We were dealing with a difficult issue with our neighbor and the property line between us. It was becoming more volatile as the issue progressed and we needed legal assistance. It was at this time when we started to work with Josh and he was fair, competent and went the extra mile for us. Josh maintained communication with us frequently and updated us on our case. When we had a concern or another incident occurred with our neighbors, he was available and able to provide us with sound advice. I would highly recommend him to others, including friends and family.

I found Josh online and reached out to him for a short notice real estate agreement that I needed to prepare and review. He did an amazing job, faster than we initially discussed, and available for multiple interactions. He also provided very thoughtful ideas and comments on the structure of the agreement which was highly valuable. I would definitely recommend him!

Josh assisted me with some easement concerns on a home I purchased. He was very efficient and knowledgeable about the issue and was able to explain multiple ways to address the issue. His rate was fair and well worth the knowledge I gained from working with him. He is very professional and great to work with. I would highly recommend him for your real estate needs.

Josh was incredibly responsive, professional, and knowledgeable when I hired him to help me through a residential home purchase without the use of realtors. He was fast and efficient, but took the time to explain the more complex topics to me. Will definitely hire him again!

We engaged Josh to draft a contract for a FSBO home purchase. We were first time home buyers navigating the process without a RE agent, and Josh went above and beyond to draft our contract quickly and work with us to understand each element of the agreement. Josh is highly knowledgeable and gave us the confidence to move through the process without any issues. I will definitely reach out for any RE legal matters in the future.

Josh was great! He assisted with a residential property sale, and although his involvement was minimal due to the nature of the transaction, he helped with reviewing contracts as well as providing insight and feedback that was helpful for the deal. Thanks for the help Josh!

I reached out to Josh for help with an off market real estate acquisition, more specifically drafting and negotiating the contract. The seller was a foreign investor and his lawyer was clearly not a real estate attorney. Josh was incredibly knowledgeable, regularly available, had great communication skills and offered a wealth of information, explaining clauses and/or issues in plain english terms. He also worked with the non-real estate attorney to address his / the seller's issues, pushing back on the many non-standard requests for changes to the contract. He was instrumental to getting the deal closed quickly. I highly recommend Josh to anybody needing real estate related legal services.

How do I choose a lawyer?

Consider the following:

Comfort Level
- Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?

Credentials
- How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?

Cost
- How are the lawyer's fees structured - hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?

City
- Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?

Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?

Here are a few to get you started:

  • How long have you been in practice?
  • How many cases like mine have you handled?
  • How often do you settle cases out of court?
  • What are your fees and costs?
  • What are the next steps?

Want to check lawyer discipline?

It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:

  • Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
  • Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
  • Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
