Real estate lawyers handle the legal side of buying, selling, leasing and developing property. They draft and review contracts, resolve title problems, conduct closings and represent clients in disputes over boundaries, easements, construction defects and failed transactions.

In some states an attorney is required at closing; in others it is optional but valuable when a transaction is complex or something goes wrong.
