We believe that the depth of knowledge and the breadth of the experience of our real estate lawyers are virtually unmatched in the area. Senior Partner James R. Clifford, Sr., has been actively involved in real estate matters for more than 40 years. Lynn Caudle Boynton began working with Jim over 35 years ago when he mentored her as his law clerk. Our lawyers are widely recognized for possessing an in-depth comprehensive understanding of the entire spectrum of land use and zoning issues.
Our real estate department handles commercial real estate transactions, including contract negotiations, zoning and land use and land development, providing legal representation for complex real estate issues. We are also capable of using our real estate expertise to assist our estate planning clients with deed transfers to Revocable Trusts, therefore assuring our clients their Trusts are properly funded. We also facilitate deeds to Revocable Trusts for our client's out of state properties.
Attorneys' fees for real estate matters are based on individual client needs. Hourly billing, flat fee, and percentage fees are common, depending upon the nature of the work.
Lynn's real estate background enables her to easily re-title real property for a business purpose, for estate planning purposes and the funding of a trust that is part of an estate plan.
