If you want an attorney who will fight for you within the confines of the law then Greg is a good choice. When I left my ex he filed for an Absolute divorce after the 1yr separation requirement. Greg fought for me to have court ordered alimony. There was an unusual twist in my case which Greg successfully helped me with. He is a kind, hard working man. He always promptly replied to my e-mails and answered my questions. His staff is wonderful. Every one I encountered was very kind and helpful Any messages I left for Greg were always given to him. Based on my experience I would recommend Greg if you need an attorney.

I was injured at work in 1993 and Mr. Brewer took my case. He made sure the insurance company paid for all of my medical bills and the time I lost at work. I've received a check EVERY week since my accident. This law firm took good care of me and I would highly recommend them for anything! They were on my side when the insurance company was against me.

Haley Cook and her paralegal, Maggie Crider, were outstanding!! Friendly, knowledgeable, and very helpful. They went above and beyond; even working past their normal business hours to get our closing done.

Attorney Rudisill was patient and humanistic, she took time to really listen and responded extremely quickly. I was so happy that I was able to find this opportunity to ask my questions without fear of being intimidated by a fast talking attorney. I would definitely seek Attorney Rudisill out again on any legal action. Thanks so much for your information. It seems like the attorney's that have been in the business the longest are the ones that leave the snappy responses and expect you to just understand why they say such...Attorney Rudisill took the time to be as thorough as possible and helped me understand what I may need to consider before moving to my next step.

Unfortunately, my location was too far for her to travel to and represent me, she was very helpful in answering my questions and helped me know what I should do from now on. She was very helpful and friendly when I asked her questions (even the ones that seemed dumb) and I would've definitely go to her if I had any other issues if she works in my area.

I'm from Raleigh, so I happened to find Attorney Rudisill online. The absolute best decision I made! I only had questions at first. She took the time to explain things and even answered questions I didn't know I had. She took on piecework for me and was very reasonable, not trying to charge for more. Attorney Rudisill is very knowledgeable and helped me to come to a beneficial resolve, I would highly recommend her services.

I cannot say enough about the superb professional support I have received for my dental practice from Mr. Brad Stark and The Fisher Stark law firm.. Brad and Perry are not only highly skilled attorneys, but they offer a warm and caring attitude that I have not found in many attorneys. They've not only shown great interest and concern for our legal matters, but they have always responded to our needs very quickly, with great efficiency, and with success. I strongly recommend the law firm of Fisher Stark, and look forward to their future support.

Mr Stark assisted me with my injury lawsuit. I found him to be extremely attentive and helpful. He took to the time to get to know me, not just my case. Admittedly I was a bit intimidated talking to a lawyer but he was very down to earth and helped me understand all the legal jargon I didn't really understand. He explained my options and laid out clearly what I could expect throughout the process which really helped settle my nervousness. I am very thankful that I chose Mr. Stark and would certainly recommend him if you are seeking an attorney.

Knowledgeable, empathetic, funny, polite and reasonably priced. These are all descriptions of Attorney John R. Fonda of the Fonda Law Firm. I'm a Landlady with investment rental properties in the Triad.
I met Attorney Fonda at the W/S Forsyth Co. Government Centers waiting area, along with other Landlords and Property Managers. As we waited for our hearings to be heard. When he walked in, I found him to be pleasantly approachable. He had us laughing and talking to each other. That really helped us ease the tension of the situation.
We informed him that we were Landlords with eviction cases. He offered us his Landlord informational pamphlet of the legal do's and don'ts called "Landlord's Guide To Summary Ejectment Proceedings In North Carolina. That he wrote, and at no charge!
My PROFESSIONAL TENANT had a Legal Aid Attorney that first delayed the case by continuance, then had the case dismissed.
All of which the tenant and Section eight withheld rent for two months.
I called the number on the pamphlet and hired Attorney Fonda to redo my case. He did an excellent job informing and advising me through email and phone calls. He understands and get what Landlords are up against in the Court System. As we have rights to.
After sending the tenant a NOTICE OF DEFAULT letter and followed up by an ACTION FOR SUMMARY EJECTMENT NOTICE. This Professional Tenant couldn't flea the property fast enough.
I would definitely retain his services again and refer him to other Landlords with the same problem I had. He is truly GOOD PEOPLE. Thanks, Attorney Fonda.

I needed some legal advice regarding setting up my handmade business. Chase Wells is a talented artist who sells his graffiti art in a local gallery, so I felt he would understand my needs.

He discussed at length with me various liability and tax issues and the best ways to set up my business, as well as what document and legal disclaimers I would need. I feel very confident to move forward with the consultation and legal advice he gave me.

