Mr. Paul saved my life and my career in Unit States by helping me to fighting with my case, Since my girlfriend and I are both very emotional, we had a minor argument while driving and ended up being involved with the police because of some conflicts. However, due to some misunderstandings, the police arrested me and defined it as domestic violence. This was a shame for me and I stayed in jail for a night. Finally, since I was not familiar with Salt Lake City, I randomly made a few calls to local law firms. Finally, Mr. Paul was very patient in helping me and my girlfriend what to do when he received my call for the first time. In the end, the case was dismissed, and he used the shortest time to do more efficient things. And when he has time, he will teach me like an elder.

I used a previous lawyer to handle my case when I was charged with my crimes. Lawyer was alright but never answered my calls or questions. Went to get my record dismissed same thing happened calls and appointments were missed. So I found Paul. Every time I called he answered. All my questions were answered. He was fast and effective. He’s a genuine guy that actually cares and will do his best for you. Thanks Paul.

I would give a negative 5 stars if possible. This is worst law firm. I had to get a new attorney because they lied and didn't do anything. For years. They cost me thousands in my settlement because of way they handles case at first.

Chad handled my disability claim with the social security office after they had turned me down. He was easy to work with. Very thorough and patient. He put a lot on hours in on my behalf. Explained the process well, answered my questions, and kept me informed as to what was happening with my case. He even assisted me in getting up to Salt Lake for my hearing. It was a pleasure to work with him.

Acudí para un divorcio, le pagué $800, le envié los documentos firmados, le pregunté sobre cómo iba mi caso y de ahí me bloqueó.
Simplemente solicité información en que si se llevó a cabo o seguimos casados legalmente.
Nunca más me respondió.
Ya estoy viendo otras opciones mejor para llevar mi caso.

I did a lot of research and calls while searching for a lawyer. Once I spoke with Isaac, I knew he was going to be the one I hired. He was immediately interested in my case and asked all the questions the other lawyers didn't. He truly made me feel like he cared about my situation and his goal was for things to end in my best interest. It was a long process, but he and Kellie kept me updated as much as they could. Isaac was knowledgeable and efficient, he did everything he could to provide me the best service at the best cost. 10/10 recommend and I would hire him again in a heartbeat.

Kyler helped our company with our corporate formation and continues to help with other legal issues as they come up in the ongoing operations of our business. He's honest, friendly, meticulous, and a great partner to have. He's gone out of his way to help on numerous occasions and continues to do so. I'd recommend him to anyone.

I just wanted to personally thank Kyler McCarty for his expertise and help he rendered to me when my company was struggling to a substantial debt from another business. Kyler never made me feel inferior or that I was just a number. He looked at the challenges facing my company and helped guide and direct me to get a quick result that I was not able to do myself after months of trying to do so. One of the great things about Kyler is his ability to use the resources around him. Often lawyers come acrossed as know-it-alls, but Kyler was different. While he has a great amount of knowledge and understanding of the legal system and how to operate there in, he also is not affraid to call on someone in his firm or his vast network of professionals to make certain his advice is sound. Kyler is an AMAZING lawyer and I will certainly be doing all my business with him. Thank you Kyler McCarty you have earned a client for life!

WOW what to say about this law firm. How about every lawyer joke written!?!?
These guys are liars, unprofessional, disrespectful, arrogant to any one that isn't rich or part of their clubs, and will play the victim card when it suits them after being tone deaf to your situation.
I hired them when I was out of state working, and was a telephone client only and didn't, they didn't have the respect to have me come into the office when I got back into the state a week later. Don't do that!!!! You have to show up to these guys office and look them in the eyes for them to probably take you seriously. They will do the typical Utah bubble state attit of taking your politeness for being weak and don't realize the other side of you is a monster that has been pushed to the edge by the very family that you are asking for their help to fight.
I gave them a specific 6 week time line of being in Utah between jobs and they assured me that they could get things started. Had to call them 2 weeks of being in state, which took 2-3 and talking to different guys named John, so confusing later on when trying to find the right lawyer. Talked to John 2 great conversation and gave me hope and was excited that I hired these guys. Told me he would call me the next day Friday or Monday. Took off for 3 weeks without saying a word. Called a week later figuring things got busy. Called in look for John? On a Friday. Told me John1 leaves for half day Friday. Email John?1/2, tells me he is dealing with a family emergency and call me Monday. Next Friday write an email asking what's up, and the phone call, told again next Monday. Tuesday call the law firm to find out John2 is who I am dealing with and he is out of state for a family emergency and he will back Friday continues for another week.
The last week I have in town John2 calls and the first minute I can tell I was getting the brush off after being ghosted for 4 weeks. During the conversation he twisted and was tone deaf to my 16 years of being broke and on the verge of suicide trying to deal with my family in a civil and orderly way that society says you should try first instead of having to sue your family, so you can still have a family after all the dust is settled. Even after the 2 most abusive people in my family died suddenly of mysterious natural causes that can only be explained as irony of the universe. The abuse continues by aunts and uncles. But how do you deal with a family that lies, cheats and steals from each other my whole life.
The Arrogance of these lawyers made me want to show up and scream in their face so they would actually listen to me as a customer/client. It took everything not to the last week not to show up. I wanted to go back to work.

