Legal Dream Team

[Account Closed]

From listening to a number of BP podcasts, it is obvious that smart legal representation is a must. When starting out, what would you say are the essentials needed for legal advice? Real estate attorney, tax/estate planning attorney are the ones that immediately come to mind, but are there any others worth looking into and why?

John and Douglas are great attorneys.

I "vet" attorneys for my coaching clients.

I ask questions like:

Are you familiar with the following:

-Real estate brokerage laws

-Rehab contractor agreements (scope of work)

-Sub2 and land trusts

-lease options

-wrap around mortgages

-notes

-dodd frank

-safe act

-installment sales

-foreclosures

-what the Attorney Generals Office does not care for (eg foreclosure rescue programs)

-eviction processes

-joint venture agreements

-Reg D Securities

-private lender issues

Not 1 attorney can handle all of these, and it is my 30 year opinion that most re attorneys can only do traditional cash sales.
