My Attorney for Home Purchase & Closing

Mr. Fraser is an excellent attorney! He handled all matters relating to my home purchase & closing in a very professional manner, and kept me informed through out the process. When an issue needed attention, Mr. Fraser was very responsive, and he was able to resolve any issue that came up in a time...ly manner. I would highly recommend Mr. Fraser.

A successful real estate closing...finally!

What should have been a routine closing on my Sea Pines lot turned into a drawn-out affair with numerous delays and clashing egos. However, largely due to Denny's wisdom, patience and calm, the deal finally settled. His common sense approach was refreshing, and I greatly appreciated his willingnes...s and ability to "talk me down" on several occasions during the process. Although we never met face-face, I came to trust Denny's advice implicitly, and I never felt he had any agenda other than to meet my needs as efficiently as possible. I wish more attorneys were as gracious and ethical as Denny, and I would not hesitate to work with him again.

Exceptional Attention to Detail

I was referred to Denny Fraser for legal counsel pertaining to the dissolution of a partnership. The proficiency, expertise and guidance that Denny exhibited on my behalf to ensure that my interests (in a situation that mimicked a hostile takeover of my company, by partners), were recaptured and sec...ured by a no nonsense approach to the law. His protection of my business and interests was paramount to sorting through a tangled mess and remaining a point of strength during a tenuous, stressful time in a thriving and growing business. Denny Fraser's advice is thorough, as well as consistent and steady. Denny's honesty and integrity is genuine, choose this counsel and you will choose wisely.

The Best of Hilton Head

I have been using Denny for over 20 years here on the island for legal advice from Real Estate closings to help with tenant eviction and more ... He is straight forward and honest. Do not hesitate , Denny will work hard for you !

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • 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.
