David was exceptionally helpful and professional during all our interactions. He was able to clearly explain legal concepts related to my case, and help me to navigate the decisions related to my case and the legal process in general. Beyond his professionalism and knowledge, David was compassionate and understanding - qualities that I did not expect to find when engaging with an attorney. Should I ever require legal services in the future, I will absolutely work with David and his team again.

Caring lawyers. This situation was in regards to employment law. David listened, provided advice on how to approach the situation with no charge. He was kind, explained in a manner we understood, knowledgeable, and the session did not feel rushed (on a Friday afternoon with an unscheduled drop-in appointment). Could not be more grateful and appreciative. They also had a dog you could pet which helped calm the nerves.

Had a wonderful experience for Beth. Called for a consultation and she spent a significant amount of time with me, answered all my questions and gave me recommendations for a path forward. She never asked for a fee upfront to have a consultation. I would highly recommend Beth and her team.

Took several months and tens of thousands of dollars with little to no progress on a simple case. I had a bad experience and a lot of others probably do but don't speak up about it. I would highly encourage anyone reading this to avoid this place.

James Cordes provided terrible advice. His drafting was sloppy and required extensive redrafting by opposing counsel, and he advised me to take a terrible deal. Because of James, I am taking home a fraction of my income. Unfortunately, I didn’t realize how bad it was until firing him and employing new counsel. He is a nice man, but a bad lawyer. I wish I had gotten a second opinion before it was too late.

We hired Lester Nieves to represent a very complex criminal case. I completely trust him to represent who we hired him for. He definitely knows the law and your rights . I would recommend him above any other attorney including the ones that are way too high priced for our budget. Lester's fee to retain and represent are more than fair. Out of all the attorneys I've spoken with we picked him and I have absolutely no regrets at all Thank you so much Lester!!!!

I called the Iyer Law Office with some simple questions about a traffic citation. Mr. Iyer kindly answered my questions and offered me a bit of guidance in the duration of our brief phone call. It was difficult to receive a call back from any of the law offices I reached out to with my simple question, as answering it was not going to be profitable for the lawyer. However, Mr. Iyer seemed more than happy to help me understand my options and showed care for my situation even if I was not to become a client. When/if I do need to hire a lawyer in the future, I would undoubtably would work with Mr. Iyer based on the quality of our exchange over the phone that day.

I had an excellent experience with Fort Collins Family Law. They were incredibly responsive and professional throughout my case. Ms. Lamborne took the time to thoroughly understand my situation and what was important to me. She offered several approaches and developed a plan of action that resulted in a very positive mutual outcome. Ms. Dandeneu was also very responsive and organized, ensuring seamless communication. Invoices and expenses were clear and agreeable, with no unexpected charges or surprises. Their legal advice was knowledgeable, and they clearly defined the positive and negative implications of our strategy. I was very happy working with the team and would strongly recommend them to a friend. I will continue to have them represent me without hesitation going forward.

I cannot recommend Sarah enough! No one wants to have to deal with family court issues, but if you do, this is absolutely the law firm to use! Throughout the entire process, Sarah was knowledgeable, kind, empathetic, organized, and realistic. My emails/calls were always answered quickly, and Sarah was always clear and honest as far as what to expect, giving her advice while also listening to my concerns. My only regret is I didn't use her when I first got divorced, haha...this was for a bunch of post-decree stuff, that unfortunately went allllll the way to a hearing. In the courtroom, Sarah was clearly much more prepared than the other counsel, organized, and had made sure I was very clear on what to expect/do, and you can tell she is smart, quick, (and also tough as she cross-examines!) I ended up getting not just everything I wanted, but extra things I didn't expect as well. However, even the outcome was less than that, I would still be recommending her, because of how helpful and amazing she and her staff were for the entire years-long process leading up to this. She was also fair in her billing, (and didn't let the other party or my witness run extra time on the billing clock.) I hope you never need a family attorney, but if you do, this is the one to use.

If you look online at her current cases, Margaret’s tactics are to lye & wait and she will do this for months, if not years. She will not contact the DA. She was hardly proactive at all. Her demeanor was polite. But it was not worth more than 5000 alone. Forget the comments below believe me when I say you will play the roll of your own Attorney if you hire this one. Half the time you’re lucky if she reaches out or returns a single phone call/text , & doesn’t make you feel ridiculous for asking questions about your case. please continue looking elsewhere. If I had it to do over again, I would!!

