Working with Hillary Johns was nothing short of stellar, I found her services through lawyers.com, and from our first phone call, I knew I would be covered. I had a contract regarding a film option and during my experience with her, she was very professional and determined to ensure her client was protected, which was a lifesaver while doing business in a field as notorious as entertainment. She is incredibly generous, compassionate, and will fight tooth and nail to make sure that no one gets the best of you. I cannot thank Hillary enough for all the help she has provided me and I have no doubt if you are in need of legal services she is your best bet of making sure you feel protected and confident in whatever legal problems you may face.

I hired Harvey to litigate a real estate dispute. As a lawyer myself, I recognized that the matter was a complex one and felt that Harvey did an admirable job dealing with the difficulties we faced in developing a rock-solid case. Ultimately, an attorney's performance is best judged by the results achieved and I was very pleased with the pre-trial settlement he negotiated. The cherry on top is that, throughout the process, Harvey was a pleasure to deal with.

I am super grateful a contact recommended Aaron’s services. Aaron’s expertise, thoroughness and hard work were invaluable in our case, helping us achieve our goal of a quick settlement with terms Aaron helped us put together. Aaron took on the burden and headache of the case, making things super easy for our family. Aaron was also very easy to contact and very quick to respond to texts and calls, which I very much appreciated as a client. I would definitely highly recommend Aaron to anyone looking for a real estate lawyer, and will absolutely use his services again for my family should the need arise.

Over the past few years we have worked on many deals and contracts with Joseph from Losh & Khoshlesan, and I have to say he is the most honest and intelligent attorneys we have dealt with. Timelines are always executed perfectly, we are well taken care of and given the utmost priority when it comes to our deals. It is a priviledge to have a high caliber attorney on our side like Joseph, and we look forward to many more years of work together. Thank you so much for everything you do.

Joseph Khoshlesan is great to work with; he is very professional and attentive to your legal needs. He is my go to attorney for all my contract matters. I do not sign or send out a contract without Joseph’s input. He makes sure all of my bases are covered and that I am protected whenever I seek to engage in a new business endeavor. Moreover, I sincerely applaud his integrity and honesty. Joseph does everything in his power and ability to provide legal guidance on matters of which he is knowledgeable and experienced; if and when I have approached him with a matter out of his concentrations, he is open about not being the right person for the job and goes out of his way to put me in touch with someone who can help me. I would, and do, recommend Joseph to all my family, friends, and business associates.

I have worked with Ms. Lampert in the past and utilized her services. I was impressed with her professionalism and her vast knowledge base. She was attentive to my questions and responded on a timely basis. I observed her dealing with the opposing counsel and found her to be able to listen to their opinions and yet firm and bold when explaining my position regarding the legal issues. I would highly recommend her to anyone wanting a goal oriented, knowledgeable legal professional.

Recently a good friend passed away. He left very little in the way of a will or other documentation that would help at that time and he did not have any blood relatives. I contacted Ms. Lampert for assistance and she was there for us. She obtained the needed court documents for us quickly. She is very knowledgeable and responsive and her fees are competitive. I highly recommend her.

Todd Bonder represents me in a case that is both financially significant and emotionally fraught. Reviewing his communications with opposing counsel and with out-of-state attorneys whom he has engaged on my behalf, it's clear that Todd is like a chess player thinking many moves ahead of everyone else in the game. Todd has been equally good on the personal side, answering questions and keeping me apprised of all developments in real time. Also, Todd's distaste for the evasive and ethically questionable behavior of opposing litigants and counsel has highlighted his own high ethical standards and increased my comfort level with him. As a professional and as a person I've come to hold him in the highest regard.

Todd Bonder is simply a first-class attorney. He is technically expert, aggressive without being obnoxious and, perhaps most importantly, compassionate and a wonderful listener. My legal matter was emotional and sensitive and involved revisiting painful issues and I always felt that Todd had my best interests at heart as a human being as well as a client. Todd's experience and professionalism gave me a great deal of confidence and I found Todd to be extremely responsive and efficient. I simply cannot recommend this man strongly enough.

