Commercial & Residential Real Estate
Using A Real Estate Attorney-
Residential -
A lawyer can help you through the home buying process by preparing or reviewing the purchase contract, advising you about financing and title insurance, answering your legal and tax questions, and arranging for the documents necessary to complete the purchase. When you first visit a lawyer, you can ask for an estimate of legal fees and closing costs.
You should consult a lawyer before you sign a contract to buy a home. Although a printed form may be used for the purchase contract, your lawyer can make changes that protect you. For example, a change in the form may give you the right to cancel the purchase (and get a refund of your deposit) if you obtain an unsatisfactory inspection report.

Heilig Branigan LLP will represent you in all aspects of a real estate closing. We work with clients and realtors to draft and review contracts and amendments.
Our attorneys are available outside of regular business hours to cater to your schedule. We coordinate with mortgage lenders to ensure that loan commitment dates are met and title searches are completed early in the process so that title issues can be resolved prior to closing. At the closing, we take the time to explain all costs involved in the transaction and the legal significance of the deed, the loan documents, and title insurance.