Michael Hoard has been our family's attorney for over 10 years. He has handled many closings for several members of the family and each person was always completely satisfied with his work. When my husband became ill and we unable to attend a closing, I knew that Michael would and did handle this matter and he made sure all of our questions were answered. Whenever I contacted Michael and he was unavailable, I was confident that he would get back to me at his earliest convenience. Michael set up a trust for my husband and me and he explained the necessity of everyone protecting their assets no matter the size of their estate. I have always been able to contact Michael to ask legal questions and he never made me feel like a bother. He was always patient and informative about each topic we discussed. Michael would be an asset to any law firm, as I know you have learned. He will always be the attorney my family calls.

In my 20 years in banking I have aligned myself with a handful of exceptional referral partners. Chris is one of those trusted partners. Chris has done many commercial real estate closings for my clients through the years. His thorough title work goes above and beyond and he covers the challenges and potential risks in detail with the clients. Not only does he deliver this this excellent level of work, he does so at a great value compared with other firms I have worked with over the years. He has also done a personal (residential) closing for me that was handled in an excellent manner as well.

Ms. Brumback was the lead attorney on a team that defended a large national Architectural firm in a complicated claim brought by a very aggressive health care institution's legal team.
At all times, Ms. Brumback patiently and competently led our firm through the process. Our firm had been very successful over the many years it had been in operation in avoiding such claims and, as a result, required much guidance from the legal team in assisting in our own defense.
I, personally, and the firm, generally, would recommend Ms. Brumback to any design firm in need of an excellent defense.

I returned a product to a store owner and he claimed he would issue me a credit on my credit card once his credit card machine was working again. He never did after multiple phone calls and then sent me a bad check. Melissa wrote him a letter to "put the fear of God (or fear of lawyers, perhaps)" into him, which seemed to work, since he finally sent me a check for my refund that cleared.

Ms. Brumbach represented my firm on two separate occasions. The first as a member of a legal team who defended us against a former client. Rather than meet to discuss the concerns in person, this client was persuaded by an aggressive law firm to resolve the matter through the courts. Their incentive being the expectation of a large insurance settlement from a policy we carried at the time.
The second was as our attorney in a suit to collect fees from a client who withheld final payment for work we performed. Rather than meet to discuss, this client ceased communication.
In both instances she became familiar with the facts very quickly and developed a well conceived plan for both our defense and the merits of our claim.
We would not hesitate to engage her if the need arose once again.

We have used Donna for several years for our personal and professional needs. She is incredibly knowledgeable and advocates for her clients. We are a small family without large assets, but Donna and her team have always been generous with their time and given us the attention and advice we needed.
She helped us close several mortgages and a sale of our house, which would not have closed without Donna and her team going above and beyond (the buyer's attorney was clueless).
She has handled our estate planning, as well as healthcare powers of attorney. We have a unique family situation, and Donna's knowledge of NC law helped us create custom documents that have brought us tremendous peace of mind.

She always takes my calls (early, late, weekends) and if she can't, she gets back to me very quickly -- as if I were her only client. She almost always knows the answers, but if she doesn't she knows the right people to contact. I know that she won't quit until the job gets done. And above all, I know that Donna is always working in my best interests and will always go above and beyond to ensure I am covered from a legal standing.

I worked with, and retained William Devore IV for a legal mess that I was in. I feel that his representation and consultation throughout the process exceeded my expecations. He helped streamline 2 different issues that I was having, whereupon one dealt with renters and the other my property management company. William is knowlegable, articulate and most importantly assertive with his handle on the law. He guided me along the right path and even went above the billable retainer to get my desired outcome. Hopefully, I won't need his services in the future, but if I am in a legal bind, I would have no thoughts about a different counsel.

Jason is a friend from church. When I approached him for advice about a claim from an auto accident that left me with permanent injuries, the time for filing the claim had nearly expired. Jason began to work for me immediately. He made every effort to settle the claim through mediation, experiencing the same frustration I had experienced with the insurer. Jason was marvelous throughout the trial. He prepared each witness extremely well, presented a well documented and thorough case, and gave keen attention to details. The jury award was substantially higher than mediation would have rendered. Now I consult Jason regularly, fully trusting him with my family law business including divorce, will, and matters of estate. Jason is a hard worker, always prepared, ethical and fair.

Jason Page has represented me for the past year in a case which involved a piece of longleaf timberland I own in eastern North Carolina. Someone impersonated me and sold my timber to a local forest products company. Jason Page helped me recover my damages from the insurance firm representing the timber company. My mediation was completed in January 2012.
I was extremely satisfied with his help on all levels. He was available and responsive through emails and telephone calls and always kept me in the loop with regards to papers that he filed and developments in my case. His background of working in timber before becoming a lawyer made him especially valuable in my case…volumes, pricing, optimal merchandising of a timber tract…all are a bit obscure if you are not in the timber world.
But in a broader sense, this is a person who I would use for any legal matter that he is willing to take on. His honesty, prompt attention to detail, and full involvement with the case at hand all commend him. With more lawyers like Jason Page, the public impression of the profession would get a big boost.

It was a good experience and I feel better knowing my wishes will be followed and even more importantly I have made it easier for my heirs to close out my estate when that time comes.

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.
