Took a gamble and picked Drew over my go to lawyer, it paid off. Drew took my personal injury case and it was like he had never took it off his desk, calling me constantly to tell me how good the case is looking for us. Ended up winning of course, it was such a breeze, Drew knows personal injury like its the back of his hand. Thanks Drew.

Jonathan recently handled the closing for our home. The transaction was very smooth. He and his team were very professional, responded quickly to all of my questions, and ensured that I knew what was going on through the process. His knowledge of real estate showed distinctly when working with the solar company (the home has leased solar panels) - he was able to negotiate the removal of a lien on the property to ensure that our lender was given first lien priority. He took the time to explain everything we had questions about at closing. In short, I would highly recommend Jonathan.

Attorney Trista Christensen represented me on a legal matter, which resulted in a very favorable and fair outcome for me. The qualities that make Trista stand out from all the rest, include but are not limited to: her high level of integrity, honesty, and transparency. She’s a straight shooter, which is tempered by her genuine compassion, sincerity, and respect for others. She knows the law, and is willing to take the time to explain things about the judicial system to her clients that is relative to their particular case, and in a way that for a layperson such as myself, makes perfect sense. Trista makes herself accessible to her clients in person, by phone, and email. Her response time through all measures of communication was both timely and helpful to me. Her fees were reasonable and appropriate. Trista’s area of expertise is broad based, including probate and real estate law which is this is good to know, in the event that I need to seek her legal expertise in other areas as well. In view of the above, I fully endorse Trista without any reservation whatsoever, and will not only seek her legal expertise in the future if I have a need to do so, but will also unhesitatingly refer family, friends, and others as well.

Edward (Teddy) got my case dismissed with tact and finesse. He is friendly, relatable, and easy to communicate with. Although mine was not a complicated case, anything can happen in a courtroom. As someone with thankfully very little experience with these kinds of proceedings, it brought me peace of mind to have him expertly leading the way. I couldn't be more thrilled with both the outcome and the experience working with Teddy.

My husband and I had an incredible experience working with Matt when we bought our house and sold our condo. He was deeply knowledgeable in all facets of the process, helped us through a variety of hurdles we ran into along the way with patience and understanding, and was unfailingly kind throughout the entire experience. Should we ever choose to buy or sell again we would reach out to him in a heartbeat, and we recommend him and his firm without reservation.

Dena Dionne is the best lawyer I've ever met! She's refuses to drop a case. I parked in her parking space, and she asked me to move. I said don't worry about it, we'll move. She spent the next 5 minutes berating me to get down to the bottom of it. She continued to question me when I moved my car around the corner. She is a relentless lawyer, who will not stop until she gets justice! She even took pictures of my license plate, meaning she does her homework. I am an upstanding citizen who rarely has trouble with the law. But next time I do, guess where I'm going.? Dionne & White! Sincerely -2pae73

My husband and I purchased a home in Gloucester while living in London and Ken handled all of the details for us along with our realtor. We have purchased many properties over the years with other lawyers and have not had the same experience that we had with Ken. Ken did an outstanding job throughly understanding our transaction and provided us council on the risk and opportunities with the transaction prior to finalizing. We felt that Ken took the time to understand our needs as clients and distance in our location made no difference to him. He was available for calls irrespective of time difference and never made us feel that is was an imposition. We would highly recommend Ken Chiarello. He is one lawyer that truly puts his clients first and treats every transaction with the importance that clients want.

When I got injured at work in 2020 I couldn't have imagined that I'd have over 8 surgeries in like 1 year or that I'd have multiple infections and blood transfusions, nor did I expect to go into AFib. I would never have assumed it would take almost 4 years to finally get to the finish line and reach a settlement with my former employer insurance. The settlement, by the way, was more than I could have imagined. Through all of this, the fine people at Pierce, Pierce and Napolitano were by side and in my corner. From my initial meeting with Allen who instantly made me feel confident I'd come to the right place to Grace and finally Dan who were both very professional, I can't say enough. Every step of the way I was educated on what was happening and every question I had was answered. I also have to extend a big thank you to the support staff, the ones you don't see who do case law research, paperwork, filing, etc. The entire firm is stellar. My family and I are so grateful for the time and effort given and we could not be any happier with the outcome. So, if you need a workman's comp attorney, which I hope you don't cause it means you're injured and that sucks, but if you do I implore you to contact Pierce Pierce and Napolitano. You'll be in the best hands you can be.

Excellent Massachusetts Lawyer I had a very difficult and technical case, and Attorney Patrick Regan and his team worked with me from day one. He took the time to explain to me what was going on, was straight forward and professional throughout the entire process, and I could tell that he really cared about me and what I was going through. In the end, Pat was able to get the Massachusetts Attorney General's office to dismiss my case. If you need a lawyer for yourself or someone you know, I highly recommend that you give Pat a call.

Attorney Muzio is handling a very difficult case for me. He has the utmost integrity, grace and fortitude in handling this difficult situation with my brother who has a brain disease. He is handling it with compassion while being efficient and effective. Those are qualities that show excellence regardless of any career. I will only seek him out and know that if he can not help me, he will be sure to direct me to an attorney with same caliber.

I have been dealing with Mr. Muzio for almost 3 years. He has me stuck between a rock and a hard place. His bills are not itemized with times so they are hard to follow. He has billed for a meeting that I had not approved and also for every little e-mail. He does not return phone calls and I do not always receive the appropriate documents. This is not an easy office to deal with or one that you want to get involved with. Overall, not a good experience.

I hired her for really easy case but she lost it. She stood in front of the judge with poor case study, poor negotiation skills, and no argument skills. The judge was surprised that she didn't make a look on my affidavit in advance. She wasn't prepared at all and cost me a lot.

Mr. Drucas told me that he would handle the closing on our home for $600 and said the cost shouldn't exceed that unless something unusual happened. When I received the closing documents, I saw that Mr. Drucas took several thousand dollars out at closing using his Power or Attorney. I called and he said he had to negotiate some items, but i was never notified of the negotiations or the increased charges, but had to find them on my own on the closing documents. The man is a crook. He knew we were moving out of state and took advantage of us. I filed a complaint with the bar but of course it was his story against mine. Hire him at your own risk.

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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
