Ryan is fantastic!

Emily and I recently selected Ryan as the attorney to help us purchase our new home. We were thrilled with the decision! Ryan’s approach set our minds at ease on what to expect with his services starting with him helping us draft an offer through explaining each part of the purchase process until we ...Closed on our new home. Additionally, he worked well with the team on the other side of our purchase and customized the Purchase & Sale Agreement to protect our investment. Throughout he was a pleasure to work with as he kept us informed of the latest back and forth on the transaction and he was in person with us on Closing day, again taking the time to simplify the explanation of each document to give us a sense of comfort in what we were initialing and signing. We’d recommend Ryan for any real estate transaction that you might need help getting done!

Highly recommend

Ryan has recently represented a few of my clients. Having owned a Century21 franchise for over 30 years, I have had numerous interactions with attorneys who have represented buyers, sellers and landlords. I would strongly recommend Ryan. He always goes above and beyond, is responsive to questions a...nd/or concerns, and is also very good at negotiating issues responding quickly to time sensitive matters.

Great experience working with Ryan

I would highly recommend Ryan, he has helped us with the closing documents for buying/selling real estate properties in three different occasions so far. He has been very responsive and easy to get a hold off, transparent about costs and the process and in all cases there was very little involvement ...needed on our side. At the same time he was pretty good at calling out and explaining potential issues with the properties and the contracts, such as for example calling out and working around potential title issues with our latest property.

Ryan Cunningham sets a high bar for quality customer service when it comes to Real Estate

I recently purchased a single family home and had retained Ryan Cunningham, Esq. of the David Marshall Dat, PC office for this purchase. Ryan was extremely knowledgeable about real estate. I could not have felt safer about signing off on documents regarding the purchase without him. He made sure th...at I was well protected throughout the process and translated all of the legal jargon to plain English for me. I was always told to "get your own lawyer" whenever I finally decided to buy my first home; Now that I purchased my first home alongside Ryan, I will tell everyone "DON'T buy a home if you didn't first retain Ryan". I am still beyond belief that I am a homeowner now and I could not have done it so seamlessly without Ryan Cunningham, Esq. representing me!

Thanks Oscar! It is very good to read that you felt safe, that your purchase is well protected and that my explanations throughout the process were clear. I appreciate your kind words. Congratulations again on your purchase!

Efficiently handled both my sale and purchase

Working with Ryan made what is typically a very stressful process much less so! He handled both the sale of my condo and purchase of my new house. His attention to detail ensured the P&S for my condo sale was rock solid. The purchase of my home was complicated because we were dealing with the former ...owner's estate. Ryan went above and beyond to ensure all the proper documents were in place for the closing. In fact, we were even able to close ahead of the originally scheduled date! Ryan was very responsive and helpful whenever I had questions or concerns. I'd highly recommend him.
