Frequently Asked Questions

A real estate lawyer ensures all documentation is legally sound, conducts proper title searches, addresses any issues that could affect property ownership, and protects your financial interests throughout the transaction. Without legal representation, you risk costly mistakes and future legal complications.

Ideally, consult with a lawyer before signing any binding agreements. However, we can still provide valuable assistance even if you’ve already signed a purchase agreement. Earlier involvement allows us to review terms, suggest modifications, and ensure your interests are protected from the start.

Title insurance protects against legal defects in the property’s title, such as liens, encroachments, or errors in public records. A home inspection evaluates the physical condition of the property. Both are important but serve different purposes in protecting your investment.

During closing, we review all final documents, ensure funds are properly transferred, register the deed and mortgage, and deliver keys and ownership to you. We handle these complex steps to ensure a smooth transition of ownership.

Generally, this creates a conflict of interest. At Doss Law, we prioritize your specific interests and recommend separate legal representation for buyers and sellers to ensure each party receives dedicated advocacy.

Bring your purchase/sale agreement, mortgage pre-approval or commitment, identification, and any correspondence related to the transaction. This helps us efficiently assess your situation and begin preparing your file.
