I have worked with Mr Colombo on several successful cases both real estate foreclosure and landlord tenant issues. Mr Colombo worked relentlessly to win our cases both against crooked banks such as Bank America and Wells Fargo as well as a fraudulent property manager. Mr Colombo’s superb knowledge of the law and tenacious efforts secured victory on all counts!!! He is the best and most successful Attorney we have ever worked with!!! A 10 on all counts!!

Joe Columbo and his team were a great choice 12 years ago when we went into foreclosure. We never wanted to lose our home. We tried so many times to refinance but the bank would do nothing. We were told to stop paying our mortgage to qualify for grants and we did that hesitantly. We never got the grants and the bank never helped us. Columbo walked us through the entire process and helped us so much! So glad he helped us!

Even though counselor Denis was unable to take my case due to the time requirements he proves to be exceptionally gracious and generous offering his insight and sophisticated knowledge of law. it’s one thing for an attorney to know the law it’s another for an attorney to know how the contours apply to strategy -simply superior!

When you deal with Mr. Herbert you don't feel like you are being at the meeting with a lawyer, you feel like you are dealing with a good friend. But do not underestimate Mr. Herbert, he knows his job very well! He is knowledgeable, meticulous, patient, and experienced attorney. He always puts your interests first, pays attention to your opinion and your needs. He helped my family to save a lot of money. Thank you so much Mr. Herbert!

Ms. Travis provided me counsel as I proceeded with a divorce. She listened thoughtfully to my concerns and questions and I felt that she provided me advice that was professional and specific to my issues...it was clear her main priority was making sure I was protected and informed as I went through the divorce process. Her advice was easily communicated to me and I appreciated her input on a number of issues. I am certain this already difficult process would have been even harder without her input and direction. I would recommend her without reserve and will seek her counsel in the future on any legal issue for which I may require counsel.

Kim Torres came highly recommended to me. She is well respected in the legal community for good reason. Not only did she make efficient use of our time, she also offered realistic, no-nonsense guidance. She handled our case with compassion and professionalism. No negotiated outcome is ideal, but mediator Kim Torres is probably your best chance of settling out of court and getting on with your life.

Mr Whitehead represented an entity on the defence concerning multiple parties in a lawsuit. He is very knowledgeable and tedious in his work. I believe his background as a fighter pilot was a firm foundation for honesty and meticulous work as an attorney. We need more attorneys of his caliber in the legal system. I highly recommend that you consult with and hire him.

Ed is a remarkable attorney. He has been my construction litigation attorney since 2002. He is very cordial and professional, but when he represents you, he can be a beast with your opponent. He builds the case from information he and his staff glean from you, they do the case law studies, and when he deposes and tries cases, he gets to the truth. I am proud to be associated with Ed and to have him on my side.

If you are reading this, your attorney search is done. Let me explain.
Erica agreed to represent me for an extremely important hearing regarding custody of my son. In a very short period of time, she was able to come up to speed on my case. Her preparation and attention to detail was obvious as she worked through witness testimony and her ability to respond to objections by opposing counsel was impressive (if I could have filmed her courtroom performance, I would upload here).
Erica is an amazing attorney - I wholeheartedly recommend you call her office.

Her and all of her staff are a team and well organized😊. I felt like family. The way she represented me I would have paid her anything she asked. I wouldn't put my life in anyone else's hands...

My experience with John was on a very minor plight, but I think he should be recognized for this as well as the situations that entail more detail & time than my scenario. The point being that even something probably considered trivial to other attorneys, John indulged me & offered his support with full attention. Personally, I feel this speaks volumes of the kind of person he is. No matter how small, he just wants to help people - regardless. Thank you, John! I really appreciate you & the help you provided. You were spot on...brilliant even!

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.
