We had a fantastic experience working with Lotfi Legal regarding our immigration process! I came to our initial consultation with a complex situation and many questions after having done my own extensive research. Atty Fuchs found a path through to meet our goals that we didn't realize was available to us, which ultimately saved us many years and thousands of dollars compared to paths other attorneys were recommending. We worked together to file our applications quickly and were lucky to have full resolution of our case in a short timeframe. We couldn't be more grateful! It can be difficult to know who to trust regarding immigrations concerns and I cannot recommend Lotfi enough.

I had a great experience working with Andrew Rosenberg. I was dealing with an eviction and he took the time to spend 30 minutes on the phone with me, answering all my questions, and offering clear guidance—all at no charge. He even followed up by emailing me a form I needed. His generosity and professionalism really stood out, and I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of legal help. Thank you, Andrew, for going above and beyond! Elizabeth

Andrew was awesome… he took time to explain everything to us when setting up our Will and Trust. He didn’t rush and he took time to explain in detail and every scenario. We highly recommend Andrew…. As we chose him because of his reviews… they are absolutely spot on. Truly such an intelligent, honest nice guy.

I had initially contacted another law office, however, they wouldn't return my calls or respond to emails to set up the consultation, so, I contacted Sapinski Law Offices and I'm glad I did!
From start to finish, everything was explained, any questions I may have had were answered and most importantly, I had no stress during the process! I highly recommend Sapinski Law Offices. Thank you!

Rick Coad has been a patient, prompt, thorough and persistent representative of my interests in an insurance claim. He was reasonable and logical in his assessment. I was more than satisfied with his skills and the conclusion of the case. I would hire him again in a minute!

Richard Coad handled a matter for me that was unique, complex, and 20 years old. Something that had been nagging at me for two decades. Over the course of that time I had consulted with other attorneys and none of them had a clue on how to handle it, or had even heard of a situation like mine. When I reached out to Mr. Coad for guidance on my case he was in a remote area vacationing with his family but still took the time to respond. He seemed highly intrigued by my case and showed a genuine interest in getting me the result I wanted. Not only did he succeed in an honestly impressive manner, but he was always easy to reach and kept me well informed every step of the way. An outstanding attorney with a big heart and a pretty good sense of humor too.

We hired Atty. Zenk to prepare a trust for us. He clearly explained the various options and benefits for us. He was very thorough and included a number of other documents along with the trust for our elder years. Very professional and answered all our questions and concerns. Fees were clearly explained up front and we felt they were fair.

I live out of state and was in the middle of a transaction to buy a condo in Wisconsin when I realized I was making a horrible financial mistake. Some information had been withheld and some was coming in after my offer. In a panic, I called several Wisconsin real-estate attorneys to see if I could break the contract; Jason Greller was the only one to call me back. He listened and said it wouldn’t be easy as I had signed away basically all of my rights.
I hired him with little hope, but am so thankful I took that leap of faith. He was relentless in looking at every detail. He was honest and direct talking to me. Jason helped me to negotiate a mutually agreeable resolution with the seller. He was very fair in his charges; he earned every cent.
My only regret is not seeking Jason’s counsel BEFORE entering into the real estate transaction. I came to realize that not only does he have the expertise of the law concerning real estate and the knowledge of realtors in general, but using his services is a huge bonus as it takes the emotion out of the situation. He is truly working just for you.
My advice: Get a real estate attorney. It will save you money in the long run and you will undergo much less stress. You are paying him to protect you.
My many thanks and much appreciation to Jason Greller for his patience and expertise helping me.

Jason helped us buy our first home (and sell it 10 years later), and now he just helped us buy our dream home. We had an issue with our bank dropping the ball at the very last minute, which was very (very) stressful, and throughout it all Jason was a steady hand who helped keep things in perspective and on track. He's a good person and a great attorney with extensive experience (which comes in handy if something unexpected comes up). I highly recommend him to anyone buying or selling real estate in Madison.

We hired Jason Greller to guide us through the purchase of a privately sold home. As as a first-time home buyer, I wasn't clear what and when tasks needed to be completed. Jason efficiently organized the material and deadlines that ultimately got us to closing on-time with all required tasks completed. He was easy to work with, present but not omnipresent and holds a trove of information and insight valuable for the home buyer dealing with the myriad of issues that stand between the accepted offer and closing. If we were to do it over I would without question hire Jason again. He did an excellent job.

Attorney singleton is hands down the best attorney I've ever worked with. I was facing around 10 criminal felony charges and not my first time around the block. Mr singleton was amazing the entire ride. His knowledge and passion for his work is incomparable in and out of the court room. The fight that this attorney presents in court gave me reassurance that no stone would be left unturned and that's exactly what he did. In the end he got my case 100% dismissed. If your freedom is at stake, call this man and buy yourself some peace of mind.

Attorney Justin Singleton and Attorney Thomas James have been a great help in defending myself, family, and friends for almost 5 years. The Singleton Law Firm has always been fair, affordable, and has mounted several defenses that has been successful in proving the truth and protecting the innocence of their clients. I personally would recommend the Singleton Law Firm to anyone who has legal issues.

It’s pretty messed up to openly advertise that you offer, landlord tenant law options, but that you are always for the landlord and never the tenant. There’s a reason there’s a word called slumlord… We didn’t just pull it out of thin air. Imagine how many more customers you’ve lost for those stupid comments

Exceeded all my expectations in handling my traffic ticket. Mike was able to get a 15 mph speeding reduced to a no points equipment violation. All the other attorneys I spoke to about this said this prosecutor would never cut that deal, but Bayer Law got it done! Completely professional throughout. Mike was patient in answering all my questions and explaining the process. Just pay a simple flat fee and he takes care of everything else for you. I hope to never need a Wisconsin attorney again, but if I do, Mike will be the only one I call. Well done -- thank you so much for your valuable service!

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.

To ensure you’re hiring a reputable real estate lawyer, take these steps:

- 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.

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.

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.
