Gregg guided me through a very difficult divorce. During an extremely challenging time in my life, Gregg always served as the one voice of competency and reason. He was extremely responsive, involved, caring, kind, and compassionate. Gregg went way above and beyond and always explained things in a way that made sense. If it weren't for Gregg, I truly don't believe that my divorce would have been settled. I am forever grateful to him and cannot recommend him enough. If you need a skilled, competent, involved attorney who will treat you with respect and empathy, he is your guy.

Immediately from the start I could tell this man was very organized and prepared, this divorce was a very stressful time for me and he made all that disappear from the very beginning. I would "STRONGLY RECOMEND" Mr. Franks services to anyone who may be in need of them, rest assured you will be in great hands, if I could give more than five stars I would.

My mother passed away last year and didn’t have a will unfortunately. My family and I hired Mr. Butterbaugh after he initially explained the process. We knew what to expect and always knew where we were in the process. It took time as expected but we eventually got through the process and we were able to get access to my Mother’s assets. Mr. Butterbaugh made it as smooth as possible and I highly recommend him if you find yourself in a similar situation.

I needed trust and will modifications and with the passing of my wife very recently, I'm so glad I did. David's efforts in taking the case through probate were extraordinarily efficient and I'm totally grateful for his professional efforts. He offered his professional services at a very efficient and financially responsible service. Greatly appreciated!

I was able to get through to this lawyer anytime I had a question or concerns I was able to connect to him quickly by phone, text message or email and get a fast response.

From a family perspective, he has helped with Divorce negotiations, Powers of Attorney, Estate Planning and Probate. His acuity, knowledge, courtroom, and negotiation gravitas in multiple legal disciplines was invaluable to our corporation and is still valuable to our family.

After seeing all the great reviews online for Mr. Woolley, I decided to call him regarding the possible need for probate for my mother's recent passing. I had to leave a voice message and he returned my call very quickly. He was very pleasant and asked me to explain my situation and describe my mother's estate. He was extremely helpful and based on the information I had given he did not feel there was a need for probate. There was one question I had regarding the filing of future taxes with the IRS, and not having a definitive answer, he referred me to his own CPA. I felt very comfortable talking with Mr. Woolley and if I ever need an attorney to handle future issues regarding probate, I will certainly use his services.

Does the word lawyer conjure up visions of a suit standing on top of something tall screaming at you? Lawyers who bill at $400+/hr even if a paralegal does most of the work? Thank goodness none of them bothered to return my call. Recently I had to go through the legal eviction process for the first time. Being naive cost me time, stress, and my tenant turned out to be quite cunning. Kent Ninomiya not only took my call, he offered free and sound advice prior to my retaining him. He returned calls/texts/emails promptly, won my case, saved me money, billed very fairly, and I would not of made it through the process without his legal and kind support.

I have had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Casey and utilizing his services during one of the roughest periods of my life. Mr. Casey has represented me during a rather emotionally turbulent divorce proceeding. He has always demonstrated the qualities of integrity, skill, and professionalism beyond reproach. He is a man of intelligence who is skilled in his craft as a litigator. I happened to have one of those "he said, she said" sort of scenarios with rather significant allegations. Mr. Casey was not phased by the task at hand. He was the best champion for my case I could ever ask for. His attention to detail was impeccable, and was able to illustrate for the court the inconsistencies in the testimonies of opposing counsel's witnesses. Mr. Casey has two rules: be kind and polite to his office staff, and be honest and forthcoming with information. He will not judge you. He WILL be your advocate. However you must realize he cannot effectively do what he needs to do without honesty from you as a client. He cannot know to much about your case. Even those parts which you might be ashamed of or embarrassed by. Mr. Casey has been a champion for my cause, a confidant, and a source of stability for me when my life was chaotic. He has held my hand as I wept both tears of joy and frustration. He has helped to not only improve my legal situation, but helped nourish my soul as well. He gave me one of the greatest gifts I have ever received; he reunited me with my children.

Gregory is unique in that his superior intellect and relentless work ethic render him more prepared and formidable than anyone. Before I met Gregory, I fired five lazy , incompetent lawyers who were good at nothing except sending bills ( and who ended up hurting my case multiple times through ignorance and/or negligence). After all this I found myself in negative territory. Unconstitutional and unethical judgement had been passed against my case based on 100 percent fabricated, as in unprovable “evidence”, producing disastrous ramifications. This was later confirmed by the appellate court. It seemed day by day the false and very toxic narrative was growing faster and deeper just like a cancer. At the advice of a friend, I went to see Gregory, and my life quickly changed. Within a short time, Gregory and his staff came to me with all the details of my life and what had happened related to my case before they took it over just as if they had lived it right there beside me . They knew the false narrative along with the real truth that was now buried beneath. In every hearing, deposition, pleading, etc. Gregory and his wonderfully astute staff were so well prepared, they left the other team of lawyers looking foolish. Gregory did some incredible things as mentioned below . These accounts illustrate just a few of the absurd conditions Gregory had to rectify. They serve as a testament to how bizarre the fight became. For example, without saying too much Greg very politely pointed out … let’s just say….” irregularities “ in some of the in the actions of the opponent’s nine lawyers. They must have agreed with him because within 24 hours all of them resigned. In another instance he proved in court in front of everyone that an arm of the court had committed perjury 3 times in statements against me . One could have heard a pin drop in that court room! He eliminated other questionable parties in a similar fashion. Once we had a level playing field the tide dramatically turned. In short , ( and very understated here) he won a very complicated custody battle ( spiderweb of lawsuits ) and in so doing changed the course our lives forever. Not only did he expertly mediate all the cases that needed to be settled ( a talent for which he is known), but in the final trial of the final case by using a very unorthodox approach, he sat back with his ingenious strategy and caused the opposing lawyers to unwittingly make it clear for all to see their dishonest assertions. He gave them just enough rope …. and made them regret it. Gregory possesses an extreme drive that causes him to work tirelessly but in the courtroom is where he shines the most with all his talent and brilliance are on full display. Some type of force comes over him and he OWNS the court room with everyone hanging on his every word. His direct and cross examination questions are expertly fashioned with surgical precision. Gregory ruthlessly destroys the opposing side by eloquently and craftily questioning the opposing side’s witnesses, beguiling and /or forcing them into admitting facts against their own side (even the EXPERT witnesses). His carefully chosen staff is perfectly organized ( very talented in their own right ) who deliver not only in the court room but in everything they do. They are armed with meticulous research to back up everything they say. Gregory, et al. could sense our feelings and know what it was like to walk in our shoes at every stage in the fight. Because he changed everything by removing my children from a very unhealthy situation, he is revered and adored by all my family and friends for his excellent judgment and dedication to doing the right thing ( as is all his staff). It’s not only the brilliance and dedicated hard work , it is his drive, passion and seemingly clairvoyant intuition that deliver the victories. Gregory is second to none and for that I am eternally grateful.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about this attorney and the people who work at his law firm. The S&N team went above and beyond to protect my daughter and me. When everything is on the line, this is who you want in your corner. Shamoun’s experience, legal expertise, strategic and highly aggressive approach are top level in every respect. He is one of the few that does what he says and has the ability to make things happen. His advice is invaluable. I would absolutely recommend him for any legal issue.

Money Law and Title have a great team to close on time all the time. The senior Title Officer, Cheryl Stephens, is super nice to return text or phone calls at any hours. Cheryl even went to my clients house to obtain their signature to close the transactions many times.

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.
