I contacted Mr. DeCicco regarding a family matter with one of my daughters. The reason for my five star rating is because of not only his knowledge, but his calm and reassuring manner. I didn’t feel like just another client or case I truly felt like I was the only person that mattered. I would highly recommend this law firm. Thank you so much Joe, you helped Dave, Sadie and I threw a very difficult time.

I hired Bryan for a real estate closing in the Waterbury area.?We had to close in a short time and Bryan did a great job working with the selling agent and mortgage company to get everything closed on time. Both my loan officer and agent were impressed with how well Attorney MaEntee handled his business.

Bryan was outstanding to work with. We worked on a closing for a commercial business where the process was tedious and long. He was thorough in making sure my interests were protected at all times. Communication was top notch and I was able to talk with him at every opportunity during the entire ordeal. Highly recommend.

My husband and I recently had some hardships and had to file for bankruptcy and foreclose on our home. Attorney Antonacci and his colleagues were there for us every step of the way. I tend to ask a lot of questions and second guess things, but everyone from the office was very informative, and they always answered any questions we had. They even took care of a real estate matter for us after our hearing. I have referred a friend to them, and she is very happy also. I would, and do, recommend Attorney Antonacci to anyone who needs a Bankruptcy or Real Estate lawyer.

I had only heard good things about Attorney Rossetti prior to contacting the office with my issue and true to form, that's exactly what I experienced. He came highly recommended by other attorneys for his special skill set and now i know why. I couldn't be happier. Straightforward, honest, exacting, easy to talk to and of course, excellent results. Highly recommended.

I have been having a lot of trouble with finding direction with a case. I have tried so many different lawyers and have not had any help at all. I simply called looking for any advice I could get. I was directed to Andrew S. Marcucci where he looked up any information he could to simply give me some direction. I am very appreciative for the help! Although I was not able to go through with this law firm he really showed that he cared.

In 2013, I made the unfortunate mistake of hiring Pullman & Comley for legal services. I was immediately charged a $7500 retainer and attorney Alan J. Sobol began representing me defending a case. What I did not know was that another Pullman & Comley attorney, D. Robert Morris, was already representing the other side, the prosecuting authority, which had brought the false charges against me. Alan J. Sobol basically pretended to be actively fighting the case for me, when he was really working against me. Sobol provided false information to me and to the court on multiple occasions. Over the next 2-year period, I endured an excessive amount of over 20 court dates, which were mostly postponed due to Sobol making private agreements with the prosecutor behind closed doors. One of those unethical activities was when Alan J. Sobol and Pullman & Comley negotiated with the prosecutor to remove a legal defense fund. How and why would the prosecutor and defense attorney feel the need to negotiate the removal of a client’s legal defense fund? During the 2-year period I was slammed with approximately $40,000 in fees charged by Pullman & Comley and Alan J. Sobol. The $40,000 in funds were effectively scammed by Pullman & Comley, due to the conflict of interest that they failed to disclose. After being provided no evidence of the accusations and mounting legal fees I requested that Sobol provide me with a copy of the police report. Sobol refused to provide it, which is very suspicious because Sobol supposedly had no problem with that report being given to the press. I later found out that the police report was actually being withheld because the report would reveal that charges were being fabricated against me with the assistance of Alan J. Sobol and Pullman & Comley. Alan J. Sobol and Pullman & Comley engaged in fraud by hiding critical documents from their client's access, such as law enforcement reports. Alan J. Sobol only became involved in this case to invade my privacy and to prosecute me from within his position as the defense attorney.
Sobol’s lies and false information filed adversely affected me and effectively denied me the Constitutional right to due process. Judge Norko and subsequent Judges postponed the alleged misdemeanor case hearings approximately 15 times over the last 3 years. Sobol lied to his client and claimed that the judge was sick. During the course of these hearing absolutely no evidence of wrongdoing was obtained by Sobol or presented by the prosecution. These postponements caused unnecessary and unwanted travel to and from New York, causing loss of work and travel expenses. These unethical postponements based on a fabrication of illness of a single solitary Judge happened approximately 15 times. As you know, the excessive number of postponements resulted in many hours of unnecessary and excessive legal billing. This also prevented due process and justice. Sobol purposely provided false information and incorrect legal advice to his client, to illegally lure his client over state lines to a consultation meeting, which resulted in arrest, and has since developed into a catastrophe. Sobol did not appear in person to represent me properly in any way and he did not even appear or arrange for a substitute attorney to appear at a consultation meeting he scheduled and which resulted in my arrest. This facilitated attorney Sobol’s scheme to secure about $40,000 in fees while withholding crucial police reports from me for an extended period of time. In 2015 I fired Pullman & Comley, but I had already been scammed out of approximately $40,000 in unnecessary legal fees. Anyone considering hiring an attorney should take this as a warning and prevent Pullman & Comley and crooked attorneys like Alan J. Sobol from taking advantage of you.

I hired Tim to represent me on a "gun possession" charge which was a BB Gun. My brother gave him the legal precedent to have the case thrown out and he never once scheduled a meeting with us. Did not return my calls or texts. Just went to court, got continuances, and told me see ya later. No strategy, No compassion, just out for the money.

We hired Tim to defend my case. His communication skills are awful. He barely returned any phone calls or texts. He left me in court alone with no representation. We asked multiple times for a sit down with Tim and got nothing. He never explained our case to us or sat down to investigate anything. Hire this man if you want to waste your money and end up hiring another lawyer anyway. We asked for some of our money back and he told us to get lost.

A family member hired this attorney under the impression he was a worker's comp attorney and after 5 years he has yet to get her case resolved. He never returns her calls and his secretary is left to answer my relatives calls and at times doesn't even allow my relative to go inside the office. Unprofessional! I am baffled that it has been so long and he has yet gotten anything resolved. If he is not a worker's comp attorney, why would he take a worker's comp case???? Isn't this unethical?

Called to hire for representation in “open and close” small claims case and after taking my information I am told by the lady who answered the phone “he will only represent you if you pay by the hour” I asked what the hourly fee is and then immediately I’m told “the attorney isn’t interested in helping you.”
Very unprofessional.

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.