Todd Bonder has served as my outside counsel for more than 10 years. We have worked on an extensive number of diverse matters together, and I (and the companies I have worked for) have always been thoroughly satisfied. Todd not only knows the law, he never fails to look at the "big picture" when advising clients about their options.
Based on my experience, there are a number of large law firm litigators who are quick to run up hours and file cookie-cutter claims when they receive a new matter. Thankfully, that is not how Todd works.
Todd examines a client's issues in a practical, efficient and often creative manner, and then works closely with the client to ensure that the services he renders are those that are most likely to achieve the client's ultimate goals.
I would encourage any in-house attorney reading this review to give Todd a call the next time you have a matter you are not comfortable handling in-house. Before you know it, he will be on speed dial.

Michael Lavaee helped me win my case against my former landlord. A case that several other attorneys tried to dissuade me from pursuing! I could not be more appreciative of Michael's incredible professionalism, prompt communication, care and knowledge of the law. My experience with Michael as my attorney was easy and efficient and he instilled confidence in me from day one. A good, compassionate and smart lawyer is hard to find! I highly recommend Lavaee Law Group legal for too many reasons to list in writing.

My family and I were very lucky that Michael was able to help us. I never experience any lawsuit but Michael made us feel at eased. Before meeting Michael, I had a couple consultations with other attorneys and their priority was money. Michael was not like that, he showed us he wanted to help. He was detailed, communicative and his passion to fight for us was amazing. During court I was very nervous, thinking of the worse but Michael's argument made me feel comfortable. The best part was that we agreed to settle. It's been about 2 years ago and as of today Michael continues to reach out to me in how our family is doing. In my experience if you are looking for a smart and dependable attorney, Michael will be the right person for you.

The client ended up hiring his firm also. We will be using him again.

David and Tim have been retained by me for one year to negotiate significant domestic and international settlements, and they have shown and used when doing so the requisite skills which have moved settlements toward favorable results. They are at their best when preparing and evaluating cases, when using appropriate tactics, when using counter measures, when making first offers, when in direct examinations, cross examinations, and when in the examination of expert witnesses. Their writing is marked by being direct and precise, by blending precision with simplicity.
David and Tim are particularly sensitive to complex moral situations, where no rule of thumb applies, no simple appeal to a single principle can assure a rational outcome. In such an instance they can be counted on to sort out the conflicting factors to determine what law, rule, or principle bears upon the situation, and what are the relative urgencies which govern a timely action.
David and Tim command a family of intellectual traits and abilities which allows them to cope with the unexpected, grasp relations, and solve problems with speed and originality. Especially pronounced among their intellectual traits is their ability to create a congenial, professional relationship with their clients wherein written reports are delivered without fail on a designate date to a designated site to coincide with or be separate from timely discussions. Their work pays close attention to the importance of having everyone on the same page and having the client in charge and fully informed.
I am a retired California State Senator who has hired and dealt with a number of skilled attorneys at law in the private and public sector. I have place David and Tim among the best of them and have in writing this statement measured them against this lot.

His court documents, including a binder with hundreds of pages, were always very organized and thorough, and his demeanor in court was always very professional. He knows what he is doing! We trusted Roy completely, and he won what could have been a financially devastating real estate case for us. Thank you, Roy!

Let me start by saying Saman is amazing!
I had a legal matter and felt lost and confused. I got advice from friends and family that are attorneys but was still lost, until I was referred to Saman by a friend. He took his time and really listened to my issues and my concerns. He is extremely thorough, knowledgeable, easy to get a hold of, hard working and most importantly he really cares about his clients. I have friends and family in the field, but without a doubt he will be the person I go to if I am ever in need of an attorney again. Do yourself a favor and seek him out, he is the best at what he does.

