J. Dudley kindly helped me resolve a case involving supposed 'damage' to an Avis rental car at DLH airport, and he was efficient, professional and timely in his response. Although I am sure it was a minor case for him, monetarily, it was a major headache and financial set-back for me when I received a claim after returning a rental car that there were 'scratches', which included a large, unreasonable bill for repair, LOU and administrative fees regardless of the fact I had photos of the car upon return showing no damages that I had caused, and an eye-witness who also verified in writing that there was no damage to car. Avis customer service dept. would not help me as they claimed that car was independently owned, of which I was never forewarned by Avis or Priceline, and only later learned that company had terrible BBB ratings and multiple complaints by clients for claims of supposed damage to cars after return. I had no leverage to deal with the rental car owner, but J. Dudley resolved the matter in 1 week and the claim was cancelled, which was a huge relief for me. I had felt powerless against a huge rental car company who unscrupulously tacked on various large fees for supposed scratches after car had already been returned undamaged to Avis airport parking lot, and was very grateful for Mr. Dudley very quickly eliminating this claim. I also appreciated that he has a sense of humor, acts human, and treats his clients with respect and concern.

I was impressed with Joe Dudley the first time we spoke on the phone; he returned my call the same day. From our first conversation, I had confidence that I was in “good hands” with his expertise. He is a very professional, genuine, trustworthy down-to-earth person. The legal counsel he provided regarding a very challenging vendor contract dispute was spot on. I could tell he really cared about my situation. I am grateful for meeting Joe through these circumstances and thrilled to say that we won the dispute! I highly recommend him, as he will be our contact for any legal needs in the future.

Once Doug had read my district court case he knew he could overturn it. Through our conversations on the phone I could tell Doug was passionate about law and justice. He worked extra hours on our case to create a brief that no Judge could deny. When I finally had the opportunity to meet and hear Doug argue at oral panel, he sealed it for me in more ways than one. He was not only convincing in front of the 3 Judges, but myself also. The man on the phone fit the description when I met him in person. A compassionate family man lawyer that can relate to his client. Thank you Doug!

I've worked with Patrick McGuiness for business entity creation, employee handbook, general employment practice consultation, issues related to customers/collections. Also consultation on the contracts we use with our clients.
Patrick is a pleasant person to work with and is very professional and timely about communication. Your phone calls and emails will be returned promptly.
He has experience owning a construction-related business, as well, so I think he is uniquely qualified to give good advice to business owners and would-be business owners. His fee structure is fair for both sides. He definitely earns what he bills... which has not always been how I felt about other attorneys.
He is my go-to attorney and I would call him regardless what legal issues you're facing. If his firm doesn't have expertise in your exact need, they can recommend you to someone who does.

Julian used our time and his very well on elder law issues for my parents. He cuts to the chase, which I appreciate, when I am paying for his time. He gave us the necessary information, advice and instructions clearly and concisely, and answered all our questions thoroughly, while keeping the billable time to a minimum.
After the elderlaw issues were concluded, I engaged him again for some estate planning for myself. Another good experience.

We highly recommend Attorney Brad Newbolt and the Bradley W. Newbolt Law Firm. He will be honest with you, yes, an honest attorney!; he is responsive returning calls within 24 hours (and usually within minutes or an hour or two at most); his rates are very affordable especially considering the quality work he provides. We recommend that you make the Bradley W. Newbolt Law Firm your first and only stop for your legal needs; we did and we could not be more pleased.

I had some legal questions regarding an entrepreneurial venture I'm working on, and I got in contact with Royee. I was able to send my questions ahead of time to expedite the conversation, and the information I received was very helpful. He was honest about what he was able to answer and gave recommendations for other sources who might have more specific information (as my questions involved multiple aspects of the law). He was professional yet kind, and I am very appreciative for what he was able to help me with.

He is our family lawyer. He has always came through for us and we have had very satisfying outcomes. He is humble and he is direct. He is good in the courtroom. I wouldn't have any other lawyer represent me. I refer him to any of my in need of a lawyer friends. Very down to earth and straight forward. Very truthful and like I said direct, tells you how it is. Never sugar coats anything. But he gives his all for his clients and I have never seen or heard of a client walking away unsatisfied.

Jeff handled legal matters during the passing of my mother, and then recently matters of probate after the passing of my brother. Jeff was excellent. He was professional, explained options or procedures clearly, often received my phone calls immediately (or were promptly returned). Goals were met in a smooth and timely manner. Jeff is a comfortable, confident, and nice guy to work with.

I'm not just a friend of Michael's, I'm also a client. He has done a terrific job on my landlord/tenant dispute. It's not a multi-million dollar civil suit, but it might as well be. Legal issues over one's home are incredibly important, and if you're up against an unreasonable, terrifying landlord, you need a strong, fearless attorney to go to bat for you. A lot of attorneys might fold under the pressure Michael has received in my case, but Michael doesn't fold. I wouldn't worry about that disciplinary stuff. It was a trivial matter. Michael is as upright, congenial, and helpful as they come on this planet.

I just have a question about the 1 Star review posted here 8 months ago. I seems like there's a lot of responses from the owner at that time. So I'm wondering about the response to the 1 Star review. it's written "new phone who dis?" that seems so odd to me. but there's completely coherent reviews before and after this one bad review. can someone explain this to me? It's appears very disrespectful, but really I can't believe that it's an authentic response.

We had a wonderful experience working through the estate planning and medical assistance process for my parents while dealing with my father having Alzheimer's and moving him to memory care. They were so helpful and caring throughout the process. They have all the needed experience and knowledge to get through the process very smoothly. I highly recommend and they are worth every penny.

We were concerned about my mom's increasing care costs. We wanted to protect her, and ensure she continues to get the highest level of care. Safe Harbor to the rescue! As an employee of SHEL, I knew Asset Protection was an option. I also knew how wonderful my co workers are. It was a pleasure to see their amazing service as a client, too. Makenzie clearly explained all the documents we needed and gave great advice when dealing with the Social Security office became difficult. Attorney Michael Teeter was knowledgeable, patient and kind, making the complex issues easier to understand. I am relieved to have a roadmap to protect my family going forward. I highly recommend Safe Harbor.

Mark Kelly is a phenomenal attorney. His professional experience is outstanding he is knowledgeable and almost every area of the criminal defense that you could possibly imagine. He takes the time to answer your questions and to keep you at ease throughout the entire case. I think sometimes he even surprises himself. After my charges were dropped and my case was he went on and got my record expunged which helped so much in getting a job. My first background check I was biting my nails and it came back squeaky clean.
His crew is prompt and answer the phone right away, if they can't answer the phone they call you back within minutes. They all are on board they all are aware of what's going on and they are all professional.
I highly recommend Mark Kelly.

Mark Kelly and his team came highly recommended to me, and I want to do the same for others in need of a GREAT criminal defense attorney.
He stays in contact, excellent communication, and makes a very difficult situation as easy and convenient to deal as possible.
Bottom line are the results he gets. I was guilty of the allegations against me and the state was really trying to dish it out to punish me. 1. Mark kept me out of jail the entire time he fought for me. 2. He fought hard for me and successfully got everything down to only 2 days in the county and I am completely done.
Thank you Mark and Sawyer for all you did for me. Continue to fight for justice!

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.