Chris Guymon did an Amazing job. He did mediation for My Ex and I 100% hands down would recommend him. He is very professional and worked well with us. He never was siding with anyone and completely stayed on track. If We needed something changed, he was quick to get it done and contact us both so we both knew what to expect. if there were things we didn't agree on he was able to explain things well enough we could agree on.
I would highly recommend him and his firm!!!! for any of your legal needs.
Thanks, Chris

I love how Michael thinks! He comes up with creative solutions, seeing ways around problems and finding solutions. In writing real estate contracts he is able to think of all the "outs" we need for due diligence. He's responsive and makes time for you. His understanding of real estate is vast and he's truly an expert at his craft. Thanks Michael!

I didn’t retain Andrew, however I was really drawn to his location. Easy and lots of parking. I didn’t think about it at the time, but probably on site security for the college as well. Andrew does not have a legal aid or paralegal, so that might be a bummer trying to get things done if he’s in court. Today he answered my questions himself - not to voice mail. Top notch

There is no better person or professional to help someone through a divorce. Andrew is the consummate professional. His honesty, candor, passion and compassion should be held in high regard and separate him from the rest of the profession. From day one he had mine and my son's best interest at heart when fighting for us and helping me decide what would be best for us in the long run. He will always tell you the pros and cons of any decision and let you decide but will make sure you know what it means. I could never have imagined having such a good person helping me through an incredibly difficult time. Don't even think twice, if Andrew says he can take you on as a client, do it.

We had the best experience with Sean Sullivan. Though estate planning has to be somewhere high on the list of least-pleasant experiences--I’m thinking root canals and colonoscopies--Sean actually made the process enjoyable. No anesthetic required! He’s extremely patient and thorough, and we are so happy that we followed up on our friend’s recommendation to work with him and his firm. He even advised us on a related legal issue, all for the same quoted price, which was very reasonable. Brindley Sullivan definitely deserves five stars. Thanks, Sean!

Durham Jones & Pinegar is a law firm of great integrity and, over a thirty year period, has performed our family’s legal work in a very competent manner. We have used Durham Jones & Pinegar’s legal assistance in business contracts, formation of LLC's, and estate planning.
Terry Wade has overseen our business legal activities and made sure that the attorneys with the right technical background have assisted where appropriate. Matt Hafen has done considerable legal work for our Foremaster Family over the past three or four years. We have found Matt to be a very capable attorney who is both thorough and responsive in his work. He is by nature a considerate person who listens well and patiently replies to one's concerns. During our interactions, we were given every opportunity to provide input and were more than satisfied with the end product. If you are looking for a cocky attorney who will try to dominate the conversation, then Matt is not for you. However, if you want a dignified, well-reasoned attorney who will provide quality work, he will very much fit your need.

Alec is the best immigration attorney I have come across in my 15 years dealing with immigration attorneys. I am so grateful to him because he took me under his wings when my previous attorney botched up my case and had an rfe on my application.
I was blessed to have found Alec. I could see the difference right away in his approach. He was so knowledgeable and meticulate in his response that we got the case approved with no challenges. Since then he has been my attorney and has helped me numerous times.
I am forever indebted to him. I could vouch on his expertise . If you hire him he will get you the best results .

Walter represented me in a medical malpractice case. My wife and I immediately felt good about him. He was always professional and polite. He was really good about educating us on the situation and explaining things for us in a way that didn't feel condescending at all.
We settled the case before we went to trial and felt very good about everything Walter was able to do for us. We felt like he cared, and just overall was a very nice, genuine guy who was there to help us in matters we were not capable of doing ourselves. Walter called when he had questions about details to make sure he had it right, so he could be as prepared as possible. He worked very hard on my case and was very well educated in his field. I always felt 100% confident in him and I feel very thankful to him and the DKOW firm.

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.

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.
