Real Estate Closings

Although many rely on the services of a title agent to handle their real estate closings, there are distinct advantages to having an attorney on your side of the table. Extensive knowledge of the law can work in your favor. We know the law and follow an ethical code established by the Florida Bar, so that you can depend on our judgment to protect your interests. On a practical level, an attorney may be able to provide on-the-spot services that a title agent cannot, including potential resolution of challenging problems, usually by drafting an affidavit, power of attorney or quitclaim deed. In addition, our attorneys are committed to finding the answer to most legal questions such as tax consequences of a sale, the impact of a survey or rights involving homestead property, thus avoiding possible delays at closing.
