Many buyers and sellers often wonder what a mortgage closing attorney does—other than conduct the closing. The closing attorney is responsible for many things throughout the closing process and performs many time-consuming tasks that facilitate a transaction from inception to closing. Instead of just signing many papers at closing, don’t you want to know what is exactly in those papers you are signing?
Remember, this is probably one of the largest purchases you will ever make in your life. A mortgage closing attorney will help you make sure you are protected.
If you are the property owner of waterfront land that is located on the banks of a river or stream, you have the right to use your land as you see fit. You also have the right to add a dock, anchor a boat, and use the property for swimming and boating. This property is known as riparian land. Our riparian rights attorneys can help you understand these rights. If your property has been threatened, you need an experienced attorney.

At Peterson Paletta Balice, we provide legal advice and representation to both commercial and residential landlords and tenants. We believe that careful drafting and review of a lease is a sure way to avoid disputes in the future.
A lease lays out the terms of the agreement including the amount of rent, the length of the lease, the right to renew or extend the lease, each party’s responsibilities with respect to the property, and more.
Before signing a lease, it is always our advice to have an attorney review the terms of the lease in order to protect your interests.
