When buying or selling property in Maryland or DC, you’ll need several key legal documents. This includes a purchase agreement that outlines the terms of the sale, a deed that transfers ownership, title documents to confirm the property is free from legal claims, closing statements detailing financial arrangements, and legally required disclosure forms to inform the buyer of any property defects.

Protecting your rights starts with having the right legal team. Our Real Estate Lawyers review contracts, uncover hidden risks, and ensure your interests are fully protected. You should also perform thorough due diligence—research the property, review the title history, and understand local zoning laws. And most importantly, document every communication and agreement related to the transaction.

A commercial lease is more than rent and square footage—it’s a legal tool that either protects your business or leaves it exposed. Review rent terms, maintenance responsibilities, renewal options, use of premises, repair obligations, and exit clauses. If any term feels unclear or restrictive, don’t sign until we’ve looked at it.

Don’t rely on templates or generic forms. Your contracts should be customized for your specific transaction and location.  Our Real Estate Lawyers draft and review every agreement to ensure it protects your interests and complies with Maryland and DC laws. You should also read every clause carefully, and if you don’t fully understand it, we explain it to you—line by line.

They assume the paperwork is “standard.” There is no standard deal when it comes to protecting your investment. Bad documents lose deals, weak leases leave you exposed, and missed details cost money. We structure every document to reflect your goals and protect your business.

Even “simple” real estate deals come with complex risks. If you want to avoid hidden liabilities, bad terms, or expensive mistakes, the short answer is yes. Our Real Estate Lawyers  ensures your contracts are sound, your rights are protected, and your investment is secure.

Residential deals focus on personal property purchases like homes or condos. Commercial transactions involve property for business or investment use—office spaces, storefronts, mixed-use buildings. Commercial deals carry higher risk, more complex contracts, and stricter legal requirements. That’s where we come in.

Absolutely. Shared ownership without clear, customized agreements is a lawsuit waiting to happen. We draft and review partnership agreements, joint venture contracts, and operating agreements to protect your investment and your relationships.

Disputes over property boundaries, title defects, or contract breaches can surface after closing. If that happens, you need legal representation to resolve the issue quickly—through negotiation, legal action, or enforcing the protections built into your deal.

Zoning restrictions can prevent you from using a property as intended. We help you review zoning laws, apply for exceptions or variances, and appeal zoning decisions to protect your right to use your property strategically.

Yes. Shared spaces often come with vague lease terms, hidden costs, and unclear maintenance responsibilities. We review your lease to ensure you know exactly what you’re responsible for—and what protections you have.

It depends on how your contract is written. Well-drafted agreements include clear contingency clauses that allow you to terminate under specific conditions—like failed inspections, financing issues, or title defects. Without those protections, backing out could cost you.

If title defects, liens, or ownership disputes are uncovered, we address them before closing. Sometimes that means negotiating title insurance exceptions, other times it means pausing the deal until the issue is resolved. The key is knowing before you sign.

Purchasing property through an LLC or corporation adds a layer of legal protection. It shields your personal assets from liability related to the property. But it only works if the entity is properly formed and maintained—which is why we structure that for you.

Lease amendments often seem harmless—but small changes can create big risks. Pay attention to new obligations, rent increases, hidden maintenance costs, or changes to your exit options. We review every word to protect your business before you sign.

The earlier, the better. We add the most value before you sign anything—when there’s still room to negotiate, restructure, or walk away if the deal doesn’t serve you.
