pages of documents, and so on. He went above and beyond the call of duty on several occasions and made the entire process of selling my home entirely stress free--which allowed me to spend my time doing other important things. I've worked with attorneys before and Marc definitely stands out. He is incredibly on top of things, he will fiercely represent your best interests, he will not let you get taken advantage of, he quickly responds to questions and information requests, and he knows how to close a deal. I was able to negotiate a much better deal having Marc. It was a truly exceptional experience. I'll never use a real estate agent for a home transaction again. I didn't know that selling a home could be so easy. You won't regret having Marc on your side!!

Having used Marc’s legal services on two different occasions, I was pleased with his work. In each instance, I sold and purchased a home without using a real estate agent. Therefore, Marc’s guidance, advice, and support was especially useful and important. I had many questions, which he answered promptly. Also, his office assistant was most helpful. I have no reservation about giving Marc the highest rating.

I hired Home Sweet Legal to help with my home purchase because I was starting to feel uncomfortable being unrepresented. It was hard to get answers to my questions, and I felt in the dark about the whole process. Marc Jacob and his team at Home Sweet Legal helped me to understand what I was signing and made me feel confident in the purchase of my new home. I highly recommend them would hire them again.

I hired Marc Jacob to represent me during a residential home purchase. He delivered excellent representation during the entire process. He was responsive, thorough on the details, and explained all the legal documents well. An issue came up during closing with one of the documents and Marc advised me not to sign until the issue is fixed. The other parties downplayed the issue and tried to pressure me for expediency, but I followed Marc’s advise and that forced the parties to correct the documents. He is not the typical St. Louis attorney. Sometime later I needed a referral on a different legal issue and he promptly helped out. I recommend Marc to anyone who needs real estate or business representation that is competent and professional.

We just closed on the sale of our home in O’Fallon, Missouri. Hiring Marc and his team at Home Sweet Legal was the absolute best decision we made regarding the sale. This was the first time my wife and I hired an attorney. The process was simple, and all of my questions were responded to immediately by phone and email.
Marc went above and beyond to keep me informed and helped me to keep the buyers on track. When the buyer had to push closing back, Marc had a contract amendment prepared for all parties to e-sign the same day! Home Sweet Legal saved us more than $12,000.00 in realtor commissions. I absolutely recommend Marc Jacob and the Home Sweet Legal team.

We moved to St. Louis from out of state and could not have done it without our Home Sweet Legal attorney, Marc Jacob. Things were very hectic and we had a real estate agent, but only our lawyer could help us understand the title work, the survey and make sure the enormous packet of closing documents actually said what it was supposed to. Home Sweet Legal even negotiated the “standard” title company closing documents so that they removed something at closing that could have hurt us down the road. They facilitated a smoother process by defining the roles of everyone involved and ensuring every task was accounted for. We would recommend using them, even if you have a real estate agent, and their fees are also very reasonable.

Jennifer and I want to thank Marc Jacob at Home Sweet Legal for his assistance and guidance for his assistance and guidance in the process of buying our home. You took what was an opaque and thoroughly terrifying task and made things simpler and more efficient: for example, knowing that you had read through all the documents before we sat down for the closing gave us confidence and greatly facilitated what had to take place. You personally have been friendly, kind and responsive, so working with you was a pleasure. I would also like to add that what you charged for your services were incredibly reasonable, especially considering how much help you were. We certainly would happily recommend Home Sweet Legal to other potential homebuyers looking for legal and logistical assistance with their purchase. Again, thank you -- we wish you and Home Sweet Legal the best.

Our Home Sweet Legal attorney was an incredible resource as we embarked on the adventure on our first home purchase. Our FSBO deal was anything but simple, and Home Sweet Legal was there every step of the way, explaining everything in terms that we could understand, protecting our interests with every twist of the deal, and giving us peace of mind with this significant investment. We would highly recommend them to anyone even thinking about a real estate transaction!

I could not be more pleased with Home Sweet Legal’s services while selling my grandparents’ house. I had a real estate agent, but not having bought or sold a home before, I didn’t realize how stressful the process can be. My lawyer, Marc Jacob, was there every step of the way to ensure that everything went smoothly. His knowledge and attention to detail are nothing short of amazing. I also employed the services of Home Sweet Legal while purchasing a house recently and was just as impressed with the level of attention and care with which Marc Jacob reviewed all of the documents. I highly recommend Home Sweet Legal if you are buying or selling a property.
