Real Estate Law

Real estate law regulates the buying, selling, and using of real property. Real property is considered land and anything that is permanently attached to it. This area of the law is commonly referred to as property law and addresses matters relating to both residential and commercial property. Real estate legislation is primarily introduced at the state level and varies substantially from state to state.  

A real estate attorney has extensive knowledge of the laws that govern the purchase or sale of real property. They resolve real estate disputes between parties and address all legal requirements pertaining to real estate transactions. They are equipped to handle any issue that arises during property ownership and will negotiate or litigate skillfully to obtain its resolution.

A commercial real estate attorney can advise you on zoning issues, environmental matters, and existing liens. They can save you time and money by reviewing the contract to look for any discrepancies or potential pitfalls. A real estate attorney can investigate the property to make sure the deal is legitimate and that there are no hidden problems, such as unpaid taxes. Lastly, they can assess the fair value of the property and negotiate on your behalf to get a fair price.  

Attorneys who qualify for verification have successfully reached at minimum a $250,000.00 verdict or settlement for their clients and are subject to annual re-verification and screening to confirm their good standing.
