Frequently Asked Questions
- What legal services do you provide for real estate transactions?
- We offer comprehensive legal services for all stages of real estate transactions, including contract review and drafting, title searches, closing coordination, lien resolution, zoning compliance verification, and dispute resolution. Our team ensures all legal aspects of your property purchase or sale are handled professionally to protect your interests and facilitate smooth transactions.
- How much do your real estate legal services cost?
- Our fees vary depending on the complexity of the transaction and the specific services required. We offer both flat-fee arrangements for standard transactions and hourly rates for more complex cases. During your initial consultation, we'll provide a clear estimate of costs with no hidden fees. Many clients find our services ultimately save them money by preventing costly legal issues down the road.
- When should I involve a lawyer in my real estate transaction?
- It's advisable to consult with a lawyer before signing any purchase agreements or contracts. Early involvement allows us to identify potential issues, negotiate favorable terms, and ensure your rights are protected throughout the process. We particularly recommend legal counsel for commercial transactions, new construction purchases, or when dealing with inherited properties.
- What's the difference between a real estate attorney and a title company?
- While title companies primarily focus on title insurance and closing services, real estate attorneys provide comprehensive legal representation. We conduct thorough due diligence, draft and review contracts, resolve legal disputes, and ensure all aspects of your transaction comply with state laws. An attorney can identify and address issues that title companies might overlook.
- Can you help with real estate disputes after closing?
- Absolutely. We handle post-closing disputes including boundary disagreements, undisclosed property defects, title issues, and contract breaches. Our litigation team has extensive experience resolving real estate conflicts through negotiation, mediation, or when necessary, courtroom proceedings. Early legal intervention often leads to more favorable resolutions.
