We Can Protect Your Investments During Every Step, From Transactional Negotiations to Estate Planning.
Buying and selling real estate should be an exhilarating experience. When a transaction goes smoothly, you can almost guarantee that it will result in your significant gain. It could raise your credit score. It could build your net worth. You could gain real property that can be passed down to your heirs.
But as we all know, there are endless possibilities that can cause the transaction to go completely wrong. Your agent stayed by your side, helping you traverse the ruthless real estate market, but the real dangers tend to involve real estate law. Sure, your agent knows their way around the real estate market. However, it would be foolish to believe that your real estate agent is qualified to solve any legal issues that may come up.
The importance of a real estate lawyer in New York is insurmountable. Here, it is customary for both parties in a transaction to have their own attorney. Having legal representation throughout the process will allow you to have some peace of mind. Each step of the way, the lawyer has something to check. An in-depth title search during the initial process will save you a lot of heartache if the property has a giant lien against it. It could ultimately save you millions of dollars. It is New York City, after all. NYC is the most populated area in the United States. It has an expensive and unique real estate market, with complicated State requirements.
Do not navigate the complexities of the Greater New York real estate market on your own. You need representation from a firm like the Law Offices of Yuriy Moshes. We will fight for your interests every step of the way. Providing our clients with the utmost care and diligence is our top priority. In hiring a law firm, real estate experience in the NYC market should be the absolute top priority.
Why Turn to Our Real Estate Law Firm in NYC and NJ?
If you need a real estate law group, choose one thoroughly familiar with the specific needs and regulations of the property. New York is such an intricate real estate market. It is essential that you hire an experienced attorney with a reputable firm. Additionally, it is customary that both parties have their own representation. You do not want to be the legally disadvantaged and a vulnerable party if you can avoid it. This custom makes it even more likely that the other party will use contractual language towards their own benefit. If both parties have representation, then it is the lawyer’s responsibility to diligently review all agreements. Do not underestimate the value of hiring an established New York real estate litigation law firm.
New York City has vast amounts of real property. You have to be wary of dangers such as structural issues, lead paint, water exposure, rats and bed bugs, and faulty electrical wiring. Sellers will take advantage of people that are not local to the tri-state area, especially in New York City.
There are no State requirements for house inspections before selling, and the responsibility lands on the buyer. Being inexperienced in this area could be detrimental. Knowing which inspections should be done before buying New York real estate could be essential for your family’s health.
Another area that could cause confusion is the differences between one-family or multi-family. You could be thinking that you are buying a three-family house; in reality, it is a two-family house with a third section that does not meet State requirements. Someone that is unfamiliar with NYC real estate would not be able to distinguish the difference. As the buyer, you would be getting the very short-end of the stick because you overpaid and under-inspected. Do not get caught making rookie mistakes in this ruthless real estate market.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Should you get a real estate lawyer?
Q: What does a real estate law firm do?
Q: What states require a lawyer for real estate transactions?
Q: Can I use a real estate attorney instead of an agent?
For example, New York does not require home sellers to hire home inspectors, even though defects are supposed to be completely disclosed. The responsibility falls on the buyer to get the inspections done when they are interested in a property. The buyer and the seller already have very different needs, so the agent and attorney customs helps move the process along while ensuring client satisfaction on both sides.
Another quirk in New York law can be found in the offer and contracting rules. There are very stringent rules against binding oral contracts for property. It also has equally stringent rules for offers and contracts, where any written and signed offer could possibly create a valid contract. Without a lawyer and an agent present, navigating even the early negotiations would be a nightmare.
Q: How do real estate attorneys get paid?
Q: What questions should you ask a real estate attorney before hiring?
Ask the lawyer about their years of legal experience and in which practice areas. You should especially ask for clarifications on their experiences and specialties in real estate law. Ask what type of property cases they enjoy working on. Request the lawyer to summarize the types of cases they have had the most success with and ask if this success will translate to your case. Ask the lawyer if they could provide references towards their ability to handle your specific case and their abilities as a lawyer.
Be sure to get the lawyer’s fee structure for each service and to receive it clarified on paper. If the lawyer did not already explain this, ask how they will be keeping in contact with you and how often you will be updated. The lawyer should provide definite and realistic answers to these questions if they are a good lawyer. Do not let them give you vague answers for these questions.
The lawyer should clarify the risks involved with your action and the likely outcome of your case. If not at the initial meeting, the lawyer should be able to update you on these questions within a few days. Another thing the lawyer should thoroughly explain is each of the different ways to solve your problem, including any alternative options. If the lawyer does not do this, be sure to ask before hiring.

Hired Yuri to help me through coop purchase process. Yuriy and his staff answered all my questions promptly, I've had attorneys in the past that once paid would take their time and de prioritize your mails, etc..Not the case here. My initial purchase wound up folding week before scheduled closing date due to seller negligence. Almost a year later, I received same level of effort from Yuriy second time around, closed, and am very happy with professionalism and expertise provided.
