Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation Criteria for Real Estate Lawyers

First, we analyze the firm’s understanding of general real estate issues. Is the firm knowledgeable and able to provide sound legal advice as to the buying and selling of real estate?  Can the firm deal with lawsuits against insurance companies for failure to provide the service being paid for?

Next we focus on the firm’s handling of real estate transactions.  Are the attorneys able to work efficiently with buyers and sellers to ensure that transactions will go through smoothly and that both parties are covered under the terms?

Another aspect of our evaluation reviews the firm’s understanding of zoning issues.  We assess the attorneys work with clients and zoning commissions in order to assist their client and to allow property to be purchased or developed based on the client’s needs.

We then analyze the firm’s history of working with property foreclosures and a client’s inability to pay for the property.  Does the attorney work with banks to help resolve issues with borrowed money and to prevent a property from being sold?

Lastly the final focus we analyze deals with commercial real estate. Does the firm ensure that businesses are following restrictions and to give legal advice to businesses over their real estate?  How knowledgeable is the firm in regard to the special regulations and codes that businesses have to follow?
