We had a great experience working with Scott, Lauren, and Melissa to close on our new home! Their service was exemplary and their fees were very reasonable. Scott helped us every step of the way with quick responses and great advice. As is bound to happen in any complex transaction, some challenges came up along the way - Hornung & Scimone saw us through all of the bumps in the road with patience and support. Highly recommend!

Amazing partners to have when navigating a property purchase. Having not been through a real estate transaction in 20 years, Scott Sellers walked us through everything we needed to be comfortable and was readily available and responsive anytime we had questions. Scott would definitely be our go-to for any future real estate purchases. Highly recommend.

My husband and I just bought our first home in Wakefield, and we were extremely happy to have Scott Sellers as our real estate attorney! He was great at answering any questions we had (which was a ton!), and he helped us navigate the first-time home buying/closing experience. Scott also helped us navigate some post-move in issues that we had with the home and settle the manner quickly and efficiently. We would highly recommend Hornung and Scimone, PC (and Scott!), if you're looking for a real estate attorney in the Greater Boston area!

We are first time homebuyers and had a great experience with Chelsea and her team. She was very responsive during the entire process and very knowledgeable about everything. We highly recommend Chelsea!

Great job, kept my wife and I informed, reasonable price, can’t ask for more.

Hornung and Scimone P.C. and Attorney Nicole Pinkos, specifically, were retained as representation for the sale of my family’s residential property. I accompanied my mother to the signing since she had not done this before by herself, so I was there to support her and offer guidance. Upon asking a simple question about distribution of proceeds from the sale of the property and the expected timeline, I was met with hostility by Nicole. Attorney Pinkos proceeded to chastise me for asking reasonable questions about the process, and replied that “you should not speak unless you’ve been through the sale of a residential property yourself before… otherwise you don’t know what you’re talking about.” I was stunned. Nicole made comments about my physical appearance, called my intellect into question, and commented on what she presumed my age was (based on my appearance) after I asked her to turn down the temperature and cease with her aggressive behavior. I explained that I am simply advocating for my mom, given there was some uncertainty surrounding this complex transaction (hence why we were looking to Nicole for clarification), and that we would appreciate some grace. “Do you want to finish the signing here, or do you want to keep talking and wasting my time so I bill your mother for this?” was Nicole’s response to my question. My mother was shaking at this point and I was in a state of disbelief. My mother asked Nicole to stop the disrespectful rhetoric. Nicole continued to verbally berate me for the next five minutes in her office. Nicole then stormed out and we completed the signing with only the paralegal present to finalize the transaction. Truly dumbfounded, we called one of the partners at Hornung and Scimone P.C. to discuss Nicole’s egregious behavior and request an apology the following day. The partner we spoke with said that while they would speak with Nicole about what transpired, an apology would not be issued to us because Nicole technically did execute on what she was hired for, despite her poor behavior. We were in disbelief over the complete lack of ownership. Respect, empathy, and patience cost nothing, yet mean everything. Attorney Pinkos possesses none of these qualities. She deeply lacks professionalism and emotional restraint. I cannot speak to any of the other attorneys at the practice, though I vehemently advise against retaining representation from Nicole Pinkos.

ScottSellers and his firm of Hornung & Scimone PC did a great job for us on our recent home purchase. Cindy MacQueen was also very helpful.

I had a wonderful experience working with Chelsea Doogan at Hornung & Scimone. She was extremely knowledgeable, responded to my emails/texts quickly, and explained the process in layman's terms that I could understand. I will definitely use her services again if I buy another home.

Chelsea was great. Responsive, communicative, knowledgable and instrumental in us buying our dream home. Thank you Chelsea. Highly recommend.

I’m can’t say enough amazing things about Chelsea. This is our second time using her and we will continue to use her for all our closings. She is very knowledgeable and knows how to complete the real estate transaction. She always gets right back to you with any questions you have in a very quick response time. I would highly recommend Chelsea and her team to anyone looking my for an attorney for their real estate needs.
