I worked with this Law Firm after an accident in November 2023. From the moment I contacted them, they got right to work, promptly starting my treatment plan. While I initially experienced some delays with my first caseworker, everything changed when my second caseworker Paula was assigned. They were absolutely amazing, organized, efficient, and truly dedicated to my case.
Even when I was a bit difficult to work with at times, they handled everything with professionalism and care, ensuring I was always informed and supported. Their hard work and persistence made all the difference in my experience. I’m very grateful for their efforts and would highly recommend the Orlando Firm to anyone in need of legal assistance after an accident.

When you call a lawyer it’s because there are some really troubling circumstances in your life. Speaking with Roger Orlando not only reassured me that I was going to prevail but I was incredibly pleased at how quickly he followed up with me and stayed right on top of all the details. I recommend him highly.

I contacted Brad last minute to help me help my grandmother with her medical directive and financial power of attorney. He responded promptly and without hesitation. I needed someone with patience, knowledge and experience to sit down with her and carefully review and explain what these important documents were and how beneficial they were to her, and that is exactly what Brad did. I highly recommend him, if he can't help you, he will certainly do his research and refer you to someone who can. My family and I plan to continue to use his services in the future.

I recently had the opportunity to work with Brad. He handled a case for that was not clear cut, but required a good understanding of the field in which he was practicing. He was persistent, he kept me in the loop, and negotiated a successful result.
Brad also clearly understood how the process was likely to unfold, and accurately presented the time line the case would follow. I was amazed. In addition, he was a careful steward of time and expenses, keep costs low.
I would highly recommend Brad, and have personally to friends and business associates.

Mr. Legare lead me through the process of putting a will together, and all aspects of the adavanced medical directives. These included a living will, health care proxy and durable power of attorney. During the process, Mr. Legare discussed in detail the process, terms and answered any questions I had. Since we completed the estate planning and medical directives I have gone back to Mr. Legare for various other legal questions unrelated to the previous work. He hs been very helpful and responded very quickly.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Osensky Law as we navigated the complexities of drafting our business agreements for 2024. From the outset, Tanya impressed me with her thorough approach to understanding our needs and objectives. Her ability to ask insightful questions and provide clear, actionable advice was invaluable in shaping our agreements to be both robust and fair.
Tanya demonstrated an impressive grasp of current legal practices and was adept at advising on the language of our agreements to ensure they were up-to-date and aligned with our business interests. What set Tanya apart was not just her legal expertise, but her commitment to being available and responsive. Throughout our collaboration, Tanya was always ready to assist, offer clarification, or make adjustments based on our discussions.
Her professionalism, coupled with a genuine interest in our business’s success, made working with Tanya a truly beneficial partnership. I am confident in her guidance and would highly recommend her services to any business looking for legal assistance that is both effective and conscientiously delivered.

When I launched my design & communications firm Red Berry, Tanya Osensky was my first call for legal services. I needed to incorporate and to compose a sturdy client contract in easy-to-read English. Fifteen years later, I am still using the contract she wrote!
Tanya is always insightful, concise, and very willing to answer my questions. She holds herself to the highest level of integrity. And she has my full confidence in handling legal matters. I enthusiastically recommend her services.

Tanya helped my business partner and I in a "start-up" company. She was flexible with our schedules and gave us the guidance we needed legally. All we had to do was tell her what we wanted to accomplish, and she knew all the prerequisites to getting us started fast. In fact Tanya went above and beyond the legal necessities required by offering suggestions. As a final courtesy, she followed-up to be sure everything was done that we needed. Very professional, reliable, and friendly.

As his one and only daughter, I feel obligated to give him a great rating. He has helped me involving my pedagogical school work that I struggle with. I am rating him five stars, but he won't get me the Sims 4, so that's a minus. Over all, great for buying pizza. Takes me to Candler Park Market. Good.

Doug was a great help to me, and I would recommend hiring him as your attorney. He has a sharp mind and a good heart, which is what you want above all in someone who is representing you and your interests.

I was referred to Doug Tozzi by a colleague of his. From my initial consultation to the final settlement of my case, Doug was wonderful to work with and I would highly recommend him without hesitation. He is very knowledgeable of the laws and legal procedures. He is very thorough and kept me informed throughout the process. I never had to wonder about the status of my case. He went toe to toe with an older very seasoned attorney and was never intimidated...if fact, he shined. My case was extremely complicated and he sifted through the facts to pull out just what he needed so he could understand the case and help us achieve the best result. We ended up going through mediation and I was very impressed with how skilled he was with helping me understand the process and advocate for our best interest, while not allowing me to be my own stumbling block. I am an attorney and have worked with lots of attorneys and I find Doug's demeanor very refreshing. He is smart, sharp and confident but not conceited. His rates are fair and commensurate with his experience. I highly recommend Doug Tozzi.

Karen Scott was a pleasure to work with as she assisted me with variance resolutions to come into code compliance for the City of Brookhaven. I have much more confidence navigating through the process knowing she’s on my team. I strongly recommend consulting with Karen regarding and compliance and code specifics for any works being done on your property. Thanks again Karen!

