Rodney Glusac was recommended to me by a lawyer friend. I needed help in setting up a new business. We were able to agree on a date to meet to discuss my questions within days. He was very friendly and easy to talk to. He was also knowledgeable about the best way, legally, to set up my business. After our meeting, he got to work and submitted all the required forms to the state. Within days I received an email letting me know it was complete, with a detailed list of things I needed to do. I would highly recommend Rodney for anyone needing help in setting up a small business.

My colleague and I were referred to Mr. Glusac during the our purchase of a new company. In 2019 we sat down with him and immediately felt confident in his advice. The process was less scary then we had anticipated. With his expert advice, which we had followed, every step through the purchase made us feel very comfortable. It was one of the best referrals I have ever followed up on.

I worked with Ken on the recommendation of my financial advisor to establish an LLC for my company and also construct a will. Ken was thorough in asking about my business and then researching what the best form of business to establish was, i.e., LLC or P.C.

Mr Lowe does not represent me, he represents my sister. He is under no obligation to me and in fact the relationship over the past 2 years could be characterized (by me) as borderline adversarial. Attorneys have no issues with that. It's fundamental to the business. I'm an engineer. I think it stinks. I met with him yesterday. I left there not wanting to punch him in the nose. A major breakthrough moment for me and attorneys. He cares about his client and the role of the family. Yikes. And then I found a little grocery shop that sold U.P. pasties. I'm must be in the twilight zone or Larium, Michigan, eh Toivo? I'm a Toot (Michigan Tech student, (not graduate, but my son did).

I am a retired executive from a national company base here in Michigan. A few weeks ago I received an email from Ryan Nephew alerting me that I may have overpaid on taxes. I blew it off as a scam. However I soon received another email which led me to research his background. It looked legit so I called him. He explained that his team has been looking into tax overpayments and that his office determined I was owed in excess of 5 grand. He explained that I would not have anything to pay out of pocket. I just needed to sign off on his ok to challenge my taxes. He didn't need any additional info such as my SSN. I gave him the ok and a few weeks later I received a nice check. His fee was deducted from my tax rebate. Had his office not reached out I never would have recovered a cent of what was owed mainly because I did not know I was owed anything. He and his team are legit. If you are contacted by him I urge you to respond.

We received a letter From Ryan Nephew. We did not think it was legit. I searched Ryan Nephew on the internet and found that he had an existing business and had great reviews. I researched what he said in his letter. The State of Michigan withholds a tax from the seller when a home in Michigan sells. In most cases the tax is improperly withheld. I called and spoke to Ryan Nephew. He explained to me the situation and that he could recover the tax. His fee was only a small portion of the actual refund received and was solely contingent upon receiving the refund He was a professional at the highest level. He answered all my questions. He filled out all the paperwork for the refund. He was in constant communication with me. Upon filing the paperwork, the refund was received in a few weeks. We received $7,500 that we had no idea we could get. This was found money. It effectively was a significant reduction of our broker’s commission. Please do not ignore this letter. Please call Ryan. Please let you realtors know so that they can communicate this to all sellers. Ryan specializes in this and please make this widely known.

I received multiple letters from Ryan Nephew's office regarding a possible refund of a tax that I had paid when I sold my house in 2020. I took a few months before I called to see if it was legit.
Totally legit. They found a loophole in a tax that I had paid that I wasn't supposed to.
I am receiving a check as we speak. It takes about a month. They handled all the paperwork. I docusigned the papers and had to send a form to the State of Michigan to prove who I was.
Many are scams, but Ryan Nephew is not one of them.
I totally trust him and his office to handle my affairs.

We had an agreement with another attorney. But after we talked with one of family friend, he highly recommended Mr. Jakub. And we changed our planed and agreed to give our case to Mr. Jakub. I believe it was one of the best decision we have made. Because he is very professional, helpful and kind. He really knows what he is doing. He explained everything step by step. With his assist, we got the results earlier than we expected.
So, I highly recommend Mr. Jakub. He is really master of his business.

John helped a client of mine get her home out of foreclosure after it was sold at the sherriffs sale. If you are facing foreclosure give him a call. As a realtor I highly recommend getting legal advice before it is to late. He is one of the most knowledgable,accessable, and fairly priced attorneys I have worked with. He isn't free but he won't charge you for every phone call or fax like some do.

As someone thats hired Robert Mullen as an advocate in the past, he blew me away. He's a straight forward and transparent guy to work with. He does his groundwork and prepares well. What's most impressive however is his courtroom presence. When it's showtime, he absolutely dominates the opposing party. His courtroom presence is 2nd to none.

Would not recommend this guy for legal representation. Seems very shady and lazy. He was very hostile and not professional at all in his own office space. He is very hard to reach or get ahold of. Not very effective at communication.

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.