How Are Real Estate Lawyers Paid?
Real estate lawyers typically charge for their services in the following ways:
- Flat fee: Many real estate transactions, such as reviewing a sales contract or assisting with a closing, are charged on a flat-fee basis.
- Hourly rates: If a lawyer is handling complex disputes or litigation, they may charge by the hour. Hourly rates can vary significantly based on the lawyer’s experience and location.
- Contingency fees: In rare cases, such as property disputes or claims for damages, a lawyer may work on a contingency fee basis, meaning they only get paid if you win or settle the case.
- Retainer: For ongoing legal support, some clients may pay a retainer, which is an upfront fee used as a deposit for future legal services.
It's important to clarify the fee structure with your attorney before hiring them to avoid any surprises.
How Much Does a Real Estate Lawyer Cost?
The cost of a real estate lawyer varies based on the complexity of the matter, the location of the property, and the lawyer’s experience. Key factors that affect pricing include:
- Type of transaction or issue: Simple tasks, like contract reviews, typically cost less than handling a complex property dispute or litigation.
- Experience and location: More experienced lawyers or those in high-demand areas, like urban centers, often charge higher rates.
- Billing structure: Lawyers may charge a flat fee for basic services like document review or hourly for more time-intensive work such as disputes or litigation.
Flat fees for straightforward services like closing assistance may range from $500 to $1,500.
Hourly rates can range from $150 to $400 or more, depending on the attorney’s experience and location.

Top Questions to Ask a Real Estate Lawyer
Before hiring a real estate lawyer, ask the following questions to ensure they are the right fit for your legal needs:
-
What experience do you have with real estate law?
Ensure the lawyer has experience in the type of real estate transaction or dispute you’re facing, whether residential, commercial, or development-related. -
What is your fee structure?
Ask how the lawyer charges for services - whether it's a flat fee, hourly rate, or retainer - so there are no surprises later on. -
How long will the process take?
Especially important for real estate transactions or disputes with deadlines, ask for a general estimate of how long the process will last. -
Have you handled cases similar to mine?
Experience with similar transactions or disputes can give you confidence that the lawyer knows how to handle your case. -
Will you handle my case personally, or will it be passed to another attorney?
Confirm who will be handling the bulk of your case work, especially in larger firms where junior lawyers may take on some responsibilities. -
Can you provide references?
Speaking with past clients can give you insight into the lawyer's experience and how they handle cases.
How to Check the Credibility of a Real Estate Lawyer
To ensure you’re hiring a reputable real estate lawyer, take these steps:
- Check with the state bar association: Verify that the lawyer is licensed and in good standing with no disciplinary actions on their record.
- Read online reviews and testimonials: Look for reviews on legal directories and platforms like Avvo or Martindale-Hubbell to see what past clients have said.
- Ask for references: A credible lawyer should have past clients willing to share their experiences.
- Review their track record and expertise: Look at the lawyer’s website or LinkedIn profile for information about their experience in real estate law and any relevant cases they’ve handled.
- Membership in professional organizations: Lawyers who are members of respected legal or real estate organizations, like the American Bar Association’s Real Property Division, often signal credibility and expertise.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To make your first meeting with a real estate lawyer productive, you should prepare the following materials:
- Relevant property documents: Bring purchase agreements, lease contracts, mortgage documents, zoning permits, or any other paperwork related to your case.
- A summary of the issue or transaction: Be ready to explain the situation, whether it's a property dispute, contract negotiation, or development issue.
- Questions about the legal process: Prepare a list of questions about how the lawyer will handle your case and what steps are involved.
- Financial documents or loan agreements: If the case involves financing or a mortgage, bring any related documents for the lawyer to review.
- Your goals and timeline: Be clear about what outcome you're hoping for, and if there are any deadlines that need to be considered, such as closing dates or legal filings.
By coming prepared, you can ensure that your consultation is efficient and informative, allowing you to assess whether the lawyer is the right fit for your real estate needs.
