Real Estate Law

Building a Legal Web Presence for your Real Estate Law Firm

Despite threats that the “real estate bubble” has burst, when you look around The Carolinas, what do you see? New homes going up left and right, old homes being remodeled, and ever expanding business construction to accommodate both new businesses and new residents to the area.

The opportunities for real estate law firms are endless:

• Transactional work associated with home closings and commercial purchase and sales,
• Land use, zoning, and development
• Title problems, lien problems
• Construction contract law and municipal contracts,
• Employment law related to wage and hours violations and union concerns
• Construction defect cases
• Condo and homeowners’ association representation

Sophisticated Clients Are Attracted to Sophisticated Law Firms

Real estate is a fast-paced business. When people get to your law firm Web site, they need to be able to tell right away if you provide the service they need. That message needs to come across in the content and the design.

Before you start developing a Web site for your North or South Carolina real estate law firm, take some time to focus:

www.mellorlawfirm.com
www.daviesandgrist.com

What would be the ideal type of real estate work for your firm? Is it a mix of transaction and litigation?

• Are there new clients you’d like to be developing?
• What unique experiences and in-depth knowledge do your real estate lawyers possess?
• Are there related areas of business with little competition, a niche you could fill?

Real estate law firm marketing on the Web can be tremendously successful. What will happen if you suddenly get many more cases?

• Are you interested in high volume?
• Or high income clients at low volume?

It’s not about working hard; it’s about working smart. Can you use your Web site to accomplish real estate transactions more efficiently? Ask me about customizable forms and FirmSite Workspace, a secure, online collaborative workspace that allows you to organize and share information with your clients.
