You can rest assured your in good hands

Over the years, my parents have entrusted Don with the purchase of at least four of their homes. When it came time to purchasing our first home, working with Don was a natural decision. Purchasing your first home can be a daunting and confusing process. But, Don and Diane did a great job to address o...ur questions and concerns, from pre-contract signing to the closing), in a timely, professional manner. I would recommend Don to anyone purchasing a home.

Even the professionals need a professional

Donald represented the bank several years ago when i refinanced my home and he did an excellent job then. So, when I sold my home, I asked him to represent me. Being a Licensed Real Estate Broker and a Mortgage Broker, I am very familiar with the process and I must tell you that Donald and his staff ...did a great job in bringing the deal to a closing.

Real estate closing

Working with Don and his team was a pleasure. I was selling a co-op apartment and needed an attorney to assist with the closing. I sat down with Don and he went over the process step by step. He provided me with the estimated costs and closing fees up front so I was prepared and educated about what w...as happening during the actual closing. I also communicated with his paralegal Diane as the closing date drew closer. She is wonderful. She addressed every question I had immediately and was on top of each task that needed to be done. She even reminded me of things to do, which kept me very organized. The closing went smoothly due to their diligence. I'd recommend them to anyone who needs representation.

I'm a Repeat Customer

Don is a "straight shooter" and gives you a few of all the legal angles. He looks to make you aware of the potential problem/challenge ...before you even knew there might be one. He helped me with my purchase...now sale and the next purchase.

Wills and sale of parents house

Mr. Lagrega was extremely competent in dealing with my elderly parents. They were already in an assisted living community. We were on "crisis mode". He traveled to them with his paralegal and prepared their will with a power of attorney,health care proxy while the family was there. You can only im...agine the emotions. He was so understanding. He completed all paperwork to perfection. Also, after some time, he represented our family in the sale of the house. He was patient,professional and really took an interest in our family. I would recommend him to anyone. Thank you Mr. Lagrega.

  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
