Working with a Real Estate Lawyer - or a Real Estate Agent?

Real estate agents handle many issues involved in a real estate transaction, but most are not attorneys, and may be unaware of all the legal issues involved in the terms and conditions of a real estate contract.

Our attorneys, however, are. When we represent you, our main concern is what is in your best interests. If a clause in a purchase agreement exposes you to unwanted liability, we'll tell you. We'll provide you with the information you need to protect yourself, regardless of whether or not it convinces you to close the deal.

Our firm handles all aspects of real estate work, both commercial and residential. We have been doing so here in the Peoria area for over 50 years. We represent buyers, sellers, contractors, subcontractors, vendors and lenders. Members of our firm have taught and authored works on aspects of real estate practice. We can bring that breadth of experience and depth of field to your matter.

For several years and again this year, attorneys for our firm presented seminars for area realtors on issues dealing with issues involving title work, mechanics liens and similar topics. In March of this year, attorneys for the firm presented a seminar to area contractors and subcontractors on the new mechanics lien statute, how to protect themselves under that act and other topics essential to their success. The program was so successful that plans are being made to present the same information to their Homebuilders Association of Greater Peoria soon.
