Real Estate Law Lawyers

Real estate law covers more than just the drafting of contracts for the purchase and sale of real property. Attorneys in this field may handle leasing issues, landlord-tenant disputes, eviction proceedings and homeowner association (HOA) problems. Real estate lawyers that represent commercial interests may also focus on land use, zoning, environmental law, or eminent domain issues. Some states provide a certification for lawyers who have demonstrated experience and competency in the practice of real estate law.
