Real Estate Law attorneys sitting down and signing contractsReal Estate Law

Kaplan Law Practice LLC  provides vigorous and competent legal representation in all areas of real estate transactions. Whether you are a small-time investor signing your first commercial contract, a novice homebuyer or a seasoned businessperson, you will need a good lawyer to represent you during your real estate purchase, sale or conveyance. Kaplan Law Practice is the best way to get understanding, detail oriented, and competent representation.

Real estate purchase, lease, or sale is a complex transaction. If you are the buyer or the seller in a real estate transaction, and especially a buyer or seller of a residential home, you have  the most to lose or gain in the transaction.

Every real estate transaction has many distinct parts and stages, including getting the real estate “under contract”, seeing through all conditions or work that must be done and “closing” the deal, when the real estate actually legally becomes the buyers or the lessee’s. There are also  many players, individuals, and corporations involved in typical real estate transactions, including real estate agents for both the buyer and the seller, attorneys for both the buyer and the seller, a home inspector for the buyer, mortgage companies and more. This can make real estate transactions appear even more complex, as each party attempts to represent their client.

Especially for residential buyers and residential homeowners who are selling their real estate , a real estate transaction can represent  one of the most notable and memorable life events. The legal aspects of the purchase can be stressful and time consuming. You need an experienced real estate attorney who will be attentive to all of your legal needs. In fact, recognizing the complexity of real estate transactions, the State of New York (amongst several other states) requires a buyer or seller to have an attorney for the closing of a real estate deal. Although not all states require the buyer and  seller to have a lawyer

    Joshua Kaplan came immediately to the hospital when my relative was in an accident and was very helpful in expediting necessary documents which ultimately gave me the power to save My Godmother's life as she needed emergency life saving surgery and did not have a health care power of attorney prior to this accident. Mr. Kaplan was very professional as well as very caring and extremely helpful in this very stressful situation. I would highly recommend Mr.Joshua Kaplan for his legal expertise and cannot praise him enough for all his help.