I highly recommend working with Williams Teusink and cannot convey the gratitude I have for Karen Scott. She navigated a compliance issue with the city whose remedy far exceeded the code that was cited in the complaint. She worked with the code compliance officer to reach an equitable resolution. When work needed to be done that our neighbor didn't agree with she even went to our property to handle it in person. She was very responsible with the use of her time and consequently our money! When it was time to appear in court I walked in to a plea having been reached and approved and in minutes the case was closed without penalty. I would highly recommend Karen for any code issue with the City of Atlanta.

10 stars. Amazing results, far, far exceeded our expectations.
Our HOA's tax situation was a mess, a residual left to us from the developer. Twenty-five tax parcels, all with errors; incorrect appraisals, addresses and names. We owed tens of thousands of dollars in back taxes and liens. It was an overwhelmingly complex jumble. Attorney David Metzger and the WT team successfully negotiated with the county and the developer. Our appraisals were corrected and our tax bills were reduced from $31,000 to $31.00. David secured tax refunds that far exceeded our liens. He also negotiated a positive settlement with the developer for our HOA
There are plenty of attorney's who can assist with appraisals, that's easy. Few are the firms who understand how to work with the counties and cities property tax departments to resolve complex issues. Williams Teusink is one these select firms. Do not hesitate.

Rob was recommended to us by a neighborhood friend as having an excellent reputation in solving cases similar to ours. We recently moved out of state from Georgia. Our moving company "disposed of" half of our household belongings after delivering them to the wrong state. Rob helped us settle a claim that was overwhelming and daunting to us. Not only did he know all of the legal loopholes that needed to be dealt with, he also was readily available to my husband and me via phone calls, emails or text. He listened to me vent and gave us hope as we took on a national moving company. Rob advised us of what to do step by step to achieve the outcome we wanted. We were able to settle for an amount we were very happy with. I highly recommend Rob to anyone in need of an attorney. Job well done!

Robert assisted me with a lawsuit that was brought against me. He helped me through each step of the process, was clear and provided easy to understand advice and direction, and I was able to prove that I was in the right and my case was dismissed.
I would recommend Robert and contact him again if I needed legal assistance.

Rob went out of his way to help us with what some may consider a very small problem. This was a single family property line discrepancy issue and to us it felt insurmountable. We had no idea where to begin, but with his help we were able to get our problem resolved. He went with us to the county office to talk with them to find out what needed to be done and then handled all required documentation and correspondence, plus followed up until we had our answer. I would highly recommend Rob to anyone who is going through a similar situation.

Karen Scott was a pleasure to work with as she assisted me with variance resolutions to come into code compliance for the City of Brookhaven. I have much more confidence navigating through the process knowing she’s on my team. I strongly recommend consulting with Karen regarding and compliance and code specifics for any works being done on your property. Thanks again Karen!

I highly recommend working with Williams Teusink and cannot convey the gratitude I have for Karen Scott. She navigated a compliance issue with the city whose remedy far exceeded the code that was cited in the complaint. She worked with the code compliance officer to reach an equitable resolution. When work needed to be done that our neighbor didn't agree with she even went to our property to handle it in person. She was very responsible with the use of her time and consequently our money! When it was time to appear in court I walked in to a plea having been reached and approved and in minutes the case was closed without penalty. I would highly recommend Karen for any code issue with the City of Atlanta.

10 stars. Amazing results, far, far exceeded our expectations.
Our HOA's tax situation was a mess, a residual left to us from the developer. Twenty-five tax parcels, all with errors; incorrect appraisals, addresses and names. We owed tens of thousands of dollars in back taxes and liens. It was an overwhelmingly complex jumble. Attorney David Metzger and the WT team successfully negotiated with the county and the developer. Our appraisals were corrected and our tax bills were reduced from $31,000 to $31.00. David secured tax refunds that far exceeded our liens. He also negotiated a positive settlement with the developer for our HOA
There are plenty of attorney's who can assist with appraisals, that's easy. Few are the firms who understand how to work with the counties and cities property tax departments to resolve complex issues. Williams Teusink is one these select firms. Do not hesitate.

An attorney friend recommended Roger Krause - calling him “the smartest man I know.”
My family quickly found that he was right. Besides being EXTREMELY clever-I found Mr. Krause (and his staff) to be fair, honest and VERY responsive.
This is the office you want on your side in any dispute. They will not forget about you and will work diligently to get things done.
My family received immediate attention from Mr. Krause and his staff and more assistance and kindness than we could have ever hoped for.
In this field, experience means everything and we were so thankful that they knew their stuff.
Our family cannot thank this law firm enough for their good work.

Doug Aholt and team were wonderful to work with. Even in the middle of a pandemic, Doug was able to get to know me and my case in order to lead me to the best possible outcome. He took the time to walk me through the multiple options I had and educate me on the process. I always knew what the next steps were and never felt like I was in the dark. I ended up with better results from my settlement than I thought possible. This was my first time ever needing a lawyer and the whole experience was a pleasant surprise.

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.
