When Do You Need A CA Real Estate Attorney?
You do have to be careful because there really are tons of quirks that are specific to California real estate law that are not typical in other states. There can be certain pitfalls that an experienced real estate attorney will help you avoid.
Simply put, there are a lot of scenarios where you may find having a real estate attorney in your corner is more than beneficial, it ends up being financially life-saving.
You may be in a situation where you have a real estate dispute, with a person or company. Perhaps you’ve been lied to, duped or deceived by a realtor, or home seller. There are so many layers to real estate law.
If you have a complex problem, or a legal issue where you just can’t figure out what to do, we excel in drilling down into your problem and finding the solution.
What Makes A Successful Real Estate Attorney?
The minutiae involved with interpreting complex real estate law or knowing when to argue, or how to prepare to do something very specific takes years of practice both academically and in the field. Our lawyers have both.
Our team succeeds because we are serious about the details of the law & aim to strike the balance between factors such as good judgment, smart strategy, strong performance and a winning mentality.
We know that we win by giving value back to the community, and by upholding the fairness & morality of the law.
There’s a difference between a lawyer that also does real estate law, versus a real estate lawyer who is specifically tied to the market of real estate,
Our attorneys are also comfortable in the fire so to speak. If it comes down to having difficult conversations, speaking with other attorneys, or going into bitter litigation, then so be it.
We have a ton of experience in uncomfortable situations, and could say that we know how to succeed regardless.
Why We’re A Highly Rated CA Real Estate Law Firm
A law firm succeeds because it focuses on providing a valuable service to a community of people, striking the balance between profitability for the company and affordability for the client, whilst remaining forever vigilant, and up to speed regarding all aspects of CA law.
For that reason, we are a highly rated law firm in Google among others, because our clients generally leave us after having had a good experience and favorable outcome. We choose our clients carefully specifically so that we’re able to provide this valuable experience.
We don’t take cases we won’t win, generally speaking. This is good for you, and for us because it won’t waste either of our time or money.
We will oftentimes give our clients a lot of help that allows them to solve their own problem or to go a different direction altogether.
Our lawyers love to “crack” the case, or solve a puzzle, but also to represent someone who is being unjustly treated and has a legitimate claim to make.
Our obligation is to the law and with that end in mind, we are forever students and practitioners of it for our clients, our community & our country.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is real estate law?
Real estate law governs laws and litigation which has to do with property – including buildings which are affixed to a particular piece of land. This might include homes, commercial property or other types of real estate.
If I have purchased a home and found that something inside the home was faulty when I purchased it, is there anything I can do about it?
Often times, the buyer will be offered a warranty policy by the real estate agency to cover certain losses incurred by that buyer. You should determine whether you were given or purchased a warranty policy at the time of the home purchase. If not, you may need to speak to a real estate law attorney.
If I am purchasing or selling a home, should I hire an attorney to oversee the process?
Since you will be signing contracts and a substantial amount of money will likely be involved, it is a good idea to hire an attorney to protect your interests and ensure that the entire process is legal and valid.
What should I make sure of when I am purchasing a home?
Although it's a great idea to consult an attorney before purchasing a home, there are several things you should make sure of. Make sure that all property which is supposed to go with the home is included in the contract. This may include appliances or other extras you were promised. You also want to inspect the damage report and look at the surrounding area.
What should I make sure of when I am selling a home?
You'll want to make sure that there are no claims or liens against your property and determine what items or property should be included in the sale. You will also want to consider your lowest desired price and what you're willing to accept. A property law attorney can oversee the process and protect your interests.
As a seller, are there any defects which I must disclose to the buyers before signing a contract?
You should disclose all defects; however it's very important that you discuss your options with an attorney. If there are defects in the home and you do not disclose them, you could find yourself in court.
Are there any tips the buyer should heed before purchasing a property?
The buyer should spend time in the neighborhood to determine whether he or she will be happy there. They should also make sure the home is inspected and that there are no major problems that will drive up the cost of the home. It's best to receive advice from a real estate law attorney before purchasing.
For a home being sold as-is who is responsible for major repairs?
Typically, for homes that are sold as-is, the buyer is responsible for all repairs which must be made. Again, speaking to an attorney is the best idea.
