Doing a FSBO (For sale by owner)

Hello BP fam!

I live in Northern California and I am currently in escrow as a seller. I did a FSBO and need help finding a good real estate attorney or should I even use one? Let me know your thoughts!

What makes you think you need an attorney, are you having a dispute? If you are already in escrow, it sounds like you have handled the purchase contract. Before I was an agent I did a FSBO using an escrow company and did not have a need for an attorney.

Do you have a good relationship with your escrow agent? If so I would ask your escrow agent if they have a recommendation for someone they have worked with in the past.
