Daniel S. Khwaja, Attorney at Law - Chicago, Illinois

MARGARET R.

Mr. Khwaja is an extremely dedicated and focused defense attorney. He will thoroughly review all issues that pertain to your case and pursue those that will bring a most positive outcome. His arguments are direct and are reinforced by his knowledge of the current laws. He will apply those laws fiercely and will not back down (as I have witnessed with my previous attorney). He will not hesitate to protect your interests in and out of the courtroom.
So far, he has won two cases for me. The first was for a violation of a Federal Housing regulation and the case was dismissed.
The most recent case triumph was won (with prejudice) for violation of the Single Refilling Rule. This was the Plaintiff’s third attempt at foreclosure. No doubt they will make further attempts. I have complete confidence and trust in Mr. Khwaja’s abilities to tackle those challenges with ease.
He is the best choice anyone can make when choosing an attorney.

Dan is an top notch attorney. Being in real estate myself, I have personally seen some of his work, and am familiar with his practice. I would hire Dan and his team in a heartbeat if I ever needed such services for myself, or my clients. Dan has also given me personal advice on some issues that some of my clients had concerns with in order to answer their questions, and he wasn't even working with them at the time. Dan is a stand up guy inside, and outside of the courtroom!!

Dan Khwaja is a GREAT attorney. He is extremely professional and fights hard for you and WINS!!! I would highly recommend him to anyone that needs an attorney.

Dan is an excellent attorney and I’m so happy that I met him when I did. His skill and experience in the areas of foreclosure defense and bankruptcies is unmatched by any attorney in the Chicagoland area.

This guy is so good at defending people facing foreclosure that the State of Illinois has changed its foreclosure laws (based on Dan’s arguments!) to better serve individuals. Banks hate him!

Dan Khwaja, Attorney at Law should be one of the “Top Ten 2019 Illinois Super Lawyers”
His ground breaking foreclosure litigation is light years ahead of EVERYONE else in his profession. He takes on very complicated cases, demonstrates competentcy over and above what is expected and demonstrates an attention to detail that is nothing less than exceptional! He is there to win your foreclosure case not just delay it. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

I consulted Mr. Khwaja regarding my pending foreclosure and it was late in the game. They were moving for summary judgment against my property. I hired him 2 days before the hearing. He filed a motion to reset the briefing schedule and get an extension of time. He asked the motion to be advanced on the day of the hearing. That was granted. He filed a response to the motion for summary judgment, beat the summary judgment, and the case ended up dismissed!!! This guy is sharp as a razor and can come up with a game plan fast if you give him any time and I gave him none!!!

Dan is a phenomenal lawyer. I've seen his work and I would hire him to represent me in a mortgage foreclosure case any day of the week. He is dedicated to his clients and his work is impressive. You cannot go wrong with Dan!

Dan is an excellent attorney. I’m going on 5 years of a high conflict divorce, going to court ever month. Sometimes twice a month. I’ve seen my share of good and bad attorneys. My case was extraordinarily difficult and terribly damaging to my family, my business associates and myself. My ex wife who is mentally ill forced the property that was purchased as a college fund for my children into foreclosure as a form retaliation for my children telling the judge of the abuse sustained at the hands of her and my ex mother in law. Knowing my ex wife’s thought pattern I knew she’d seek revenge against our children for telling on her and she’d stop payment on their two flat. Since early on in the divorce my ex had a court order removing me as an authorized person on the account for that property. I was left with no way to communicate with the mortgage company to rectify any situations on my own. Foreseeing the situation, I sought a referral from one of my old real estate lawyers for someone to step into the case to protect the properties. On their recommendation a seperate attorney was hired during the divorce solely to protect my interests in the real estate. She did what I knew she would. The attorney was hired 2 months before a payment was even missed on this particular piece of property. His outright refusal to do anything for the $7,500 he collected landed this property not only in foreclosure but let it go to the point that a judgement for sale was entered. Never notifying me of the situation and giving me the brush off the entire time I asked for an update. Completely keeping me in the dark. And when I confronted him about it after it went to judgment for sale; two years later, he excused me of being negligent, even tried to strong arm me. He said there is nothing he could do. He told me to give him another $5,000 and he could keep it going another six months but I was going to lose the property no matter what. Then he started telling me how I really don’t want the property anyway. I told him I had given him $7,500 to protect the property and he literally did nothing. He told me if I wanted a bill, he’d give me one but then I’d have to pay him even more. The entire situation was horrible. He took advantage of my good nature and the terrible position I was in and pretty much extorted me. Then he left me hanging I’m a worse situation than if I never hired him at all, only With $7,500 less. That night with tears in my eyes I told my kids I didn’t think I’d be able to save theIr building. The next day feeling hopeless, I reached out to a friend and was given a referral from their attorney for an attorney who specializes in foreclosure litigation. After talking to her I was then again disappointed that she was too busy to take my case. In reality I think she just didn’t want it. Because my case is so complicated. She told me to call Dan Khwaja. She said “you’ll like this guy”. I called him right away. it was definitely the right move. Dan gave me more information on my first phone call with him than I got in two years with the other thieving attorney. He met with me that same day. We discussed my case and I paid him a retainer. He started working on my case immediately. I was surprised when he texted me on a Friday night and then found out he worked all weekend on my case. As I said I’ve been going to court every month for years and I know a good attorney from a bad one. Dan is not good - he’s excellent. The amount of professionalism and attention to detail is second to none. He takes what he does very seriously and has a soul that is uncommon in most attorneys. He managed to overturn the judgement and get me another chance to save my children’s building. We are not out of the woods yet and mine is a very uncommon case. But with that said I have complete confidence in Dan Khwaja. As a matter of fact, I’m betting my children’s future on him. If you’re in a bad place, don’t know where to turn, call him right now. Time you have is limited. Don’t waste it with anyone else!!!
