How to Hire a Real Estate Lawyer
Hire a real estate lawyer whose experience matches your transaction type — residential purchase, commercial lease, investment acquisition, and development each require different expertise. Confirm bar admission in the state where the property is located; real estate law is jurisdiction-specific and licenses do not transfer across state lines.

질문할 항목
초기 상담 시 이 질문을 던져 강한 후보와 약한 후보를 빠르게 구분하세요.
1.How many transactions of this type did you close in the past year, and in which jurisdictions?
왜 중요한가: Recent volume means current market knowledge. An attorney who closed 40 commercial leases last year knows current market terms; one who closed two does not have comparative context.
2.How do you handle title issues or unexpected encumbrances that arise during due diligence?
왜 중요한가: Reveals real problem-solving experience. Attorneys with clean-deal-only experience often escalate or delay when complications arise; experienced practitioners know resolution paths.
3.What is your typical closing timeline and what most commonly causes delays?
왜 중요한가: Delays in real estate transactions are expensive and sometimes cause deals to fall apart. Knowing the typical failure modes lets you plan contingencies and hold the attorney to reasonable timelines.
