Best Real Estate Lawyer in West Palm Beach

Mr.James Brown is an amazing lawyer. I hired Mr. Brown for a real estate matter. Mr. James and his stuff were very responsive, well communicating, and closed my case successfully. I highly recommend Mr. James Brown.

Excellent!

Attorney Brown and his firm were transparent, personable, and thorough. He and Ruti (Legal Assitant) explained all of the facts of my case (some circumstances less favorable than others) without insult. I felt supported and defended throughout the process. Ruti's level of professionalism was nothing ...less than stellar! Undoubtedly, with the firm's commitment to client care and service, the case was resolved in our favor. It is for these reasons that I would recommend this firm to anyone in need of a Real estate Attorney. Thank you again, JBTeam, for all you do every day!

I Feel Good About James Brown

I first met James Brown when I was buying a property from one of his clients. I was so impressed that day, I knew I would be using his services in the future. I am a real estate investor with over 140 units, office buildings, and mobile home parks. He has done many closings for me, advised me... on doing 1031 exchanges, and has great business acumen. He takes the time to read every line of a contract himself and his attention to detail is impressive. On top of that, he has a top notch staff that responds immediately to my calls and emails. They have put together contracts for me, and handled everything from A to Z.......all at a very affordable price. He was even able to close a very important deal I had in only 9 days. My wife says he is the equivalent of a home town doctor who makes house calls. He has expertise, experience, and genuinely cares about the success of my endeavors. I highly recommend his services.

We wish we could give 6 stars!

James Brown is an amazing attorney and has the best staff in town! He has represented both us on our own real estate transaction (as our attorney when we purchased a home) as well as our company clients for title and escrow. He and his staff keep everyone informed throughout the process. We have work...ed with Mr. Brown and his staff on foreclosure defense, short sales, regular real estate closings, leases and trusts. He gives an honest opinion to allow the best decision to be made. We highly recommend Mr. Brown and his services - we wish we could give him a 6 star but this site only allows for 5!

My Attorney

James Brown has been our Attorney for many years. I was his good work and that of his excellent staff we were able to sell our house in West Palm Beach after we moved to Ocala, Fl.. He helped with our legal problems with many things both in W.P.B. and up here in Ocala. My husband and I kept him ev...en after we moved because he is just that kind of person that makes you comfortable and at ease. After my husband passed away he was there to help with any problems.
