MULTI-STATE GENERAL PRACTICE OF LAW

Real Estate Transactions

• Real Estate Transactions deal with the buying, selling, exchanging, and gifting of real property. A real estate attorney reviews your contracts, negotiates on your behalf, and prepares and reviews documents which may include former deeds, title commitments, surveys, easements, transfer instruments, and financial obligations to name a few. In addition, a real-estate attorney represents buyers’ or sellers’ interests at closing.

• The purchase, sale, exchange, transfer, or gift of real estate may be one of the biggest financial decisions a client can make. This transaction may involve the need for variances, easements, property restrictions or the use of other avenues to accomplish your real property goals.

Traffic Citations & DUI/OWI

Foreclosure Defense

• Foreclosure defense involves defending a property owner against foreclosure.

However, with the uptick of foreclosure defense attorneys, that number is decreasing.

• An attorney can assist in making mortgage modifications, stalling foreclosure proceedings, or stopping them altogether. Kim Lewis has many years of experience in this field of law.
