The Importance of Hiring a Real Estate Attorney

Entering into a real estate transaction is a big step financially for most people. It is important to have someone involved in the transaction that is looking out for YOUR interests. The law office of May, Metzger & Zimmerman, LLP, has been serving Lancaster County clients since 1929. We understand real estate investments and work diligently to protect our clients' rights and interests. Contact our Lancaster County land use and zoning attorneys to discuss your real estate needs.

We are skilled in assisting clients with a variety of real estate law issues, such as:

  • Land use and zoning
  • Obtaining title insurance
  • Residential real estate closings
  • Commercial real estate transactions
  • Easements and rights of way
  • Real estate disputes

Land Use and Zoning

Our real estate law firm is competent in handling zoning issues. We assist clients who seek to start businesses on properties that are not currently zoned for the proposed use. We work to obtain zoning changes or special exceptions. We represent individuals at conditional use hearings.

Why hire a lawyer?

A real estate broker can assist you with real estate transactions. However, our firm offers exceptional value to the buyer or seller of property. We have extensive experience handling real estate issues. We are qualified to receive reduced rates on title insurance, and therefore we are able to provide legal representation through the transaction at no additional expense than would be charged by a title insurance company. If you are involved in a real estate matter, contact our Lancaster real estate lawyers for a consultation.
