I was very pleased with Mr. Cantys performance as an attorney. I sought out a competent attorney to assist me with getting the appropriate education that my child deserved for being neglected in the public school system for years. Mr. Canty allowed me to express myself and he has shown compassion for my child and allowed her to express what she wants for herself. He has attended the school and sat at the meetings when he didn't have to be in attendance. He walked me through step by step explaining the procedures of how the public school system did not want to pick up incurred cost due to their negligence, and was very cordial with the public school system even when they weren't. Mr. Canty continued not to get impatient when trying to fulfill my wants and needs for my child. My final meeting lasted approximately two hours and within that time I came out very pleased. Not only did this attorney know what he was doing, but my child is receiving an excellent education in a private placement. I definitely recommend Mr. Canty for his excellent services, his patience, and understanding. My child walks with her head held high because she now knows that she is receiving the best thanks to Mr. Canty.

When Hurricane Sandy came through our area, my family and I , along with many, many others were in serious trouble. This area was a mess. Growing up in Florida, it was obvious that Long Island was not prepared nor equipped to deal with this type of storm!! Getting cleaned up, having our electric restored was a very long and slow process, but we started to come back to somewhat of a "normal" situation a couple of months after the storm. We had insurance, and went through the process. SBA loans were available unfortunately we used this option, because the representatives from the SBA who were processing the loans gave a lot of people the wrong information, and we are going to pay for that for many, many years to come. Honestly, again after spending most of my life in Florida the way the storm was handled by insurance companies, and then the state ( NY Rising) it was confirmed that a category one storm with a 8 to 10 ft storm surge was out of the ordinary for this area, and was not something that could have been handled. Unfortunately, I have been through quite a few large hurricanes, and have never experienced anything close to this. About a year after the storm my dad advised me about a law firm that he spoke to that was assisting people in this area to financially be made whole again. So without expecting much I contacted them. I had the consultation over the phone, sent the paperwork they requested, and met with representatives and inspectors from the law firm. What I saw then was nothing short of amazing . It was like they were trying to rebuild their own home !!!! They were constantly in contact with me, did exactly everything they said they would, and were very thorough in every aspect of the case. I met a gentleman named Nick, he and his team were handling my case, and they were fantastic. Have you ever called a bank , credit card company, etc ? And you left a message that fell into a "black hole" and you had a better chance of getting hit by lightning then receiving a call back ? Well this wasn't like that at all, when you called for something, they answered the phone, i think in the almost 2 years that this process took, i maybe had to leave 2 or 3 voicemails, they were right there. I haven't had to many experiences dealing with law firms, but if they were all like this the world would probably be a better place, it was so nice to see people have pride in what they do, especially in today's age!!!
All I can really tell you is, I'm not sure exactly what other areas of law that Weisbrod Matteis & Copley handle , or if you now or in the future might need an attorney, but if you do call these people. Because, I don't write reviews at all (as you can probably tell) but if you have the same experience I did which I'm sure you will, then you will be writing one too!! This law firm is absolutely the way to go !!

Roxan assisted me with the sale of my home when the buyer failed to disclose a part of their financing package which involved additional requirements placed on me as the seller. When repeated attempts to resolve the issue with the buyer's agent were blatantly ignored, I ended up hiring Roxan to assist. Her demand letter and subsequent negotiations with the buyer and his agent were on point and lead to a positive result for me in that I received additional money at closing and my attorney's fees paid from the buyer's agent.
When you choose to work with someone without referral off of the internet, you never really know what you will get, but this was a very positive experience in the middle of a deal that had gone awry.

Jessica Adler provided great value to me during my consultation with her. She is very experienced and very good at communicating. I met with her because I needed to file some paperwork with the DC court system and she provided excellent instructions and tips. My paperwork was accepted without any glitches thanks to Jessica. I felt that her fee was a little high at first, but she graciously pro-rates the time spent together, so I walked away feeling that I had paid a fair amount. It was time well spent.

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, itâs 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 lawyerâs 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 lawyerâs 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 attorneyâs 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 youâre 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 youâre 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 lawyerâs website or LinkedIn profile for information about their experience in real estate law and any relevant cases theyâve handled.
- Membership in professional organizations: Lawyers who are members of respected legal or real estate organizations, like the American Bar Associationâs 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.
