If your real estate agent recommends this scum, run. They will protect the interests of the agent/real estate company...not you, the one who has hired them. Despite begging for help due to some shady business practices with EXP Realty, they refused to help me. They get super upset when you record conversations, too. There is only one reason for that: you have something to hide. Enjoy explaining these recordings very soon.

I would be nervous to have this group representing me, at least not when selling a house. Not only do they seem to do a sloppy job, but they don’t seem knowledgeable - and no one wants that when you are dealing with large amounts of money.
I originally did choose them to represent us for the sale of my home because they are covered under my legal plan. When I called, I made sure to confirm they would be covered. They confirmed. Well, after turning down the attorney our realtor referred us to, we decided to start the process with them.
First, the person who I started working with is a paralegal and not an attorney. That didn’t bother me bc I figure it would be like that in any other law office… but she started asking questions that made me question her competence. She kept asking my realtors for the closing date, which was directly written on the sales contract. Apparently, she just wanted to see if the closing attorney had scheduled it yet… but the sale process had only just began, it was strange that she would already ask for that.
While all that is going on, we get a sheet with some fees we had questions about. Turns out, our paralegal was out for half a week, so I called the main office. They had no idea what fees I would be charged. I was not given to someone who could handle any questions or issues while the paralegal was out, I was just told ‘who knows.’ You would think you would have someone cover for you while you are out in case your clients have any questions or to move things along. Not Soto Law.
The straw that broke the camel’s back for me was when the paralegal was finally in the office, she sent a group message saying we are not covered under my plan because it isn’t my primary residence - 2 weeks into hiring them. That is not acceptable. They have you send them your benefit number and sale contract before assigning you to a paralegal, so there is no excuse for not checking benefits at that time.
As it turns out, without asking us to confirm, they assumed that the property we are selling is an investment property bc we marked that it is not our primary residence. In actuality, we had to move before it was under contract so it was never a rental propert, it was just our previous primary residence. And bc my legal plan doesn’t cover rental properties, they said we were not covered.
By that point, I didn’t care that we were eligible for benefits, we decided working with this group would be much too risky and decided to go with attorney my realtor suggested. If they aren’t even aware that a second property doesn’t automatically mean it’s an investment property, or organized enough to verify benefits in a timely manner, I don’t have have much confidence something wouldn’t go terribly askew on one of the biggest sales in a person’s life.

We just closed on our first home with Soto Law and absolutely could not be happier with the experience. We ran into several hiccups and communications with our lending team. Emily Watson, the paralegal assigned to our closing honestly kept the whole thing together. She kept the process moving forward even when it appeared to be stalled. She was kind and patient with us, our realtor and the sellers’ realtor. Brad Watson, the attorney who performed our closing, was knowledgable and personable. He answered all of our questions in an easy to understand manner. Could not have asked for a better experience during such a stressful experience. Many thanks to all!

We used Soto Law to close on our first home and we are extremely grateful for their guidance and their patience in the process of getting to closing. Claudia was available to answer questions and the paralegal team was some of the best I've dealt with! If you're looking to close on your home, make sure to reach out to them for some incredible service.

I am a licensed real estate agent, I have been using soto law for many many years and I am happy with their services. their staff is so friendly and professional. What I love about them is that they are bilingual in spanish and english and my clients feel confident when having their representation and being able to understand everything they are signing as it is explained thoroughly. Love Belinda and Angela! I know that I can count on them with any questions and they will be answered, they are always very helpful!

I was a seller in this situation with this law firm. As a seller they hold your money and tell you that they're going to pay off whatever bills are owned that would affect the buyer but they do not. They tell you something's been paid numerous times when it has not. I would not recommend this place of business to anyone. The only people you can speak to are the receptionist that don't really care about anything that's going on.
