I hired Alan Feldman to represent me in a dispute over my minority shareholder rights and buyout of my stock from my former company which I was the President-CEO. I first met Mr Feldman when he represented a client that my former company had a contractual dispute with. Alan Feldman was tenacious, unrelenting and impressive in his pursuit of winning the case for his client, which he did. He impressed me so much that I was incline to hire him when I was in need of representation for a buyout and protection of my minority stake in the company I had built. If you are in need of an attorney who will not quit, fight hard, pursue every avenue and angle then Alan Feldman would be a great choice. Needless to say, he was able to bring my issue to a timely resolution that I was extremely pleased with and for a very reasonable fee. What more could one ask?

I would highly recommend Jeff Colerick as the attorney to call in Colorado Springs. I was in a car accident with my three children last year and suffered injuries to my back and neck and we all had to be taken by ambulance to the hospital. The insurance companies were impossible. A friend recommended I call Jeff. He took my case seriously and was persistent and kept me informed. He ultimately got a settlement for myself and for each of my children that was more than I even expected. We are grateful for his help.

Ron was a lifelong, personal friend of my husband who passed away in March of 2020. He became a very special friend of mine. I was at a loss at the mere shock of my husband’s unexpected and sudden death. Ron helped me wade through my husband’s Trust and all of the responsibilities that I found myself having to deal with. I don’t know what I would have done without his legal expertise. Ron helped to keep me focused as I found myself oftentimes walking in a fog so much of the time for months after my husband died. Ron is the best and one of the nicest and kindest men I have ever met. He will always have a special place in my heart.

Mr. Ronald Brotzman (Ron) has been our legal counsel for over two decades and has really been there for us. Ron has provided council on family trusts and estates numerous times -- both our parents and ours. Ron has created estate plans for us including family trusts, wills, power of attorney documents and helped transfer estate property. He has been very helpful clarifying, and sometimes debunking, the cloud of legal information you come across on the internet. Ron has setup multiple LLC’s for our businesses and provided general legal counsel on potential disputes. When warranted he recommends other specialist, i.e., patent attorneys, etc. Most importantly, Ron is our first step in anything legal.

I have known Ron Brotzman for over 20 years and during that time he has handled a number of different legal matters for me. He is very knowledgeable about many facets of the law, especially in dealing with wills, trusts, and family law. He worked with my mother and myself in rewriting our wills and living wills, durable and medical Powers of Attorney, and Revocable Trusts. He gave us a variety of options as to how these could be set up and gave us his advice on what would be the best way and told us why. When I had an issue with a beneficiary, he helped me to figure out the best way to handle it. He is very approachable and quickly responds to any questions that I have. I know that he is looking out for my best interests and I am thankful to have him on my side. I highly recommend Ron to anyone needing an attorney.

My wife and I hired Mr. Damschen to defend us against a complicated lawsuit filed against us by a reckless and negligent hardwood flooring contractor. Mr. Damschen initially provided us with free phone consultations and then we hired him to represent us. Mr. Damschen is personable, cordial and easy to speak with as he does well to translate legal jargon into common English. He was always well prepared and did considerable research to stay on top of the case. He was successful in getting a number of claims against us withdrawn or dismissed and ultimately put us in a good situation to address the true matter at hand which was complicated by the contractor's frivolous claims. In the end Mr. Damschen was able to get us in a position to make a very reasonable settlement offer to avoid further legal costs. We would highly recommend Mr. Damschen to anyone who is dealing with a construction defect or a contract dispute.

Darrell did an exceptional job of determining all that would be required and making contacts with all necessary players. He kept several of our people in the loop not just me. He guided the proper funds resources needed for the bidding process. He acted as our representative in the bidding process at the county office. He made sure all of the necessary paperwork was filed with the county. He checked to be sure that the transaction became finalized after the necessary waiting period. He secured the information needed to gain access to the property after the transaction was final. Everything that Darrell did was outstanding and clear and with the necessary detail. He made all of the required decisions that could have been a source of unnecessary work for us as client. I highly recommend Darrell to anyone seeking legal guidance. He will be upfront about what it will take to accomplish the task and move forward with confidence and great capability once hired.

