In New York, you absolutely should have a real estate attorney review your purchase contract before you sign it. Real estate agents can’t provide legal advice, and standard contracts often contain clauses that heavily favor the seller. We’ve seen buyers lose thousands because they signed contracts without legal review. Issues like inspection contingencies, financing terms, and closing date penalties can be negotiated in your favor, but only if you know what to look for. The cost of legal representation is minimal compared to the financial protection you get.
Last-minute closing problems are more common than most people realize. Title issues, survey problems, or financing complications can derail a closing quickly. When you have an experienced real estate attorney, we can often resolve these issues the same day they arise. We have relationships with title companies, surveyors, and lenders that help expedite solutions. Without legal representation, these problems can delay your closing for weeks or even kill the deal entirely. We also know which issues are deal-breakers versus which ones can be resolved with proper negotiation.
Real estate attorney fees in New York typically range from $1,500 to $3,000 for a standard residential transaction, depending on complexity. This covers contract review, title examination, document preparation, and closing representation. Commercial transactions vary based on deal size and complexity. Most attorneys charge a flat fee rather than hourly, so you know your costs upfront. When you consider that we often negotiate contract terms that save you more than our fee, the legal representation pays for itself. We provide detailed fee estimates during your initial consultation.
Yes, we handle various property disputes including boundary disagreements, easement issues, and neighbor conflicts over property use. Many of these disputes can be resolved through negotiation rather than costly litigation. We start by reviewing your deed, survey, and relevant local ordinances to understand your legal position. Then we work toward a solution that protects your property rights without unnecessary legal expenses. When litigation is necessary, we have extensive experience with real estate disputes in Long Island courts. Early legal intervention often prevents small problems from becoming expensive lawsuits.
While the basic legal principles are similar, commercial real estate transactions involve more complex issues like zoning compliance, environmental assessments, lease negotiations, and business entity considerations. Commercial deals also typically involve larger sums and more sophisticated contract terms. We handle both residential and commercial transactions because the skills complement each other. However, if you’re buying commercial property, you want an attorney who regularly handles business real estate, not someone who only does residential closings. The stakes are higher and the legal issues more complex in commercial deals.
Most residential closings take 30-45 days from contract signing to closing date, assuming no major complications. Commercial closings can take 60-90 days due to additional due diligence requirements. The timeline depends on factors like financing approval, title search results, inspection outcomes, and document preparation. Having an experienced real estate attorney from the beginning helps prevent delays. We coordinate with all parties and identify potential problems early. When issues do arise, we resolve them quickly rather than letting them drag out the process. Clear communication and proactive problem-solving keep your closing on schedule.
