I am SO thankful I found Will for an attorney during a scary and precarious legal dispute with my landlord. My fellow female roommates and I came to suspect that our landlord was entering our rooms when we were not home and even found a peephole. When confronted the landlord began to harass and attempt to intimidate me with an onslaught legal threats. I called literally 30+ lawyers in town to seek legal advice, and if they bothered to reach back out to me, the response was that my case was too small. I spoke with Will the first day I called. He really listened and was moved by our predicament. He then proceeded to guide me step-by-step through the process of suing the landlord. We won the case, couldn't have hoped for more. But really, the psychological comfort of having him on my side during such a stressful and unnerving time was incalculable. If you want a lawyer who listens to you, Will's your guy!

Willis has handled a number of cases for our company. Each time he has provided excellent counsel...not necessarily telling us what we want to hear but always telling us what we need to hear. He's a very bright, talented, and professional lawyer.

Megan and Todd did an amazing job representing my fiancé! My fiancé had a terrible PO that violated him for no reason! His PO was fired for falsely violating people, but the state still pursued my fiancé for probation violation that never happened! He was fighting 2 felony charges and facing years in prison. If it weren’t for Megan and Todd working so hard on this case, it wouldn’t have been DISMISSED! Megan wouldn’t accept anything other than a dismissal, and she was fierce! We are so happy we hired Sallee Law.
Megan and Todd - thank you SO MUCH!!! We cannot thank you enough!!

I am currently a client of Matt and have been for a couple years. He is always consistent and fair with his advice concerning all parties. Matt has genuine concern for his client's best interest at all times. He helped to negotiate us through a difficult business situation where it was discovered the other party's lawyer had an undisclosed conflict of interest. Easy to work with, trustworthy, and does not run up the bill on you.

Matt has been incredibly insightful and creative when assisting us in completing small or big business transactions. He is as good of a real estate attorney as you could want, yet is great in handling a broad spectrum of other legal issues. Even more importantly, we find him to be very genuine and personable. My wife and I have been in the business for 30 years, and it has been hard to find a better lawyer than Matt.

I asked Jynell to look over my Lease Agreements and provide counsel on the legality and thoroughness of my documents. She provided me with a thorough document with many protections and items that I did not originally consider. Any questions were promptly responded to, and she was professional and friendly during the entire course of our engagement. Most impressive to me, though, was the fact that Jynell was incredibly straightforward about her rates and policies from the beginning - no ambiguity!

I reached out to Jynell regarding a tenant/landlord case and she was FULL of information! Even though she has a busy schedule, she took the time out twice to speak with me regarding my case and she doesn't even typically counsel on cases like mine. Jynell had a lot of insight to offer and was patient with explaining to me terms that I did not understand. Thanks again Jynell for your kind support with my situation! Highly recommended.

I was having issues with the IRS over a business tax issue.
I thought I could simply write a letter to IRS abs explain abs resolve. That did not happen so I canned Mr. Schmith. We met reviewed all of the material involved and he went to work.
Again I hopes the matter was a simple fix but of course I have learned nothing with the IRS is simple. Greg set up
An accountant for me to work with and together the worked through issues involved. They kept me well informed as to progress, even after covid slowed everything down with the IRS. After several meetings and calls we finally got the issue resolved at about 1/4 of what I started with.
The other thing was my ex wife wax involved with one of the years in question. Greg quickly went to work on getting her name off the tax issue and eliminating any responsibility for her in the issue.
They were even able to help me with the State getting a large refund.
I of course would and have recommended Greg to other people I know.

Chuck took the time to consult with me concerning a case for my mother. He was very helpful and made recommendations that were in the best interest of my mother. I hired him. His secretary promptly sent emails as to the follow up that we needed and sends reminders when I am not able to get the information to her immediately. Both are very professional and have been a tremendous help to my mother and I. I recommend Chuck Roach to anyone who is in need of legal services.

I hired Chris to represent me for a couple of bad credit card debt lawsuits that I wanted to settle. He did an outstanding job of working to get the best settlement possible and his communication throughout the process was impressive. I was able to save a considerable amount of money with the settlements and his fees were very fair in my opinion. Anyone in the Indianapolis area should consider hiring him to help settle charged off consumer debt. Thank you Chris!

I'm a single mom of 3 almost-adult children. While attempting to set my own affairs in order and make sure my children were well provided for in an unplanned scenario, I went to Sarah for advice and she took care of everything I had and had not thought of. For a short visit to her office and a fee that's less than I pay for internet in 6 months, it was well worth the peace of mind it has afforded me. Sarah is a calm, warm, responsive, sympathetic person. I felt very comfortable discussing my wishes and concerns with her, and she provided plenty of insight into the legalese contained in the documents that will protect my children and their property should I be unable to. Highly recommend!

In 2015 my disability benefits from an independent insurance company were wrongly terminated. Miss Everett prepared my very difficult and lengthy appeal. She won the case for me. My benefits were reinstated and I received all of the back pay that was due me. Miss Everett was extremely responsive to my calls and emails. I believe that, along with the written appeal, her excellent communication and negotiation skills are a large part of winning the case.

I was referred to Sarah by a funeral home to help with issues concerning a cremation for a family member. I was so impressed by how quickly she attended to my needs. It was simply unbelievable. She went out of her way to get things done quickly and thoroughly. It was amazing. She drove out her way to meet me to get paperwork, worked hard to get things done fast (I just had to smile when I saw emails after midnight, she meant business!), and communicated extremely well with me and my husband. From the first phone call to having my issue resolved it was less than 24 hours. I can't give her enough praise. In this busy world with so many obstacles in our way it was nice to have the personal touch. I knew she cared. I plan on hiring Sarah to do our estate planning.

This lawyer was excellent. I was very sorry to see her go when she took maternity leave. I felt like she cared about me and stayed in my corner during a difficult time in my life. I struggled to understand the process of divorce, what was important and what wasn't, what "looks good" and what doesn't, etc. Nothing was intuitive for me, but Leah was a guide and a counsel. Her rate was very affordable for this industry and she was efficient. If you're looking for a compassionate and empowering attorney, I highly recommend Leah.

Jason was initially retained to formulate a new business entity for myself so that I could further develop and grow in my professional field. That meant the development of business plans, agreements, and other contracts. As time passed, other personal needs of mine arose, which included more complex litigation matters involving banking, financing, and real estate issues. All of those needs were met with the utmost of professionalism and persistence to achieve the desired goal. Jason is someone I trust implicitly with all of my business and personal matters. However, something that struck me the most, was Jason's ability to use the law to achieve a just result as opposed to ever lowering himself to tactics which would compromise his integrity and ethical standards. His stance on these issues made me trust him even more.

She continues to follow up with me to make sure everything is going smoothly.

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.
