I worked with Ms. Driscoll on a complex real estate transaction, and while her expertise in the field was clear, there were some areas where the experience fell short. Having 22 years of experience, as noted in her profile, she certainly knows the ins and outs of real estate law, and I appreciated her deep understanding of the process, especially given her recognition in the field. However, communication was a bit inconsistent—some responses took longer than expected, and follow-up was not always as timely as I would have liked. The transaction itself went smoothly, and her guidance was helpful, particularly when navigating zoning issues. I also valued her role as managing partner at Harris Beach Murtha, which likely contributed to her thoroughness. That said, I would have preferred more proactive updates and clearer timelines. For a straightforward real estate matter, she’s competent, but if reliability in communication is a priority, it might be worth discussing expectations upfront.
