I came to Kendra Morgan panicked and scared about some traffic violations that I received. She was able to provide information about the severity of my tickets, gather the appropriate documentation, and present my defense to have my traffic matters resolved with the best possible outcome. Having her on my side took away my anxiety and gave me such a feeling of relief. Never go to court without an attorney; never go to court without Kendra Morgan.

I highly recommend The Law Offices of Cheryl David. We worked closely with Gia Gaster at the firm, an expert in working with DSS and Medicaid qualification for the elderly and nursing homes. We could not have navigated the complexities of the Medicaid qualification process with DSS on our own. I am so grateful for Gia's advice, her knowledge and professionalism. Gia got the job done! I will definitely be back for Trust and future family legal services. Thank you Gia, for your dedication, hard work, and always being there to answer our questions and working so closely with us. We couldn't do it without you!

Mr. Gordon represented us against a fraudulent building contractor. He was tenacious against the individual. After winning in court, and gaining a sizable judgement for us, he was able to turn that judgement into a secured lein on the individual's property. As you may know, judgements don't mean you will recover your losses, but the secured lein has provided the opportunity to actually recover our initial losses. Briefly stated, "You want Harry Gordon to be your lawyer, not opposing council".

I highly recommend Harry Gordon for any business needs. He set up my corporation, fought my former employer that tried to sue me as I was starting up, and has given me great legal advise along the way. He has done a great job collecting debt and gone into mitigation twice with companies owing me money and we won. Harry is relentless, and is definitely one that you want sitting on your side of the table. I would have never made it 18 years in business without Harry Gordon.

I went to Ms. Bowers because there was a client who refused to pay us on time. She took the information that we gave to her and she reviewed our contract and met back with me and told me what were entitled to. She then replied back to the client and the issue was settled. Ms. Bowers ability to relay to me and her knowledge of our companies operation made communication between us very clear and simple. She has the knowledge to ask questions simply and directly. We have had to use her on a few occasions we have learned to expect the best results. Her depth of knowledge and ability to communicate with us makes her a pleasure to work with.

Attorney Medlin is an excellent lawyer. I am a private provider whom was targeted by DHHS in an audit in which they requested almost 1 million dollars, alleged in over payment. Upon my initial contact with Mr. Medlin he quickly came to my defense, formed a plan of action and was very well prepared to go to trial however though his expertise and injunity he was able to stop them from trying to terminate my medicaid number and cleverly enlightened them on all the mistakes they made during my audit, while pointing out to them their benefit financially for not finding the needed items in my records, as the auditors receive a percentage of whats paid back in their findings. He proved to them that not only were my records in tack but also that they failed to accept responsibility for their system errors which have caused many problems with providers being held accountable for their failed authorization system. Needless to say this is an awesome man who walked me through the whole process, assisted me with document searches, and made sure I understood all aspects of this overwhelmingly agonizing process. He saved my business and I am very proud he represented me in this case. I highly recommend him for his outstanding commitment, knowledge, expertise, loyalty and determination to win my case.

I have used this lawyer for multiple residential closings. One was for a foreclosed condo and Bob was diligent making sure everything was in order before the purchase was completed. He did uncover a problem which delayed the closing, but better to have everything right to begin with than have baggage to deal with later.

Listennnn! Attorney Carpenter did in two weeks what another attorney didn’t do in an ENTIRE YEAR! This is not a hyperbole, this is a documented fact! He came highly recommended but because of the lack from the other attorned we were skeptical! He got the job done and there was not even a need for a court appearance! He is not only good at what he does, but also down to earth and understanding of your feelings regarding the matter and the need for quick dissolution/resolution! We are so grateful for him and never even met him in person! If I could give six ⭐️s I would! I hope to never need another attorney but if I do, he is definitely my choice hands down!

Very professional but even more commendable was how attentive and personable Mr. Carpenter was. When it comes to legal processes that one may not completely understand, trust is a big factor. You want someone that understands you, has your back and applies the law appropriately and effectively .I believe that is a rare quality these days. We were not just another number in his contact list. He always got back to us and knowing that put us more at ease. I highly recommend him! Best choice we ever made!

PSA! PSA! PSA!!! I know I may sound a little dramatic but who cares! When it comes to Mr. Causey I will go above and beyond to let the world know that he is by far the ABSOLUTE BEST ATTORNEY you could ask for!! My very first serious traffic stop and he came through like a bat outta hell! He made me comfortable, I felt like family and he didn’t disappoint. Long story short - my case was thrown out within 20 minutes as he sat back with his legs crossed and argued my case! I’m forever grateful that Mr. Causey came through for me. Don’t look no further, you’ve found the attorney that you’re looking for!!!!
Thank you Mr. Causey!

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.
