A trusting and reliable support through the first time home purchase

I contacted her through my internet research who is a local for my first time home purchase. Ms. Smith promptly replied and jumped on to reviewing my accepted offer. She meticulously prepared notes for every document she reviewed and explained legal terms and proposed languages/texts for various requ...ests through the contingencies. Ms. Smith was available to my questions by emails, calls, and a couple of virtual meetings and was on top of all due dates and requirements I needed to meet through the process. When extra push and reminders were needed to deal with an unresponsive sellers’ agent, Ms. Smith quickly acted on my behalf and resolved relevant issues immediately. I highly recommend Ms. Smith to anyone who needs legal representation for real estate transactions. I am glad I decided to get her support. It gave me a piece of mind knowing that her expertise was there through my journey.

Owner

A life saver! Can’t recommend her enough! Very patient, bright, and articulate. She stood her (our) ground and we came out on top. I was very pleased with how she represented my case and her predictions and advisement were accurate and timely.

Exceptional service

Ms. Smith provided excellent service in our representation for Rental damages and reimbursements. She helped gather documents necessary to ensure our tenants paid for damages incurred during their lease. We received more than we expected.

Amazing

We hired Juliane to help us with a landlord/tenant issue. We rented a home that had a heavy pest infestation issue which was not disclosed to us. From the initial consultation I knew I wanted to work with Juliane she returned my call right away, was accessible and very knowledgeable about the laws. A...s a result, we were able to break our lease without penalty. She took a very stressful situation for us & gave us peace to move to our next home. I would definitely hire her again. Thank you!

Consistent Legal Services

I have used Mrs. Smith's services on a few occasions, and I am actually in the process of contacting her again on another matter. Her office provides consistent profesional service in a timely manner. However, more importantly, I feel that she is actually representing me, and not working both side...s.

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.