I retained Mr. Elmore after about a year of failed attempts at handling my home loan modification, on my own. I was facing foreclosure and was feeling a bit misled and somewhat bullied by my mortgage company. I had previously attempted to retain a different lawyer, who informed me that it was hopeless and furthermore she was amazed that I was still in my home. On a friend's referral, I called Mr. Elmore. Right from the start he was very confident, which I needed, as well as informative. He detailed what the process would entail, including my resposibilites and a timeline. Along the way I chose to file bankruptcy, which he had initially informed me was an option available to me. The banckruptcy and loan modification were both successful and I'm sleeping soundly again. There were no surprises along the way and his fee was perfectly reasonable. I'm more than happy with Kevin Elmore.

Suzanne helped me with my divorce last year. She is professional, sharp, and extremely effective. I was able to keep my retirement accounts because she pointed out that my ex and I had always kept our accounts separate from day 1 of the marriage, and that I should be able to retain my own accounts. The judge accepted this and signed off on it, and I feel safe and financially secure as a result. As contentious as divorce can be, she helped keep everything fair and civil. She is a wonderful person who wants to help. I cannot recommend her enough!

It is a pleasure to compliment the legal work that Susanne Ewy has done for me. At 92 years of age my ability to deal with Boulder (Colorado) County authorities is quite limited. When I received notice this year that my home valuation had just risen by 50% I was shocked. This meant my home real estate taxes would also rise by this same 50% amount! Boulder (Colorado) County displayed “comparable” nearby home properties that had recently sold as justification despite the significant differences in comparisons. I engaged Suzanne Ewy to help me deal with Boulder County over this gross exaggeration. She developed a plan, gathered materials, both statistical and visual, and, within the County-stated strict limitations, delivered my request for re-evaluation. She prepared, I think, about forty-five pages of information for the County. The County Assessor rejected her request for re-evaluation completely, requiring her to file an appeal and appear before the Board of Equalization. She prepared me for that virtual hearing, making sure that I could hear and understand the proceedings. Long story shortened, the BOE granted me the totality of my evaluation amount – the entire reduction of 50%. Virtually unheard of in this county. This will result in a reasonable tax amount that will have an immediate and a long-term effect on this aging citizen who has paid Boulder real estate taxes since about 1970. My many thanks and admiration for her reasoned and effective work is unbounded.

I went in to the appointment with Mr. Shaw, and was a nervous wreck. I knew in my heart I had a great case, but just the stress of knowing someone out there wants to sue is very stressful. I told Mr. Shaw my problem, presented all my facts with evidence. He explained exactly what was going to happen, and gave me an informed choice to make. I told him what I wanted to happen and he told me his plan. Mr. Shaw assured me that things were going to work out and that I did in fact have a strong case. With in just a few days, I was informed that the suite had been dropped and in fact was getting 100% of my deposits back on the property in question. I can not express what an extraordinary experience Mr. Shaw provided for me. I highly recommend that if anyone has a situation in real-estate matters Mr. Shaw will always get my referral.

I had a very difficult case. My case was moved from Colorado Springs to Denver and my Colorado Springs attorney recommended Benson & Case. I think that was the best thing that happened to me through out this entire lawsuit. Larry knows his law extremely well and he really cares about you and your case. I am not much on recommending someone unless they excel in my book. I highly recommend Larry and his company.

I would highly recommend Larry and Benson & Case to anyone! First, the staff is great! They are always friendly, caring and anxious to help me in anyway. Larry really made a hard, challenging time in my life just a little bit easier. He took the time to explain the whole process of my divorce, and answered any of my questions that came up along the way. Larry really cares about my situation and worked hard for me to get the results I was comfortable with and did it in record time (considering my situation). He was always ready to discuss my case with me, no matter what when I called, and if by some anomaly I missed his call or he missed mine, he made sure to get a hold of me within hours. Larry is very conscious of my bill and was able to get me to a good end while still keeping my budget in mind. Larry is worth every penny!

