We had a consult with Lindsay today regarding a civil matter we are trying to resolve. Lindsay was very helpful and provide us with great insights that enabled us to plan a suitable path for our case. Even with the minimal amount of information that we gave her during the 30-minutes consultation, Lindsay was able to explain in a very succinct manner the merits of our case enabling us to chart our path forward. While we were not able to hire her at this time because of her workload, we were left with a great impression of her skills and knowledge in the area of civil law, and would certainly consider hiring her if we ever face any legal needs in the future. Thanks again for your help, Lindsay!

I was immediately yelled at by the attorney who answered the phone. Was the most rude person on earth, didn’t care about my case at all because his ego was too big to be asked a simple and basic question. I can’t believe someone would speak like that to a potential client. As a doctor and entrepreneur, that was the WORST possible way to handle the situation. I will never do business with such a disrespectful person.

I cannot thank Lori Crystal and her paralegal, Jim, enough for their incredible support during my divorce. Lori was able to meet with me almost immediately after my initial call, and she quickly guided me through the process of filing for divorce. She even served the papers to my ex-husband while I was present, which was a huge relief.
Divorce is never easy, but Lori and Jim made it much more manageable. They helped me navigate the separation of our property, and thanks to their expertise, we were able to reach a resolution without needing a court date for final orders. Lori was always there to calm me down when emotions ran high, encouraging me to focus on moving forward and healing.
Lori is not only highly knowledgeable and professional, but she is also compassionate and responsive. Whether it was through phone or email, she was always available to answer my questions and guide me through the process. I highly recommend Lori Crystal and her team to anyone going through a difficult divorce.

I contracted with Aaron Barrick to serve as my counsel to fight against a fabricated mechanics lien and also to draft a contract with a new builder. Mr. Barrick was able to get opposing counsel to release the lien. He also helped me navigate through rough waters with a steady hand and a kind heart after my first contractor left my house project in disarray. Mr. Barrick's understanding of construction law from both sides as a contractor and as a home owner was key to resolving my case successfully.

Aaron Barrick is a savvy, experienced, effective, efficient, honest attorney. He does not waste time with issues that don’t or won’t affect the ultimate outcome of the matter for which he has undertaken client representation. He keeps his eye on client resources as if they were his own and bills fairly. His support staff members at FFB&P are also experienced and, like Aaron, timely respond to telephone calls, questions and requests for copies of documents even if peripheral to the main issue at hand. He also knows his way around the courtroom and has experience on both sides of the bench. Aaron is a skilled negotiator and understands the need to be prepared and meet deadlines, a benefit, I believe, of his Air Force service and training. I have dealt with many attorneys in my business career and find Aaron and his firm to be among the best. I have referred others, both friends and business associates, to him and his firm and will seek his counsel and advice in the future when I, or my business interests, require legal assistance.

I have used Attorney Gubbels legal services several times over a period of years. First off, he is a good listener. He is not impetuous. I have used him in cases involving different aspects of the Law. He has always been prompt and thorough in actions taken or recommended. I am always confident he has my best interests at heart, and not his wallet.

So I had to deal with this guy when my HOA decided to sue me. When I met him at the Adams county Court House, I told him I had filed for Bankruptcy yet he still insisted I talk with him. He handed me a contract and told me to sign it. I asked him what was the contract for and what did the contract do for the both of us. And before I was able to complete the sentence, he said, “I don’t have to explain anything to you.” So I asked him one more question, where do I go to grieve this? (Using an old union term). Soon as I said that things got really bad. He raised his voice and said, “I’ll take you to trial if you want to play this game.” He further went on to tell me how he was only doing his job and ranted for 2-3 minutes about the law and his job.
So here is the history on this guy. He graduated from a tier II college and a tier II law school. Now there is nothing wrong with that we have to go to schools that we can afford… But keep in mind you get what you pay for. Because after law school I am sure everyone says. “I want to become a collections lawyer for an HOA.”
If you have to deal with this guy, be careful. He is rude, high strung, and board line unprofessional. Use your phone to record the whole conversation, just in case you need to grieve his license with the Colorado state bar. Read his contract very carefully! There are parts in that are very tricky. For example, you are not allowed to use the memo section on your checks. If you have any stray marks on your check they can refuse it.
You also need to be careful when talking with her paralegals. They are just as rude and unprofessional as Stephane.

What a Real Estate Lawyer Can Do for You
A real estate lawyer provides legal assistance in transactions and disputes involving property, including residential and commercial real estate. Whether you're buying, selling, leasing, or developing property, a real estate attorney can help ensure that your transactions are legally sound and your rights are protected. They review contracts, perform due diligence, resolve disputes, and provide legal representation in negotiations and litigation involving property matters.
Real estate lawyers are crucial in safeguarding your investment by ensuring compliance with local, state, and federal real estate laws, as well as protecting you from potential legal pitfalls related to property ownership and transactions.
When Should I Hire a Real Estate Lawyer?
Hiring a real estate lawyer is beneficial in various scenarios, including:
- Buying or selling property: When navigating complex real estate contracts, it’s advisable to have a lawyer review and ensure that the terms are favorable and legal.
- Commercial property transactions: For leasing, purchasing, or selling commercial properties, a lawyer can help manage the intricate legal aspects of such transactions.
- Zoning or land use issues: If you're planning to develop property or change its use, a real estate lawyer can guide you through zoning laws and land use regulations.
- Resolving property disputes: For boundary disputes, title issues, or disagreements over property rights, a lawyer can help mediate or litigate the matter.
- Foreclosures or evictions: If you're dealing with foreclosure or managing a tenant eviction, legal representation ensures that the process adheres to local laws and protects your interests.
- Title and deed issues: Lawyers can help clear title disputes, ensure the legitimacy of property deeds, and handle transfers of ownership.
What Does a Real Estate Lawyer Do?
A real estate lawyer provides a range of services to help with property transactions and disputes, including:
- Contract drafting and review: Ensuring that purchase agreements, leases, and other contracts are legally binding, fair, and protect your interests.
- Title search and clearance: Conducting a thorough title search to ensure that the property has no legal claims or liens that could affect ownership.
- Facilitate closing: Managing the closing process in real estate transactions, including reviewing final documents and ensuring that everything is in order before the transfer of ownership.
- Resolve disputes: Handling legal disputes related to property ownership, boundaries, zoning, or tenants.
- Assist in financing: Reviewing loan agreements and mortgage documents to ensure the terms are fair and legally sound.
- Zoning and land use advice: Guiding clients through the complexities of zoning laws and building regulations for property development or renovation projects.
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.
Always discuss fees upfront to understand the overall cost of the legal service you're receiving.
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.