I have come in contact with many attorneys and I am often not impressed and surprised by the lack of knowledge and understanding of the law most attorneys have. Very few lawyers are on point with the law and how it specifically relates to your case. Not Keith. I am so impressed with his knowledge and understanding of the law. HE GETS IT, he just gets it. I've been hearing whispers about this boy genius and the professionalism of his law firm- and, let me tell you, they are true! (I don't know any other attorneys under the age of 40 that have written 2 legislative bills- do you?) It is so refreshing to see an attorney be so incredibly smart and also use his intelligence to help people, instead of being greedy. Yes, I am biased! But you will be too if you use this firm! My case is still ongoing, and I don't want to jinx the outcome, but so far, I'm just super impressed and ridiculously happy with the results. I will update this post at the resolution of my case. I am also going to review Matt Dall, the other attorney at Gantenbein Law Firm, that has been working with Keith on this case- he is amazing, too! Thank you guys for not judging my circumstances but just working so hard to help the average person!

This lawyer his law firm his associates his entire staff are there for you. If you have been taken advantage of lied too and led down the path of miss trust. This is the firm for you. I was hours away from loosing the ability to just fight for my family home just months after my father had passed. He had been trying for nine months to get a refinance. I found this firm as my last resort I was heart broken disillusion and just down right defeated. Keith personally called me late that evening after I had spoken with his lovely warm receptionist. I was frantic he explained in terms I could understand what needed to be done and we were not out of time. That night he set wheels in motion and proceed to complete it by midnight the next day which was my dead line. Him his amazing staff in a short month and half time have gotten me a refinance. Yes he saved my home and got me in a payment I can afford. Yes I am beyond grateful and thankful for everyone they fight for you the owner. Not the banks not the lenders but you the person who has gone into foreclosure not by choice. They give you back your dignity your respect but most of all your peace of mind. They are for you your family your rights as a homeowner. If you need help this firm is who you need. They will even get your money back if you have paid other people who have done nothing but take you deeper in despair. Don't wait another second make another useless call. Just one call to this firm will let you sleep again in your home.

He took the payment info and never spoke a word to me again. I have no clue if he even did any of the things I hired him to do. I the payments were for two separate jobs, he took both stubs and never even spoke to me about the second job, though I have no way of verifying if he ever did anything whatsoever. I tried contacting and have received no responses.

I guess we got lucky. I never thought we’d need a lawyer, but we did. We are so very very thankful that we found Katherine. For more than 3 years, she guided us through myriad issues, hearings, and considerations that would have left us stunned and bewildered without her help. I will always remember her manner in the courtroom: utterly calm, focused, and deliberate. My co-parent rolled through lawyer after lawyer, and with each new one, we only became more PROUD, relieved, and grateful that Katherine was by our side. She was always well-prepared, she was always thorough, she was always available. She took setbacks in stride, and remained guided by the big picture. I will be eternally grateful for her services, I cannot recommend her more highly.

After my consultation, it was clear Katherine was the one I wanted to be on my side! She made my legal separation quick and painless. She worked great with my ex and was able to communicate between us to make it work smoothly. With clear and precise documents drawn up and everything explained in detail with good insight on issues and answering all questions promptly, she is an amazing lawyer that I would happily work with again!

Judith assisted us in our agreement with our egg donor. It’s clear to us that her experience and knowledge in the field is the result of years committed to the fertility and legal fields. She was a supportive, kind advocate from our initial meeting through the completion of the agreement. She was very clear about cost and timeline expectations and delivered as promised. Our particular agreement was a “split-cycle” for sharing eggs with our donor. She took the time to carefully understand our situation and craft an agreement that reflected our needs. Everything has gone smoothly! Thank you, Judith!

Armstrong Graham has exceeded all of my high expectations. Previously, with another firm, I had spent thousands of dollars and so little results. Armstrong was completely transparent and totally upfront with expectations of what kind of money it should take. He follows up with me regularly and clearly lays out what the next steps are and how that pertains to me. Interview Armstrong for your next legal needs. After speaking to him I hand ZERO desire to interview anyone else. During our initial first phone call I was at complete peace just knowing that he was the one to be in my corner and represent me.

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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