Sara handled a business sale for us while we were out of the country. She did an outstanding job in keeping our interests covered and taken care of, as well as all legal aspects. We did this with limited communication via the internet. When we returned to the USA we basically had to go over a few minor details and sign papers. She not only did everything correctly for that business transaction but has handled trust and LLC documents and procedures for us as well. We would hire Sara to handle any legal business for us, regardless of it's nature without hesitation.

Michael Turner Field demonstrated excellence in every area of his service as my attorney in an employment law case. My case recently went to trial in 2015 but was begun in late 2011. As a client waiting and hoping for a favorable resolution I was not familiar with the legal process or how to manage the costs associated with a case. I was very nervous and unsure about taking legal action. I was referred to a colleague of Michael's and Michael came to my case when my this colleague left the legal firm. I was concerned about changing attorneys but Michael picked up my case very smoothly and he demonstrated attention to every important detail throughout my case. His team at the firm were also incredibly prepared. Their experience and professionalism shone through during every interaction. I was never left questioning or doubting any decision they made or action they took. Michael and his team communicated with me every step of the way so that I always knew what was going on and what to expect. I felt respected and included by Michael and the team at his firm. During the trial in court it was evident from the first day that I was in very good hands. The outcome of my case was a favourable decision by the jury and an award of financial damages to punish my former employee who was found guilty of illegal actions against myself and a coworker. This decision has allowed me to recover from the lingering stressful situation of the problem with my former employer and I owe it to Michael Turner Field and the excellent team at his firm.

Hi, I strongly recommend this lawyer because Mr. Turner Field has certain qualities which we don't generally see in attorneys like responsiveness , very thorough and toy feel confident. Mr. Turner recently helped me in one of the uncommon case "abuse of process" and he went thoroughly and made the well written pleading. He was very good in guiding me as per the laws and rules in CO jurisdiction. Secondly, he was very- very flexible in all aspects when you take other attorneys views, your payment plan , your monthly invoices and even any criticism. I felt this lawyer was very cool and listen to you patiently rather than other who just wanted to do thing in their own way but Attorney Turner is different from them. I STRONGLY recommend this law firm for better results.

I first consulted with Attorney Kimberly Alderman regarding possible cancellation of a Timeshare Services Agreement, based upon the company’s failure to comply with its obligations. I asked her two questions: Did I have a valid reason for cancellation and, if so, what was her fee to help me do so. She asked me to tell her more about it and quietly listened to my tale. I was shocked when, instead of answering either of my questions, Kimberly had skillfully reassessed the situation and replied that she believed I was a victim of a fraudulent scam and was worried that I would not be able to recoup the charges I had paid the deceitful company to release me from the timeshare! With kindness and compassion, Kimberly showed more concern for MY well being than for HER firm’s business. Such an amazing person and an absolute Godsend!!! At no cost to me, after calming me down from my overwhelm, she counseled Me to immediately report the matter to my credit card company, and said that SHE would advise the Colorado Bureau of Investigation and the Pikes Peak Elder Justice Center of my situation. Fast forward two weeks: My credit card company completed its own fraud investigation and refunded the entire $9600 to my account!!! Kudos to Kimberly for coming to my rescue! If anyone EVER has need of legal assistance with ANY matter, look no further than Attorney Kimberly Alderman at Alderman Law Firm. You will sleep well when you are in her hands!

I will forever be grateful to Kimberly for taking me on as a client. I was feeling defeated and hopeless prior to talking to her, she took on my case when no one else would. She took the time not only to review the thousands of pages of "evidence" against me but to also really get to know my story during that time. She fought for me from the moment we first talked all the way to our last court date. She is quick to respond and thorough in everything she does. If you are looking for someone who will truly fight for you then she is the attorney for you. There is no way I would have had the outcome I did if it wasn't for her.

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.
